The Family Council
Editor's note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist,
thre clergymen, a newspaper editor a women's editor and two writers Each
article is a summary of an actual report The Family Council does not jive
advice: It merely reports on problems that have keen dealt with by
responsible agencies and counselors.
Joan B. Everything seems to
fall flat for Cora.
Cora L. I just fill up time.
Joan B. I am very much con
cerned about my good friend,
who is a midle-aged woman a
widow with two married child
ren living in differentt cities.
She has a part-time job and a
small income left to her by her
husband. Her situation in life
may sound ideal, yet she is very
lonely and unhappy.
I have tried to interest Cora
in certain clubs and volunteer
work I like. It just doesn't seem
to take. She is a well-educated,
intelligent woman and the usual
routine jobs Bore her. I have
suggested that she do more en
tertaining and gadding about,
but this too seems to fall flat.
It seems to me that Cora ought
to marry again, but as she
points, out, free men of her age
are few and far between. Never
theless, I'm pretty sure this is
the answer and she should make
the effort.
Cora L. How does one go
about making an effort to do
something for which one has no
inclination? All my friends say
marry, marry, marry, yet I don't
see them producing the men to
marry. ,
. I am one of those unfortunate
individuals who have a good
over-all knowledge of many
things, but a talent for nothing.
Routine bores me, petty details
drive me wild. When I join a
club and they give me post cards
to address or lessons in hand
weaving, I know I've had it.
My children, my friends, my
relatives are all busy with their
own affairs. I entertain and visit
occasionally, but it doesn't fill
up the long, empty hours. Every
thing I do is just a matter of
filling up time, making the days
pass. Is this the way to live?
Surely there must be more
meaning, more sense in life than
this.
Th Council: Cora's sense of
futility and boredom seems to be
based in a deep, underlying
sense of being left out of life.
She points out other people
are busy, apparently with things
that really concern them, but she
alone must use activity to make
time pass. She seems to feel
other people could give her
something worthwhile, if they
had less concern about their own
affairs and a little more interest
in her.
Cora should recognize, how
ever, that it is not others who
have left her out of life. She
has shut herself out. Their af
fairs really concern them be
cause they bring warmth, love
and enthusiasm to even "petty
details." Those who are able to
contribute more than the routine
tasks owe it to themselves and
to others to make this contribu
tion. Of course, one cannot expect
to join a club and be immediate
ly delegated to policy-making
jobs. One cannot expect a "tal
ent" or an enthusiasm to descend
on one like a halo. Talents are
developed through effort, en
thusiasms are created by a na
ture seeking and fighting for
expressions, for things and per
sons to love.
Marriage happy marriage
is an outgrowth of full and
happy living, not a way out of
a dilemma or a means of filling
up emptiness. It would not give
Cora the "meaning" she seeks.
Perhaps it would help Cora to
recognize that her individuality
is absolutely unique. She un
doubtedly has something to of
fer, and somebody or something
needs what she can give. But
only she can find the form of her
contribution.

Peasant Look To Be Tops in Ski Fashions
PRINT SPORTSWEAR FOR
1958... was introduced by San
Francisco Designer Stephanie
Koret at California National
Press Week. Something new i3
the chino cotton print T-shirt ac
cented with cotton ribbing worn
with sleek matching print pants.
Bv MARY PRIME
United Press Staff Writer
Sun Valley, Ida. W A ski
fashion expert predicts that
skiers will be comin' down the
mountains next year in peasant
style clothes.
Fred Picard, who owns a shop
in this resort, says the peasant
look will be tops in both ski
fashions and after-ski styles in
1958.
He designs sports clothes and
has been technical advisor to two
consecutive Olympic uniform
committees.
Picard expects peasant designs
to dominate styles of jackets,
skirts, vests, sweaters and boots
because "the peasant look fits in
with the mountains."
He also expects a trend to bul
ky lines instead of slender lines
especially in ski outfits of con
trasting colors. Jackets will be
heavier looking, often quilted,
but still light in weight. The
reason for bulk, he said, is that
skiers want more comfort on
the slopes.
The Slender Look
One material which should be
popular is upholstery fabric,
combined with quilted linings.
Picard shows one such jacket
which comes in only two sizes
but which fits almost any wo-
i man.
! Ski pants will continue to
have a slender look next year
I and must be as well fitted as
slacks. Picard said, "but not too
tight." He is fighting the under-1
i . . - . i , . 1
wcai iuuk puyuiar in r.urope
the German-made ski pants
I which are so tight they seem
! molded to the skin.
1 Picard predicted that color
will be even more Important in
19D8. He said violet and pumpkin-orange
should be popular
for both jackets and pants.
Outfits either will match, giv
ing a one-piece look, or will con
trast sharpley.
Picard does not limit colorful
clothes to women. He believes
men soon will turn from con
servative navy and black ski
pants to bright colored pants,
either matching or contrasting
with jackets.

Refrozen Food Poor
Researcher Declares
Chicago (IP) Housewives
often are told not to refreeze
food that has thawed or partially
thawed. Most accept the advice
without really knowing the rea
son why.
A University of Illinois food
researcher said re-frozen food
won't taste as good nor will it
have as good a color or appear
ance. The texture also may be
changed because the freezing,
thawing, and refreezing process
could cause some of the food
cells to break down.
Actually nothing harmful hap
pens if the food has not reached
the temperature at which bac
teria start multiplying. The food
can be safely refrozen if it still
has a few Ice crystals.
For poached egg surprise,
spread a slice of toast with
cheese, then put a poached egg
on top. Cover with white sauce,
to which green peppers have
been added.
iu3iuigia jaia reason
Women Coecf Antiques
New York OP! Noslalgia
is the main reason women col
lect antiques, says a dealer.
"You start by trying to dupli
cate or replace an object you
remember fondly from a child
hood home," said Walter du Ver
rier, who exhibited his collection
at the New York Antiques fair.
"Next thing you know, you're
furnishing a home, or at least ac
cessorizing it, with relics of past
ages," he added.
Du Verrier suggested reading
widely on the general subject of
antiques. "Then narrow your
studies to a particular field. Visit
museums and restorations. Shop
around. And ask questions," he
said.

Lima Casserole
Here's a quick and easy way
to prepare a main dish for lunch
or supper. Also a wonderful way
to use up that left-over ham. Just
cook one package of frozen lima
beans and combine them with
one cup medium white sauce and
1 to It 2 cups cooked ham cut
into bite-size pieces. Put the
combination in a greased casse
role and heat in a moderate (350
degree) oven for about 15 min
utes. Chopped parsley and or
pimentos will add flavor and
color to this.
