Maud C. - I want to meet
Linda secretly.
Mrs. T. C-Maud doesn't
know when she has been
slapped.
Maud C.-I am a 16-year-old
girl and I am extremely upset
about the breakup of a friend
ship with one of the nicest
girls I ever knew.
Linda has been my very
best friend for the past two
years. We've had wonderful
times together. But I don't
think her mother ever liked
me and she finally succeeded
in breaking up our friendship.
.1 think she did this because
she is very ambitious for
Linda. She wants her to go
on the stage and expects
her to devote all her time to
music and dance lessons. I
think this is very wrong.
I got the idea of writing
a note to Linda in school and
telling her to meet me secret
ly, but my mother is against
this. Who is right? .
Mrs. T. C. - I don't want
Linda's mother to get the sat
isfaction of feeling that Maud
needs Linda's friendship so
much. Maud is popular with
both girls and boys-much
more so than Linda-and she
doesn't have to run begging
after anyone's friendship
In my opinion Linda's
mother is one of the first
snobs I have ever met. We
opened our home to Linda,
even took her to the country
with us on week end trips,
but her mother always look
ed down on Maud. Even more
than being concerned about
Linda's music and dance les
sons, she wants her to mingle
with some of the more im
portant families in our com
munity. KOG Commended
By Wiesendanger
The Jackson County Keep
Oregon Green committee has
been commended by Albert
Wiesendanger, executive sec
retary of the Keep Oregon
Green association, for its out
standing support of the pro
gram in 1959.
In a letter to Dale Prentice,
county chairman, Wiesendan
ger noted that fire conditions
during the 1959 season were
among the most severe on
record. High temperatures,
low humidity and higher than
usual winds characterized the
season.
Despite increased use of
forest lands by loggers, hunt
ers, campers and fishermen,
there has not been a corre
sponding increase in the num
ber of man-caused fires, Wies
endanger noted.
In 1958. Oregon had 1,107
man-caused fires, while last
year only 918 were reported,
a decrease of 189 fires.
Wiesendanger paid tribute
to the work of local commit
tee members toward prevent
ing fire and called for con
tinued attention to the prob
lem of man-caused fires in
1960.
Prentice, secretary-manager
of the Southern Oregon
Conservation and Tree Farm
association, gave credit to the
local lumber industry repre
sentatives, and conservation
ists for their efforts to alert
the public to use greater care
in the forests.

wi a by responsible agencies ana
I don t understand my
daughter. She doesn't seem
to know when she has been
slapped in the face.
The Council: We get the
impression that Mrs. T. C.
feels she is the person who
has been slapped. Her bitter
indignation suggests that she
feels she has been put down
by somebody of a higher
status. If she felt a little more
secure of her own status, she
could afford to sit back and
relax while she watches
Linda's mother scramble up
her ladder.
Maud, on the other hand,
seems to have taken this situ
ation as a challenge. The idea
of having a strong secret
friendship is appealing to
most adolescents and we be
lieve that Linda gained con
siderable glamour in her eyes
since she has become forbid
den territory.
If parents wish to help ado
lescent children with their
problems, it is important for
them to be as uninvolved emo
tionally as possible. Mrs. T. C
should try to withdraw her
self and her feelings and take
a cool look at this problem
in order to help her daughter
put it in perspective.
If she takes a cool look,
Mrs. T. C. will soon see that
Linda's mother has a duty to
guide her daughter in the di
rection she considers right.
She, like every other parent,
might be wrong, but she must
make an effort to instill the
goals she values and encour
age the abilities she sees in
her own child. If Maud doesn't
fit well into the pattern she
considers desirable, she will
naturally try to eject her.
All of this is no insult to
Maud. It is possible that a dif
ferent kind of mother who
also has ambitions would
place great value on Maud as
a friend for her daughter.
Mrs. T. C. is too ready to as
sume that Linda's mother has
placed a kind of price tag
on her daughter-and the price
is low.
Maud should be told that
she must accept this situation,
that secret friendships are
not desirable and are rarely
much fun, and that she should
look around for another best
friend. '

said the budget is expected
to be ready in adequate time
to fix the amount of override

The board also discussed
the possibility of making

tingent on merit and respon
sibility as well as on seniority
and education. The board
agreed the subject required

Advice for People Who
Plan To Retire Given
The Medford social securi
ty office has reviewed some
advice for people who plan to
retire in "January and apply
for social security benefits.
"To speed the payment of
the first ' retirement check,
people should bring the neces
sary proofs the first time they
go to file a claim for bene
fits," Edward B. Jacobson,
district manager, said.
A person applying for re
tirement benefits needs to
submit proof of age and of
his or her earnings for 1959,
he explained.
Peak Applications
"The end of the year and
January are usually the peak
time for retirement applica
tions," Jacobson said. "People
can help during the rush per
iod, and at the same time
avoid delays in getting their
first payments by having the
proofs with them."
"The best evidence of age,"
he said, "is a birth certificate,
but people who do not have
birth certificates can prove
their age in a number of
other ways." Baptismal rec
ords, birth date records in
family Bibles, marriage cer
tificates, voting records, and
other old documents may also
be acceptable. Usually the so
cial security office will be
able to suggest some docu

Eligible for Benefits
Persons who believe their
dependents may be eligible
for benefits should present
documents to show their rela
tionship, such as proof of
marriage or adoption, as well
as birth certificates or other
proof of age for the depend
ents. A wife age 62 or more, chil
dren under age 18, and dis
abled children over 18 whose
disability began in childhood
are eligible for dependent's
benefits if the person retir
ing is eligible.
To furnish proof of his
earnings in 1959, a person
who has worked for someone
else can use the W-2 form
given him by his employer.
A self - employed person
should bring a copy of his tax
return for "1959, and also
some evidence that the tax
was paid, such as a cancelled
check. He should also have
an idea of how much he may
earn in 1960, if he believes
that he will be doing any fur
ther work.
