Each article U a luminary of an actual case hiitory. The Council reports on problem! that have been dealt with by reipott llhle agencies and counselors. Clara W. - He makes ev eryone go to sleep when he gets sleepy himself. Arnold W. - It's for their own good. They need the rest. Clara W. - For the past five years it's been pure blazes in our home because Arnie is such a bug about bedtime. It was all right when the children were small, but now they're 20 and 17-year-old girls, and our son is 13. Right into their teens, the daugh ters were expected to retire when their dad said so, usu ally at 10 o'clock. He's in bed himself at 9:30 every night, holidays and week ends included. Our eldest got away from it all by marrying at 18. Luckily she loves her husband and it's a good mar riage. But the bickering with the other children goes on and I don't blame them. All would be peaceful if we obeyed him. But I enjoy staying up late, when all is quiet. Most of the time I give in to him to end the racket he makes. Arnold W. - My father nev- erer Had a sick day in nis life, when he did It was from an accident. And he attrib uted his good health to his early-to-h.;d life, and brought us up the same way. I know the human body needs at least eight hours of sleep a night. My wife and children, however, are so scat terbrained they'd sit around most of the night if I didn't hustle them all off to bed at sensible hour. This way, even though they kick, they keep well and get to their classes and work on time. Oh, I stretch the rules at times, even though I can hardly keep my eyes open. When we have company 10:45 is okay. And on week ends, the daughter has until u:ju, and 12 the latest, to be out. The Council - Those who last night lost track of the time and didn't succumb to drowsiness until the first early rays of a new day told them It had been an awfully short night; those may envy Clara a "monitor" who sees that she and evcrone else in the family get to bed early. But others who have solved their own sleep problems will pity her for not being per mitted to burn her candle more freclv. even at bolh ends once in a while, if she'd like. This is more than a sleep issue, however. We might be able to wrap up a neat an swer for Arnold by remind ing him that sleep needs dif fer for individuals, and that the number of hours assigned for sleep have no relation to the health - giving quality of that sleep. All depends upon how the waking hours are spent. Some really need eight hours. Others sail along line on less. Col. John Slapp, a physician specializing in aero space medicine, says that he gets four to six hours a night of sleep, the soundness of which is determined by how satisfying the rest of the 24 were. No, it looks as though Arn old is using sleep as the ve hicle for throwing his weight around, in the guise of doing his family good. The only good it seems to do is to alert them all to his unfairness, and prepare them for further battle. II wasn't just the iron clad curfew which made Daughter No. 1 leave the fry ing pan for what couici nae been the fire. It was a dad who acls like Little Caesar. But there's hope. Clara and , the olhers are unbowed, and seek an unbiassed ruling. While too rigid a regulation is oppressive, we side with Arnold on the importance of some scheduling. Ideally this is arrived at through friend ly, relaxed discussion between parents and children, not by fiat. We propose that a more elastic spread be set up, with differentials allowed between the bedtimes of age 13. age 17 and age 21 plus, according to responsibilities and person al rhythms. As to Arnold's own sleep needs, they may be Inordi nate. A physician may find a phvsioloRical reason for his I automatic nodding, a disease symptom. A psychiatrist might interpret excessive sleepiness as an urge to shut out wo y. to escape from an oppressive reality. Armd's family docs not share his desire lor need") 'for loppedoff days.

The well-known RCA Victor recording artists are Lou Gottlieb, Alex Hassilev and Glenn Yarbrough. They will appear at 8 Limeliters Will Present Show at Hedrick Jr. High The Limeliters, well-known RCA Victor singing-comedy trio, will present a show at 8 p.m. Monday, May 14, in the Hedrick Junior High school auditorium.

Before the chance meeting in Los Angeles which resulted in their merger, Lou Gottlieb, Alex Hassilev and Glenn Yar brough each worked as single supper club acts. Yarbrough had been sing ing at a club in Aspen, Colo., called the Limclite which in spired the group's name. Ha eventually bought the lease and made Alex Hassilev his partner. Then, about this lime, Lou Gottlieb met the duo. Lou was an original member of the Gateway Singers. He had written several arrangements for the Kingston Trio.

De Loach, assistant director of the Federal Bureau of Inves tigation, said Thursday the volume of crime has nearly doubled in the last 10 years. He told delegates attending the National Law Enforce ment Intelligence Units Con ference that a serious offense is comniitled every 17 seconds in the United Slates. The need lor niuaial help among crime-fighting agencies is greater now than ever be fore, he said. CEDAR 2x48' LOW GRADE at (Q) CHENEY Central The Old King Crab Keep. Plodding, But Gets Nowhara He's lumbering along in the mud of many beaches from Maine to Mexico, ignorant of the fact his ancestors were structurally the same as he is, in spite of the fact they lived ten millions of years ago. A peculiar distinction, hav ing a fossil as one's nearest relative, but such is the status of the king crab, commonly called a horseshoe crab be cause it is shaped like a horse shoe. His nearest of kin, as far as can be determined, are the spider and the scorpion; all three have similar character istics. But the relationship is a little thin, as he really is the lone survivor of an other wise extinct group of animals. Nature sure tilted the draw ing board when she designed this slow-moving tank-like creature, for the king crab left the beaten path a long way back and never man aged to get back on. About the only common thing about them is they are common on any ocean beach where the water is relatively warm, but in every other way they are about the most unusual critter alive today. The scientist calls the king crab "Limulus" and looks with amazement at the way the poor old dope has to breathe - by means of "book gills," the most primitive ar rangement possible. Nature discarded these gills in all oth er creatures many millions of years ago. Book gills look like the folded pages of a water- soaked book. The eyes of Ibis "missing link" are on the upper, for ward part of the shell, right next to two sharp little horns that don't have any reason for being there. Of course, its eyesight is bad. It's doubtful if he can see his forefeet be fore his face. Eyes wouldn't be much use anyway while wallowing in mud. The long, stiff, spined tail drags along behind, a useless organ that must bother him no end but comes in handy once in a while, if the king crab is on his back, and some body steps down hard on the sharp tail.

Small Worlds Around Us By LYNN M. W ATKINS (Register and Tribune Syndicate 1 962) known to "be mad at any body" so there seems little reason why he has a tail. The feet and legs are pro tected by the overhang of the shell that covers the almost fleshless body, but they can carry him along if he is in a hurry. He has never used his legs to better himself; he has not progressed an inch along the geologic path; not taken a single timid step. Poor old plodder, what is his destina tion? Of all living creatures he's about the most unorganized.

Last November the U.S. Ag riculture department canceled its regulation allowing hams to contain an added 10 per cent moisture without label ing. The Oregon supervisor of meat inspection, Dr. M. L. Houston, testified at a heating in Portland a year ago that the regulation meant hams could contain as high as 15 to 19 per cent added water con tent. This is the same as add ing 10 per cent or more water to milk, he said. Ruling Reversed Federal officials in cancel ing the 10 per cent allowance reverted to a regulation say ing that all watered hams had to be labeled as imitation. This was tested in federal dis Grants Pass Firm Bids High on Logs i Brecount Brothers of Grant Pass was high bidder last week for 495,000 board feet of National Forest timber in the Project Camp area, Ash land Ranger district, Rogue River National forest. C. E. Brown, forest super- j visor, reported the high bid j totaled $17,733. This compares with the forest service ap praised price for the timber ; of $13,943.25, an increase of 27 per cent. , Next high bidder in the oral aurtinn fnr the timber was I fliff r.rwn nf Central Point.
