Hanson Featured Speaker MIDDLE YEARS BRING NEW ROLES TO FAMILY LIVING The middle years of life bring new roles to family members and create new challenges for husband and wife, says Roberta Frasier, family life specilist, Oregon State University Coo perative Extension Service. In the age group from about 40 to 65 are families whose children are launched or are being launched. It’s the pe riod before “official” retire ment. Sociologists have defined this as the “empty nest” period, Mrs. Frasier comments. The Youth Circus To Appear Max Hanson of Boise, Ame rican Legion National Vice Commander, will be the fea tured speaker at the Nyssa Amalgamated Sugar Company employees dinner Friday, Fe bruary 12, 7 p.m. at the La- Paloma Restaurent in Ontario, with Calvin L.

Results were so .significant that the United States Public Health Service awarded the State Board of Higher Education $3,706,000 to erect the Portland structure and a satellite Clinical Services Center on the University of Ore gon campus in Eugene where primary emphasis is on spe cial education for the retarded. Backed up by $1,365,000 from the 1967 Oregon legislature, construction began in 1968. Grants from the U.S. Depart ment of Health, Education and Welfare Health Services and Mental Health Administration have supplemented the pro fessional training programs since 1967, with a 1970-71 grant of $622,379 providing staff sala ries and fellowship and trainee stipends for 22 post-graduate students. These years provide oppor tunity for companionship, for shared activities. Although parents’ responsibilities have been accepted cheerfully through the years, many parents express relief and a feeling of light heartedness when the child ren are on their own. The couple has many of the advantages of the early years of marriage with the added bonus of an adjust ment pattern, shared memories and generally a better financial picture. c Ik. • 69' « KQ lb I SAUSAGE 8 lbs. for CCt « 10 CARROTS 18c 2 lb. pack lb.

Make sure you leave a number where you can be reached conveniently by the telephone. Some women find personal satisfaction in volunteer work. Others devote themselves to their families, or the pursuit of personal interests. For the vast majority of in dividuals and couples, says Mrs. Frasier, years after the child ren are grown are “the frosting on the cake” as far as marriage is concerned. GROUND ROUND n Love thy neighbor. Paint thy house. “Who am I?” How can I make the best use of these years?“, they ask. Nearly half the women at this stage move into the labor mar ket. For families with child ren in school or with aged parents, this may be a period of heavy financial responsibi lities and an added paycheck may be a necessity. Others work for personal satisfaction or to fill time. SMOKED PICNICS r\Q; I FULLER PAINT SALE | Chairman Sarchiapone also stated that sharing the enter tainment spotlight will be the Wright Brothers (Al, Leroy and Tony), a popular western mu sical trio from Ontario, and Mark Moncur, one of Nyssa’s favorite vocalists. Cecil Evans of the Fruitland Methodist church will give the invoca- tion. This employee- sponsored dinner will celebrate two events, , the end of the 1970 beet | processing season and Abraham Lincoln’s 162ndbirth- day.

Those appointed to the re maining dinner committees are Jan and Betty Phifer, Gwen Snyder and Cathy Anderson, re gistration; Neils Larsen, Earl Ware and Herman Ford, seating arrangements. children have left the nest and flown out into the world. Another term used for this period of life is the launching years. However, many women ques tion the designation of this pe riod as the “empty nest” stage since some of their family re sponsibilities continue, notes Mrs. Frasier. Although the children may have flown or been launched, they frequently come back to port, Daughters also bring their children and husbands. Many mothers assume a major role in the care of grandchild ren. And big family dinners are not a thing of the past for middle aged Oregon women. During the middle years chil dren may be in college but home for vacations, or they maybe in college and live at home. With the growth of community col leges, more young people con tinue at home for an extra two years while attending college. Other young people may work and stay at home. The high school dropout, the unemployed youth may be a part of the family picture. The middle years, for many couples, is a time of increased responsibility for their parents. A time when middle-aged “children” adopt almost the same feeling of responsibility for their parents as they for merly felt for their children. Divorce rates increase during this period, too, says Mrs. Frasier. Many couples have been unhappy, but stayed to- gether until the children were grown, terminate the marriage at this time. Others may ex perience unhappiness and dis satisfaction at this stage of life with their marriage and with their own personal life. It is a time of renewed seeking of self-identity.
