Entry Try
Investigated
An attempted break-in at the
A. H. Stewart Company, 821
Spring Street, and the theft of
three sets of truck keys at Kl-
lingson Timber Company, w
South Fourth Street, were inves
tigated by the Klamath Kalis Po
lice Department.
A patrolman on his regular
rounds noticed fresh pry marks
on the front door at the Stewart
Company at 2.30 a.m. Tuesday.
Kntry was not gained and police
were told that apparently nothing
was missing.
Keys were taken from three
trucks at the Kllinqson parking
lot sometime over the weekend,
police reported.
The keys are normally left in
the trucks so the vehicles can,
be moved in case of fire. Police
and mill representatives suspect i
that youngsters were involved in j
the theft. ll
Even Mom Can Err
By Insulting Wife
Dear Ann Landers: Wilfred's
mother is a domineering woman.
I've tried to stay out of her way
because she has
a sharp tongue
and a hot tern
per.
Last week we
took our children
to G r a n n y's
house. The two-
year-old got hold
of an ash trav
and started to bang it on the floor.
When I tk it awav from him he
began to cry. Granny snatched
the ash tray out of my hands and
cave it to the child saving. "If
he breaks it so what? It's only
an ash tray."
I was irritated and replied, "I'm
trying to teach the boy respect
lor property. He is my child
and 1 don't think you should inter
fere."
Granny shot back, "He's your
child, all right, but is he Wil
fred's? We haven't had a brown
eyed blonde in our lamily lor a
hundred years."
My husband heard this and said
nothing. I almost bawled. When
we got home I told Wilfred he
should have spoken up but he
said, "She is my mother and I
must always respect her.
Was he right or wrong lo re
main silent? CRUSHED WIFE
Dear Wife: No husband should
allow such a damaging remark to
go unchallenged. It was unmanly
of Wilfred U remain silent. Your
husband's reply to his mother
need not have been disrespectful.
Hut a single sentence expressing
complete confidence in you was
clearly in order.
Dear Ann lenders: What are
you trying to do set lemales back
50 years?
1 almost swallowtd my gum
when you told the girl who was
planning to be married that she
and her husband should own ev
erything "jointly." You said
The less thine and mine the bel
ter."
A husband is supposed to sup
port his wife, isn t he? It not,
what does she need him for?
I've been married five years
My salary is almost as big as my
husband's. He doesn't see one pen
ny of my check. He gives me $110
a week to run the house. He
waved your stupid column under
my nose and said. "See. this is
what I've been trying to tell you."
He thinks we should pool our
checks and put something away
every month for our retirement.
1 say, "Nothing doing." I'm put
ting my money awav for me. He
can take care of himself. DUMB
LIKE A VOX
Dear Dumb Fox: I doubt that
vour husband married vou to
gloin on to vour paycheck. He
probably exleeted love, compan
ionship and understanding. Your
letter suggests he is getting noth
ing fiut of this marriage and
paying $110 a week for it.
To borrow vour phrase, "What
did he need vou for?"
Dear Ann Landers: Six months
ago my niece's engagement was
announced. The wei.ding was set
for March. We were all delighted
The young man came from f
prominent family and all the
prospects for a good life were
present.
Several parties were given to
honor the couple and my niece
eceived some beautiful wedding
gifts. Last week the mother of
the bride-to-be wrote a cryptic
three-line note to all members of
the immediate family saying the
engagement has been broken. This
morning the gift we sent was re
turned.
No one has a clue as lo why the
wedding is off. It's insulting to be
left totally in the dark and treat
ed as if we were strangers. I feel
they owe the family an expla
nation. Do you agree? SLAPPED
IN THE FACE
Dear Face: I do not. The rea
sons are none of your business. In
evitably, this is a painful expe
rience for the young girt and her
family, and if you want to make
the ordeal more bearable, don't
ask anv questions.

Shasta Council Studies
Flashing Light Problem
MOUNT SHASTA - At its regu
lar meeting Feb. A the Mount
Shasta City Council heard a re
port from the supervisor of public
works, Charles Echols, that the
red warning lights on all de
partment of public works' vehi
cles were now illegal and must
be replaced w ith amber flashing
lights. The city needs 12 lights
at a cost of $10 each, but they are
unobtainable at this time.
At Echols' suggestion, the
council voted to purchase for $113
the base station radio which has
been in use in the police depart
ment. Echols also slated that pub
lic works and fire equipment need
new frequency radios. His report
included that the south Mount
Shasta sewer sleeve was com
pleted, and the contractor will
start on Monday pulling in the
sleeve pipe under the Southern
Pacific tracks.
A proposed improvement and
rebuilding with county and state
aid of Lake Street, preparatory
to construction of the freeway,
was discussed. Lake Street will
join two federal and two county
roads. Echols is to meet next
week with the Board of Super
visors for further planning. Ech
ols was appointed to check on a
used reconditioned three cubic
yard street sweeper, worth $10,000
ind available to the city (or $6,750
in San Francisco. The city has a
$1,050 credit with the sweeper
company on the old city roller
which can be applied on the cost
of the sweeper.
Street lights are to he changed
at East Jessie and Alder streets.
and at Birch and Ivy streets. A
new light is to be installed at
Ida and D streets, and a light
ordered for Lake and Maple
streets. Police Chief Harold Bar-
num announced that the signal
lights for Lake Street and t h a
highway and Alma Street and the
highway would be installed in
March or early April.
Council was in favor of having
the Rotary Club place several
40-inch square cedar planters on
the city streets, with four varia
tions of trees from which to
choose.
Echols is to investigate the pos
sibility of using the South Yard
building for a public works shop.
The appraisal on South Yard is
linal. and the yard can be used
under a use permit. When the
freeway goes through It can then
be reappraised.
Under civil defense, each coun
cilman was advised that he must
choose three persons for standby
duty in case of national emergen
cy and if a councilman is ten
dered incapable of doing his job.
Barnum and Echols were appoint
ed to attend a one-day school at
Beale Air Force Base to learn
the procedure of caring for mili
tary aircraft and personnel that
might fall in this area.
In other business Fletcher Hoyt
of the Ski Patrol requested $100
from council for the purchase of
walkie-talkie radio equipment for
rescue work. The request was
taken under consideration.
Gloria P. Barnum was appoint-
ed city treasurer to fill the un
expired term of Clarice Vacent,
who resigned.

ELECTRIC
APPLIANCES :
Here's what Mrs. Dean Mason of Klamath Falls says about electric living . . .
Electricity helped us build our home, and now
it helps us live a wonderful, comfortable life"
NOT A CONTEST! NOTHING TO BUY! COME IN FOR DETAILS!
.uart it
The Mason family certainly
keeps me running full time!
"Electric power tools made building our new home
easier and helped us do the job the way we wanted.
Naturally, we included all the latest electric conveni
ences from a dishwasher to outdoor lighting. All-electric
living is really a blessing when you have a growing
family. I count on electric helpers for cooking, washing,
water heating and nearly every household job there is.
It's the hardest-working service I know of and is cer
tainly our biggest value."
Thousands of other Pacific Tower & Light customers,
Like Mrs. Mason and her family, live better because
they make generous and effective use of modern
electric service.
