Muriel N. want to be a switchboard operator. Mrs. D. N. We can give her the best of everything. Muriel N. I am a girl of 26. I am handicapped and spent most of life in a wheel chair. Partly through medical treat ment and partly through my own will power I have now be come able to get around. It's as though a new world has opened to me. There is so much I want to do and see. My par ents and I stopped at a resort hotel recently and the hotel owners let me operate the sw itch board for a while in the evening. It was so exciting I decided I wanted to train for this work and take a job. My parents are against it be cause they have plenty of money to provide for me.

Her parents' idea of what is best for her would place her back in the wheel chair, psycho logically. The parents have lost their balance at suddenly find ing that this child, to whom they have dedicated themselves, is stepping into the world under her own steam. It has so upset the way of life to which they have grown accustomed that they are clinging to that psycho- MEDFORD (OHEGOrt) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE Stassen To Present U.S. Plans Next Week London W U.

Muriel should get her training for a job that is probably with in her physical limitations. Her physicial resources probably have not begun to be tapped and her enthusiasm will give her even more energy.
