MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, The Family Council Editor's note: The rmll Council three clergymen, a newspaper editor Each article Is a summary "I an actual report, xne family council aoes not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Cynthia L. I am 25 and single and I live with my par ents in the community where was born and brought up. I have a fairly good job here, but it is not as good as what could get in a large city, I have a lot of experience and have taken courses to improve my skills. I would like to move to the city, not only for better job opportunities, but because I feel that I need a change. I have known all of the peo ple here my whole life through and I'd like to meet others. I was always some what of a misfit here be cause I don't enjoy the usual social activities. I love music and other cultural things that are more available in the city. My parents and older broth er and sister are in an uproar at the idea of my leaving home. Mrs. G. L. Like most young girls, Cynthia dreams of finding all kinds of glam our in the city. She has visit ed some of the biggest cities in the country on her vaca tions and she gets the idea that life there is one constant round of excitement. I have been trying to make her understand this isn't so. People have told me small town girls are just wasting away with loneliness in cities They are so desperate they go out on dates with anyone who asks them and men take advantage of the situation. We realize that Cynthia is finding it a problem to get settled with a suitable young man. Nearly all' of her friends are married and she feels left out of things. But we aren't isolated. There is a lot of so cial activity going on and she can find happiness here. Th Council: All of Mrs G. L.'s points are valid and JACKSONVILLE Smorgasbord Jacksonville The execu tive committee of the Jack sonville Parent-Teacher's as sociation met Monday, Dec. 29, with Mrs. Woodrow Davis presiding. Plans were discussed and the date of Feb. 21 was tenta tively set for the annual PTA smorgasbord. It was an nounced that the next PTA meeting will be held Wednes day, Jan. 14, and was stressed that everyone attend and come prepared to offer a sug gestion for a name for the grade school on Huener lane. The school, since its recent completion, has been known by various names such as The Pink School, The Little School on Huener's lane and other nick names.

Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Barney of Klamath Falls spent Christ mas holidays with Mr. and Mrs. William Campbell. Mrs. Barney is Mrs. Campbell's daughter.

En route home they visited Mrs. Camp bell's son and family, Mr. and Mrs. Allen Henry, and family in Wallowa, Ore., where they experienced minus four tem perature.

On Jan. 10 they left for Needles and went to Las Vegas and Tecopa Hot Springs where they are spending some time before returning home. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Bair, Tuesday, January 13, 1959 11 consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist, a women's editor and two writers. well worth serious consider ation. Nevertheless, Cynthia is old enough to make a stab at this adventure if she feels a strong desire for it and is aware of the problems she'll face. Most young women "wast ing away with loneliness in cities come totally unpre pared for what they must face. They move into a wom an's residence where they meet hundreds of girls like themselves or they take tiny apartments where they meet nobody. They expect to make friends through their jobs, but the opportunities more limit ed than they expected. City dwellers tend to be rather impersonal on the job. The girls find that there are lots of shows, concerts and lec tures but that these events cannot substitute for warm human relationships. The out-of-town girl living in a city overlooks the obvious fact that these human ties are vital to mental health. City residents really live much the way people do in small towns Their circle of friends and relatives, their important home life, their most intimate ties, are basic. The bright city life around them is some thing to be taken from time-to-time when they crave ex citement. Most seasoned city dwellers would fall apart emotionally and psychologi cally if they had to live, for an extended period, the life of the out-of-town girl. If Cynthia's desire ' to go to the city is strong, we would suggest that she make up her mind to board with a fam ily as much like her own as possible and that she join a church group immediately. Then she'll be off to a rea sonably good start. She'll have a chance of enjoying city life. (Copyright 1958, General Features Corp.)
