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.

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.
