Dolores P. I want to warn wind of the way Dolores feels
mv brother about his fiance.
John P. I should do it, man-to-man.
Dolores p. I am a happily
married woman and I am very
eager to see my bachelor brother
married. He has gone with many
girls and every no wand then
seems on the verge of taking the
plunge, but then shies off.
A few months ago he intro
duced me to one of his girl
friends and asked me what I
thought of her. I said that from
the one meeting all I could say
was thai I thought she was very
attractive and had a nice per
sonality. This seemed to give
him a lot of new enthusiasm for
her and shortly afterward they
became engaged.
Since then I've come to know
the girl quite well and I don't
like her at all. I think she is dom
ineering and has a nasty dispo
sition. I don't 'think my brother
or any other man could be happy
with her. I feel partially respon
sible for my brother's getting in
volved with her and I think I
ought to tell him how I now feel
about the whole thing. My hus
band says it would be a terrible
mistake.
John P. Dolores neglects to
mention that her brother is 32
and head-over-heels in love. They
are planning to marry in a few
months. Dolores will only antag
onize her brother ff she gives
him belated advice about this
girl.
I fully agree with Delores
about the girl. She's really a
mean one and if she ever gets
Homestead Farms
Offered in Drawing
Salem War veterans are giv
en priority in a current offering
of 145 homestead farm units in
the Minidoka reclamation proj
ect in scaithern Idaho, Vere A.
McCarto, service division man
ager of the Oregon department
of veters' affairs, has reported.
Veterans' applications must be
filed b dune 27 with the bureau
of reclamation, Rupert, Idaho,
to receive priority. Application
forms are available in Oregon
from county veterans' service
'officers or the department of
veterans' affairs, state finance
building, Salem, and state office
building, Portland.
While the farm units go with
out cost to winners in the public
drawing scheduled later, success
ful applicants must possess as
sets worth $4,500 in excess of
liabilities, and must have had
two years of farming experi
ence. Vettrans" preference goe to
persons who served 90 days or
more on active service between
Sept. 16, 1940, and Jan. 31, 1935.
The farm units, located about
40 miles east of Twin Falls in
Minidoka and Jerome counties,
Idaho, are suited for producti n
of a wide variety of crops under
irrigation, including potatoes,
sugar beets, beans, peas, Alfalfa,
clover and pastures, bean seed,
clover and alfalfa seed, wheat,
oats and barley. All of the land
is undeveloped and is covered
with native grasses and sagebrush.
about her, there will be plenty
of trouble.
A better idea would be for me
to have a man-to-man talk with
Dolores' brother. I can put him
wise to a lot of things that a
man in love sometimes over
looks. If I do it, Delores' brother
might take it a little more ser
iously or he might laugh it off.
In either case, it is not likely
to make so much bad feeling.
I told Dolores she never should
have committed herself one way
or the other about any of her
brother's girl friends. Now she
sees that I was right about that.
She feels awful about being Re
sponsible for this mess.
The Council It is hard -to see
why John, who has perfectly
reasonable objections to his
wife's interference in this af
fair, thinks those objections will
disappear if the talk is "man-toman."
The facts that the brother
is of a mature age and "head-over-heels
in love" will not dis
appear, any more than will the
fact that the advice is "belated."
This couple has made marriage
plans and it will take real difi
culties between them to break
those plans. Interference from
John will antagonize the brother
just as much as advice from De- !
lores. i
It hasn't apparently occurred
to either Dolores or John that
they can be wrong about the girl.
It is possible to see personality
in many different ways. The
very things about this girl that
they term "nasty" may be the
ones Dolores brother finds en
chanting and he may see many
qualities they are unaware of.
Love is not always completely
blind. Indifference or dislike can
serve as blinkers too.
Dolores is wrong to feel "par
tially responsible" for her broth
er's love for this girl. Her in
itially favorable impression may
have pleased her brother at the
moment, but it is most unlikely
to have been the spark that set
things in motion.
She and John should keep
hands off.

words "scenic wonderland" to
appear on Oregon license plates
passed with only one negative
vote. The bill eliminated provi
sions to reflectorize the plates at
a cost of some $800,000.
The House failed to grant Rep.
Robert Kelmsen's tongue-in-cheek
request that the motto on
the plates be changed to "no
sales tax."
Installment payments of in
come tax bills of $25 or less
would be prohibited by House
Bill 241 which also was consid
ered favorably. Rep. Wayne
Giesy, Monroe Republican, said
the move would eliminate about
20,000 operations a year by the
cdmmission.
Salem (U.R) Senate Bill 61
prohibiting motorists from driv
ing with parking lights only was
passed unanimously. It was the
first of a group of bills designed
to make driving regulations uni
form in Western states.
Salem (U.R) Also passing
the House was Senate bill 61
which would make out-of-state
motor vehicle licenses good in
Oregon until the time they ordin
arily would have to be renewed
in the other state.
Salem (U.R) The House
voted favorably on House Joint
Resolution 13 which calls for a
constitutional amendment to in
crease legislator's pay from S600
tc $1,000 a year and gives them
an expense account. The people
would have to vote on the change
in 1958.
