For you who continue to
worry over the privations you
think you will suffer on your
small retirement income, here
"a another case history - Of
"a couple retired in one OF
the loveliest towns in Cali
fornia on 1902 a month.
According to the husband,
the 1902 budget is not diff
ficult, chiefly because we
planned very carefully and
for quite some time for this
major change in our lives"
The couple had lived in the
Midwest during the husbands
working years. When retire
inent came they chose Cali
fornia (their married daugh-
ter lives there, and decided
to move their household
furnishings with them. I'VE
believed" says the husband,
shat unfurnis he'd living
SPACE would be less expensive,
but also that having our own
things about us would APP
pfeciably lessen the shock Of
the change in our lives.
sWe did not have a rigid
figure in mind when we made
our move" the husband con-
tinues, but we aimed tenta-
lively at 5000 a month.
-"We set certain conditions
We wished to meet in our
search for a place to live. We
wished to be fairly near our
daughters family. near
enough to markets, trans
portation and church 50 we
would not need q car. We
wanted q quiet residential
neighborhood where the at
moSphere was home-like.
"After some time. and much
searching, we found a four
room apartment in an older
residence, on q good street
where they take in the side
walks.at 9 pm. We got good
neighbors, good views both
front and back, many flowers
and shrubs and lawn on every
side, and above all a fine
landlord. For this, plus utili-
ties, washing machine and
heat we pay $65 a month. :"
Ut is in their attitude to-
ward housing, second only to
appetites for expensive food,
that most retired people
make their budget mistakes.
Pride keeps them from
searching out the quite
splendid living quarters that
can be found in the old
homes in the older neighbor-

couple set up their way Of
life. and for 20 months now
have lived on this budget:
Rent, SOS; food (all Of it,,
SIS; hospital insurance, $25;
medical, dental bills, $40;
tithing Church and other),
ST. miscellaneous "a CATCH
all for newspapers, telephone,
personal care, etc. $50.
The budget Is flexible, the
husband explains, and is
backed up by a modest saw
ings account. But for the %
months it has worked out
about as listed above. Both
the husband and wife have
had major surgery since
moving to California, but
their hospital insurance was
designed to take care Of the
major medical costs. THE
premium Is high, but we be-
lieve it is the part Of wisdom
to take care Of this matter in
our budget rather than ex-
pect our children to bear the
cost. :"
The couple says they have
not changed their manner Of
eating since retiring except
that we now eat our largest
meal at noon instead Of in
the evening. We are frugal in
our buying. We try to watch
for bargains in certain foods
and lay in a moderate sup
ply. We are not heavy meat
eaters. but have eaten much
chicken over the last year
or two. We are teased by our
friends for the amount Of
fruits and vegetables we con-
sumo, but that Is the way we
like it.
"Our garbage can Is en-
tirely innocent concerning
leftovers. We have none"
The Californians don't
necessarily think any other
couple could, would, or
should conform to their way
of living. They only think 1t
might be helpful for other
couples to be assured that re-
tirement on 5000 q month Is
not only possible. but can be
had with happiness.

The simple truth is it's
very hard for teen-agers to
find jobs today, especially
summer jobs.
A recent survey showed is
per cent of high school grad
yates looking for full time
work are unemployed.
But teen-agers want to
work-they are not lazy. Not
only do they need to earn
money to give them q feeling
of independence, but also
they need to feel they are
doing useful work in the
world.
Now these young people are
facing a crisis. The trends in
our modern society with its
child labor laws and increas-
ing shortage of nontechnical
jobs have produced a giant
problem - many more teen
ayers looking for work and
fewer jobs open for those
with their training.

as Fairgrounds, swimming
pools and child centers, to
determine where young peo-
pie can be Of service-with
and without pay. They have
visions Of absorbing some of
the time and emerge Of every
teen-ager in the city.
Such projects are of value
far beyond that Of keeping
the youngsters busy. Think.
for example, Of the training
these teen-agers may get
from such jobs.
AS another example, the
aquatic division Of the rec
reation department in Long
Beach, Calf. has programs to
teach swimming and small
boat sailing. A few boys and
girls, aged IL or above who
have passed their life-saving
tests, work as assistants to
the regular intructor.
Training For Future
While these youngsters get
no pay. they are introduced
to the art Of teaching and
