WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Extension Home Management Specialist Oregon Stale University Is it apple polishing to call homcmaking an executive job? When you're up to your elbows in dishwater you may wonder what an executive is, anyway. Do you really count in this money - conscious world? A recent African visitor to the OSU campus said that one of the big problems in his underdeveloped country was that "the women didn't want anything." What music that would be to some American husband's ears! But think what this means. Without demand for things to be manufactured and sold, there aren't many jobs, people arc hungry, and living is large ly a matter of merely exist ing. You homemakers pack a wallop here in our land. Your wants dominate every consum er product made in America. If enough of you turn thumbs down on an item, they slop j making II. You, trie consumer, make this country tick.

Making the bleach. If you must bleach, use one of the dry perborate bleaches. If you want fast drying stretch socks, buy the regular weight rather than the bulky knits. Smart Homemakers Tell Us Here's a trick to keep wax paper from sliding when you use it as a substitute for a pastry board. First, wipe the work table with a damp cloth before you lay the paper on It. The paper will cling to the damp table top when you roll out the pastry. After washing and rinsing a drip-dry jacket, stuff the sleeves with terry hand towels. This helps sleeves to dry into shape and also short ens drying time. A mirror which has some or the backing chipped olf can be patched with aluminum foil at the back. Chipped spots will be less noticeable. Prospect Women Plan Salem Trip Social Events ' Women's News f V "S of ironing nocd a boos I GLASSES ON CREDIT! SjC Creen Sfamps COLUMBIAN OPTICAL CO.

But some say they "grow" with use; 'others have complaints about "pilling" or roughing up. Textile scientists who lest (hose new products say that stretch garments will go back into shape if washed often and properly dried. Repealed over-drying in a dryer will make the fibers brittle and in capable of springing back into shape. Turn strctchablcs in side out and wash only long enough to get them clean.

Measures Explained for Republicans Ballot measures to be voted on in the- coming November election were reviewed at the October meeting of Jackson County unit, Oregon Federa tion of Women's Republican clubs, held yesterday noon at Ping's Garden. Speakers were John Del lenback, Edward Branchfield and A. A. Dumas, three Re publican candidates for elec tion to the Oregon House of Representatives. Before the men began their review of the measures, copies of the Voters Information pamphlet com piled by the Oregon League of Women Voters were given each person attending, and Mr. Dcllcnback praised the league and the publication. Mr. Branchfield discussed Measure No. 1, which would bring about reorganization of Ihe Oregon militia, saying that it seems to be a neces sary piece of legislation. The League information sheet links Measures 2, 3 and 4, and Mr. Dcllcnback dis cussed these as a group. He declared that these measures are sound, and advised his lis teners to vote "yes" on all three. He stated that the meas ures which have to do with the state's debt limit, would not raise this limit but only change the formula for figur ine the debt limitation. The measures would permit these to be figured on the true cash value of property, and not on the assessed value, which is arbitrary and can be changed by the legislature, he ex plained. Branchfield Speaks Measure 5, having In do with stale courts, was ex plained by Mr. Branchfield who said he thought it should be passed, lie explained that the constitution now prom li lts enactment of special or lo cal laws regulating the prac tices in courts of justice, which sometimes results in ab surd situations. He mentioned probate work, saying it can now be handled in three dif ferent courts, and also pointed out that the number of judges is now keyed to population,, whether there is need or not. Discussing No. (i, concern ing dalyight saving lime. Mr. Dumas said that it should be supported unless citizens of Oregon wanted to perpetuate the contusion which has re sulted from part of the stale going on daylight saving tune each summer. Mr. Dumas stressed that it isn't a question of what Ihe vote rs want, but what they arc getting under present legislation. Mr. Dellenbaik joined him in this view, saying the meas ure should be p;issed. Mr. IVllciib.uk also dis cussed No. 7. having to do with the six per cent limita- Calendar CHienrtHr noth'r end n.'us (or the Micu'tv M'i'Mon i( TIt M.ul inlMinr iiiul In' Mil'iunlcd in wnunfi iinl rirnilhnc 1,11' the Sun Hrfv cililitMi m 1 p m Kiirtnv llr.ul. line Inl Hie wrrkly cnlnulet I " a in n! the dev nl publirMmn and Inr urc d.iv imm u a i m. tile dav brmte Hinlie.tlnn, - Bethel fill.

He pointed out that this piece of legisla tion is expressly for Jackson county, which has lost its tax base through failure to levy when county officials deemed such levies unnecessary. He urged his listeners to read the measure most carefully and said that while it was "tail ored" for this county, some be lieve that one necessary pro vision has been omitted and that for this reason, the voters should "hold off." The consti tutional limitation on the amount of tax which a school district, city, county or other local taxing district may levy without an election is now the highest levy made "in any three years immediately pre ceding," plus six per cent. This should be the "last three years in which such a tax was levied" according to Mr. Del lcnback. The league bulletin states, as an argument against Meas-1 ure 7, "It there is any possi bility of such a prohibition being needed to protect the counties against action by the legislature, Ihe prohibition should not be removed from the Constitution. Statutory protection is inadequate since statutes can be changed by the legislature. It would be better to defeat Measure 7 and lo submit the question of preser vation of a tax base at a later . dale." Measure Eight II was pointed out that Measure 8 has been taken from the ballot because of a legal irregularity and Mr. Branchfield discussed No. 9 which is a constitutional j amendment dealing with leg islative apportionment. The speaker again urged "careful and grave study" of the pro posal, although it would not immediately affect Jackson county. Initialed by a citizen's committee, the measure would change' Ihe present formula of representation in the stale legislature by adding Ihe ele in e n t of geographical repre sentation in the lorni of fixed districts, guaranteeing to each of :U) districts at least one rep resentative and to cacti of 22 districts at least one senator. Mr. Dcllcnback said that he supports No. il. pointing out that because of changes in population eastern Oregon has been moving away from "close representation." He said that under 1 ho new sys tem, eitiens would tie given representation for "areas of interest" as well as popula tion, lie declared that the amendment would "take care of the luUire" and Mould pre veil! an increase ot "lop sided ' represent.-!! ion.

Oppose Ten All three candidates spoke in opposition to Measure 10, which would repeal the school district reorganization laws of the stale. They agreed that to pas's No. 10 would be a "step backward" in the support of public education in the state. Mrs. E. A. Littrell presided. She appointed Mrs. John Lynch, Mrs. Everett Faber and Mrs. George Hammond to the nominating committee. Announcements were made concerning a plan to arrange a large number of coffees on Tuesday, October 23, during a television program stressing the candidacy of Sig Unander for the United Slates senate.

Revised Prenatal Care Bulletin Now Available A major revision of Prena tal Care, the children's bu reau's pioneer publication on maternal care first issued in 1913, has just been issued. Prenatal Care was last re vised in 1949. The new 1962 edition puts added stress on the extent to which having a baby is a family affair. It points out that every member, including both young chil dren and grandparents, have something to contribute, to the baby's development as an individual. In a forword to the publica tion, Mrs. Kalherine B. Oct tinger, bureau chief, stales, "Through the years, the chief aim of this pamphlet has been to point out the importance of medical care during preg nancy. Early editions stress ed the care an expectant mother should receive before her baby was born. "Great advances have been made in our knowledge about pregnancy, childbirth, and in fant care. This increased knowledge makes having a baby safer today by far than ever bofore." More Resources The new publication points out that today's parents have many more resources than ever before to turn lo, not only to have their children safely but to enjoy their ba bies. It stresses the fact that pregnancy is the time to give the baby his good start in life and that if parents take ad vantage of these modern re sources they can make "the coming of your baby a truly rewarding experience for you and your family." j The new edition of Prenatal ; Care . gives the expectant i mother advice on her food j and her health, clothing and . personal hygiene, and de-, scribes what she will need to ; know about her new-born i baby and his needs. It also stresses the importance of good medical care for the ' mother during her formative ; years. j Prenatal Care was written by Muriel W. Brown, special-j ist in Parent Education, di-i vision of research, under the direction of Dr. Marian M. Crane, assistant director, di vision of research. Dr. Robert E. L. Nesbitl Jr., professor and .chairman, de partment of obstetrics and gynecology, Albany Medical college of Union university, Albany, N. Y., gave obstetric guidance.
