Should Appliances
Come With House?

tually the owners went broke
and the holder of the mortgage
foreclosed. He claimed the
stoves and refrigerators in

part Of the real property and
produced evidence to show this
had been agreed upon when
the money was loaned. But the
trustee Of the bankrupt estate
claimed the appliances as per-
sonal property belonging to the
owners-and got them. The
court held that appliances dc
not become part Of the real
property simply because the
owner and mortgage holder
agree that they should.

II is important he go TO a coll

may prove to be far more re-
sponsible when away from

We would suggest that the
H. Ms put Eddie on trial during
his senior year at high school
They would agree to LAY of
bothering him about taking
care Of himself. but he must
prove himself fully capable Of
showing restraint and judy
ment in his daily life. We real
lie this could lead to a lot OF
arguments about what consti-
tutes restraint and judgment,
so we'd suggest a general agree
ment be drawn up containing
some very concrete stipulations
We recognize 1t may be posi-
bic for Eddie to. pass his triaI
period fairly successfully with
the idea Of letting loose" when
he gets to college. So there
should be room for his parents
to make a final decision based
on Eddie'S general maturity
He may change a great deal in
one year and the habits of his
trial period may become fairly
fixed.
His parents should show they
are prepared to be honest and
fair and that they want him
to go to the college of his
choice. 1t is up to him to prove
he is ready to do 1t.
We suggest that parents who
have the same problem with
healthy boys and girls try the
same method.

A few years ago it was the
exception rather than the rule
for coronary thrombosis pa
tients TO- continue their d.
cumarol for weeks and months
after their attack. 1t was con-
sidered too dangerous to allow
patients to take the drug while
they went about their ordinary
business and social activities,
The possibility Of hemorrhage
was the ever-present fear. Now
all that has changed.
For example, the other day
I struck up a delightful con-
versation with a stranger while
having lunch at a drugstore
counter. After a while he said:
Guess I'll have to be leaving
Got an appointment to have
my prothrombin time checked
at my doctors. Had a coronary
last year and have been taking
dicumarol since"
He is only one Of thou
sands of patients who carry or
while they take their "blooc
thinners" in the form of g
dicumarol pill or something
similar. When you are con-
scientious; when you take the
medicine as directed and dom
overlook your appointments
for prothrombin checking
there is little likelihood o.
complications such as hemor'
lrhage.

The Supreme Court of Oregon
has ruled on q case with much
interest for people who are buy
ing or selling houses. The ques-
ton at issue was this: when
you sell your home, do you have
a right to take your stove and
refrigerator with you-or. on
the other hand, when you buy
a house can you expect to have
the stove and refrigerator come
with It?
The answer might surprise
you. especially II you live in an
area where 1t is customary for
stoves and refrigerators to stay
put. once installed.
For the Oregon court. after
reviewing general law on the
subject, pointed out that mod
ern stoves and refrigerators are
not normally fixtures. They
are not real property but per-
sonal property and may thus be
removed by the seller or owner
Appliances such as refrigerators
and stoves. 1t was held. do not
become part Of the realty when
they are movable and can be
disconnected by pulling a plug
or unScrewing a gas connection,
so long as this can be done
without damaging thep remises
Contract Specifications
What makes the rule seem in
consistent with practice in some
areas is the fact that 1t does
not apply If there are contract
provisions to the contrary. Thus
many home sale contracts, es-
pecially in metropolitan regions
stipulate the premises as sold
or purchased shall include such
items as stove. screens. refrige-
rator. blinds, etc. II this is the
situation, then the named ap-
planes must remain in the
domicile or be replaced by
others.
In the Oregon case. a couple
who ran q bakery decided to
convert their building into -four
apartments. They borrowed
money to do 1t, mortgagine

Edward MI am a i6-year-
old boy having a big fracas with
my parents over my impending
college career.
! have picked several colleges
that ! want TO apply to, all OF
them quite far from my home
My parents want me TO go TO a
college right near our commu-

go TO this college who have told
me that it's rotten-poor teach
ing. large classes and little
freedom.
My parents want me TO go to

can't afford to send me out Of

me and want TO watch me. /

work to meet my additional ex-
penses.
Mrs. II. M.-My husband and
I don't want to baby Eddie. but
we are often forced TO because
Of his own actions.
He was quite sickly as a
child. and although he has
outgrown some Of his physical
problems, he still must take
/, care Of himself-get enough
rest, take precautions in bad
weather. avoid violent exercise.
We find we have to keep after
him constantly to get him to
observe the simplest rules. He
stays out much too late. pays
no attention to any Of the
precautions the doctor has ad-
vised and never turns down a
chance to knock himself out.
Eddie Just wants to get away
from home and tries to use the
excuse that the college in our
community is no good. Many
people think well Of it.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
A once-sickly adolescent boy.
now hell bent on proving his
independence and stamina,
certainly spells double trouble
to the parents. He's just like
every teen-age boy-only much
more so.

1t was, then, a great trial
for him to be called away by
the King of France, Louis
XVII, in 1924, to be Bishop
of Montauban-but he was too
much of a royalist and French
man to refuse the summons.
In 1926, he was promoted
to the Archbishopric of Bor-
deaux, and in 1885 was made
a Cardinal; a few months after
this dignity was conferred on
him, he died.

whose life is the subject Of
Lancelot Sheppard's Portrait
Of a Parish Priest Mewman,
$3.50 Shorter than Msgr.
Trochu's definitive life, this
book makes St. Jean Vianney
more understandable to and
approachable by, the English
or American reader, who
sometimes finds the. French
biographies too sentimental.
Mr.. Sheppard omits no inn
portant detail, neither about
the rigid fasts and penances
of the Cure nor about the mys-
terious visitations by the pol
tergeist or whatever it was
that st. Jean called "the Crap
pin" His plain, straightfor-
ward style is very appealing,
and to least one reader he
made the Cure Of Ars much
more 4 figure of reality, depth
and humanity, than other BIZ
ographers have succeeded in
doing. AS the model and pa
tron of all parish clergy, the
Cure deserves to be known,
