The national organization was founded in Boston in 1882 by Marion Talbot. This association of women college and university graduates has grown from 65 members to some 200,000 with branches in every state, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam. AAUW's Educational Center is located in Washington, D.C. and houses the national staff officers as well as a specialized library and materials related to women and education. Local branches of the AAUW as well as state and national associations, after in-depth studies, have taken stands on such issues as quality education, school financing, public disclosure laws, nuclear energy and conservation programs. AAUW is also vitally concerned with programs for the elderly and the family.

Her bread to go to bazaar "My time is divided between nay church and my family," says Helen Giddings, member of St. David's Episcopal Church and mother of three. She teaches Sunday school and serves as superintendent of the Sunday school. She is a vestry member, and she is assisting with St. David's bazaar to be held on December 1 in the church parish hall. Bible study is held in her home each Wednesday evening. Born and reared in Aberdeen, Helen left her home town at the age of 18 years to attend a beauty academy in Tacoma. After her graduation one year later she went to Florida to learn that her Washington beautician license was not valid in that state. "So," she says, "l worked as a meat cutter in a cafeteria." In 1963 she was married in Aberdeen to Veme Giddings. The couple's children are two-year-old Katie; Rebecca, who is three and a half years old; and Andrew, who will be seven in December. Helen (known as Joey to her friends) went as a bride to Tom's River, New Jersey where Veme was stationed as an officer in the U.S. Navy. They lived there until 1967 when they came to Shelton. "Verne attended the patrol academy," says Joey, "and upon his graduation he was stationed in Shelton." Although she has traveled 46 states, Mrs. Giddings has always remembered Washington as home. "My great-grandfather came to the Aberdeen area about 90 years ago," she explains, "and he was one of the founders of the city. He was also one of the writers of the state constitution M,Y family has been in Washington contihiiously since that time." In her journeying Joey has worked at many trades. She has been employed in wig salons, in ladies' apparel shops, in book stores. She has been beautician and cosmetician. In Shelton she was employed in Nell's Pharmacy "We like Shelton," she declares. "It's a safe place to live, and the climate is pleasant. What snow we have is nothing compared to that in New Jersey. We were often snowed in there for days at a time, and had to dig our way out to get to a store." Her hobbies include the arranging of flowers, and she utilizes both fresh and dry materials. She knits. She bakes and decorates cakes. She loves animals. "I used the kids as an excuse to have pets," she laughs, "and they learned to love them as I do." Household animals include a sort-of Dachshund named Speedy; an elkhound-Samoyed crossbreed; a kitten called Murphy and a rabbit whose HUDSON ® fldavitel Rdavite-m For Theragran/Theragran-M Users Your doctor can tell you Hudson's Adavite and Adavite-M multivitamins are equivalent to Squibb's Theragran and Theragran-M.

She often bakes whole wheat bread for her family, and will contribute this specialty to the coming bazaar.
