Dozens of new laboi-savers have come to h< i a. !. And fashion's dictators have decided not to tamper drastically with her wardrobe for a few months. Matter of fact, about the only gloomy note of the whole year i.s | the shortage of men. The girls still outnumber them! Here, by various groupings, is our own “thankful for” list. You may add others as you read along. Economics A total of 20.500,000 women now are employed, according to the women's bureau 01 the U. S. Department of Labor. Last year, the total was 10.400.000. Income of all types expected to set new records And the food budget Most foods are it: .pply, at stable price--, stry,sources say some pr , may decline toward the end of 1955. Health The Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. said the life expectancy at birth for both men tind women is growing. In 1950, for instance, the male life expc lancy was 65.8 years; tire woman's, 71.5. The company estimated that by 1954, it had grown to 67 years for the man, 7.1 for the woman. But the women continue to outnumber the men. The U. S. Census bureau counted 60.000,OCO women, 14 years and older, in September, 1954: the mal • total, 54.600.000. Metropolitan said in 1950, the total female population was 75,867,000. By July 1, 1955, it had grown to 83,245.000. The American woman could be grateful this year’ also for til. 1

Politics The number of women in nublic office re <ched a new high. The Republican party's Bertha Adkins said 323 women held elective state and federal of-

lice.

Thomas, both of Greencastle and a nephew, Lester Hapney of Washington township. Two brothers, Ervin and Willie preceded him in death. To those who are left to mourn his passing it can be said as the poet said. To weary hearts, to mourning homes, God’s meekest Angel gently comes; No power has he to banish pair. Or give us back our lost again; And yet in tenderest love and dear, Our Heavenly Father sends him here.
