How-To-Save Article
Wins Mrs. Thrift Title
By PATRICIA McCOHMACK
United Press International
NEW YORK Now hear this:
You can be happy though thrifty.
Once you know the secret, you
can pinch pennies without look
! ing like Scrooge and feeling like
i broken glass.
I Mrs. Morris D. Jennings, 01
ney, 111., has a title to reinforce
her right to utter such a preach
ment. Mrs. Jennings just has been
named "Mrs.. Thrift-Wise of
1963," a title won via an essay
contest on thrift sponsored by
the American Mothers Commit
tee. Most folks, says she. make a
mistake when they think only
of money when the word "thrift"
crosses the brain.
Defines Thrift
Mrs. Jennings said thrift con
sists not only in saving money,
but also lime and energy.
"Save time and your own life
will be enriched because you
will have time to do some of
the things you enjoy doing," she
noted.
"Save energy and you save
health. Save money and you
smooth the family's pathway for
today and all the tomorrows."
For her winning essay, Mrs.
Jennings gets 500,000 plaid
stamps. A second prize, 250.000
stamps, goes to Mrs. Carolyn
M. Dyment of Laconia, N.H.; a
third prize, 100,000 stamps, was
won by Mrs. Richard L. Hake,
of Westfield, N.J.
Here are some of Mrs. Jen
nings' family-economics lips:
Buying the cheapest article
is not always the most economi
cal. Buy the best quality your
budget allows, then live up to
the adage that proper care
means longer wear.
Have goals. Reaching them
may take a long time, but hav
ing them gives you something to
work for.
Study Ails
Once a week, sturlv the gro
cery ads in the paper. Take ad
vantage of the sale items, if you
need them.
Among money saving tips cit
ed by Mrs. Dyment was one sug
gesting that you bake a cake
or pie while a roast is roasting
or browning to save fuel. Other
ideas from Mrs. Dyment:
and Winter
ALE
MEDFORD
, Put window shades all the
way up on the sunny side of the
house to save fuel in winter.
i When purchasing home fur
nishings, buy the. best quality
when on sale.
I Cut hubby's, children's and
! your own hair. Give yourself
home pcrmanents.
I Buy car insurance from the
farm bureau which sells only
to safe drivers at a lower cost.
Mrs. Hake's money-stretching
j hints include one aimed at get
ting more mileage out of the
vacation dollar.
"Although we are not camp
i ers," she said, "we reduce the
cost of traveling with a family
of seven by cooking meals along
the way.
"An ice chest, Coleman stove
and paper dishes are the only
investment needed."
Mrs. Hake also assigns daily
and weekly chores .to each of
the five children to "save
time and energy and money."

Mrs. J. S. Richardson, pro

torical meaning of Christmas
greenery. Mrs. Willed had a
display ot plants which she used
to illustrate her speech,
Some of the facts and legends
presented by Mrs. Willett in
cluded customs of ancient times.
Evergreens, which flourish
when all else is brown and dead,
are symbols of enduring life,
and consequently they have al
ways been associated with mid
winter festivals, the speaker
said.
In this country the use of
plants and flowers during the
sacred season has been a popu
lar custom. Fir, spruce, holly
and yew are used on the con
tinent of Europe. In England,'
holly, laurel, mistletoe, and
rosemary are favorite Christ-j
mas decorations, Mrs. Willett
said. The poinscttia plant is pop
ular in Mexico and in the United
States.
The laurel, an ancient sym
bol of triumph, is used for
Christmas decorations to pro-i
claim the victory over sin and
death which Christ's birth sig
nifies, the speaker declared. 1
The modern custom of hanging
laurel wreaths outdoors as a
friendly greeting comes from an
old Roman practice. The wreath
was their symbol of victory,
glory, joy, and celebration. It
is the belief that the Irish im
migrants introduced the use of
the Christmas wreath in Amen-
Many Legends
Legends about the numerous
plants have them assnciated
with Christ's birth, with sin,
with victory over death, anil
with health. The Greeks regard
