' New Subdivision i
Will Be Opened
Southwest of City
A 75-home tract is being open
ed Just southwest of the Medford
' city limits today by D. A.
Parker, he announced Saturday.
The development is expected to
involve some $750,000 in new
home construction, Parker said.
The tract, being developed "as
Westside Heights subdivision, is
located west of Plum street and
north of Stewart avenue. Work
men started cutting an extension
of Winchester street through the
tract Thursday, and construction
of the first houses will get under
way tomorrow, Parker said.
Homes to' be built in the 21
acre subdivision will range in
price from $9,000 upwards and
will be of two and three-bedroom
size, the builder said. He stated
that purchasers may furnish
their own plans or could take
advantage of a variety of plans
which he will have available.
The homes will be sold under
FHA terms and will be processed
. through the Mark Goldy'agency
here.
Paved streets and concrete
sidewalks will be extended into
the tract and homes will be con
f structed on Murray, Winchester
and Mt. Fitt streets and on Stew
art avenue. City water and sant
tary . sewer facilities will also
be extended into the area.
Annexation Planned
Plans call for annexation of
the Westside Heights subdivision
by the city as soon as prelim'
inary work can be completed.
Annexation of the tract recently
was recommended by the city
planning commission.
The new, tract, one of the
largest ever developed here, Is
the third major development un
dertaken by Parker during five
years in the construction busi
ness in the Medford area.
Selection of the site for the
development was based on sev
eral factors, Parker stated. He
stated that these include near
ness to schools, grocery stores
and service stations, and the
large number of fruit trees in the
area will bff- left around the
homes when possible.

As We Live
HAPPINESS IS UP TO
YOU HERE'S WHAT TO
DO ABOUT ITI - .
Happiness lies In your own
hands. If you are unhappy, you
have no one to blame but your
self. You are
not the only
person in the
world who has
.trials- and trib
ulations, nor
has fate dealt
you a harder
blow than oth
ers get.
How you
meet your mis
fortunes will
Dr. Huxleek
depend upon your whole atti
tude toward life. If, when you
were young, you were shielded
and protected from all of life's
unpleasantnesses by well-meaning
but misguided parents, of
course it is hard for you to take
things in your stride as others
do. But, it is not too late to learn
now.
Then, too, your happiness de
pends upon your ability to fit
yourself into the right hole for
you. A person who suffers from
the delusion that he can do and
be anything he wishes will face
unhappiness. If you -will see
yourself as you really are, if
you will be willing to stay in the
niche in which you belong, and
if you will be satisfied with it
even if it is not as glamorous as
you would like, you will be con
tented. Otherwise, you will be
unhappy.
Ways To Happiness
Here are some ways you can
make yourself into a happy, con
tented person:
1. See yourself as you really
are, not as you would like to be,
Take off the rose-tinted glasses
you have been wearing and look
at yourself honestly.
2. Accept yourself as you are
and don't bemoan the fact that
you are not-what you like to be.
Of course there are people In the
world who are handsomer and
brighter than you, but you have
your good points if you will only
look for them. And, don't over
look the fact that the people, you
envy may be worse off than you,
even though you can't see their
misfortunes.
3. Make a point to laugh and
smile. Just going through the
acts of being happy will go a
long way toward making you
happy. It is hard to be sad and
depressed when you have a
smile on your face.
4. Think and talk about cheer
ful things. The crepe-hanger is
sure to talk himself into a state
of depression because he exag
erates his misfortunes out of all
proportions.

mance that often reach epidemic
proportions lri certain groups.
One girl starts the ball rolling
and, before you know it, the ball
has turned into a snowball. The
rojnance and glamour of a wed
ding, with all the parties that
precede it and all the excitement
of getting new clothes and fur
nishing a new home, make many
young girls feel that they are
cheated if it doesn't happen to
them too. So, with this thought
in mind, they are ready to ac
cept the first man who proposes
to them. This is dangerous, like
all epidemics, because the de
cision is based on emotions r a til
er than logical thinking.
Bickering: "Our whole family
bickers. The children argue back
and forth until I think I will go
craiy and my husband makes
things worse by joining in. How
can I put a stop to this constant
bickering?"
(A) The only way you can
have peace and harmony in your
home is to forbid all bickering
inside the house. If the members
of your family want to bicker,
tell them they must go outside.
This holds for your husband as
well as for your children. When
they start to argue, and you see
that tempers are getting hot, put
an instant stop to the arguments
by sending each offender to his
room. If your husband refuses
to cooperate, refuse to cooperate
in the running of your home.
Don't prepare meals, let the
clothes say dirty and the beds
unmade. A wife is entitled to
peace in her home and this you
should demand.
Exaggerations: "My 10 year
old son exaggerates so much that
I never know when he is telling
the truth. He has no reason to
exaggerate because I am not
strict with him and do not pun
ish him unless it is necessarv."
(A) Exaggeration is giving
your son a teeling of importance
and is making people sit up and
take notice of him. In that way,
it is filling his need for self-as
sertion and that is his reason for
exaggerating. Try to fill this
need in more wholesome ways.
Praise him for what he does,
and be appreciative of his of.
forts. He will then not feel the
need for bidding for your atten
tion as ne now does.

lem, write Elizabeth Hurlock in

Yerl Walker Winner

Verl Walker, 205 West Jack

consistent service to customers
and the personal Integrity he
has brought to his business."

Washington (U.R) One of the)
best loved, and most feared,
wivnpn In Washington is Caro
lyn H a g n e r
Shaw.
She Is the
pretty, slender
pub lisher of
the famous lit
tle green suede
book called
..The social
:T . I List of Wash
KWl ington, D.C."
The latest
Harmon Nichoto edition of the
book won t
come out until early fall. A lot
of- the current wheels by that
time will have become small
spokes, but Mrs. Shaw has all
that figured out. She plans to
put out a supplement after the
elections. The supplement will
be published In February.
All Mrs. Shaw has done so far
Is to send out questionnaires to
social biggies. Her annual little
book carries the names of 4,000
society folks in the Washington
area. Some will remain and some
will be dropped in the new
edition.
Johnnie Ray Tells
Of Plans To Wed
In N.Y. on May 25
Cincinnati (U.R) Johnnie
Ray, the singing idol of the
bobby-soxers, announced that he
will marry Marilyn Morrison in
New York on Sunday, May 25.
"She's the first girl who ever
made me feel like a man," the
singer said in announcing his
wedding plans.
Straightened Him Out
"I think she is the prettiest
girl in the worldbut she's more
than that," Ray said. "She's so
down-to-earth and sensible.
She's really straightened me
out." .
Ray said that he was a "real
shy guy" until he met Miss Mor
rison, 22-year-old brunet in Hol
lywood five months ago.
Singer Confused
The singer said that all of
his success had confused and
frightened him until he met Miss
Morrison. He. added, however,
that he had been able to court
his bride-to-be as quietly as most
persons do,
Ray said that the couple hope
to have a large' family.
"We want to start having
children right away," he said.
"The more, the merrier."
An oil well being drilled in
Stone county, Mississippi, has
reached 20,325 feet and is still
drilling.
And how do you get Into the
book? Mrs. Shaw, who can trace
her family tree back to the
George Washington era, says to
have her life she doesn't know.
"We have a board of gover
nors," she told me. "Five wom
en and one man. Thoy decide
who will go onto the list and who
will be knocked off. I have noth
ing to do with it."
The board Is strictly secret
Nobody knows the members; no
body ever will, she said.
Must Be "Somebody"
You get on the book list if you
are "somebody" In Washington
and you stay- on if you behave
yourself and hold your fork right
and stand upright at cocktail
parties. The final decision is up
to the board.
A lot of fancy names have
been rubbed from the list for
various infractions.
There was a to-do a few years
ago when one of the president's
aides was rubbed out, and also
when a prominent columnist was
cut off the list.
"I don't know how those
things happen," Mrs. Shaw said.
"You'll have to ask the board."
