But she has never forsaken her original conception of how an agency should be run. Her firm's reception room look like a large foyer in a plush apartment. "I have tried to make it have the look of a salon," she said. "I want it to be like walking into my living room." Counselors The volume of business is so great she employ several counselors who specialize In various areas, but she (till In sists on talking, at least brief ly, to every applicant who comes to the agency. This may mean SO talkathon a day. She lay with a smile, "I m fast with words." Her first concern i to put applicant at ease. ' People are very nervous, very upset when they are job hunting. They are on the de fensive." Although she fills all sort of Jobs, ahe prefers handling applicants in creative fields such as arllsts, writers, adver tising people and even poets, One of the room in her of fice suit is decorated with woodblock done by an artist she handled. She could not place him so she bought some of hi work herself. Appearance After 23 years In the bust' ness of finding Jobs for other people, she is convinced the most Important single factor in determining who gets a particular Job is the appli cant' appearance-"manner of dress, manner of speech." "Communications, the abil ity to express onself both or ally and on paper, is second," she continued. "Then comes talent, knowledge and ability. "It's also very important for a Job applicant to be cour teous not merely to the inter viewer but to his secretary, the receptionist and everyone else in the office," she said. 'More times than not the secretary has a great deal to say about who is hired," the explained, "And too many men think it Is beneath them to be courteous to a secretary." She also advised against the hard sell. "Leave them want ing more," she said. Cherry Pickle Is Developed By OSU Staff Corvallls - A new sweet spicy pickle made from Ore' gon'a sweet cherries is being test marketed in Western Oregon as a possible new use for Oregon brined cher ries. The first "pickle with i built In handle," cherry pickles are pitted and stems left on making them a nat ural "finger food." The new appetizers were developed by Oregon State university food scientists In cooperation with the Willamette Cherry Grow ers' association. Cherry pickles are golden in color, dclii.-iou.sly crisp and combine well with any foods i now commonly eaten with sweet pickles. An OSU stu dent test panel rated them very highly. In the last few years. Ore gon has produced record size cherry crops with most of the crop being brined and then manufactured into maraschi no cherries. The process for manufacturing maraschi no also was developed by OSU food scientists. Sweet cherry pickle can be procesa-, ed with much of the same i equipment and processes r qulred for maraschino, add : OSU workers. Surveys show that shop, pers spend an estimated S127 million a year for all kinds of pickles, that they favor a bite size pickle, and that chil-. dren are some of the biggest j pickle-eaters.

(Knackstedt photo) Decorating Advice For Newlyweds New York.-IUPU-When turn ishlng that first "loverly" love nest, plan prudently. One of the perennial prob- lems that comes up In decorat ing - whether It's on a shoe string or with unlimited means, a one-room apartment or a six-room house-Is when to budget and when to splurge. A good philosophy to fol low, advises Modern Bride magazine, Is to use a "first things first approach. To start, make three lists of furnishings: musts for liv ing, nice for livability, and wonderful if you can afford them. In the "musts for living" category, list basic furniture, lamps, floor coverings, table ware, linens, cooking equip ment, and cleaning parapher nalia. Accessories At the very top of your nice for livability" list go ac cessories. These put the finish ing touch on any decorating scheme, and, like a signature on a letter, they make your room indelibly yours. . And the best part about ac cessories is that they can be anything; plants, a print you especially like, some trivets you found in a thrift shop, baskets or samples of native art you brought home 'rom your honeymoon. . Pictures add a great amount of warmth to a room. But do more than just hang one pic ture here and there. i Try a wall arrangement of peintings, pr 1 n t s, sculpture, and whatever else takes your fancy. Remember that a huge colored ashtray perks up a corner table. ' For many young couples, the third category-"wonderful if you afford them"-may have to wait awhile. But it's always nice to have some thing to dream about, isn't it? Paintings , Commissioned For Exhibit Twelve paintings, all done by Mr. Robert G.
