The Family Council Editor's note: The Froll Council consists ot a Judge a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspapei editor a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and eoduelors. Lydia D. Mother has been betting. Mrs. M. F-There's no moral law against fun. Lydia D. I am all upset about my mother, a 70-year-old widow who seems to have suddenly gone off her track, or should I say on the track? Mother has always been a strait-laced, religious woman. Recently she met a man her own age, who has spent most of his life gambling and bet ting on the horses. For some reason he and Mother took a liking to one another and they go off to watch the races near ly every day. Mother has been Equipment Reported Taken from Home Sites Equipment valued at more than $240 owned by A. R. Dubs, contractor, was report ed stolen from two building sites Tuesday, according to city police. Taken from a site at 2824 Country Club dr. were a Vz inch electric drill and a belt sander while a vibrator sand er and - a keyed lock were taken from 2425 Nieto Way. Reporting the thefts was Rob ert Haymond Myers, 1101 Woodrow lane. Portland - 01PD - George E. Berry of Beaverton is low of 12 bidders at $135,754 for miscellaneous alterations and repairs at The Dalles Dam. betting and claims she has been winning so far, but what'll happen - when she doesn't win? Her income is very small. Mostly I'm concerned about everyone knowing all about this. It's terribly embarrassing to me when I see my friends watching her go off with this man. She should at least have consideration for me and my children. Mrs. M. F. - In the three months I've been at this, I've made quite a bit of money. Maybe I've had beginner's luck, but my boy friend says I'm really terrific, and I've no system - just intuition. I've always had a lot of intuition, been strait-laced and religious -well, maybe I was a little too strait-laced. Anyway I'm still religious. I can't see what that has to do with it. There's no moral law against fun. ' I don't really care what my daughter and her nosy, gossipy friends say about me, but it does make me mad when my daughter is rude to my boy friend. When he calls for me, she leaves him stand ing in the middle of the living room with his coat on. She doesn't even ask him to sit down. The Council: This looks to us like a clear - cut case of jealousy. We can't see any other reason why young women can't find anything better to do than observe and condemn the conduct of a 70- year-old woman. Carefree, . admired, stimu lated by success, Mrs. M. F. goes off every day to enjoy herself, leaving behind a lot of bored shallow, cantanker ous females. Probably Lydia and her friends are disgusted by the narrowness of their own horizons and project their resentment on the only female they happen to know who is not like them. The fact that Lydia has no recognition of her own go'od fortune in having an elderly mother who is healthy, happy, resourceful and independent indicates that she does not allow the smallest beam of common sense to enter the small, dark chamber of her mind. Because of this, her sour disposition will undoubt edly gain fuller and fuller sway over her as time goes on. We hate to imagine her at 70. Mrs. M.F. should realize, however, that her present gambling ' success cannot go on indefinitely. Lydia is right to caution her on that score. In the long run the gambler an't TrceiVlw win tiro would suggest that Mrs. M.F. : set herself a very small allow- j ance from her small income for the purpose of having an afternoon of fun - not for the purpose of making extra money.
