He gave no details, but he said this is one of a num. ber of high stage develop nlenis now In the planning stage. Norblnd, third ranking Re publican on the House Mili tary Affairs committee, also s.iid that the biggest threat 1 to Ihe U.S. now is the pos sibility of Russia sending into orbit a huge nuclear weapon - one that could be dropped any time. He said such a weapon, spin ning at 18,0(1(1 miles an hour, could be triggered by radio, sinking a target a minute later. Norblad said the U.S. gov ernment is working on a "death ray" to destroy mis siles, but it Isn't perfected. Average capacity of a rail way tank car , is 10,000 . gallons. Th Tombstone Mystery With Fox Playing Ltad lie escaped the wrath ot the farmer by carefully avoiding chicken yards; he was wise enough to know that von grance would be swift and sure if he substituted domes tic fowl for wild game. He was living tip to the reputa tinn credited to his kind, by being "foxy." Mirny people knew this gray fox: tbry had seen him often trotting along bcilde the country road. Some could even remember seeing him In wide ly separated places. They could recognize him easily; his right ear had once been badly torn, and now it flop ped; actually appeared not to be on the head at all In the half light of moonlit night. Hunting parties, with hounds, had stirred the gray lox many times; had chased him repeatedly. The fox's den was cleverly hidden in the trunk of a hollow log, and sheltered by an overgrowth of vines and bushes. Here sev eral families had been raised; here, Ino. the female gray fox waited while he. apparently wiser, ranged out allot rab bits, mitf, and other small game that he faithfully brought to her and the kids. Sounds al Night In the late fall of every year, folks in. the neighbor hood would listen to the hay ing nf hounds in the night, and knew that again a minting party was on the trail of the inx. Inquiry the next day would reveal Ihe fact that the fox had been "run" for some time but as usual, was lost, in the same general area. The hound park could al ways follow the trail while it skirted homos and through pooplo's backyards but lost ihe trail when the fox entered the vicinity of a country ceme tery. There the wily fox seem ed to drop out of sight; Just as if the earth had swallowed hnn. There were limes when Hie animal, evidently Just playing OCTOBER 21, 1962 The Family Council Rrtltnr'i note!

Now that I'm a widow and the other daughters live in other cities, naturally I'm drawn to Hilda and expect to be treat ed like a ricvotpd mother, which I've certainly been to her. But something's wrong. I see other mothers enjoying the company of their daugh ters in restaurants, out shop ping and at the movies. Hilda, however, calls up her friends to accompany her, or even neighbors who are my age. Imagine her asking other grandmothers to baby-sit for Small Worlds Around Us By LYNN M. WATKINS (Rigliter and Tribune Syndicate 19621 with the dogpack, would range for several miles, but when tired would return to the vi cinity of the graveyard and disappear. An interested lislener, who had heard the baying hounds many times, and had talked to the hunters, decided to find out, If possible, Just how the fox succcced In eluding his pursuers. This man was not Interested in catching the fox, or even helping the hunters, but was prompted merely by a curiosity about living things and their actions. Toward this end, he drop ped whatever he was doing one night, when he hoard the baying hounds, and hurried to the cemetery. He was to be come an uninvited guest of the hunting party; an unseen observer of the fox's actions. Arrivtd Early Ho arrived at the cemetery some time before the hound pack gave evidence of their direction. He was lucky, for shortly he saw the fox, its bushy tail streaming out, like plume. The man was In an advantageous position he was perched atop a fence post. From this vantage point he (ould see over the entire cem etery. There was starlight and moonlight enough to make niinly distinct every tree, bush and tombstone, lit fact, now Ihat his eyes were adjusted to the half-light, he could read the lettering on the nearby stones.

I don't deserve such coldness. Hilda N.-It's rather late In the game for my mother to expect me to feel close to her. All through my child hood she made me feel like the fifth wheel on a wagon. Who needed me around? She had three daughters and then along came me, Hilda, to make It four. If I'd been a boy, well, that would have been another story. I was always happier among friends than with my family. In school the kids liked me. Av report-card time if 1 did well there was no comment at home, but when my marks- slipped my mother bawled me out for days. She seemed extra severe with me. My sisters got her smiles and her special services. But when II came to shortening a dress for me or helping me prepare for a party she begged off. Even though she's my mother we have little in common. e - Th Ceuncili Here's Hilda saying thai because she never felt close to her mother she's not going to start now. It's like refusing to look out of a window on the other side of the train. Why shut out the possibility of a pleasant vista'; There are many factors which Can interfere with a mother and daughter "hilling II off right." As the youngest, Hilda may have drawn the most tired mother. And there was a father on the scene who unconsciously may have treated Hilda as "my baby girl," championing her as against; her mother. The In evitable "comparing" of treat ment among four Utile girls can also contribute to a "case" against the mother by one who feels bested, ignored and frustrated. Rightly or wrongly, Mrs. E. is the scape goat In Hilda's life. To Hilda we submit the thought that having a scape goat is an evasion, an ex cuse, and thai she would do well to look further than her mother for the causes of her malaise and pique. And to Mrs. N. we bring a reminder Ihat one cannot force love. II doesn't spring fullbloom at the push of a button. It begins with liny strands of gentleness which gradually interweave Into a soft caressing fabric. At pres ent Hilda cannot but feel that her mother lurns to her be cau.se the other daughters have fled. I'm like the "any port in a storm" which ship wrecked travelers turn to. she thinks. So Mrs. N, cannot hope to replace those from whom Hilda Is now deriving comfort and reassurance. Bui she has an Inside track to ward respect and friendship from her daughter. Naturally neither woman has given us the whole story behind her feelings. Even so. the future is what counts now. And Hilda would do well to bear in mind that little eyes - her children's - and little ears are around, record- "OIL TO BURN" Mobilheal S t H Green Stamps MEDFORD FUEL CO. 72-11 1 1 4V Or V5 I XVI 4 ' ,J 4 '4 f 'ijlii'ir'.'mifc'W lng impressions of how to treat a mother, Now's the time to summon whatever good feelings - gratitude and sympathy - may be lying dormant.
