Jacksonville There was an
"earnest discussion" of the pro
posed new charter for the city
of Jacksonville at a public hear
ing here Friday evening, accord-'
in to City Councilman H. L.
Markwith.
A city-wide vote on the pro
posed charter will be conducted
Tuesday. Voting will be at the
city hall, with the polls open
from noon to 7 p.m.
Voters present were interest
ed in why the positions of re
corder and treasurer should be
appointive instead of elective,
he said. Ervin Hogan, city at
torney, explained that since
their duties are not policy-making,
and because they require
technical qualifications which
voters are not in a position to
judge, the League of Oregon
Cities has recommended the
council select persons with pro
per qualifications for these posi
tions. May Ask Later Vote
Another clause which was dis
cussed was the requiring that
a candidate for councilman be
a qualified voter with 12 months
residence in the city. Some p res
sent felt that an added require
ment that they be property-owners
in the city should be added,
Markwith reported.
This phase was discussed at
some length, the councilman
said, and it was tentatively de
cided that this would be sub
mitted to the voters at the Nov
ember election if the new char
ter is adopted otherwise.
He said there was no disagree
ment with increasing the coun
cil to six members plus the may
or, nor with giving the mayor a
vote. He now votes only in case
of tie votes.
Heavy Vote Seen
Markwith said it is expected
that there will be a large vote
.Tuesday, due to the amount of

ent charter was adopted in 1911
and has been amended many
times. All these changes , have
not been made clear, casting
j some doubt on what is contained
in the present charter, ne aaaea.
The new charter is "only the
first step" in a campaign to
bring the records of the city of
Jacksonville up to date, he
stated.
'Motherless Youth1 Found

Oklahoma City, Okla. OJJS J they Investigated and discovered
A boy, 17, who won the sym
pathy of many residents here as
a motherless youth in search
of his long-lost father, was iden
tified r Saturday as an AWOL
paratrooper with a wild imagin

As We Live
GRUMBLERS SUCCEED ONLY
Of BECOMING DISUSED
Some people grumble most of
the time, others only occasion
ally. But few of us are com
pletely free
from this disa
greeable trait
Whether It's
the weather,
how the gov
ernment is run
or the state of
the grumbler's
health, he
picks out the
flaws and
Dr. Huzlock dwells on
them.
Why do people grumble? What
satisfaction do they get? Surely
continual complaints are not
pleasant for other people to
listen to, nor do they help a per
son to be liked!
Back of all grumbling are two
common characteristics. One is
the desire for attention. The
person who grumbles often dis
covers' that it gets him an audi
ence. The other is feeling of
inferiority. If the grumbler can
point out flaws in other people
or things, it gives a boost to his
own ego.
Like all behavior traits, grum
bling can and often does develop
into a deep-seated habit The re-

suit is that as a person grows
older he complains more and
more. By the time he is old he
is so disagreeable no one wants
to have him around.
The best way to check the
grumbling habit before it takes
a real hold on you is to convince
yourself that this is no way to
win friends. Once you desire to
stop grumbling, it will be easier
for you to do so.
Your second step is to try to
find something nice to say.
There is good in everyone and
everything if you will look for
it. Say pleasant, things and you
will be surprised at how much
better the world will look to
you.
And, finally, ask your family
and best friends to remind you
when they hear you start to
grumble. You may have been
grumbling for so long that you
do not realize you are doing it
LETTERS FROM READERS:
Unstable People: "One hoars
so much today about unstable
people. What makes people un
stable?"
(A) There have always been
unstable people, but there are
unquestionably more today than
there have been in the past This
is due primarily to the fact that
modern living produces greater
feelings of insecurity. We are far
less certain of how things will
be tomorrow than past genera
tions were. Most people learn to
take this uncertainty in a philo
sophical manner. They cross
each bridge as they come to it
Others allow uncertainty to up
set them, and this is primarily
responsible for their instability.
Trailer Living: "Is It wise for
young married people with chil
dren to live in a trailer rather
than in a house?"
(A) Unless the husband's work
requires him to travel, I cannot
see any reason for living in a
trailer unless it is for the sake
of economy. A trailer costs less
than a house, but it rarely has
as much room or as many con
veniences. Children are forced
to live in very cramped quarters
with practically no play space,
For a summer - holiday trailer-
living is all right for a family
with children, but for year-
round living it offers few of the
advantages of a house.
Sister-In-Law: "My husband's
sister is a busybody. How friend
ly should I be with her?"
(A) If you live near her and
if she and your husband are very
close, try to keep on friendly
terms even if she annoys you
with her interference. If, on the
other hand she is not on espe
cially friendly terms with your
husband, there is no reason xor
you to go out of your way to
cultivate her friendship. Be
friendly when you meet but
see that your paths cross as lit
tle as possible.

-Apt,
Mowdy , was absent without
leave .from Ft Campbell, Ky.
He was turned over to military
police at Tinker Air Force base.
Mowdy's heart-rending story
came to the attention of news
papers and radio stations here
Wednesday after police found
on the courthouse steps, an ap
parent victim of amnesia. Later,
however, he said his amnesia
story was a sham but he made
up a bigger story in its place.
Told Sad Story
Identifying himself as Roy
Edwards, he said his mother had
been killed in an auto crash and
he came here to look for his fa
ther, who had deserted the fam
ily 15 years ago. His plight was
printed and broadcast. Marty
persons offered to adopt him,
even high school coaches want
ed to put the 185-pound boy in
school and make a football play
er out of him. -
Newspaper photographers had
his picture, one of which showed
in a Eugene, Ore., paper. That's
when his mother, Mrs. Marie
Lanini, wife of a farmer, put an
end to the masquerade.

Tragedy-Haunted Family of
Returned POW Receives Aid
Sweetwater Tex. GJJ9
Sgt John B. Rhoton, released
from a Communist prison camp
Saturday, is coming home to a
tragedy-haunted family.
His father died last week of
lung cancer? His mother is criti
cally iH, recovering in a hospital
from serious surgery. The fam
ily faces financial ruin from
deaths, disease and drought
Thank God He's Safe"
Mrs. George B. Rhoton . said
"thank God he's safe" when she
learned that her son was free.
She said she doubted if he
knew that his father was dead.
In Korea, the Army indicated
Rhoton would be flown home as
soon as possible.
Awaiting him were his moth
er, sister and brother. During
the last year they have weath
ered three consecutive crop fail
ures due to drought on their
farm near Longview, Tex.
When the father died, they
had already sold and borrowed
all they could to pay for medical
expenses and keep the farm go
ing. But good neighbors from as
far as the West Coast were com
ing to Rhoton's aid Saturday.
The family's plight was pub
licized a week ago. Since then
there has been a wave of cash
gifts, mainly from West Texas.
The Roton, Tex., bank started
a fund for the family and it
grew almost immediately to
more than $1,000. Neighbors
went into the Rhoton fields to
work and see if any crops could
be salvaged.
It all helped cheer lbs. She
ton. But she still wanted to see
her soldier son.
Now that he's coming home,
she said, "things may work out
all right"
