Y. - IUPD - Every one knows that babies are costly, but here's something that may.1 come as a surprise. Girl babies are cheaper than boy babies. Many young couples who are having their first child i usually guide themselves by the old nousenoia ruie uiai a boy baby costs less because he requires less fancy frills, cute decorations and extra clothing -J than a little girl. "" But not so, says Louise Archbold, who did quite a bit of research on the prob lem working on her master's degree at the State College of Home Economics at uorneu University. Arrivals Surveyed Miss Archbold surveyed the arrival of 50 "first bundles of heaven" here and found they cost a toltM of $33,834. That, she said, broke down to an average of S678 per baby, in cluding gifts, medical and hospital insurance, what the expectant mother buys -or makes. Thus, for example, an even 7 pounder (babies usually weigh-in at first in fractions) would be worth almost S97 a pound. Miss Archbold turned to current mail order catalogue prices to figure the dollar value of infant goods and fur nishings, plus mama's mater nity outfits. She also counted up the usual gifts, borrowed cribs and things the expectant parents - frequently, a moth er-to-be who knits - makes at home. The average dollar outlay per boy. she found, broke down to: $79 purchased; S133 gifts; S31 borrowed; S12 home-produced. On that basis, a girl costs a little less, or about $235 Miss Archbold said she can't explain why.

Toys led the special gifts received by babies, she said but there were exceptions. Gifts of Practical Nurse In her research, Miss Arch bold found one infant - or new mother - who enjoyed a gift of the services of a prac tical nurse for two weeks. There also was a baby who received a heifer from his grandparents. "My fathev's hobby is farm ing," the baby's mother told Miss Archbold. "Every time he learns of an addition to the family-to-be he selects one of his choice calves and fattens same." The mother said that the parents can either leave the animal on the farm for the child or have it sent to mar ket. "We chose the market and the baby received a check for the amount it brought," she said. "However, all is not lost when the money is spent When the baby is five years old he, personally, will re ceive a heifer from grandpa." Woman Sentenced To Penitentiary Salem d'PIl Mrs. Carrol Irene Hankel, 46, of Salem was sentenced to 10 years in the Oregon State Penitentiary Monday for the July 18 slay ing of her friend, Helen Sarah Ped. Mrs. Hankel earlier plead ed guilty to a reduced charge of manslaughter. At a pre-sentence hearing before Circuit Judge Val Slo per. Mrs. Henkel testified that the slaying followed an all day drinking party in the St. Paul are. MrsrPed's body was found near the Wheatland ferry area the morning following the slaying.

He said Americans now can buy three times as much food for an hour of work as 1916, the year self-service was introduced. Figures released by the association showed that a basket of food that could be bought for $8.60 today would have cost $9.12 in 1952. Food chains with four or more stores have accounted for about 40 per cent of total food sales for the last 30 years. Mass distribution, Marcus sorted, has resulted in Amer icans eating much better than a generation ago. But he add ed that we are actually eating less in terms of pounds of food. Stabilizing Effect Mass distribution is having a stabilizing' effect on econom ic downswings, according to Claude B. Edwards, president of Alpha Beta Food Markets, Inc. He cited the 1954 and 1957 recessions when factory employment fell from 9 to 10 per cent while personal in come dipped only slightly. He explained that employ ment in distribution and serv ices is likely to remain fairly steady during a recession. Payrolls in these industries in effect provide a cushion and a stimulant wnicn dampen the wide' fluctuations in na tional income and push de mand for durable goods back to normal much more quickly.

The Family Council Editor's N'otet The Kanilly Cuuncll consuls of a Judge, a psychia trist, three clergymen, three editors and a women's editor. ach article is a summary of an actual caia history- The Council reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible aeencies and counselors Alice R. - I want my nose done over. I could be beauti ful. Mr. G.R. - She's beautiful now. Why look like everyone else? Alice R. - I can't convince my parents how important it is to me to get my nose re modeled. I'm 19 and, to them, I'm gorgeous. But to me I'm Miss Schnozzola. My other features are good and if it weren't for being all nose I could change my hairdo and wear exciting hats. Now I'm limited to styles that, in the words of the fashion col umns, lead the eye away from the nose. But the deeper reason is my self-consciousness and un happiness. Ever since I was a child I felt nobody saw any part of me except my nose. I haven't been to a plastic surgeon yet. I'd rather go with my mother. But if she and my dad continue to pooh-pooh the idea and try to talk me out of it, I'll go alone and figure some way to swing it. It would make me a different person. Mr. G.R. - Alice is just look ing for trouble. She doesn't know enough about surgery to let well enough alone. We've seen some botched jobs come out of the plastic surgeon's offices. The boys and girls wind up looking worse instead of better. It would be different if her health were at stake. But this is just vanity, a whim. She s Eisenhower Plans To RentSpaceon College Campus Gettsburg, Pa. - (UPll - Pres ident Eisenhower will work from an office on the campus of Gettsburg college after he leaves the White House on Jan. 20, according to informed sources. Eisenhower has decided to rent space in the unoccupied home assigned to College President Willard S. Paul, a former World War II com rade-in-arms, to serve as his headquarters. Paul is living elsewhere in Gettysburg. Under the so-called presi dential pension law, the chief executive is entitled to $50,- 000 a year in federal funds to pay office salaries and rent. The General Services Admin istration handles the house keeping details. Few Miles Drive The President's office will be a few miles drive from his Gettysburg farm and only a few blocks from the heart of this historic civil war city, the sources said. Eisenhower already has said he will make Gettysburg his permanent base once he leaves the executive mansion although he has made it clear he also will do some travel ing in the years ahead. The President obviously will require an office, how ever, if only to handle the heavy flow of correspondence he is sure to receive even after his successor is installed. One possible office would be a glassed-in addition over a two-car garage at the college president's house. But some sources said another section of the building would be converted into office space for Eisenhower's use. Paul, wartime commander of the 26th infantry division and a staff officer under Ei senhower in Europe, became president of the college in 1956. Rockets To Leave Colored Trails Washington-OIPII -The Fed eral Space Agency hopes to launch at dusk today two ex- j perimental rockets that will j leave bright orange-yellow vapor trails visible along the East Coast from Maine to Florida. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said it would conduct high altitude sodium vapor experi ments from its Wallops Island, Va., station. The agency said, however, that the launchings were de pendent on clear weather along the Atlantic Coast be cause scientific data would be obtained by optical means. PROMOTE!" First Lt. Donald D.

Lieutenant McLaughlin is son of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Mc Laughlin, 3384 Jacksonville highway, Medford, a.d the husband of the former Susan Barnes, 2895 Hillcrest rd., Medford. a good-looking girl, if I must say so myself, even if she has my nose. It's the family nose and it's never been a handi cap to any of us, as far as I can see. All the girls got husbands, and all the boys made their mark. Let her concentrate on her education and develop her personality. She'll be so at tractive no one will notice her nose. The Council: Mr. R. should agree to having Alice consult an accredited plastic surgeon ; for a professional opinion and ! decision. As a matter of ethics, . these physicians probe for the i reasons behind the desire for change, and they usually turn down patients who come out of whim or emotional illness, j Surgery is always a serious i undertaking and when it's cosmetic rather than restora tive or reparative, one has some choice in the matter. To day almost any physical attri bute can be changed. The question is: should it? Alice's longing may turn out to be completely valid. An operation would not make her a different person, of course, but it might help the person she really is come through more clearly. Nature plays unaesthctic tricks and while Alice may have her father's nose, which looks fine on her father, she may have her mother's dainty face. On the other hand, she may be obsessed with looking like everyone else and ignoring the fact that, from an artistic point of view, her nose makes her face interesting, distinc tive and perhaps aristocratic. Does she want to look assembly-line or custom-made? The real criterion is Alice's mental health. If it's in good shape a plastic surgeon will discuss the pros and cons of a change. Otherwise he'll in sist that she have psychother apy first, because a psycho neurosis will not be cured with a new nose. Mr. R.'s objections, while loving and typical, aren't to the point. Surgical techniques in this field have been highly refined by now, so that the degree of success is extremely high. And if it s vanity that s pushing Alice, one might re mind Mr. R. that vanity is sometimes a wholesolc moti vation. It can indicate inter est and pride in putting for ward one's best self. As to getting a husband, that's not what noses are for! They're to complete a face. If, in addition, Alice's nose can be one that pleases her (whether the old or a new one), a block will be removed and the real Alice can func tion. (Coopyright I960, General Feature! Corp.)
