The more glamorous the person, the more he catches the child's imagination. Q. "I have a son of seven who. has gone wild over this Davy Crockett stuff. He had to have a coonskin cap and a whole outfit to look like his hero. All he wants to talk bout is Davy Crockett, how brave he was, etc., etc., until I get fed up with it 1 don't re member ever having gone wild ever anyone like the kids of today do. If it isn't one person it's another they hero-worship. Don't you think this is foolish and carrying things too far?" (A) No, I think it is good for a child to have a hero he can admire and and want to imitate. This hero acts as a model fnr Vi i c num Vio- vV I havior. If he seiecis a moaei who has char- Df. ffarlock acter traits that everyone admires and he wouldn't be a hero unless he did then his hero-worship is a healthy thing. By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. I If a child has no hero to want to be like, or if he switches con jstantly from one "ideal" to an other, he is likely to become con fused in his own mind about what he would like to be him self. The only danger in childish hero-worshipping is that a per son who , is unworthy of being imitated may become a hero in children's eyes to the point where they want to imitate un desirable qualities. Should a child pick out as his hero a per son who was not a law-abiding citizen but who had enough dar ing to give him glamor, that would certainly not be a good thing. However, when' children try to imitate national heroes and want to be like the people who have helped to make our coun try great, the best thing a parent can do is to encourage them whether the hero be Davy Crockett or someone else who has gone down in history for what he has done for his coun try.

Former Resident Killed in Accident News of the desth June 14 at Cincinnati, O., of Fred Frideger, 85, a former valley resident, has been received here from his niece, Mrs. Wilbert Pester, Wapokoneta, O. Frideger died as the result of a freak accident while he was sitting on a park bench in the Cincinnati zoo, according to a report of the incident. A truck driver hauling a load of hot blacktop material swerved his truck into a zoo roadway to avoid striking a car parked at a stop light. The truck's brakes failed, and it overturned. Fride ger was buried under seven tons of the 'hot material. He died about two hours after the acci dent. Funeral services were held last Friday at Wapakoneta. Frideger came to Oregon from Ohio in 1901 and lived in this area until April, 1935, when he returned to his home state. He was a plasterer by trade and op erated a pear orchard for many years at Eagle Point. He stayed during winter months in Medford at the home of a half-brother, the late Abe Frideger. He also was a cousin of the late Will Frideger. SPECIALIST FIELD Detroit Many automotive plants specialize in a certain part of a motor vehicle and do not produce completed automobiles. Home Repair Bill Said Getting Big. The annual outlay for repairs and remodeling of homes in the United States last year reached $12,000,000,000, according to Clark Walker, president of the Medford Realty Board. Walker said home owners and occupants are spending nearly as much on improvements as others are ' spending for purchase of new homes. . He stated, "Much of this ex penditure for repairs and re modeling has gone toward im provement of neglected houses of the cities. Individuals, com munity organizations and local governments are all part of this unprecedented housing rejuve nation." He further commented, "Ur ban communities are awakening to the need for firm enforce ment of adequate housing codes." Mom says to get Spreckels Sugar for Canning 'n Freezing too ...so good!

What every good cook knows: rvs .... : Just a little difference in ingredients makes a big difference in cooking results Snowdrift is just a little lighter than any other shorten ing and that can make the big difference in giving your family lighter, more digestible foods. Snowdrift gives y ust a little more tafety than ordinary shorten ings, because it fries perfectly at correct high temperatures. That can make the big difference in digestibility of fried foods. Snowdrift's ingredients are just a little costlier than any other solid shortening (yet you pay no more). That can make the big difference in better tasting foods, whether fried or baked.
