The fact is that I feel the old

not only opposed Julia's mar
jr.age to me, but broke up her
relationships with other young
men of rier own faith.
I've talked the whole thing
over with Julia' brother and he
agreed with me that his father
had a warped mind and was al
ways cruel to Julia. But did he
offer to give up one cent of his
share of the estate? Not on your
Clife. Julia even admitted that she
expected he would share with
her and was quite disappointed
at his attitude.
I feel I can make a satisfactory
living for my family, but our
children have a right to this

family problems and of a knock
down, dragout fight with her
brother. She also does not like
her husband's avid interest in
this money.
Her feelings in these matters
are obviously more important to
Julia than the money, and her
husband should respect those
feelings. Dan is now undermin
ing his wife's faith in him and
injecting great bitterness into
her relationship with her broth
er. He should accept with good
grace the fact that "the old man"
did not want him as a son-in-law
and that what to do about

Fresh Ground Vater
Claimed Present in
Coos Sand Dunes
Washington (U.R) The In
terior Department said today
that undeveloped fresh ground
water is present in sand dune
areas north of Coos Bay, Ore.,
and can be made available to
meet water needs in the area.
A report, made public today
by Interior Secretary Fred Sea
ton, gives findings of an inves
tigation made in 1954-56 by the
Geological Survey in coopera
tion with the Oregon state en
gineer. Near Mean Sea Level
The department said the
ground water body is a thin.
flat-bottomed lens in the dune
sand. Its base lies near mean sea
level and its top ranges from an
elevation of three or, four feet
at the tidewater edges to 25 to
30 feet near the central, north
south crest of the dune lands.
The lens of fresh water may be
perehed on a clay-like layer and
thus may not be in direct con
tact with saline ground water
below.
The report includes data indi
eating that the ground-water
body is recharged by the infil
tration of about 75 per cent of
the raifall, which averages 61
inches per year. This estimated
inflow amounts to a yearly re
charge averaging about two mil
lion gallons of water per day
per square mile, the report said.
Special Type of Wells
The report said the flatness of
the water body and the uniform
medium grain of the sand re
quire special types of wells and
drains from which to withdraw
the water cffecicntlv. The water
is described as soft with a low
mineral content and generally
of good quality, although slight
ly acitl.
Copies of the report are being
deposited in the offices of the
state engineer and principal pub
lic libraries in the Coos Bay
area.
