Rogue River Lions club held r As We Live Radicals Not Wanted In Most Social Groups Today, mors than ever before, people are emphasizing the im portance of being "social." What this and to what degree a person need be social to be successful are j u s t i f i able questions. By a social p e r s o n is meant one Dr. Huxlock wh0 can get along well with all types of peo ple, who enjoys and is at ease in social situations, and who is willing to sacrifice enough of his individuality, in both be havior and opinions, to fit into the social group with, which he identifies' himself. This does not mean that a per son should strive to be so like everyone else that he is more like the product of a mold than an individual. It does mean, however, that while retaining a reasonable amount of individ uality, he is willing to go along with the group and do and think much the same as they do regarding important matters. His individuality should be re served for matters that will not label him as "queer" or "radi cal." Persons of that description are rarely liked. True, they may be interesting or even amusing, but they are rarely found to be pleasant for any stretch of time and are rarely found to make satisfactory friends. Happy Medium All of this implies that a per son should strive for a happy medium between two. extremes. He should not go to the extreme of being so much like everyone else that he is afraid to act or think differently for fear of what others may think or say. Nor should he go to the ex treme of individuality where he tries to avoid conformity to any pattern. This is just as bad as the other extreme. Instead, his emphasis should be on Taeing enough like others that they will like him and he will like them. When he sees that he has reached this goal, he has proof that he has attained the "happy medium." LETTERS FROM READERS Sex Determination: "Are there any tests that can tell what a baby will be boy or girl be fore birth?" (A) Yes, there are a number of so-called ''tests of sex de termination" but most of them are little better than guess-work. Until a fool-proof test is devised, and this may never be, it is best to wait and see what the baby is after it is born. When a person relies on the prophecy of a test, and then that test turns out to be wrong, he is likely to be bit terly disappointed. It is not fair to give a new baby such a re ception. ., Family Arguments: "I realize that arguments in front of the There IS A Difference In Ice Cream --That's Why We're Proud That Me fiord's Own ICE CREAM WAS AMONG THE WINNERS IN ALL 3 DIVI SIONS IN THE LATEST OREGON DAIRY INDUS TRIES ICE CREAM COMPETITION.

Does it hurt lhem to have lheir par ents argue in private?" (A) Arguments really are not necessary among grown-ups who behave in a mature manner. You and your husband can and will, of course, have differences of opinion, but they need not reach the "argument stage," where each gets angry and says unpleasant things. Even if you carry out your arguments in private, the children will sense the tenseness of the atmosphere and this certainly is not good for them. First Love. "I have always believed that a person's deepest love is his first love. If so, shouldn't he marry the first per son he really falls in love with?" (A) I am willing to agree with you that "first love" is usually the most intense love. But, I question whether it is always the right kind on which to base a happy marriage. Far too often it is a form of infatuation, aroused partly by physical at tractiveness and partly by asso ciating the loved one with a ro mantic image formed prior to the romance. -This type of "first love" is not a good basis for marriage because it is too un realistic and too likely to be shattered with disillusionment later on.
