Prof. Ka- ren Gillespie of New York Universitys school of retailing is convinced that the consumer should be tolcl about the article he is purchasing and that the average shopper would find it profitable to become more inquisitive. Our ideal would be to have people know all the important facts about whatever they are buying, she told a group of teachers and summer school students who gathered for a special conference on consumer education. Prof. Gillesuie said she practices what she preaches in getting students to develop consumer interest. If she tells her students about furniture, she gets them to turn tables and chairs upside down to see how they are made. If the lecture is on jewelry, she removes a bracelet or ring and explains how the jeweler formed silver into flowers and oxidized them to highlight the design. Its a surprising fact," she said, that a student who may be planning for a career in retailing never bothered to examine the workmanship on articles he has lived with all his life. all-da- y 1 Every 15 minutes there is a farm tire somewhere in 1 - A.
