Nu trition Consultant for the Oregon Dairy Council in Portland presented a two- hour Nutrition Workshop Wednesday at the Nyssa Ele mentary School multi-pur pose room for teachers from Annex, Adrian and Nyssa. Until now, nutrition edu cation in the classroom has been, at best, sporadic. When nutrition was taught at all. emphasis was placed on rote memorization of facts. Little or not attention was paid to the vitality and excite ment food holds for all of us. FOOD...Your Choke, a step-by-step approach to nu trition education is the exciting new answer to the old boring classroom presen tation. This learning system consists of three sequential programs at the elementary level, from kindergarten thr ough sixth grade. The tea chers learned that they may choose a variety of participa tion levels for their classes. During the informative work shop they learned how to prepare and utilize FOOD... Your Choice. Contestants are judged on scholastic achievement-lea dership; poise-personality and appearance. There is no talent or swim-suit competi tion. The Director in making the announcement emphasized that the participation of the University of Portland was to encourage teen interest in scholastic activities-leader ship and college environment The Pageant theme ia "What’s Right About Ame rica” and a $1,000 cash scholarship ia awarded the National Essay Winner. Each contestant will participate in the volunteer Community Service Program which is designed to promote teen involvement and participa tion in Volunteer Civic and Community Affairs. r—----------------------- Miss Oregon Teen-ager Pageant Set AROUND.AND AROUND they go. while the judges made their decisions at the Meal Site Nutrition Halloween party.

For example, an IRA opened at age 20 and con tinued for an entire working career at the maximum annual contribution of $1,500, at the present rate of 7-3/4% annual interest,* would result in an age 65 nest egg of over $620,000' Given those same conditions and continued to age 70, that IRA account would be worth $922,281.57. Individual Retirement Accounts are available to any wage earner or self-employed person who is not currently a participant in any other pension or profit-sharing plan. An IRA account can be opened for as little as $100 with additional deposits made in increments of $25 or more, and the current interest rate is guaranteed for a minimum of three years. The annual contributions of up to $1500—or 15% of your gross wages, whichever is less-are deductible from an individual's personal income taxes, both state and federal.
