Morion R.-I support my 74-year-old mother in her own Bronx apartment. She held on to a job in a bake shop by lying about her a-ge until I took over a year ago and she promised to stay home and take it easy. The other day I called her at 8:30 a.m. and got no answer. I went to her place and found it empty. No one had seen her leave. I waited around and was about to call the police when she returned around 3:30. She won't explain, Mn. B. R.-My son can't get it through his head that I can't bear doing nothing while I have two good hands and feet. I'm not ready to vegetate. I intend to continue going where I went that day. I've been slipping off that way because I knew he'd never consent. At 7 a.m.,, I walk to a nursing home where they let me help dress and feed the patients. After break fast I write letters for those whose hands shake and read to those with poor eyesight. Yes, I'm a volunteer aide. Th Council: "Not by bread alone," says the Bible (and that covers a roof and some cash, too) docs one live. Even though you've provided the creature comforts for your mother, Morton, she can't really "take it easy" for she's uneasy on two counts. She feels useless and she feels iso lated. In one courageous coup, she remedies those aches. What she docs for the incapa ciated unfortunates in the nursing home is more than balanced, in her mind, by what they do for her. ... In a report on healthful aging Dr. Edward Borlz recom mends living to a ripe old age, as against existing until "death. Essential for this, he reminds us, is a "sense of con tribution." Fortunately, op portunities to serve abound. Now that Mrs. R. has found one, Morton would do well to line up others for her. How about threading needles and cutting fabrics at a Cerebral Palsy workshop?

PUC Levies Fine On Hermiston Man Salem -0IPI)- Harold Wil kins, Hermiston, has been or dered to pay $4,200 in penal tics for operating his truck commercially while licensing it as a farm vehicle. The penalty was levied by Public Utility Commissioner Jonel C. Hill as a part of his crackdown on truckers who pose as farmers to avoid pay ing state fees charged to com mercial operators. PUC investigators said Wil kins had been using his truck and trailer combination to haul baled hay from a farm near Echo to the Pendleton Grain Growers' Feedville ter minal. Last week Hill fined two other Umatilla county truck ers $3,000 for using farm plates to avoid the license fees.

Help me to keep from g e 1 1 i n g too talkative from getting boresome and from get- Alvarei v i g jjusiuvc and vehement about many subjects about which I know little. May I keep remember ing that simply because I know one subject well, this does not mean that I am equally an expert on other subjects. Help me to watch the faces of those about me so that I will know when I have said enough. Help me to keep from developing the monologue habit. Teach me to listen as well as to speak. Help me to get quickly to the point of my story and then to quit. Help me to avoid giving a biog raphy of all the persons whom I mention. Help me to avoid giving minute details about everything. Help me to realize that if I am to have young friends, or even old friends, I must not drive them away by long re citals of my discomforts and hardships and the injustices that have been done to me. May I never speak of the in gratitude of my children; may I never describe my backache except to my physician. Help me to see that, if I am to keep my old friends and find new ones, I must be friendly, and I must make it worthwhile for people to come and see me and chat with me. As we visit, I must give them some pleasure and some mental stimulus, or they will not come back. Help me to have a real interest in my guests, sympathy for them, and concern over their prob lems. Teach me to listen pa tiently to their tales of woe. Help me to keep up some cor respondence with my rela tives and my friends. Help me to keep from get ting the idea that I can and must, direct the lives of those about me. Help me to mind my own aflairs and not to tell other people what to do. Help me to keep from be ing bossy. Help me to see that I will be lucky if I take care of my own life wisely. Above all things, oh Lord, help me to remain kindly; keep me from becoming bit ter; keep me from going into tirades about the President or some of his actions that I dis like. Help me to avoid explod ing in wrath over little annoy ances. Help me to keep from be coming miserly and parsimon ious in matters of money. Help me, dear Lord, to keep what redeeming sense of hu once have had. Help me to make allowances for the weaknesses and irritabilities of some persons I may meet; goodness knows, they will have to make allowances for the defects and irritabilities they will find in me. Amen. Nervous Rectal Pain In any big clinic some men and women are seen with pain in the region of the end of the bowel pain for which no cause can be found by looking in with an electrically-lighted tube, or by X-raying the colon. It is conceivable that some of these pains are due to cramps in muscles in the pel vis. In the cases of men there could be a cramp in the pros tate gland. I have seen many persons with such pain and I never could find any cause for it. Expert rectal men (proctologists) also failed to find anything wrong. One feature that makes me pretty sure that the pain is of nervous origin is the fact that usually it remains steady perhaps day and night, and us ually it is found in persons who are somewhat tense or nervous or anxious about their health. I never saw a patient with such pain who came to any bad end, so far as I could find out. He or she never developed a cancer. The discomfort was usually described as a gnawing ache, or a feeling of a cramp, or rarely of a stabbing. Relief can sometimes be brought about by walking around, or perhaps by getting into a tub of warm water. The taking of quinine or some sed ative can be tried. Usually the pain has nothing to do with a movement of the bowels, or the presence of gas in the bowel, or the passage of gas. Usually these people are not constipated . I have seen many of these persons who have had their little "tailbone" (coccyx) re moved, and I never saw one who was helped by the operation. Persons who have pain caused by nervousness will want to read Dr. Alvarez' lit tle booklet, "Triumph Over Nervousness." You can get a copy by sending 25 cents and a sell-addressed, stamped en velope with your request for it to Dr. Walter C. Alvarez, Dept. MMT, Box 957, Des Moines 4, Iowa. Social Activities Of Middle Teens Confuse Parents By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist The social activities of chil dren in the middle teens some times are confusing to par ents. A general understand ing of their usual social be havior and needs will help adults to realize what should and should not be expected. For instance, Ann, an at tractive 16-year-old high school student, has been a suc cessful scholar and is quite ac tive in extracurricular activ ities. Her mother has been concerned about her social development. Is the girl growing up too fast? Should she be going out on dates, attending dances, and be so interested In boys? The girl is concerned con stantly with her appearance. She also has shown an ex tremely strong interest in various causes and supporting the underdog. Typical of Desires These are typical character istics of the desires of a girl in her middle teens. She takes an increasingly broader view of national and interna tional affairs. She is searching for prestige among her peers and within the school. Her in terests become more adult. She will gain satisfaction as a spectator at lectures and con certs. She becomes more dig nified and displays increased self-control. Her needs follow similar di rection. She should be treated as an adult member of the family. She should be allowed to go to dances and on dates. Naturally, reasonable restric tions are in order. A dance should be properly chap eroned. Dates should be in groups with properly planned entertainment. What about a boy of this age? His social interests and needs are very much the same. Physically, he has caught up with the girls. He still will be interested in sports as an active player. He will want to develop a strong body. He likes girls to be friendly, well-groomed, and to have a sense of humor. Parents who recognize and understand the characteristics and needs of their children in the middle teens will find their job much easier. This age group really is blossom ing. They are anxious to be a part of the total society. Independence Desired They are cooperative and yet desire independence. They want to obtain respect and prestige. They will have a great deal of enthusiasm in all their activities. Give them good direction and guidance and the results will be reward ing. Proper standards and re strictions are particularly im portant to this age group. They need a feeling of inde pendence. The desire to im prove their lot creates much ambition. This may be a bit premature. Treat them as an adult in deciding with them what these standards and re strictions will be. They will be more cooper ative in adhering to them, as well as gain a feeling of im portance in being part of the decision. Do not hesitate to impose some of your own ideas but be willing to give an explanation. These child ren will object to authority only when it seems as if they arc losing face. This age group is basically looking for recognition. 1 - SATURDAY-SUNDAY-MONDAY POOL SALE SAVE 30-40-50 GOOD SELECTION NOW IVERSON'S MEDFORD PAINT A WALLPAPER STORE 1st in Quality 1st in Service SIH Grtan Stamps 6th It Holly Ph. 772-9)21 Fence Type Factory List SALE 11.00 C OQ NOW OsOa 8' 15" Date A Art 17.00 NOW JlsOtl 20.00 12.77 POOL COVERS VI 2.49 16.50 Q An IS Ft 0.99 ! 14.99 20 ft. ... 1 8.99 S-. :.. 27.00 BEACH BALLS 50 OFF Solid Steel Wall $28.00-8'x20" 14 39.00-1 0'x24" 24" 63.00-H'x30" 3977 POOL SLIDES For 2' pools 17.99 For 42" " 32.99 For 4' pools 37.99 fi MmS4i'"i zzftiiiitti u .;'' ifi'iUI.'ff.Ts'SWijtri, A ' ' f.r"ij j:, ii Big Family Pools 4 Feet Deep Factory List SALE 1 8 Ft. 372.00 277.00 20 Ft. 457.00 ..:.. 319.00 24 Ft. 552.00 399.00 Complete With Filter, Udder, Vacuum Cleaner, Automatic Skimmer T0YW01UD Southwest Heat Wave Continues By United Press International A heat wave continued to burn the southwest today.
