Harris best selling recent book at the Jan. 16 Bookworm Club meeting at the home of Mrs. Lucy Peter son. Because of weather and illness problems the club has had to postpone meeting for sometime, but finally had its Christmas gift exchange around a pretty tree and amid other attractive decorations at Mrs. Peterson's home. She served Christmas pudding as the evening's refreshment. Cards were read from Sara McNamer, Virginia Turner and Leta H. - Thomas, all formerly active f Bookworms. . , . . , - Mrs. Eb Hughes and Mrs. Charles Starks were welcomed back as regular members of the club. Pauline Hughes was not in the Heppner area last fall, and Jean Starks had taken a rather extended Leave-of-absence for health reasons. Mrs. Abrams scholarly and interesting review demon strated how helpful this book could be to readers. It is a fresh, sensible, increasingly popular approach to problems that all humans, including those in need of psychiatric help, face daily in relations with themselves and others. Transactional analysis Dr. Harris has worked out a new manner of considering one's problems. He states that each person is responsible for what happens in his future, no matter what has happened in the past. He stresses three active elements in each person's make-up: the Parent, the Adult, and the Child (P-A-C). The Parent personifies the "don'ts" and a few "do's" implanted in one's earliest years and automatically accepted as gospel. The Child represents spontaneous emotion. Both Parent and Child must be kept in proper relation to the Adult, whose function is that of a reality computer that grinds out decisions based on the data derived from experi ence. The goal of Transactional Analysis is the strengthening and emancipation of the Adult from the archaic recordings in Parent and Child to make possible freedom of choice and the creation of new options. Four Positions Dr. Harris explains that there are four life positions underly ing people's behavior. They are: (1) I'M NOT OK-YOU'RE OK (the anxious dependency of the immature): (2) I'M NOT OK-YOU'RE NOT OK (the giving-up or despair position): (3) I'M OK-YOU'RE NOT OK (the criminal position): and (4) I'M OK-YOU'RE OK (the response of the mature adult, at peace with himself and others). Most people still unconsiously operate from the I'M NOT OK-YOU'RE OK POSITION. Applications Dr. Harris applies the P-A-C system to problems in marriage and child rearing, mental retardation, violence, student revolt, racial prejudice, creativity, adolescence, relig ion, and international problems, including war. There is a long and helpful chapter discussing when treatment is necessary, with a description of group treatment. (Transactional Analysis works at its best in groups: the more transactions, or relationships, to analyze the better.) The chapter "P-A-C and Moral Values" is out standing, and final chapter is concerned with the social implications of P-A-C.

Krom a weed that lived just long enough to tell about it. "Oh, it was terrible. A tragic day for weeds indeed. There we were happily robbing the wheat of their precious moisture and nutrients when the Bronate hit. , First the gromwell, tarweed, .henbit and dogfennel keeled over and died. Then the mustard family collapsed simultaneously. And finally my own family of crowfoot went before my very eyes. I'd heard about Bronate but I never imagined it could wipe us out like that. I mean, we crowfoot are a hardy lot. Old Uncle Slimleaf, rest his soul, told us this Bronate wasn't like any other herbicide. It was educated. It knew the difference between weeds and wheat. It even says on the label it will kill 26 kinds of us. I le said farmers use it because when it killed us, it wouldn't hurt a grain of the wheat. Even the new herbicide sensitive varieties like luke wheat. And they'd get up to 12 to 20 bushels more yield per acre. That's why it's the first choice of farmers out here in the Northwest. Well, Uncle Slimleaf was right, dead right. Anyway, by the time we realized Bronate was coming it was too late. We were goners. ' It's just a matter of time for me now. I don't know how much longer I can hang on. ; My last words to my fellow weeds are: stay away from Bronate. It r-e-a-ll-y w-o-rrr-ks."
