Bote: Tne Tamlly Council consists of a lodge, psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writen Eacb article is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not irive advice; It merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Hn, R. T. Jane is too dom ineering. Jane T. I am trying to help my mother. e e Mrs. R.T We are having a lot of trouble with our oldest daughter, 15-year-old Jane. She is so domineering, it is almost impossible to live with her. ' Jane wants to boss the three younger children and me as well. ! She'll have nothing at all to do with her father. She is con stantly rude to him and .won't even let him sign her report card because she says it's "none of his business." My husband is the gentlest man alive and has done nothing to make Jane feel this way about him. We feel that Jane is very un happy for reasons we simply can't understand. She does not date yet, but she has many girl friends and is doing well in school. She says she can't wait until she is old enough to go to work and is free of all of us. Jan T. My mother always defends my father, but he is rot ten to her. He never takes her out or buys her clothes. He never helps her around the house and she has to do all her own work. My mother can't seem to un derstand that I am trying to help her. My father has a weak character and never trained any of us to help our mother or to take care of our own things. When I try to make my sisters and brother do things, everyone yells that I am being a dictator. Sure I'm unhappy.' How could anybody be happy in a home like mine? My - mother has to work all the time, and my "father and sisters and brother iust enjoy themselves. My parents don't really love one another at all, but just stick together because o us. We would be better off if they got a divorce. The Council: Jane's picture of her family life is evidently a false one since her mother sees none of the issues that Jane raises. In fact, Mrs. R. T.'s only problem appears to be Jane. It seems that Jane is trying to eliminate her father and to establish herself as head of the household. The parents should try to straighten out the picture in Jane's mind. They should let her know they do love one an other and have no thought of divorce. Mrs. R. T. should give Jane no encouragement in the idea that she is being exploited. She should let Jane know that she loves her work as a wife and mother and invite the girl to join her in some of her feminine tasks. Mr. R. T. should insist upon exercising his authority as head of the household, including the signing of Jane's report card. Beyond this, Jane should be encouraged to release some of her turbulent energy outside of the home in school and in extra-curricular activities. This may help her to get through this difficult adolescent phase. However, there are some j rather deep-rooted reasons for Jane's attitude toward her par ents and, if the conflict in the home continues for too long, it might be advisable to see wheth er a family agency consultant would suggest some psychiatric help. (Copyright 1957. General Features Corp.) Holmes Urges Youths To Remain in School Portland Gov. Robert D. Holmes Friday endorsed the na tional Stay-in-School campaign sponsored by the U.S. labor, health-education and welfare, defense departments.

Current figures show that of the total number of youth enrolled in high schools in the Nation, about four out of ten fail to finish. Governor Holmes stated in part, "The young people of America constitute in my opinion our country's greatest natural resource. Therefore, it is every one's business to see to it that this resource is cultivated, en riched and offered opportunities for the greatest possible per sonal happiness and social use fulness. We should make educa tion opportunities available for every young person, doing all we can to improve standards of teaching and physical facilities."
