The Family Council Editor's Note: The Family Council consists of Judge, m psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers, fcach article Is a summary of an aetaal ease history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Marjoria S. - I want our own home. - Jack S. - Things will be much harder for all of us. Marjoria S. - My husband and I have been married four years and we are expecting a second child in a few months. Our problem revolves around my mother-in-law with whom we are living. - Jack's mother is a widow who owns her own home. She was nice enough to invite us to live with her rent-free un til we got on our feet finan cially. At the time we were married, Jack expected a pro motion which didn't come through. He is still making the same salary he was four years ago. I feel that if we didn't live here, Jack would get out and hustle for another job or a promotion. His mother is very nice but living with her isn't easy. She has her own way of doing things, and I don't feel free to change anything. I want to move now before our baby is born. Jack S. Margie sure has chosen the right time to in sist upon moving. With the new baby on the way, the bills are already piling up. If we move we must buy furni ture as well. Rents in our area are very high. We would have to take a tiny place. At my mother's we have the run of the house and a backyard as well. - Aside from this, even Mar gie admits my mother is a swell person and very helpful to her. She is willing to baby sit every night if we want it. She does most of the cooking, but is always willing to let Margie take over. It seems a shame to leave my mother alone in the big house for no reason at all and to make things harder for our selves and our children when she is so willing to help us. I just want Margie to be reason able about this thing. The Council Jack offers many apparently good reasons for going on doing as he wish es but he has a blind spot where his wife's wishes are concerned. Marjorie is well aware of the various advantages offered in her mother-hvlaw's home and she is honest enough to make no trumped-up excuses for wanting to leave. She ad mits her mother-in-law is "nice," but maintains that she wants to feel more free. She also feels that the free-rent deal has broken down her hus band's incentive to better him self. .. J These appear to us to be two pretty good reasons and Jack has failed to offer one reply to them. He apparently discounts them as of no im portance, yet these factors are !

Every woman wants to set up a nest of her own, free from the domination of an older woman. No matter how humble this home is, a young woman will take more pride in it and have far more joy in it than she would in an other woman's palace. She should not be deprived of this satisfaction unless forced by circumstances beyond control. A man takes or should take a similar satisfaction in being the sole support of his family. Easy money is a temptation to everyone, but real' bargains are very rare in life. Most of us pay through the nose when we attempt to get something for nothing. Jack may have given up many possibilities for advancement simply be cause, his comfortable situa tion left him cozy and sluggish rather than alert. When young couples must live with in-laws it is far bet ter for the young pair to have the larger responsibility in the home. The older person should try to adjust to a less prominent role in the house hold. (Copyright 1959, General Features Corp.) Back in 1950, a tall, quiet- spoken artist submitted a comic strip to United Feature Syndicate, Inc., New York, for consideration. Almost im mediately, the editors decid ed the strip would be a good one. Thus was born the comic strip "Peanuts" by Charles M. Schulz. During the nine years the strip has been syn dicated, it has generated a constant flow of surprising ly devoted fan mail, and has become popular throughout the country. Schulz was born in Minnea polis and after graduating from high school took a cor respopdence course in art. He was about to embark on his cartoonist career when World War II interfered. Drawi Panel Cartoons After the war, he started drawing panel cartoons for magazines, and sold several to the Saturday Evening Post and other periodicals. For a while, he was an instructor in an art school. In 1949, he sent several panel cartoons to United Fea ture Syndicate in New York, The syndicate said it would be more interested if the car toons were developed in com ic-strip form rather than sin gle panel cartoons. Schulz drew up a few daily strips, and arrived in New York on a rainy morning. Tucking the drawings under his coat to keep them dry, he immediately went to the of fice, where he left the draw ings with a receptionist since the editors had not yet arrived. He went out for breakfast, and by the time he returned, the editors had seen the draw ings and decided it would make a good comic strip. The strip, which is distri buted to newspapers through out the world, has won phen omenal popularity among readers of all ages and has earned for Schulz the 1956 "Cartoonist of the Year" award of the National Car toonist society, the 1958 "Hu morist of the Year" award of the Yale Record and many others. Inimitable Characteri The inimitable little char acters of the strip .include good ol Charlie Brown, Lucy, Patty, Violet, Schroeder and others. The Schulz are par ents of five children, but Schulz said he only occasion ally uses an actual incident or apt remark from their children as the basis for a strip. Schulz, who now lives in Sebastopol, Calif., starts work about 6:30 a.m. - daily and works about an- eight-hour day., Sometimes, he said, he can turn out two or three strips in that time, when ideas come fast, and sometimes he discards everything because it does not meet his standards. The comic-strip "Peanuts" will start daily in Mail Trib une tomorrow. - AMCC J8 MAR. 22 ff 2- 8-14-28 raV32-43-36 TAR GAZER" 'jf TAMtUS APR. 21 ( MAY 21 4 -M aa cri 6EMUM iO MAY 22 17-20-36-571 1-74-88-901 CANCft JUNE 23 JULY 23 17 i4 60-73-75 ffl JULY 24 -i-, AUG. 23 lv 4-15-29-34 IS42-5S87-89 AUG. 24 SEPT. 22 I! 21-24-41-fl r 65-67-72 tBj CLAY R- POLLAN- M .
