An easily understood copy of the survey is available for residents to study. It contains drawings, statistics and costs of filtration plant. A group of parents with T. J. Netzel as spokesman appeared before the council, explaining their plans for a recreational area below the Rogue river bridge east of town. Facilities for picnicking were mentioned, along with the thought that the city might be willing to help build a road down to the area. As the fire hazard season draws near, the council voted to have fire trails plowed around the city dump and along the north side of town, and to have all grass cut on vacant lots. Acting Mayor Floyd Lance ap pointed Harry Foley to fill out the term of Carl Whitford, who has resigned. The meeting was adjourned until June 1, the time of the budget hearing.

Jane Mother hits me over the head with my sister. - , Mrs. T. L. W. I am having a terrible time with our 15-year-old daughter, Jane. Our days and our nights are filled with quarrelling about things she wants that I feel she should not have. Lately this problem has become aggravated because Jane has taken it into her head that 1 am favoring Ruth, her 18-year-old sister. The fact of the matter is that Ruth is a very reasonable, girl who seldom asks for anything. Most of the time, it is I who must prod Ruth into realizing that she needs new clothes, but Jane is at me all the time with demands. I probably spend twice as much on Jane's clothes as on Ruth's, yet it is Jane who is making our lives miserable with complaining. Jane has a closet full of things, yet she keeps arguing that Ruth gets anything she wants for the asking, although Ruth actually has few things and takes good care of everything she has. I am at my wits' end over this problem, and my husband con tributes little to a solution ex cept to try to shout us both down. ' Jane My mother is always throwing up to me the fact that I have more things than Ruth, as if it is my fault that Ruth pays no attention to her clothes and doesn't care for social life. I have to get along in school and compejte with the other girls, and I must therefore keep tip with them. When Ruth suggest ed going to an expensive col lege, my parents never argued or suggested a cheaper one. But when I want to spend $10, they either try to cut me down to $5 or talk me out of it altogether. They're always using Ruth as a weapon with which to hit me over the head. The Council This problem is another illustration of the fact that comparisons are odious. Jane should not be beaten down with Ruth's example as the argument. Jane has developed quite a drive toward pressuring her parents. This drive keeps grow ing as the parents keep applying more repression, as they must SPECIAL ,"" Til Saturday Fresh, Sweet CORN On the 39 Cob Dot Given Council Mrs. E. R. Drake has returned home from the hospital where she underwent surgery. She is reportedly getting along nicely. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Doden hoff and daughter, Linda, Col fax. Calif., have been visiting their aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Lockwood. Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Fields of Henderson, Nev., are here to spend the summer months. The Fields are former residents of .Lampman road. Miss Nancy Rethmeyer, who has been living in Seattle for the past few months, has returned to be with her father, Fred Reth meyer, who has been quite ill. Mrs. Mable Goodwin fell while cleaning house and sprained her knee Wednesday. Mrs. Good win's granddaughter, Phyllis, is taking care of her. A surprise bridal shower was given for Miss Beth Eskew at the home of Mrs. Bob Jacks Wednesday afternoon. The host esses, Mrs. Dena Deets and Mrs. Jacks, made a centerpiece out of kitchen utensils representing a wedding party and including such figures as bride and groom, minister, flower girl and ring bearer. Dessert luncheon was served following which the host esses presented the bride-elect a coffee server. Present were Mrs. Don Hanscom of Central Point, Mrs. Lee Johnson and son Mike of Medford, and Mrs. Don Thum ler of Central Point. From Gold Hill, there were Mrs. Roland Washburn, Mrs. Joe Estramado and children Donny' and Linda, Mrs. Stanley Foley and sons Mike and Kenny, and daughter Harriet, and Mrs. Thelbert Wright. Mrs. Deets daughter, Merna, was also present. . The Rev. and Mrs. Howard Walton, recently from Days Creek, have moved into the Hugh Hayes house on Second ave. Mr. Walton will hold his first services at the Methodist Community church next Sunday. Mrs. Norman Gail and son Donnie have returned from Se attle where they have been vis iting relatives. They brought Miss Mildred Gail home with them. Miss Gail, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Gail, has completed her freshman year at the University of Washington. do in self-defense. Jane and her parents thus appear caught in a vicious cycle of cause and effect. . . . , It may be wise to break this painful impasse by putting Jane on a budget. Once she agreed on her budget, she could no longer argue that she was being discriminated against. The re maining problem then would be to get her to stay within her budget. This policing may be difficult, but the mere existence of a budget arrangement should take much of the bitterness out of the situation. This suggestion offers no easy way out, because an inexperi enced teen-ager is certain to run into grief operating on a budget. But it offers the important value of educating Jane in the use of money and self-control. It is every bit as important a part of her education as anything she can learn in school. If Jane welcomes the idea of having her own budget she should be required to accept a graduated course of training or apprenticeship and arrive at complete autonomy in shopping after an agreed-upon interval. Under a budget arrangement, there would still be occasion for arguing about the size of the budget, but Jane would be en couraged to develop judgment and self-restraint.

MARKET B 1202 North Riranide OPEN EVERY . , NIGHT TIL J Around Hollywood Hollywood (U.R) Just like in the silent thrillers, Mary Pick ford's mementoes and art treas- i ures have been 4L i saved- at the t$r.i Hth hour for long last the c o m m u nity might get its needed muse um. "A m e r i c a n's Sweet- Aline Mosby heart" recent ly threatened in a United Press .interview to leave her priceless po'ssessions, from paintings of herself to Rudolph Valentino's sword, to museums in other cities because the movie colony had none. . . . . But now a group of east erners saved the heroine from the buzz saw by offering to try to get the project under way. "I'm not changing my will now," Miss Pickford reported happily. "I received letters from many museums who wanted my things. But now I'm confident the movie industry leaders who were lacking in cooperation and enthusiasm over a Hollywood museum will change their minds." Easterners Offer Money The easterners have offered to raise money for the museum which is expected to become one of Hollywood's biggest tourist attraction. Miss Pickford wants it to house displays, from Oscar winning movies sets and cos tumes to relics from bygone films. Another feature would be a "Hollywood Hall of Fame." The public may be asked to vote on the first three film "immortals." They would be represented by life-size wax figures in the hall. Proceeds from the museum will go to the Motion Picture Relief Fund for the care of the industry's aged members. Miss Pickford hopes the museum will be dedicated to the man who worked in vain for years to found one, the late actor Jean Hersholt. Studios Shrug at Idea Miss Pickford sails to Europe this week. She and her husband, Buddy Rogers, will spend the summer on Errol Flynn's yacht while Rogers shoots backgrounds for a movie he's producing. In her absence, she said, she hopes a committee working on the mu seum will line up the cooperation of the movie studios. So far, she pointed out. the studios have shrugged off the idea. "I've received letters from all over the country from people who are so indignant that the film industry doesn't realize the importance of a museum," the silent screen star declared. "Many people have written asking if they can donate things old film magazines, photo graphs and autographs. And the studios are just bulging with wonderful things that could be lent to the museum.
