I am 26, still single, but in great danger I have been going out pretty often with a girl of 23 I like Dolly very much, more than almost any girl I've known, but frankly I haven't thought about marriage. She was just a swell date. Well, the other night, she said suddenly that seeing it's leap year she figures she might as well say what's on her mind and that's m a r- riage to me! You could have knocked me over with a fea ther. I was so upset I broke out in a cold sweat and couldn't think of a thing to say. Dolly said I should think it over and tell her whenever I have the answer. I told my mother about this when I got home and she thought it was awful of Dolly. But now that I've thought it over I think I want to marry her. Mrs. L. K. I am really shocked at a young girl's being so brazen. I know it's leap year and all that, but this is just a sort of joke. Don't get the idea I'm narrow minded, because I'm not. It's just that I think there are " more subtle ways of going about a thing like this. A girl who is well brought up doesn't just pop the question at a man. I'd like to see Hubert get marrie d but when he's ready and to the girl he wants, not anyone who hap pens to have set her cap for him. I feel that Hubert could never be happy with such an aggressive girl. A man wants to feel like the boss in his own home. A girl like this would walk all over him. .The trouble is that he has been so flattered by this proposal he has lost his wits. I also think he's too much of a gentleman to say no. -The Council. We doub very much whether Hubert is considering this marriage purely because he is so flat tered or because he is such a gentleman. The running in stinct is strong in bachelors Real Estate Course Location Changed The real estate study course to begin in Medford Tuesday, March 8, will meet in Room 224, Hedrick Junior High school, It was announced by William Frohnmayer, presi dent of the Medford Board of Realtors.

JOHN I TKAMX ANDATlPOP THE HATU5 HAT TO and they are seldom trapped unless they want to be. We agree , that subtle methods on a woman's part are preferable to outright ag gression, but sometimes subtle methods don't work and more drastic . action is called for. We suspect that Dolly has been using subtle methods on Hubert for some time now. They have had an effect, but probably she feels she has gone as far as she can with this technique. In short, the fact that Hu bert has decided he wants to marry Dolly is a pretty fair indication that he was thor oughly softened up for the fi nal onslaught and is a willing, even eager victim. We are a bit suspicious of the story that he was caught totally by surprise. Come now, Hubert not even an inkling of what was on. Dolly's mind? If Mrs. L. K. has no other objections to -Dolly, we think she ought to give the " mar riage her blessing. Hubert does not have to worry about being the boss or wearing the pants if he has confidence in himself. The fact that Dolly's aggression did not scare him off entirely may be an indica tion that he is the type of man who prefers a strong-minded woman. However" Dolly seems willing to give Hubert plenty of time to think it over and he doesn't have to be hasty with his answer.

These services include child welfare and related youth ac tivities, the junior baseball program, and extensive citi zenship programs such as Boys' Nation, Boys' State, high school . oratorical con tests and school award med als.

This column is prepared as a public service by the College of Law, Willamette University, Salem, to explain basic legal principles, not to provide legal advice. The reader is cautioned not to apply these cases to his own problems without an attorney's advice, for differing facts may change the outcome. The Right To Privacy In their own dwellings peo ple are relatively protected from unwanted communcia tions. The radio and television are under their own control. Newspapers are not delivered unless they are ordered. The principal source of commune cation within the home which is likely to cause annoyance is the visitor at the door and his accomplice, the doorbell. An individual householder who does not want to receive solicitors can post a "no tres passing" sign, and a majority of states have statutes which permit prosecution for tres pass after warning. But can the community adopt restric tive regulation on its own ac count? First1 Experiment It seems that so far as pure ly commercial visitors are concerned, the community can adopt any kind of regulation it likes without raising any free speech or free press prob lems. The town of Green Riv er, Wyo., was apparently the first to experiment, in 1931, with an ordinance banning house -to- house commercial canvassers. The ordinance was upheld by the state supreme court against charges that it interfered with interstate com merce, took property without due process, and denied equal protection of the law. . The U. S. Supreme Court dimis sed the appeal without ruling on the validity of the regula tion. For non-commercial door-to-door canvassing, the situa tion is not so simple. In 1943, the Supreme Court was faced with an ordinance of Struth ers, Ohio, which made it un lawful for a person distribut ing handbills, circulars or other advertisements to ring the doorbell or otherwise sum mon the occupant of a resi dence to the door for the pur pose of receiving such ma terial. The ordinance was ap plied against a member of Je hovah's Witnesses who was distributing a dodger announc ing a meeting and lecture. The particular motivation for the ordinance appears to have been to protect the daytime sleep' of this industrial town, many of the people being em ployed on night shifts in fac tories. Ordinance Held Invalid The Supreme Court, in holding the ordinance invalid, noted that door-to-door visita tion was a customery part of the techniques of many po- - litical, religious, and labor groups, and "is essential to the poorly fianced causes of little people". An ordinance which specifically controlled the distribution of literature, and which substituted com munity judgement for the de sires of individuals, many of whom might be glad to re ceive the literature, was in valid because in conflict with the freedom of speech and press. The question arose again in 1951. At issue was a Green River ordinance, but applied here against salesmen of mag azine subscriptions, which gave rise to a free press prob lem not present in the liti gation concerning the 1931 Wyoming ordinance. In hold ing the ordinance valid, the Supreme Court felt that the case turned on a "balancing of the conveniences . between some householders' desire for privacy and the publisher s right to distribute publica tions in the precise way that those soliciting for him think brings the best results." Com munities which had found house commercial canvassing obnoxious had a right to con trol it by ordinance. Maga zines could be sold some other way. BUBO Lf MWii.fsS ..... . ...yvii .

Prosperous Business Man May .Have Been Original By MICHAEL POSNER Washington-flJPi-The cynics who don't think there's a San ta Claus or an Easter Bunny also scoff at Uncle Sam, But they never heard of Samuel Wilson,' the "Kilroy" of the War of 1812. His daddy was a Minute man at Lexington. As a boy Sam hauled supplies for the patriots of the American Rev olution. Later he walked to western New York beside a wagon train to seek his fortune. And Lenten Season Said Dangerous Time If It Results in Pride By the Very Rev. William F. Maxwell Jr. Rector of St. Christopher's Episcopal Church Oak Park, . m. Written for UPI Lent is a dangerous time of year. Lent is dangerous if our consciences are soothed, if -we feel that by giving up some thing we have won a great spiritual victory. Lent is dangerous if it re sults in pride, if we feel that we are accomplishing much as the result of our own efforts, if we disparage the efforts of others. Real Purpose . To die to self in order that we may be raised with Christ: This is the real purpose of Lent '. It is a gift which no one can earn, but which all may JV fa TAKE A TURN IN SEE YOUR LOCAL AUTHORIZED QUALITY BUICK DEALER NOW! he found it. He became a pros perous owner of a brick works and meat packing house and was known to friends and employees as "Uncle Sam" Wilson. . Congress soon may declare Wilson the . "original Uncle Sam" and make his grave at Troy N.Y. a national shrine. House Approves Bill The House has approved a bill to do this. The Senate public lands subcommittee re cently passed the measure. The Senate Interior Commit- have as a eift from God. To give something for Lent is a simple beginning; thus children are taught to do it. Mature Christians recognize, however, that it is only a be ginning, that spiritual victor ies are not so cheaply won. Real Danger It is this recognition that we have at best done only what we ought to do that we subconsciously feel to be the real danger in Lent. Our pride and self-esteem are threat ened when we recognize that any benefits, we gain from Lent are gifts from God. Jesus told his apostles, ". . . when you have done everything that you are told to do, you can say, 'we are not much good as servants, for we have only done what we ought to do."' A TURBINE of 1800s 'Uncle Sam' tee and the full Senate are its final hurdles. Wilson, who had the tall, slender build and gaunt face of the Uncle Sam pictured in thousands of cartoons, was born in Arlington, Mass., Sept. 13r 1766: He was one of 11 children of Scotch-Irish parents. During the War of 1812, Wilson's packing house sup plied meat to the American Army. Each barrel of meat bore the initials "E.A.-U.S." the EjV. stood for Elbert An derson, a contractor, and the U.S. signified United States. U.S.-Uncle Sam But the story circulated through Army camps that U.S. stood for "Uncle Sam" Wilson. The initials on the barrels and Wilson's name be came as well known in the War of 1812 as the motto "Kilroy was here" during World War II. One story has it that Wil son showed up at a Fourth of July picnic in Woburn, Mass., white striped trousers, a blue vest sprinkled with white stars, a red and white striped coat and a tall hat. - Sketches of him in this get up appeared in newspapers of the time. The costume and the name Uncle Sam grew into national symbols. But Samuel Wilson was nearly forgotten until the legislation was intro duced to recognize him as the "original Uncle Sam."
