1C MAIL TRIBUNE. Medford. Or. 10 A Sunday, Jan. 31. I960 Lava Flows in Hawaiian Town Kapoho, Hawaii - (ITD - This tiny village on the island of Hawaii has lost its 17-day bat tle to lend off an invasion of lava from Kilauea Volcano. Streams of molten rock flowed through the streets to day, moving toward the five remaining buildings in a com munity that was once the home of 300 persons. The lava reduced scores of homes to blazing rubble Thursday and destroyed Ka poho School. The old Hawaii courthouse was also consumed and one finger of lava reach ed toward a church in Koae. Joseph Testrella also gave up his vigil. The lighthouse keeper had vowed to remain on duty at Kumikahi light house until the lava "warms my backside." Coast Guard of ficials persuaded him to leave Thursday. Meanwhile, the volcano showed no signs of a let-up. There were three giant foun tains shooting lava hundreds of feet into the air and show ering hot cinders over the area.

YOU can help people with Mental Problems Today, doctors say that 1 out of every 10 Americans has a serious mental problem. You probably come in contact with at least one such person every day a friend, someone you work with, perhaps even a member of your own family. This person desperately needs something that you alone can give your understanding. Here's how you can give it. First, remember the facts. Serious mental problems are quite widespread today. They're not rare. And they're not hopeless! In most cases, they respond well to modern medical treat ment. Second, show the person with such a problem that you understand, sympathize and want to help. As you do this as you give your under standing to those with serious problems learn to understand yourself, too! learn how to keep your own emotional tensions from making life unhappy for you and for those around you. ... and Remember Physical Health is just as important as Mental Health each is dependent upon the other. There fore, MILK is essential to both. Clear minds and strong bodies are the gifts of Nature's most per fect food MILK. Young people and grown ups alike rely on Milk.

(UPI Telephoto) The Family Council Editor's Note: The Familv Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual rase history. The Council reports on problems that have been dealt wl b by responsible agencies and counselors. Clark K.-My first responsi bility is to my family. . Jenny S.-His wife doesn't really want him back. Clark K.-My wife and I, both in our mid-3 0's, were unhappily married for nearly ten years before we decided to separate on a trial basis. When we first separated I met a young widow and be came involved in an affair with her. For a time I felt that I was in love with her and I suppose I got her to expect a little more of me than I was prepared to give. In any case, she is now ex pecting a baby and wants me to marry her. I don't want to be a cad about it, but the fact is that my wife and I became reconciled a couple of months ago. We have three children and my first respon sibility is to them. I feel that Jenny must give this baby up for adoption. Jenny S.-I am nearly 40 and this is my first child. I won't have another and I want to keep this baby. I don't want to give it up for adoption. When I met Clark he told me it was just a matter of Army Colonel Kills Self in Store San Francisco - (UPD - An Army colonel asked to see the cheapest rifle in a department store Thursday, took a bullet from his pocket, and shot him self to death. The victim was Col. Wil liam W. Campbell, 52, at tached to the Chemical Corps at the D u g w a y Proving Grounds in Utah. He was un der observation at Letterman Army hospital for a "nervous disorder." Campbell approached a salesman and asked to see a single shot .22 caliber rifle. The salesman handed him the rifle and turned his back for a moment. The salesman, William Es telita, said he heard a muffled explosion and turned to see the colonel crumple to the floor. He had leaned his head over the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger. Campbell didn't have enough money in his pocket to buy the weapon. The rifle was priced at $16.95, .and Campbell had only $1.40. time before he got a divorce. He said he never really loved her and wouldn't have stayed with her as long as he did if it weren't for the children I don't think Clark's wife wants him back either. She is just doing this to spite me She'll throw him out again after I've gone through the worst. Clark thinks I'll have him back then, but I won't. I need him now as my child's father. He led me to believe I could depend on him. The Council: It is entirly possible that Jenny is right in her idea that Clark's wife is now motivated by spite and will not want to follow through with the rebuilding of her marriage. But Jenny must recognize that she has no choice. She must accept the situation as it now stands. She can't afford to assume that Clark will return to her, even if he and his wife break up again. When she got i n v ol v e d with a married man, Jenny knew she was getting herself into a horrid tangle and the risks were great. She also knew the risk she was run ning in having relationships outside of marriage. Perhaps she was willing to take all these risks to try to win Clark, but gamblers must take their losses. The only real question for Jenny now is whether or not she will keep the child. It is understandable that she would want to keep it, but she must start thinking in terms of how she can bring up a child without a father. Jenny can undoubtedly get a legal allotment from Clark, yet she should be aware of the fact that these allotments usually are low and that the reluctant father can make things very troublesome if he chooses. Then, of course, there is the a 1 m o st insurmountable difficulty of explaining to the child why it has no father. Lies won't do. They are al ways found out and resented. The truth is even more diffi cult for the child to accept. Also to be considered are the long, hard years of child-rearing-the work, the crises, the uncertainties, the worries all to be borne by one wo man, who probably must also work to supplement her in come. Jenny should think about these things and not the re mote possibility that she will someday be able to pressure Clark into marrying her. She must look at the worst event ualities, not at her day dreams, and make her deci sion on the basis of what she believes will really be best for herself and the child.
