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 counselors. Mona R. We are jinxed here I want to move away Jack R. It could have happened anywhere else. Mona R. Two years ago my husband got a better job with his company in a differ ent community. We had to move far away from our fam ily and friends and take the children out of a school they loved. I didn't want to move, but the raise in salary and posi tion for my husband was a big temptation. Now I feel that we should not have been so greedy because everything has worked out for the worst here. We have really had the most terrible run of luck accidents, financial losses and an awful lot of trouble with our new home. Just about everything has gone wrong with it and I can't seem to get it into anything like liva ble shape. I want Jack to request an other transfer anywhere to get away from here. I think he" should do this for me, but he doesn't want to. Jack R. It is true that ,ae last two years have been :ike a nightmare here. Every day it's something else. One thing on top of another. Noth ing seems to work out right and smoothly. Just the same I was brought up to believe you make your own luck and I can't believe that someone or something is jinxing things for us. Maybe a lot of these same things would have happened any where else. . When I consider the finan cial loss we've had, for in stance, I point out to "ona that the money was invested while we lived in the old com munity. I made the mistake then. We have only suffered the results now. I realize it has been very rough on Mona, being so far from her family and friends and all of that, but I think that in time things will straighten out and we'll be happy here. The Council: When things seem jinxed they often are by the very people who claim to be the victims. Nearly all of us hurt our selves if we do things un willingly, halfheartedly o r with guilty feelings." Ancient legends and myths lay much stress on "purity of heart" for the accomplishment of diffi cult feats. The hero who finds the buried treasure or Holy Grail is often a fool in the eyes of the world, but his deep, dedicated desire to ac complish his missioa, his free dom from ulterior motives put him way ahead of the merely greedy, the confused and the half-hearted. This is a dramatic way of stating the simple fact that when we do things out of love and the desire to do well, ob stacles: seem unimportant and we are less vulnerable to ac: cidents and errors. We don't turn our heads away at the wrong moment, or place the ladder in a peculiar position. Without seeming to think about it too much, all our movements and our ideas are directed toward successful completion of whatever we undertake. Mona's problem and her jinx are in her mind. She has not decided that she wants to live in the new community even for her husband s sane, f he wants him rather to move away for her sake. She has NO ONE STOPPED London (UPD A man lay bleeding to de? th in Piccadilly Circus for 30 minutes and no passersby stopped to help him, police reported.

This doesn't indi cate that she has learned to find much satifaction in her roles as wife and mother. She needs to accept and enjoy tnese roles or she will find little happiness in any part of the country. (Copyright 1959, General Features Corp.)
