make him understand?
SYLVIA.
I wouldn't drop him entirely if |
were you. Continue TO write to him,
but let your letter show less in
terest. You are at perfect liberty
TO go with other boys since this
one did not ask you to marry him
and gain your consent. He will
understand how you feel by the
tone of your letters. Also write
less frequently.
Dear Mrs Thompson: l am a
married woman, 80 years old and
have seven children. l think the
world and all of them and love my
husband dearly, although l am
sorry to say l have had my share
of trouble. Another woman has
come between my husband and me.
They have been living together as
rryhn I hic n w
full wife before God and man. He
sends me. money to live on and
care for the children. l have all
the children now. There is a party
who told me he was going to try
to kidnap the children to torture
me. his wife. If true, that would
kill me-
still love my husband and would
take him back if he would only
come and love ME again. Please
tell me what to do to win my hus-
band from the other woman.
BROKEN
Don't worry about your husband
kidnapping the children. Such an
idea is ridiculous. The other wom-
an would not consent to the care
of the children Besides. you may
rest assured that your husband is
not trying to torture you. He is
most surely tortured with the
thought of the injustice he has
done you by giving his love to the
other woman. and he would not
add to your suffering by taking the
children
Your love is very great or you
would not be willing to take your
husband back after what he has
done. You must learn to be con-
tent without him. because nothing
you can do will bring him back. 1t
may be that when he is older he
will long for you and his children
and will then seek your forgive
ness.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I wish
very much to become a Red Cross
nurse. l am IS. l have just a COM
mon school education. How long
| does it take before you can go to
France? COUNTRY GIRL.
1t takes three years hospital
training to become a Red Cross
nurse. A high school education is
required.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: % We
are two girls of Is. Are we too
young to wear high-heeled shoes?
90 There are a couple of boys
that we know just we'll enough to
speak to. How can we gain their
friendship?
90 Is it proper for us to dance
with boys? LOVING FRIENDS.
% The best dressed girls of
your age do not wear high-heeled
shoes
90 Do not try to gain their
friendship. You are too young to
have boy friends.
90 1t is all right to go to dane
ing school and dance with boys. but
you are too young to attend regu-
lar dances.
