We would like to be as we see our selves in our d a y dream world but this wishful think ing rarely is duplicated in reality. Then we have to make the choice. Shall we look at our selves as we are, no matter Dr. Huilock how disappointing this vision may be, or shall we try to kid ourselves into believing that we are as we would like to be? Far too many people chose the latter alternative. They shut their eyes to what tbey should see and see only what they "want to see. As a result, they have a very unrealistic concept of themselves. Of course this is far pleasanter than what they would see if they kept their eyes wide Returning Navy Man Is Medford Visitor Kenneth Nelson of Mason City.

To me, a very interesting and not at all exaggerated picture of what a person who refuses to know himself is doomed to ex perience has been well illustrat ed in the play. "Death of a Sales man," and in the movie of the same name. If you have seen it, you know how inevitable the end was. Inflated Ego Here was a man, mediocre in ability, who liked to think he was a "big shot" in the business world. It inflated his ego to think that his football-playing son was a "big shot" too. So he exagger ated their abilities beyond all proportions. Of course the son could not live up to his father's expecta tions so he ran away from the constant reminders that he was falling short of parental expecta tions. And because his father had fostered In him the Idea that he was capable of bigger and better things than he was, he could not settle down and make a go of what he was really capable of doing. View Not Pltatant The father, like anyone with an unrealistic concept of him self, sooner or later was forced to look at himself as he really was and what he saw was not pleasant. Actually, he could not face it and committed suicide. Not all people will do this when they are forced to see themselves as they really are but all will be unhappy and dis illusioned. And because they be lieve they are capable of greater achievements than they actually are .they never make a success of what they can do. This adds to their unhappiness. How much wiser it is to see yourself as you are right from the start and get used to what you see. Then you won't have to face disillusion ment. LETTERS FROM READERS Words vs. Deedst "Why do so many people talk as if they were righteous and good, and yet do the very things lhcy condemn in others?" (A) People with lofty ideals mean to live up to their ideals but sometimes the flesh is weak and they yield to temptation. After falling below their ideals, they are usually bitterly dis illusioned with themselves and have marked feelings of guilt. This may not make them better in the future but it almost al ways increases their intolerance toward others who do the same things that they do. An extreme ly critical, intolerant person is invariably one who has lofty ideals and is not living up to these ideals. So he vents his pent up disappointment in a wrathful attack on others and condemns them bitterly, even if they are no worse than he. Interest in Children) "My hus band showed little interest in our children until they were S or 6 years old and could play with him. Now they are not at inter ested in their father as he thinks they should be and this hurts his feelings." (A) You can't expect children to develop a fondness for a per son overnight, especially when GVIDI PAINTER PHONE 2-2720 No Coffee Grown At City of Mocha Says Trade Letter In the 400 years that have elapsed since the beginning of the coffee trade, many "coffee" words have been added to the language of the world, according to the Coffee Newsletter of the Pan-American Coffee bureau. One of the first and most fa mous of these words was the word "Mocha." Over the centuries, there has grown an erroneous impression that the finest of coffees have been grown near the Arabian city of Mocha. The fact is that this locality, actually a sterile plain, has never produced even a single coffee bean. In the 1500's and 1600's, vir tually all the coffee in use throughout the civilized world was grown in Arabia and Tur key. Arabian coffee was culti vated by natives in almost inac cessible mountain valleys in the interior. Sixteenth century Turk ish merchants, the first coffee middlemen, sent their prized coffee cargo by camel caravan High School News By ROBENE STARCHER Miss Carol Coleman was in stalled president of Girls League for 1952-53 in a candlelight cere mony held in the auditorium Wednesday aft' ernoon; Other officers install ed were Gail McDuffee 5 vice-president Vera Casey, secretary, and Roberta Man ning, treasurer Jane PhilliDS who was elected treasurer, wili not attend Medford high next year.

Copies of the Medford high school annual, Crater, arrived Friday and the annual signature party was held after school in the boys' gymnasium. Norma Jeanne Snell and Carolyn Shan gle were co-editors of the annual. Former Medford High school students were among those re cently pledged by honor groups at Oregon State college. Jim Welty is a pledge of Alpha Delta Sigma, advertising honorary, and Dick Kyle has been pledged to National Collegiate players. that persons has shown little or no interest in them. If your hus band wants his children to like him and to want to do things with him, he must build up an affection in them for him almost from the time they are born. Of course little babies and toddlers are not as companionable as old er children but there are plenty of interesting things in them if your husband will only keep his eyes open and look tor tnem. Engagement Ring: "My fiance wents to give me an engagement ring but he can't afford to buy one of the kind I want. I think he should wait until he can get what I want but he wants to give me a ring now. What shall I do?" (A) By all means, take the ring now. There is sentiment associ ated with an engagement ring no matter how small It may be. That same sentiment will never be associated with a ring he gives you later. (Copyright 1952.

Muriel Shaw was appointed to find flowers, fruit and grain for the three Graces stations. Building Committeeman Paul Larson reported he thought we should buy more shingles at this time and finish the roof. Dance Committeeman Ken Shaw re ported the square dances have been doing real well. It was voted that the secre tary should write a letter of to Cairo. From there, it was shipped down the Nile to Alex andria, then the chief port for Europe and the Near East. However, with the growth .of the coffee trade during the 1600's and early 1700's, Dutch, English and French traders be gan to send their ships clear around the Cape of Good Hope to Arabia to buy directly from the Arabians. Through this ef fort to eliminate the middleman, the port of Mocha became the center through which most Euro pean coffee was to be exported for many years. As soon as the Europeans es tablished direct trade with Arab la, they observed a startling de velopment: suddenly, the quali ty of the coffeee was greatly im proved. It was discovered that the aging and "sweating" pro cess which the beans underwent during the prolonged voyage through the humid tropics mel lowed the coffee's flavor. So it was that the coffees called "Macha" came to be known as the most desirable coffees ob tainable. Almost from the beginning, the crops of Mocha were far too small to meet the demand. In time, other countries began to grow coffee which was sent by windjammer to Arabia where the beans were "aged" In the sun to give them the yellow brown color of Arabian coffees. Then they were christened with the magic name, "Mocha," and re-shipped to world markets. Today, most Arabian coffee Is consumed in Arabia. The amount received by the United States makes up less than one-tenth of one per cent of coffee used here. !.itl'tHiil.ii-m)iii,jyinnHiai.i,Ml"". 1 ' v'. '.
