The Family Council Editor's note; The rnUl) Council consists ot a judge a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actnal report. The Family Council does not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselor. Lydia S.-Dad's choice is just awful. Otto. J.-1'm old enough to make up my own mind. Lydia S.-My sister and I are young married women and we are trying to save our dad from making a terrible mis take. Our mother died a year ago. She and Pad had about the happiest marriage I've ever seen. I realize that those who have been happily married often make second marriages after a spouse has died. My sister and I have no complaints on that score. We want Dad to marry again. However, Dad has chosen a woman who is just awful. She is loud and vulgar and de manding. She'll never be sat isfied with the living Dad can provide. She is used to furs and jewels and elegant places. Dad must be blind not to see these things. How can he choose someone so different from Mom? Local Witnesses Return From Circuit Meeting Completing three full days of gaining new spiritual in spiration and sharing their faith and beliefs with others, Jehovah's Witnesses conclud ed their "Be a Teacher of the Good News" circuit conven tion Sunday. The final day of the Bible seminar at the Lassen county fairgrounds, Susanville, Calif., reached its peak attendance of 976. This was the first conven tion ever held in Susanville by the Witnesses and it set a new record in attendance and activity for the organization in this area, T. R. Thompson, presiding minister of the lo cal congregation, ' announced today. Keynote speaker was Eu gene D. Rosam Jr., from world headquarters, Brook lyn, N.Y., who spoke on "A Paradise Earth Through God's Kingdom." Saturday's sessions includ ed the baptism of 21 new ministers at the Roosevelt Elementary school pool. The closing session fea tured Lloyd B Aldrich, cir cuit minister, discussing "Ap preciating Your Privileges at the. World's End." Conven tion chairman, Eugene D. Rosam Jr., brought the three day Bible conference to a close with the talk, "A teach er of Work Never to Be Du plicated." Gibbons, the anthropoid apes found in Malaya', rarely exceed three feet in height. Olio J.-My daughters are giving me a real hard time. They seem to think parents are supposed to get an okay from their children to make a marriage. I haven't managed to convince them that I'm old enough (62) to make up my own mind. I think the girls have just gotten a hate on this woman because she hasn't shown much interest in their family doings. She has never had children and has led an active life, having earned most of her money in her own busi ness. She says that family life bores her. I am trying to get her a little more interested in my family, but frankly I enjoy her different way of looking at things. I have had a new lease on life since I've been going out with her. The Council: These young women are definitely out of order in expressing these strong negative reactions to a woman their father likes. The fact that they compare her with their mother shows that they are too emotionally in volved to be able to give an objective opinion. This woman apparently has much to offer that is novel and intriguing to Otto. If her "loudiness and vulgarity" bothered him he would not have gotten to the point cf considering marriage. If the woman felt that she could not be satisfied with the living Otto can provide, she would not consider marrying him. A woman devoted to "furs and jewels and elegant places" to the exclusion of everything else would seek exactly these things. Apparently this woman has some means of her own and has now found, a male com panion she likes. Undoubtedly some of her resistance to "fam ily doings" is connected with a feeling of having been re jected by these opinionated daughters... Our " guess "if 'that these young women gave her a mighty cool reception. This, in turn, put her on her mettle and she was never able to re veal herself simply and na turally. Otto should not let his daughters undermine his feel ings. But he v should try to make sure of his own attitudes by seeing more of this woman among people outside of the family. If he is sure of him helf , he should go ahead with his plans. The daughters must try to realize that real con cern for their father will be shown in respect for his choice. If they learn to put their Own feelings in the back ground, they will undoubtedly find that the woman he cares for has much to recommend her. (Copyright 1959. General Features Corp.)
