The Family Council does not five advlee; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt I vita by responsible agencies and .counselors. y Mary R-I owe my parents special consideration. Mary Rv-My husband and I are in our mid-20s and we have been married a little more than a year. We have quite a lot of serious disagree- " ments about one special mat-ter-my parents. My parents are elderly and live near us. I have a brother and sister who live in a dif ferent state and only ' visit my parents twice a year. Two - years ago my youngest sister was killed in an accident, so naturally my folks are quite lonely and in depressed state of mind. I feel that It Is up to me to cheer them up. I make it my business to see them every night. My husband says he doesn't want to go over there every night so I go alone. Then he is furious that I leave him alone. He says that he should come first. But I feel that in this case I owe my parents some spe cial consideration. Harry HMarried life cer , tainly is not what I expected -It to be. The day after we re turned from our honeymoon Mary insisted upon spending the whole evening with her parents. I wanted to enjoy be- lng alone In our new home, but nothing doing. I feel that when a woman : gets married she's got to put i her husband before her par I nt. That'a what marriage is ' all about and everyone agrees with me. The way things are : now we may as well have : remained single. When I get home after a hard day's work I like to get into comfortable clothing and relax in an easy chair over the newspapers or TV. I don't want to have to make conversation with anyone's parents-including my own. But I would like to have my wife with me. Here I am, married a year, sitting home alone every night of the week. The Council: Harry draws a sad portrait of himself, in deed. However, it appears to us he is partially responsible for creating this melancholy picture. . . The issue "who comes first, me or your parents?" is a rather childish one. Harry is like & little boy who says "if you loved me you would give me-the biggest piece of cake." He retreats in a sulk if for some reason Mother is unable to give it to him. It is true that marriage partners are pledged to one another-'forsaking all oth-ers"-but this pledge has a larger interpretation than Harry chooses to place on it. What is involved is a pledge to share in one another's feelings and needs, not sim ply to consume one another's physical and psychic ener gies. Mary says "I owe my par ents some special considera tion," but if her marriage were established on a more satisfactory level, the state ment might be "we owe my parents. . ." Mary and Harry are now a unit and should Charges Dismissed Against Shockley Charges of making a false statement in writing were dis missed - Friday against Ken neth Wayne Shockley, box 612, Jacksonville. x Shockley has made full restriction, has enlisted in the Navy and is now on ac tive duty, the district attor ney's office said. The eharges involved issung a bad check Jan. 3, 1958. Elbert Lionel Hawks, 1017 West 10th st.,. Medford, who is charged with petty larceny, was fined $50 in district court and received a 30-day sus pended sentence. Hawks was placed on probation :for two months; He was charged, with taking groceries from, the Groceteria. The difference between the winter and summer tempera tures . in parts of central Alaska may.be as much as 170 degrees Fahrenheit. try to function as such." Basic principles aside, we do feel that Harry has good reason to complain about not having his wife at home eve nings. Spending every single evening at the home of par ents certainly sounds like quite a bit too much even if Mary and Harry did it to ether. We doubt very much whether the parents expect or even want so much atten tion. We do believe, however, that if Harry showed under standing and consideration for Mary's feelings about her parents, it would be much easier to arrive at a compro mise. , (Copyright 1958, General - : Features Corp.)

Ways to boost Oregon's per capita income, now less than the national average, pros pects for new industries, and community problems of in dustrial expansion, taxes, and education needs are among issues up for discussion. 'Fact Sheets' Informal discussion groups will be armed with brief, in formation - packed "fact sheets" on Oregon resources and current problems. Fores try, agriculture, and Oregon's $400 million annual export import trade are among topics reviewed with an eye to the future. The illustrated fact sheets are "1859 - 1959 . . . Building Today's Oregon," the introductory program featur ing Oregon history; and "What Frontiers in Oregon's Fu ture?" for the second week's discussion. Information on how to or ganize neighborhood discus sion groups and obtain study materials are available from county "Great Decisions" councils, State Chairman Mrs. Mabel Mack, Oregon State college extension service, said. Details may also be obtained from local county extension agents. The Oregon Centennial, coupled with requests last year from Oregon Great De cisions groups for "some Ore gon issues," prompted the Oregon flavor in this year's public affairs discussion series, Mrs. Mack stated. Foreign Policy Following discussion of Oregon issues, groups will continue an 8-week study of foreign policy issues with fact sheets prepared by the For eign Policy association, a non profit, nonpartisan, educa tional agency. uregon fact sheets were prepared by Oregon State col lege staff members in coop eration with state organiza tions and agencies and the FPA. Newspapers, television, and radio stations will also review the Oregon and for eign policy issues and the pro gram is scheduled for many high school social studies classes. Great Decisions is carried statewide through the OSC extension service in coopera tion with the FPA, the gen eral extension division of the state system of higher educa tion, the state department of education, state library, and some 25 state organizations. The "word Texas, or Tejas, is derived from the Spanish pronunciation of a Caddo In dian meaning "friends." Try and Stop Me -By BENNETT CERF- LITTLE OLD LADY tottered to a front pew in church, and was so visibly moved by the preacher's sermon that she dropped a twenty-dollar bill in the collection plate. Suddenly, however, she gaveanejacu- rl lation of dismay, literally MCfc with the collection plate, and extracted her twenty dollar bill. "What's the mat ter?" queried the collector. Explained the reverential lady, "I just discovered I'm in the wrong church." Vernon Duke, who wrote that haunting song "April in Paris," points out the vast difference between a composer and a songwriter. A compos er, he says, is a man who knows his craft; a songwriter writes Wta. George S. Kaufman reports that he's met what Is unquestionably the Champion bore of New York. "Other bores," he says, "have sometimes cornered me in corners but this one cornered me In the middle of a big drawing room!'' 0 1959. by Bennett Cert.
