MUSIC IN THE AIR Like so many song- just loo bad for anyone in the vicinity who birds perched in a tree, (except who ever was trying' to take a nap. The music was heard of a warbler with a "Dixieland" fine, but man, it was like . . . uh . . . loud, beat?) the group of musicians above, all yu know? The boys are, left to right (in tree) students at McLoughlin Junior High school, Skip VanSickle, on the trombone; Bill War attracted a throng of neighborhood chil- ren, sax; Paul Jnnny, trumpet; and on the drcn during a rather unusual "jam session" ground (getting the drums in the tree was recently. The group, who called themselves out of the question) is Jim Mitchell, the Charmers, played up a storm and it was Choir To Give Ashlsnd Concert Ashland - The choir from the Multnomah School of the Bible, Portland, willp;-csent a sacred concert at the First Baptist church, Ashland, Tues day, Feb. 28, at 7:30 p.m. The choir includes 3(i young people who arc attending the school which trains them as pastors, missionaries, Chris tian education workers, and to serve in other fields of Chris tian work.

Foresters Attend OSC Short Course Corvallis - Three foresters from southern Oregon com pleted a special short course in forest variable plot cruis ing Friday at Oregon State college. Participating were Albert J. Boris, Timber Products company, and Howard W. Mitchel, Medford corporation, both Medford; and Duane Smeltzer, Butte Falls. Some 65 foresters from throughout the northwest and Canada were enrolled in the three-day school, offered each of the past six years by OSC. The course was sponsored by the college's school of for estry, which presents five d f ferent short courses each year for northwest foresters. Variable plot cruising is a new, more efficient method for determining the volume Of standing timber. Developed in Europe, it has been field tested in both Douglas fir and pine timber types with "ex cellent" results and with wide adoption, according to the college. Lenten Message By THE MOST REV. JOHN WRIGHT Roman Catholic Bishop of Pittsburgh (Written for UPI) Most people would accept everything about Christ and His teachings e x c e p t the cross. The cross remains pre cisely what St. Paul pro claimed it to be, a stumbling block over which they fall who would find Christ ap pealing, consoling, inspiring, anything else one wishes except for the cross. Indeed, most would prob ably find even the cross magnificent if Christ had lim ited its necessity to Himself. But he did not. He made it the condition of the sincere following of His teaching that each would take up his own cross in imitation of the cru cified Son of Man. St. Paul gloried that he might share any part of the redemptive sufferings of Christ. He understood that only they can share the glory of God who have shared the cross of His Son. This is unintelligible to the undisciplined and the selfish, even those who call them selves Christians and who profess to seek the truth that religion offers. Whatever in Christ is comfortable and consistent with their purposes is gladly accepted; out of this they cheerfully fashion a "faith by which to live." But the hard sayings" of the ijospei; the stern require ments of the Commandments; the contradiction and renun ciation which come with the cross these are repugnant to mere nature and are speedily rejected. Then comes Lent and with Lent the reminder that the way of perfection, on what ever level is never cut to our preferences and smoothed for our ease. It is always the way of the cross, of austerity and voluntary penances which give us some title to the joy of which Easter is the prom ise, livery now and again na tions must learn this lesson as well as individuals. Ours is such a time in history. Lent was never more opportune in its lessons of the necessity and the uses of the cross. Try and Stop Me By BENNETT CERF SENATOR BARRY GOLDWATER tells of a political scan dal that's about to break in a certain very large state. "Somebody," he claims, "has stolen next year's election re turns." The Senator also points out that President Kennedy's new cabinet has a distinction no pre vious cabinet could boast. It's the only one that can play Yale. A few generally over looked observations by fa mous men resurrected by Bill Blair: "I don't mind lying, but I hate Inaccuracy" Samuel Butler. "What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure" Samuel Johnson. . "A fanatic is a man who can't change his mind and won't change the subject" Winston Churchill. "The secret of being boring is to say everytliiiig" Voltaire. A Yale playboy boasts that his girl has everything but he's hoping to get some of it back. 1961, by Bennett Cerf.

Candy Suggested To Replace Coffee Break Santa Barbara, Calif. - IUPD - There's a plot afoot to re place the coffee break by a candy break. Businessman Russell D. Albers said today coffee breaks are costing American business too much money. "Nothing against coffee, mind you," said Albers. "But lt just doesn't have the energy wallop of a piece of candy and it is tremendously time consuming. "Look," he said. "A top executive earns about 40 to 50 cents a minute. So a 10-minute coffee break twice a day is costing his company between $8 and $10 a day or around $2,000 a year. "Multiply that by a few thousand executives and you are up in the millions of dollars." What Alberts foresees is a conversion to top executives tn candy breaks and "then we're going to get going on a junior executive candy break, he said. "From there It's just a short hop to lining up secretaries, clerks, timekeepers, office boys and finally the entire produc tion staff," he said. Asked if he was serious, Albers smilingly said he cer tainly was. And then he revealed who he is, the president of a Los Angeles candy firm. Mrs. T. F.-We need more money, but 1 hesitate to take a job and neglect Howard. Howard F.-She needn t wor ry. 1 can take care of myseu better than she thinks. Mrs. T. F.-I was widowed a few months ago, and we are in desperate financial straits. My husband left no insurance, no savings, and many debts. Although we owned our home outright, I'll have to sell it to meet obligations. To provide living expenses for myself and Howard, our 14-year-old son, I must either seek employment or go on relief. Embarrassing as it would be, I'm inclined to do the latter. Then I can devote myself to providing poor How ard with the best possible home. He's a gifted, promising boy, and the loss of our home on top of the loss of his father could be a shattering experi ence for him. I feel he should t least have his mother around to comfort and reas sure him as much as possible. . Howard F.-I think my moth er s plan is terrible. 1 can understand her selling our home, what with all the bills and taxes and fuel costs. But we don't really have to go on relief. Mom says she wants to take care of me, know where I am and how I feel. Well, she knows exactly where I am from 9 to 4 every day. Right on Riggs ave., in school. And feel fine there. She can easily get a part-time job. She's a crackerjack bookkcep- and used to work in a tax office. And what's wrong with my getting working papers? Then I can make some money on Saturdays and after school. I know Mom's thinking of my studies and hobbies and all. But I'm a good student. And things will get better. Meanwhile, I wish she'd try it my way. bumps in the road ahead. If his mother rushes to smooth (hem, how will he ever flex his own problem-solving mus cles? A reasonable amount of stress, say the experts, is not only desirable but necessary for optimum health. For full development, a heart needs a hill to climb. The best pearls, say the breeders, come from the most "irritated" oysters. Mrs. F. need not fear any long-range detriment to How ard if she lakes a job. Temporarily, of course, Howard may have to forego a part in the class play or a private research project lor the science class. But witn the reinforced self-confidence that will come with licking the present threat, he'll catch up fast. In a recent study of gitted children, Dr. Victor H. Goert zel came up with findings to Drove that "all" is not lost when adversity nits a nome On the contrary, it may The Council: "Into each life." said Longfellow, "some rain must fall." Yet, in her solicitude for her fatherless son, Mrs. F. wants to be the tarpaulin that "shields" him from something essential. The problems ahead may provide just the right challenge for the full flowering of How ard's talents. We concur with Howard. While we hold no brief for avoidable suffering, we find value in a few surmountable the spur that propels a child into real accomplishment. Mrs. F. must not lose sight of the many compensations in Howard's life, not the least of which is the example of a proud, go-getting mother. To sum up, Mrs. F.'s trou bles may turn out-if handled in brave teamwork-to have helped Howard more than the lack of any trouble could do. Besides, no mother can assure a lack of trouble, no matter her resources. Together, this mother and son can pack a real punch.
