Is widower married or single
man?
This question continually crops UP
and II is continually being answered
both ways. Certainly a widower is
married-he is not bachelor. That
is one answer. Certainly, on the other
hand, no matter what the man once
was, he is single now. That is the
other answer. Thus in all match
games of single against married men
games of hockey, football, baseball,
cricket-the poor widower Is tossed
from one side to the other like shut
tleclock. The solution depends solely
upon his skill.
