WORK SMARTER NOT HARDER By BERNICE STRAWN Oregon State University Tools were invented by man down through the ages to release body energy and avoid mental fatigue. Mind plus body plus tool equals work done. It's obvi ously easier to change the tool than the other parts of this formula. Why not take a second look at your tools. A long handled dust pan will save stooping. Do you cut out your sewing on the floor? Work on a table and save your back. Is it true what they say about teen-agers? Do they take less YrekaClub Honors Past Presidents YREKA Past presidents of the Soroptomist Club of Yreka were honored at a recent lunch eon in Colony House. Mrs. Al bert Wcdin presided. In observance of Founders Day the history of the club was given. The first Soroptomist Club was formed in Oakland, Calif., 42 years ago and since nas become an international group. As the history was read, each president was presented a cor sage. Miss Ruth Barklow was the first president of the local group which was charted in August, 1959. That year a din ner dance was given to raise funds and since then has been an annual event. Beginning in June, 19H0 the club has awarded a scholar ship to the College of the Sis kiyous to a senior in Yreka High School. The first winner Janice Truelove. Successive winners have been Miss Vivian Slandlcy, 1SM51 ; Miss Ann Carter, 12 and Miss Tern Ann Mc- Kinnis, 19K). Group Growing Mrs. John Cawley was the second president and the club continued to grow. She was ap pointed to the regional educa tion committee and still is serv ing with this group. During the term of the third president, Miss Lillian Pettce, a long range project was sel ected, a Senior Citizens Home. The fund started with $100 and by the end of the year amount ed to $500. All previous service projects were continued and $100 was donated to a local hospital fund. The club partic ipated in a nationwide citizen ship award started by the Sorop tomist Foundation. Miss Sha ron Bray, Yreka, was a winner. Miss Doris Young was the fourth president and during her year the Senior Citizens Home fund grew to $1,400. A con tribution was made to the American Field Service and Miss Patty Stewart was the high school senior who won the citizenship award.

As more mothers work outside the home, more young sters take on housework, meal preparation and planning. Even in homes where mother isn't working, today's teen-agers are active helpers." "A survey conducted in part of the state of Washington showed that over a fourth of the boys helped with housework, meal preparation, and washing dishes." "The percentage of girls help ing was much higher, with only 10 per cent escaping housework. Eighty-four per cent helped with meal preparation and washing dishes. Teen-agers home activ ities are not limited to cooking, housework and dishes, but this is the major activity." Water spots on windows after lawn spraying are often hard to get off. The chemicals in the water vary in different local ities, so what works in one place may be a failure in another. Some women tell us they use a commercial rust remover. others report success with a cop per cleaner or soap filled scour ing pnds that you use on pots and pans. In several instances, where the spots are due to hard water minerals, water softener does the trick.
