Hair Curling Story New York -rtJPD In 1906, the first permanent wave ma chine was demonstrated in London. The machine, with its overhead electrical cords and complicated instrument panel, appeared so frightening that the inventor had trouble get ting a model - to demonstrate it. Women San Francisco Barbara Mitchell, 3, flashes a smile at Dr. Richard Dixon after he sent a high-pilched tone through the headphones she wears, and prepares to place round wooden plaque on peg, signifying she has "heard" the tone. The reason for all Although operated on a smaller . scale, the Medford Junior Service league's kin garien for deaf children is similar to the San Francisco Hearing and Speech center. The kindgarten board is considering plans to purchase one of the newest electronic Planning Key Corvallis - You don't have to be a scientist to serve good meals, but you can't trust to chance or spur-of-the-moment selection of foods, an Oregon State college home economist emphasizes. Mrs. Beth Bailey McLean stresses the importance of a "plan" for good family meals. A general plan for all the meals for a week can save you time, work and money. Furthermore, it will help you avoid monotonous meals, Mrs. McLean says. Now professor of foods and nutrition at Oregon State col lege, Mrs. McLean is author of the section on "Planning Meals for the Family" in the new Foods Yearbook of the U.S. department of agricul ture. She was formerly direc tor of home economics for Swift and Company for 20 years and is author of five books and hundreds of maga zine articles and booklets on foods and meal planning. The first step in planning meals is to decide what foods and what amounts of foods are needed to make a nutri tionally adequate and inter esting, pleasant diet for each member of the family, Mrs. McLean advises.. . ..... . .; : :. Money No Guide The amount of money spent for food does not indicate how well the food has supplied the nutritional needs of the family, she adds. The econom ics of food purchasing is a broad subject and the impor tance of a wise expenditure of the food dollar must not be underestimated. ' When you set up a meal pattern, you must decide how much you can afford to pay for prepared and partially prepared food, Mrs. McLean points out. Women who have heavy demands on their time and energy, outside and in side the home, may find the use of prepared foods a reas on for paying a higher price for some food. A tentative food plan and a shopping list for the week ahead will be helpful in buy ing food, she says. At the store, the plan may be revised to take advantage of a good buy as long as the substitu tion is made within the same food group. A lamb roast might be a better bargain than the plan ned pork roast. There may be a sale on apples which could be used in place of the can ned fruit on the shopping list. Carrots may be plentiful and VICTOR SAYS: For so much style for so little money... Sea MR.

November ' 4-5 Service league members are giving The Follies at the Craterian theater to raise funds for the school. to Good Family Meals sweet potatoes high priced. Consider Supply While shopping, consider the supply of food for unex pected or unplanned guests. It is wise to have two or three menus in mind for quick preparation or a trick or two for extending a family meal to include an extra person. Canned and frozen foods, pre pared mixes, and other con venience foods can be part of the meal extender plan. To keep away from stereo typed meals and to give new zest to menus, include at least one different food or one new recipe each week, Mrs. Mc Lean suggests. Foreign foods may be included to broaden and diversify the menu. New recipes can be devel oped too, by giving a. familiar food dish a new appearance or flavor. Veal chops are good when seasoned with dill, thyme, or sour cream " in stead of tomatoes, for exam ple. Variety is the keynote of food meal planning, Mrs. Mc Lean believes, and the lower the food budget, the more in genuity is required to cook and combine foods to avoid monotonous meals. A varia tion in cooking : methods of the different foods may help. Avoid using all fried foods, boiled foods or baked foods in the same meal. Change the method of cooking a food Plastic Baby Bottle Intrigues Russians Moscow (DPD A plastic baby nursing bottle drew as many curious stares and ques tions as almost any other item displayed at the American ex hibition in Moscow. Many of the Russian moth ers - and father, too - who stared at, handled and pinch ed the bottles appeared skep tical when informed that such bottles were commonplace in American homes. A spokesman for the Davol Rubber Co., of Providence, R. I., which furnished the bottles for the exhibit, said a check of Moscow's largest stores found no such bottles for sale, and very few glass, nursing bottles. It was explained most Rus sian mothers nurse their ba bies themselves and bottles enter the picture only when their infants become ill and are taken to a clinic. Then formulas are offered in steri lized glass bottles. Social from meal to meal. Potatoes and eggs can be prepared in a number of ways to make them appear and taste differ ent. Guest meals should be in key with the family pattern of living. A few, well-chosen, attractive good foods served with calmness and ease are to be preferred to a display of many foods, the home econo mist believes. An informal buffet, tray service, kitchen meal or guest participation meal may be more appreciat ed and enjoyed than a banquet served at a formally set table. The success of a company meal depends on the hospi- tality that prevails in the home more than on the num ber of dishes or the elabor ateness of preparation or service, Mrs. McLean says.

About 46 calories . -io rr. .Ilea Events Art Show Attendance Is Large A , large number of Rogue valley residents interested in contemporary art availed themselves of the opportunity to see Eugene Bennett's latest works in a show held Sunday. More than 100 persons visited his studio on South Grape street during a three-hour period in the afternoon. Many of the works, which crowded the walls of the small studio, are to be sent away for exhibits in Ashland, Portland, Salem and Klam ath Falls within coming months. Unable to make a de cision about which to show, the artist at length decided to hang them all and hope that visitors to the studio would not be disturbed by the closeness of the works. While some of the large, more dominant works, would be more effective when hung in a less crowded space, others seemed to be favored by the proximity of similar pieces. This was particularly true of the small, mosaic like paint ings with which Mr. Bennett has been engrossed in recent months and which are being received with great favor and praise. . There is much in Mr. Ben nett's artistic efxort to praise. There i's scope and breadth, as well as infinite variety, in his work. Visitors to the show Sunday saw some large paint ings with violent contrast one of black and flame red which he used to convey the impact of a forest fire at night. They also saw the soft, melt ing pinks and lavenders found in a blooming rock garden in the spring. Some of his mosaic-like pieces are combina tions of many tones of yellow and green, or varying blues; others are entirely in grey or brown. Some of the small paintings give an impression of exact ness and detail; the large ones J have sweep and .strength. He worss wuu on pigiueiiL in jus pure form, without mixing, or with bits of enamel; he em phasizes paintings' with frames of many materials. He uses the traditional can vas, or stark white bond paper or masonite. The masonite, covered first with a flat white, Mr. Bennet uses for paintings which are inspired by shapes and forms such as found by looking at the end of a stack of lumber, by a glimpse of rocks and stones in a highway cut en route to Crater Lake, or the patterns left in the soil when the water in a puddle evaporates. Mr. Bennett's paintings are for the most part completely abstract, but they are not aim less or empty. To this artist, abstract painting is a simplifi cation, a refining of nature and of ideas, a reducing of these to a purer form. Mr. Bennett's abstract paintings reveal that he has ideas, and the talent to express them in the form he has chasen. To see such a collection as he had in his studio Sunday brings plea sure, enjoyment and richness into the life of the viewer. O.S.

Chicago a? 1 VL2- Typical American Couple Visits President's Home By ROSE McKEE Washington-A young Amer ican couple visiting the White House for the first time, spied a detail that reminded them of their own home. "The building is beautiful but look at the window frames -they need painting," com mented William E. Feil as he walked along the East Wing to enter the Executive Man sion. He added in a tone of surprise, "I guess they have the same problem we do at home. But it can't be a ques tion of money-we surely have provided enough tax dollars." The Feils, who live in Cleve land, were among husband-and-wife teams from St. Paul, Omaha,. Memphis, New Or leans, San Diego, Spokane and other cities who were given a tour of the White House while in Washington for the recent Family Conference on Housing. For two days the nearly 100 delegates had discussed housing likes and dislikes at the National Housing Center and now they were seeing the one home all Americans own in common. A reporter accom panied the Feils to find out what a touring couple thinks of the White House. Mr. Feil, an electrical en gineer, had his second sur prise as he walked along a glassed-wall corridor that gave him a view of a "nice formal garden." He exclaimed, "With all our electrical tools, I see they are still using hand clip pers!" He referred to a man working at the edge of the garden. Liked China Like most of the women, Mrs. Feil could have spent a much longer time in the china room, with its collection of dishes ' bought by Presidents over the years. The big coffee cup in the Madison china caught Feil's eye. He said: "Look at the size of that cup. Madison was a man after my own heart. He liked a lot of coffee ... He could swim in that . . ." Mrs. Feil had read about the East room but she was unprepared for it. "Oh, I'm just amazed," she said. Asked what amazed her, she explained, "The elegance." A second later she said, "Peo ple speak of castles and pal aces in Europe but this! I've never seen the' castles and palaces but could they be as elegant?" ' "This is opulence without being blah," he husband said. Their eyes swept the magnifi cent crystal chandeliers of the white and gold ballroom with its huge gilt mirrors and lemon-gold damask drapes at the big windows as a guide told of the weddings, funerals, and receptions that have been held in the 80 by 40 foot room. Mr. Feil liked the Green room with its comfortable looking chairs because, he said "it has the look of being lived in." This is the room to which President Ei senhower and his male guests retire after a state dinner. Visit Red Room The Feils admired the rasp berry silk damask on the Sizes A-D; 32-42 Mm CHARMODE NU-BACK FOUNDATION Only Embroidered nylon sheer cups with Dacron leno elastic band for comfort.

O'MARA, OUR CHARMODE FIGURE CONSULTANT dad,' J Roabuek walls of the Red room, but apparently with their three small children in mind, they indicated they did not covet the rich wall covering. "It's definitely not some thing from which you can sponge off fingerprints," Mrs. Feil commented. The Feil children are Scott, 7, Kurt, 3, and Micheal, five months. The Red room is the one to which Mrs. Eisenhower takes women guests after a state dinner. The Blue room surprised Mrs. Feil. It was smaller than she had expected. But she thought that the oval room with its blue -silk walls and antique white furniture uphol stered in blue and gold, was particularly lovely. The Feils and others in their party were impressed, too, with the state dining room, with its soft green pan eled walls, massive chandelier and throne-like chairs. Mrs. Feil thought Mrs. Eisenhower must be a good arranger, how ever, to have worked out a seating for the 99 who sat , down at the recent Khru shchev dinner. Even with the use of an E-shaped table, Mrs. Feil said, it must have taken some figuring to seat so many. Visiting the White House, the Feils and others in their party agreed, was an emo tional experience of the im pact of 150 years of U.S. his tory, which suddenly are brought "so close to one." The Feils, who are gradu ates of Toledo University, have a ranch style home in suburban Cleveland, with a living room that contains a dining el, a kitchen, utility room, three bedrooms, one bath and a garage. ' . Theirs is not a particularly large home-but they do not have to share any of it with sightseers. Mr. Feil, grateful for the opportunity to visit the White House, nevertheless commented thoughtfully as he walked from the grounds, "In a way, it is something of an imposition to ask a man (the President) to surrender, a good part of the time, one floor of the house he lives in."
