The AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF FAMILY RELATIONS, 928? Sunset Boulevard. Los Angeles 2sy California. Have You A Clinging Vine In-Law? "I love .n, but his mother makes my life miserable. I hate in-laws!" ! In-laws, especially those who "live in," cause' as much diffi culty as sexuaf adjustment, alco holism, and finances which are among the' major woes in marriage. Newspapers carry stories of mothers - in - law accompanying honeymooners, or of a possessive parent riding with Sonny in the Artists To Hold Fair in Ashland Southern Oregon Society of Artists has announces plans to hold another Greenwich Village type art fair in Lithia park, Ash land, in conjunction with . the Shakespearean Festival. The fair will be held Sunday, Aug. 11. All members of the group are expected to enter works in the fair.Qmd the public is invited to attend.

Dance Announced In Grants Pass . All square dancers of south ernern Oregon are invited to at tend a dance at the Josephine county fairgrounds Saturday, August 3, at 8:3$ p.m. Caller will be Harley Smith, Los Angels, said to be one of the west's most popular callers. The dance is being sponsored by Cavemen Squares of Grants Pass. As a special attraction, Mr. Smith and his wife will give an i exhibition of round dancing. front seat of the car while "the young wife sits alone in the back. The public finds these tales funny, for in-laws are always good for. a laugh -until the stories become a reality. Living with in-laws is difficult at any time, butis particularly dangerous in- the first . year of marriage. A new marriage is full of adjustments, which can best be made alone. Cpmpromises are reached most satisfactorily by the young couple working to ward them without interference of outsiders. Women cause more difficulties than men, and a father-in-law is often more welcome than a mother-in-law. The father of the husband creates fewer problems than does the father of the wife, while tha mother of the wife tends to adjust better, than does the mother of the husband. In-laws, of course, can be friends. It is possible to live peaceably and pleasantly with them. Some are more facile at making adjustments, more skilled in living cooperatively, and more understanding and considerate of outside problems. Wnh patience and an attempt to see the others' standpoint, on both sides, in-laws may live with their children happily. If at all possib, each should have a room of his own, where he may be by himself at least part of the time. Living arrangements, daily schedules, and responsibilities should be clearcut and accepted by all. Cooperative living is both a challenge and a triumph, well worth an earnest effort. 4 Plan Dance Central Point Happy Har vesters will hold a square dance Saturday, August 3, at 8:30 p.m. at the American Legion hall, Central Point. J. D. Lubbers will call and potluck refreshments will be served.
