I feel it is terrible that our little daughter will have no sis - ters or brothers and I want to adopt a child or take in foster children. After all, our daughter Helen, will have a hard time getting along with other children because of her handicap. She needs companionship and it is our responsibility to see that she has friends.

Now we can de-' vote ourselves entirely to Helen. ' She needs all our care. I My financial outlook is not too good. If we have no other chil-l dren. we can send Helen to pri-j vate schools, special camps and give her the best of everything.

But I am afraid that when there is another child or children in the household, she will become more aware of how different she is from others. Why look for trouble? The Council: The question Cora and Eugene pose is: W'hich would be belter for our handi capped daughter a brother or si'ter or private schools and oth er special advantages? The answer is that it is im possible to predict this. Helen may gain from either or both Feature Indicates Medford School System 'Excellent' How does the Medford school system rale in comparison to others throughout the nation? This question was asked by a Mail Tribune reader last week, who had read a feature article in the Family Weekly supple ment to the Sunday Mail Tribune of May 26. The article gave a series of criteria for judging a school system. Gets Top Hating The reader suggested that Med ford's schools be rated on the questions given in the article. This has been done, and Med fofd shows up as "excellent." Total possible points from the quiz are 36. or 3 points per question, with Medford schools making 31. Divisions in the article and Medford's results for each follow: Average expenditure per year per child, more than $300, three points: students per teacher, be tween 25 and 30. two points; pay for teachers, more than S4.200. three points: average students per elementary schools, more than 300. two points. High School Enrollment Average high school enroll ment, between 300 and 1.000 three points (Medford high school will surpass 1.000 next year, however ): number of teachers ! per child holding doctor's or master's degree, between 10 and 30 per cent, two points: number : of teachers per school with 1 j "emergency certificate," less! than 10 per cent, three points; ! ; number of high school students ! ' w ho drop out before graduation, j less than half, three points: per- j centage of high school gradu-i ales w ho go on to colege, 30 to j 40 per cent, two points. Special services, special in- j struction for speech and other j basic deficiencies, and psychia- j trie counseling, all three, three ; points: physical education pro-; grams, regular instruction plus ; interscholastic and intramural j athletic competition, three points and playground facilities, be tween two and five acres play ground per school, two points. Answers to the quiz are based on a national survey taken by the White House Conference on Education. Medford Man Found Innocent of Charge Roy Reynolds, 36. of North Fir st., was found innocent by circuit court jury' Wednesday of driving while under the influ ence of intoxicating liquor.'

In her distress about Helen, Cora's thinking has gone way off the track on the subject of adoption or faking in foster children. She has no right to take a child solely to be used as a companion for her daugh ter. She could not get one on this basis from any reliable agency. If she and her husband love children and want to have more of them, that is another story. Any other child brought into the household should be brought 1 the only basis on which Helen 1 can have the real experience of j living witn a sister or brother.
