(UP1) 'Pleasing Turnout' For Moonlight Sale A pleasing turnout of shop pers attended the downtown Medford merchants' annual moonlight sale, according to Mrs. Phil Braincrd, president of the Medford Retail Mer chants' association. "We saw a lot of Interest Friday night with a number of people coming back Satur day to buy what they saw dur ing the sale," Mrs. Brainerd said. "We find we are getting people from Grants Pass, Cave Junction and northern Cali fornia." Bulk of the people attended the sale between 8:30 and 0:30 Friday night, Mrs. Brainerd said. Another spurt came after 10:13 to 11 p.m. after the foot ball game. The merchants now are planning for the Christmas op ening on Dec. 7. Live reindeer will be brought In to pull San ta Claus through the Medford streets on his sleigh. Later the live reindeer will be displayed in a stockade area. Location is yet to be arranged, Mrs. Brainerd said. The Family Council Kdltor's note! The Family Council eon sis is of m Judge, a ph3 chlatrtst, three eleriymen, three editors and a women'! editor.

Alma Denny (Copyright br nettirsj features Corp.) Mrs. T. D. I'd like Ken . knows what's going on at to transfer to a college near home and the knowledge home. Clara G. He's belter off 3,000 miles from home. e a e Mrs. T. D. I have four children. The three oldest are daughters, all school teachers and all married. The youngest is my 19-year-old son Because there is quite a bit of friction between my hus band and myself, my daugh ters suggested that Ken at' tend a college far from home. This is his second year now at a California university, and it's not working out. He failed two courses which he's repeating. He joined a frater nity and has been reprimanded by the dean for late hours and carousing At this rate, the four years of college may drag out to five or six. Ken needs me nearby. 1 can keep him at his books. Far from home, with no supervision and no body interested, he'll just waste time and money, e . e e Clara G. Home is no place for my brother. It was no place for me and my sis ters, either, for that matter. We got out fast through early marriages. And we're trying to help Ken extricate him self, too. My father is 16 years older than my mother. They were married in Russia, through the offices of a marriage broker, when she was only 17. They had little in common and, as I remember things, he used to bark at her and she'd cry every day. i That's no environment for a young man. And now that Papa isn't working, things are worse than ever. He's home, living on a pension and So cial Security, and he picks an argument with whoever lets him. To cheer herself up, my mother has her daughters and grandchildren. Leave Ken where he is. a . The Councllr In the face of unpleasantness, it's human to turn the other way. "Say it isn't so," is an everyday plea. Run 3.000 miles is the "solu tion" proffered to Ken by his sisters. But all the while he gnaws at his vitals, distract ing him from energetic appli cation to college courses and a career. We agree with Clara that living at home, or even being there for long periods, would not be helpful or healthful for Ken's optimum blossoming. He'd become the buffer be tween his parents, forced to hear their recriminations, tempted to take sides, assail ed by feelings of futility in trying to ease their -relationship. His parents' problem is an old one. If it's growing more serious, aid must come from outside guidance, not from 19-year-old Ken. But it's no more useful for Ken to flee from home as from a bad dream, hoping that things will transform and that some day when he returns, all will be different. It won't be. A better idea would be tor Ken to keep in touch with home, though not live there, while working actively to scl his own life to rights. In other words, putting 3,000 miles between himself and his parents is simply delaying the transformation required. We suggest that Ken switch schools so as to be near enough to home to know whether he's making any progress in his own maturing, his own ability to cope with his family and his adult re sponsibilities. At present, Ken isn't even standing still. He's retrogress ing. His college record is de plorable and alarming. The transfer should be to a uni versity near enough to home for Mrs. D. to visit him, or for him to come home on special occasions. A boy is more likely to buckle down to serious industry with cor porate reminders that "some body cares." This compromise not living at home amid parental strife, but living near enough to look in, at limes, and be looked at, in turn holds promise. Ken's father may eventually fall in line and keep to good behavior so as to turn Ken's visits into a treat for the young man. .V -; ' Wr - J .
