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

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.

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.

Dior Returns - -To
Flapper Day
For New Styles
Pairs Ml Christian Dior
displayed a . controversial, con
tradictory style today that
plunged necklines to the waist
for evening wear, but" kept
dresses sacky and sexless day
time. ' .
In a silhouette evoking the
flapper days of the 20s, Dior
came up with an elongated al
mond shape which he called the
"Shuttle Line."
He shocked the fashion world
with murderously '.'oh-sc-low-as-
that" necklines for eveningl
wear. He also, raised skirts to 15
inches, which is short for Dior.
For daytime wear he created
a "Haunted Lady," sexless,
sacky silhouette.
Buyers and members of the
press crowded his grey-white
salon to gasp at his new dicta
tes, enhanced by something he
called 'The Golden Brassiere."
Wednesday's show saw - the
conversion of the slinky silho
uette into the long-legged "sugar
daddy" look, a definite return
of the Theda Bara vamp.
Jacques Heim's new line was
slinkier then ever, with 1 6-inch
and up hemlines dominating
his collection.
Dessert
Serve s dessert with a walnut
meringue shell filled with ice i
cream and golden canned cling
peach slices accented with a few
strawberries. . Fold jn finely
chopped walnuts when meringue
is ready for baking. Spoon ice
cream and . fruit into cooled
baked shell and serve at once.

Circulate Petitions

natures to prevent its becoming

Agricultural cnairman Ray
Frantz reported that cattle prices

er cattle have dropped slightly.
Egg prices have increased in all
