Family Income in Jackson County Rises I Per Cent To what extent has Jackson County's economy moved ahead since the last war? How much better off are local residents than they were 15 years ago? The rate at which they have advanced, as well as their pros pects for the future, are mat ters of basic importance to the county's residents. Just as expansion and growth are counted on, year after year, to keep the national economy on an even keel and to provide jobs for the growing labor force, so it is at the local level. And, to each community, what is happening in its own back yard ia of much greater concern than what is happening elsewhere in the country. Studlei Completed Studies completed by the U. S. Department of Commerce, by Sales Management and by other agencies reveal, for each area of the United States, what prog ress it has made in the last 15 years. In Jackson County, the fig ures show, a significant rise in earning capacity has taken place since 1047. The average income per family at that time, after taxes, amounted to $2,617 a year. A of last yeaf , the tee-ail aver age had climbed to $5,728 per family. Sm ef Mwt pr-o.veiwwl was ef wo actual vatee, how ever, bwzause the eost of living bad gon up at fee same time.

The comparable rise In the United States was 35 per cent and, in the Pacific States, 43 per cent, The average growth rate throughout -the country during the 15 years, on the basis of family income, was $120 a year. Since the $120 represents cash income only, farm families did not show to as good advantage as did urban families because some of their returns were in the form of rent-free housing and in goods produced and con sumed on the farm. 1 BXECTION TIME A pedestrian strolls by a building in Caracas, Venezuela, which is wall-papered with election posters.

Edited by Mrs. Alma Denny. (Copyright bv Qenoal Feature? Corp.) Amy S. I'm not sure adopt ing this child is a good idea. Belle K It's a stroke of good fortune for her marriage. Amy S. My husband is 20, I'm 18, and we're married four months. Because we're so young we decided to postpone having a family for a few years, even though Matt makes an excellent salary. But now his brother has just been divorced, with custody of a two-year-old boy, and has asked us to adopt the child. My feelings are mixed. The baby is darling, but my marriage is so new and I know so little about children. Belle K. As Amy's best friend I'm trying to persuade her to agree to the adoption. Teen-age marriages are sup posed to be pretty rocky and having a little boy in the home right now at the beginning would certainly cement Amy's and Matt's. Even though this would tie them down sooner than Amy wishes, it would be worth the sacrificc.If she gives up this chance, suppose it turns out she can't have any herself? The Council: statistic is at Occasionally a itself, offers an eloquent reply. Couples who move most grace fully into parenthood, says a University of Houston report, are those who are married three or more years before having a baby, and take courses in prep aration. . . Amy's dilemma is not one that can be solved by a columnist, much less by friend Belle. The Council, however, can underline the facets of the problem so as to emphasize its complexity and send Amy to an adoption agency for a thorough talking-out. Our "snap" judg ment, from the face of things, is Don't. You are barely out of childhood yourselves, Amy. There are many mature, child less couples who are pining (as you are not) for a toddler to adopt. Also, suppose Matt's brother made the offer so as to be able to get the child back some day? Or, what if his wife gets the custody ruling re versed. . . For the child's sake as well as yours, let the experts guide your decision. He's had one bad break.
