Minding Minutes
Of all the homemaker's many resources — time, energy,
knowledge and skills -- time is the only one that's limited for
all and the one most lacking in management.
Only by recognizing the extent of her resources — and then
managing their use effectively — can the home manager meet
the many demands on her time, energy and skills.
Lynn Bourland, specialist in home management with the Tex-
as Agricultural Extension Service of Texas A&M University,
explained that the underlying secret of successful home man-
agement is in the careful use of resources, aimed at achieving
family goals.
"But the goals and values should be decided cooperatively
through family discussions.
"These discussions help determine what is the most import-
ant in terms of demands on her resources — that is, what will
provide a sense of security and achievement for the family and
individual.
'•Once the goals are determined in this way, a plan is in or-
der," the home management specialist indicated.
In making the plan, several principles of time management
should be observed.
First, the homemaker should become aware of how she uses
her time.
When this is done, she should classify her activities into
groups — work, maintenance or free time.
"Identifying and correcting ways in which she kills time and
is diverted from her work is important to the plan. At the
time, disorganization causes need to be found and remedied."
Miss Bourland advised the homemaker to recognize and eli-
minute excessive involvement.
"She needs to visualize what goals and values compete for
her time."
To help solve the problem, the individual should make a
realistic schedule for maximum time use. Using energy-saving
work habits also helps make the most of time, the specialist
added.
"Time is only one resource to be managed by the homemak-
er, but the manner in which it's managed will influence the
management of the others.
"Effective use of time in managing the home is one of the
ways today's homemaker can stretch dollars, gain leisure
time and conserve health and energy to enjoy life with her
family," Miss Bourland concluded.
SNOW BIZ
Now they have a new snow
mobile oil that won't I'oul you
up!
The 100 per ceni synthetic
Snowmobile Oil from Union
Carbide Corporation is made
for use in all 2-cycle, air-
cooled snowmobile engines.
It's especially designed to pro
vide the best possible perfor-
mance. It burns cleanly in
snowmobile engines and there-
by prevents spark plug foul-up.
It reduces combustion cham-
ber deposits, ring sticking and
exhaust port clogging. All of
which means that your snow-
mobile will run better and
start easier.
Union Carbide Snowmobile
Oil has a -25 degree F. pour
point for easy pouring in cold
weather and it's completely
soluble in all types of engine
fuel including high-perfor-
mance racing fuels. Snowmo
bile Oil is now available in a
new light blue, one pint size

Today's trend in hair fashion
moves toward a more shaped,
yet natural looks requiring spe-
cial care.
According to Mrs. Becky Gulp,
clothing specialist for the Tex-
as Agricultural Extension Ser-
vice, "backcombed and sprayed
styles for women, as well as
the unkept flowing lccks of the
younger male generation," have
retreated from the fashion
scene.
"An abundance of summer sun,
wind and outdoor recreation,
however, can turn any man or
woman's preferred hair fashion
into a look that is ragged and
unhealthy," the Texas A&M
University specialist warned.
Mrs. Culp cited split ends or
the frizzles" as one of the most
common problems encountered
when summer weather, sum-
mer activities and hair get to-
gether.
Hair that tends to be dry or
brittle is particularly suscep-
tible to split ends, the special-
ist said.
'Split ends are characterized
by hair ends that are whitish,
unruly and broken," she added.
"The result when hair is sub-
jected to harsh and drying con-
ditions."
Nothing can restore a hair to
its original condition once it's
split, Mrs. Culp noted. 'The
only real cure is to cut the split
end off before it can move up
the hair shaft and split further.
A professional trim every six
to eight weeks will keep split
ends to a minimum," she said.
To get rid of a few occasional
split ends between trims --
and before they worsen — twist
a length of hair into about the
thickness of a pencil, Mrs. Culp
suggested.
The unruly qualities of split
hair cause them to stick out
away from the twisted section.
These ends simply can be
trimmed off.
Regular use of a hair condi-
tioner reinforces hair, restores
oil and moisture, and reduces
breakage and splitting, the spe-
cialist explained.
She recommended protein en-
riched and 20-30 minute condi-
tioners specifically labeled for
damaged hair.
"Conditioners don't have the
ability to mend split ends per-
manently once the damage has
been done," she cautioned.
Mrs. Culp also discouraged
grooming routines which pro-
mote split ends.
"Heat from electric rollers
and alcohol from hairspray can
dry and split ends when used to
excess. Backboming and teas-
ing hair, brush rollers and
sleeping on rollers overnight
also encourage hair ends to
split."
She advocated using end pap-
ers, similar to those for body-
waves and permanents, to help
protect split ends from worsen-
ing when set in rollers.
"Body waves and permanents
can give hair that boost needed
to achieve and maintain today's
hair fashions, but overpro-
cessing chemically can cause
ends to split," the specialist
maintained.
A general guideline is to avoid
permanently treating hair more
than once every two months, she
said.
A suitable hat or scarf pro-
tects hair from the sun's
bleaching and drying effects and
the winds battering while it
serves a fashion purpose for the
wearer, Mrs. Culp suggested.
Rinsing chlorine and salt water
from the hair as soon as pos-
sible eliminates the drying ef-
fects they have on hair, she
added.
"No amount of external hair
care can alter basically un-
healthy hair — the result of
an unhealthy body. Physical
exercise, and adequate diet,
sleep and an emotional calm are
the basic essentials to healthy
hair" Mrs. Culp concluded
