Written for the United Press
In the midst of the most
eventful week of Christ's life
among men, this week of rap
id action, comes Wednesday.
And it comes with the strange
dramatic effect that we expe
rience in unexpected silence.
Christ appears on this day
not to have gone into the city
but to have spent its hours
quietly with His friends and
disciples in Bethany. The tri
umphal entry and the cleans
ing of the temple are behind
Him. The last supper and the
arrest and crucifixion lie
ahead.
Few of us would question
the real value of Christian
faith in dealing with the dra
matic crises of our lives. It
may be much more important
Grange Notes
Upper Rogue Grange
A farewell party, a potluck
dinner, was given Saturday,
March 29, by Upper Grange
and its Home Economics club
in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Herb
Carlton, with the Home Eco
nomics club in charge. The
Carltons, long-time residents
of the Prospect-Trail area, are
moving to Ashland.
Members of Upper Rogue

Robert Bitterling of Eagle
Point, and families of the
Carltons' son and daughters,
the Jack Carltons of Trail;
the Leland Netherlands of
Medf ord and the Claude Gar
retts of Ashland.

club. Music for dancing was
furnished by Steven and Rob
ert Hoag and Don Gillespie,
and games were played in the
dining hall.

members of Upper Rogue
Grange for many years; Carl
ton has held various offices
including that of master for

Upper Applegate Grange
The Upper Applegate
Grange held its meeting
March 28 with Overseer Pearl
Byrne presiding. Master Men
no Bachmann and Mrs. Bach
mann were absent.
Mr. and Mrs. Poe and Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Perl, members

visitors. Mrs. Alice D. Hib
bard was voted to become a
member.
Chaplain Mildred Redhead
said that she ha1 received a
call from William DeShazzo
who is home for a brief stay
to attend his business here. He
said Mrs. DeShazzo is some
improved from injuries she re
ceived in an auto accident last
January. She is still in the
Merced hospital and it has
been necessary to keep day
and night nurses for her. De
Shazzo feels encouraged in
the fact t'-'it Mrs. De Shazzo
rouses occasionally from a
coma to recognize members of
the family. He hopes that
soon they will be able to move
her to Los Angeles. Her ad
dress is: General hospital,
Merced. Calif.
DeShazzo asked that his
thanks and appreciation for
the many cards and letters be
extended to friends here, as
it is impossible for him to
answer all of them at this
time.

member, and pointed out that

for us to realize God's pres
ence, His being, in the un
eventful, unrecorded, days of
our lives.
More Important
It may be more important
because there are many more
of them and they lie for all
of us somewhere between the
high moments. Ordinary days
come in between birth and
death, between decision and
consequency. What happens
on those common days affirms
or denies what went before,
and shapes the events to
come.
This day, then, can say
much to us because of its set
ting and because of its quiet,
because it speaks to us more
of being than of doing. It re
minds us that God acts not
only in great world-shaking
events but also on ordinary
days.
Here are all persons on a
common day (what I do last
Wednesday?) affirming or de
nying all that has gone be
fore, and preparing for all
that is to come.
Mostly in Bethany
To find Christ on such a
day simply "being, in Betha
ny" is helpful because most
of our days are of this sort.
They are spent where we are,
with our friends, doing the
same things we always do and
it is on such days that our be
ing, the manner of our living,
the way in which we. meet
our friends, confirms or de
nies what has been and shapes
what is to be.
Christ may have been
tempted on this day knowing
what lay ahead. Certainly He
prayed and thought, and sure
ly His love flowed from life
to life as He talked and ate
and planned with His friends.
He went on from Wednes
day to the mighty acts of the
days to follow. Men ever since
have stood in thankful won
der beneath the cross. But the
cross is related to His being
on Wednesday, as all the
great days of life arerelated
to the uneventful days. In or
dinary meetings and common
tasks our real being consists
and' it is them that His love
may most surely be lived.
Denationalization
Demanded in France
Paris (IB Private industry
demanded today that the gov
ernment denationalize some
of the industries which had
been paralyzed by a 24-hour
general strike.
Tuesday's strike by nearly
one million government em
ployees effectively bottled up
the nation's rail system, halt
ed bus lines and crippled air
service. The 24-hour walkout
was a warning of more labor
trouble to come unless the
government bows to union de
mands for a 20 per cent pay
raise.
son county's economic liveli

does not receive more public

HEC chairman covering six
counties in the state, and rep
resenting 64 .granges, present
ed the National Certificate of
Merit to Mrs. Edna Sawyer,
for the Upper Applegate
grange, as an award for com

outlined by the National
Grange.
The certificate, the only one
awarded in Jackson county, is
signed by the National Grange
Master, Herschel D. Newsome,
and National Economics Chair

by this grange through efforts
of Mrs. Sawyer in efficiently
executing her duties as HEC
chairman.
The attendance "kitty" was
won by Verna Culy and Eliza

the membership "jackpo t"
winner. Since Mrs. Nostrand
was not present, the jackpot
remains for next meeting.

15 feet into the 100-foot deep
pool below the dam.
The group, sponsored by.
Alhambra's Fremont Youth

passed through the lock.
Unander Proposes
Access Road Fund
Springfield (IP) State
Treasurer Sig Unander, a
candidate for the Republican
nomination for governor of
Oregon, says he has a self
liquidating plan that could
bring as much as $150 million
to Oregon for the construction
of access roads in national
forests.
Unander proposed the es
tablishment of a federal en
tity in corporate form under
direction of the secretary of
agriculture to be known as
the National Forest Self
Liquidating Conserva tion
fund.
The Corporation would
issue its revenue bonds to
the secretary of the treasury
for sale on the open market.
The interest rate would be
established by the secretary
of the treasury. The access
road system would be con
structed with funds from the
sale of the bonds and the
bonds would be retired
throul charges for use of
the roads.
Unander said he will sub
mit the plan to Oregon's con
gressional delegation for
study.
Birmingham Bus
Drivers Walk Out
Birmingham, Ala. (IP)
The South's second major
transit strike in less than a
week paralyzed Birming
ham's city bus system at mid
night Monday.
Members of the Amalga
mated Street Car Union voted
369-14 to walk out unless the
bus company met its demand
for a wage hike of 23 cents an
hour.
The transit firm made a
final offer, just before the
deadline, of six cents an hour
immediatley and a four-cent
hike next year. Mayor James
W. Morgan met with both
sides in an effort to bring
about a compromise, but was
unsuccessful.

Everyone was aware of the
chemistry classes' latest ex
periment. Hydrogen sulfide was pro
duced from hydrogen perox
ide and ferrous sulfide. The
classes then made numerous
tests with the hydrogen sul
fide. A cheerful touch for the
home economics room is the
addition of new curtains. Mrs.
Evelyn Polas, instructor, said
some of the homemaking stu
dents sewed them in their
spare time. The curtains
which are a soft green cotton,
are made in the" "cafe cur
tain" style.
Eighteen qualified students

Portland Rose Test
Gardens Damaged
Portland (IP) The famed
International Rose Test Gar
dens in Portland's Washing
ton park suffered damage es
timated at more than $1000
over the weekend,' according
to the superintendent of
parks.
Harry Buckley said the
vandalism was "deliberate
and senseless" destruction.
Four large trellisses of alumi
num were smashed, 51 pre
mium rose displays were up
rooted and shredded and one
20-foot climber rose was cut
to pieces.
Buckley said there was no
apparent motive for the dam
age except a desire to destroy.
It will set back some displays
for the 1958 Rose Festival, he
said.

The band will participate

They will also compete in the
large groups contest festival

The annual spring concert
will be presented by the cho
rus and band the first week
in May. Both groups will also
perform for the graduation
exercises.
The following music stu

"The Choice is Yours," a
film sponsored by the Na
tional Women's Temperance
league, was shown to the sen
ior English classes Wednes
day. The object of this film
was to show the effects of al
cohol on the blood stream and
the brain after one drink was
taken.
Statistics show that the
most dangerous drivers are
the ones who have had two or
three drinks and still believe
they have full control over
their emotions.
With just 10 weeks of
school left, the PHS typing

big project of the year.
The nroiect is a typing prac

The Family Council
Editor's note: The Family Council consists ot judge, a psychiatrist,
three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers.
Each article Is a summary ot an actual report The Family Council does
not give advice; It merely reports on problems that have been dealt
with by responsible agencies and counselors.
Carolyn S. She should
make him suffer.
Betty M. I know when I'm
licked.
. Carolyn S. I am trying to
stop my sister from taking a
disastrous step.
Several months ago, after a
marriage of six years, she
learned that her husband had
been having an affair with an
other woman. When she con
fronted him he readily admit
ted it and said he wanted a
divorce.
My sister is heartbroken
and is ready to go ahead and
do as he asks. I say she is
crazy. This thing may pass off
as suddenly as it happened.
Her husband is infatuated,
and I don't think he realizes
what he is doing. In any case,
why make it easy for him?
She should make him suffer
as he has made her suffer.
Betty M. It won't make
me suffer any less to make my
husband suffer more. He has
hurt me and the two children
so much already I almost wish
I'd never see him again.
As for its being infatuation,
I doubt it. I have seen this
woman and she happens to be
a real beauty. She is several
years younger than I am and
has money besides. In short,
my husband has everything to
gain. Why would he ever
come back tp me?
I'm trying to be realistic for
my sake and the children's
sakes. I know when I'm lick
ed and I don't see any sense
torturing myself fighting a
losing battle.
The Council Betty is hurt
and her feeling of despair is
understandable, but she is al
lowing her emotions to cloud
her best judgment at this
time.
She is wrong in believing
that all is krt because the
other woman is rich, young
and beautiful. She knows
nothing about the other wom
an's personality and probab
ly little about her relationship
with her husband.
Betty has resources which
she underestimates. A six
year marriage and two young
children are no small items.
Over the years she and her
husband must have developed
many strong, meaningful ties.
Her love for her husband and
children should be the spur to
quicken her desire to put up
a fight.
It is true that the battle
could be a losing one, but
surely it is worth fighting.
There should be no haste in
such an important matter.
The time might come when
Betty and her husband would
regret hasty action.
We don't think there is
much point in Betty's focus
ing her interest on trying to
make her husband suffer. As
long as she does this, she
would be living a miserable,
vengeful existence which
would leave her with little de
sire or energy for building a
happier life for herself.
But we do think that Betty
ought to take plenty of time
to put up a positive fight for
her home. She can't be licked
until she has fought.
