Iff I r-& 1 . S That's why railroads are essential. We can't promise a price freeze on washing machines. But we can say that shipping by rail remains one of the best bargains you'll find. That's one of the reasons Southern and other railroads are so popular with appliance makers. In fact, 71 of all household appliances are snipped by rail. And shipping by rail is as dependable as it is economical. Maybe thafs why railroads handle twice as much intercity freight as trucks. Two hundred times as much as airlines, r : Which is why you need railroads. And why you need Southern. AN EQUAl OfWrrUNtTY EMPLOYE.

This difference among men and women has probably ac counted for more domestic scenes than any other phase of mar riage. Actually, spending is a genetic trait. In every female is an exocrine gland called "Spend, Baby Spend." It is located in the palm of the hand which Is why girt babies are born with the left hand cramped in a credit card position. (Males are born with closed fists.) WHENEVER A WOMAN views signs reading: "SALE. END OF THE MONTH CLEARANCE. GOING OUT OF BUSINESS. LIQUIDATING. ONE-HALF OFF. NO PAYMENTS UNTIL AFTER CHRISTMAS", the other glands swing Into action. Sal iva begins to form in her mouth, the palms of her hands begin to perspire, tears of excitement form in her eyes, and the pituitary gland says, "Go Mama." In the male. It Is quite a different story. He ha a gland which follows a muscle from hli right arm down to the base of his billfold pocket. It Is called "cheap." When a decision of money Is to be made, the muscle stiffens, the right hand be comes numb and he is unable to pull the billfold out of the pocket These genetic differences can best be explained by our recent experience in buying a freezer. We discussed at great length at home how a freezer would save us money. We decided between us (hat the budget could stand the cost of a freezer. We saw an ad in the paper listing exactly the one we wanted at exactly the price we could pay. Wa took the checkbook from the desk and announced to the chil dren, "We are going to buy a freezer tonight." AT THE STORE, the salesman approached my husband and asked, "May I help vou?" "We're just looking," said my husband and wandered Into air conditioners. I grabbed his arm. "Whatya mean we're Just looking! We're going to buy a freezer!" Tonight?" he asked In surprise. 'We decided it was a necessity." "You said that when you got the dog's teeth capped." The salesman returned. My reflexes instinctively opened my handbag, thrust it at the salesman and said, "Take what you need." My husband shook his head muttering, "I wonder If there's a hormone you can take 'or poverty."
