U. - All I ask Is that they sit and talk with me a little.. Charles U.,- These are busy id'ays. There's no time for idle chatter. . '' - Mrs. T. U. I'm 73, in good jiealth, and have my own little apartment. My three sons and my daughter are all in homes of their own and, of course, the great joy of my life is seeing them and their fam ilies.' They're good children, visit me regularly and fre quently invite me to their homes. But there's something im portant missing. It's patience. They dash in, ask me how I feel, don't even listen to my answer, and dash out againl 1 If they'd only sit down, stay ., for tea, chat with me a while, tell me interesting things. And when I'm in their homes, it's no better. They slip away for TV. -Even the children don't converse., At my age, pleasant talk is the best treat and I'm a good listener, .. V'' Charles U. - I'll speak for . the four of us in answering Mother's complaint. We're still in the stage of life where actions speak louder than .words. Mother knows our hearts are' in the right place. -When we see she's okay, we hurry along on our way. Take me, for instance. I stop up to see her every other morning on my way to work. -Sometimes I'm double parked, sometimes I'm late, sometimes I've an extra errand to per- form,, en route.' I leave her the paper, kiss her goodbye, and skip. ' ' . There's more time to talk when she comes to my home. We discuss things at the table, the children tell her things. .But why is yak so essential? It's deeds that count. ' The Council: Mrs. U. might pot feel so bad if she got around more and discovered that polite conversation is ex tinct in many families. It's been replaced by eloquent "grunts!" ;, To get members of one's family to really listen requires the sort of attention-getting teaser the advertising boys use, like: "My new alligator doesn't like bath salts!" Even then, Charles might mumble, "Hmmm," while wondering jwhy his car stalled 'twice that day. , What Mrs. U. is asking is 'the one thing her children jivon't give: themselves. They will dole out some of their time, on the run, and gifts and postcards, from cruise stopovers. But she might as vell stop asking them to pull up a chair and meditate, rem inisce, contemplate. Why, in that time they might be . . . well, attending a lecture on The Care of the Aging! I No, she might as well settle fpr the conscientious calls and invitations, sans palaver. At least she's not one of those ne glected by children who seem to have" lost her address. : Unfortunately, as folks grow older,, there are fewer a'nd fewer people in their cir cle who are willing to listen to them. Mrs. U's best bet for that would be a new circle, such as a Senior Citizens fgroup in her church, a neigh borhood Golden Age Club, or even a discussion team she 'might organize herself. Meanwhile. Mrs. U. can ex cuse Charles.

Two Members Introduced Into Kiwanis Club Thomas Reeder, attorney, and James Obenour, represen tative Here for General Tires, were formally inducted as members of Medford Kiwanis club Wednesday at the club's luncheon at Rogue Valley Country club. , . Kecognmon also was given to Coy Watson, Cameo Cam era television film producer, and Ben Roeser, Ford Gum Machine representative; They are transfer members. Fast president Bill Singler conducted the induction, and st president ' Dr. Abner Clark presented pins to Reed er and Obenour. 1 . Speaker at the luncheon was Clifford Cordy, Jackson county horticultural agent, who discussed the pear de cline problem in this area and in California and Washing ton. Outlook for Good Crop Cordy reported a heavy pear bloom in the valley, and the outlook for a good crop. He indicated that decline may take some toll but that re planting will help fill the gap. The horticulturist report ed some frost loss in the val ley. Loss was heavy in spots, he indicated, but for the val ley as a whole, the commer cial loss was not great. Pear decline involves loss of vigor or death of a tree, Cordy mentioned. It started in this area in 1956 and 1957 and has become increasingly worse. " General . types of decline, Cordy reported, are graft un ion, involved with the root stock and with a virus as the suspected cause, and a type involving fertilizer poisoning and watering, with which a fungus disease may be tied in. The horticulturist said that there is nothing that can be done to cure pear decline, but that measures can be taken to circumvent it, like use of more resistent root stock and change in fertilizers and wa tering systems. ' He pointed to the vulner bility of oriental root stock, and said that this area. has more trouble with other types of decline since the valley has only some 500 acres of trees with oriental stock. U of 0 President To Review Forms Eugene OIPD Dr. William C. Jones, acting president of the University of Oregon, has agreed to review rating forms used on the campus. Students have protested, them by pickets and petitions.- A student counselor, Gayle Osburn, was fired from her job when she objected to the use of the forms which asked her to rate freshman girl stu dents on such questions as ag gressiveness toward the op posite sex. i Jones said he would appoint a committee of faculty and students, mostly women, to confer with Dean Donald Du Shane and suggest improvements.
