HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS

Dear Mrs. thompson: I bear the
much abused epithet Of step-mother,
was widow without children, though
intensely fond of them, when l mar
ried again. My husband has two boys.
one ten years old and the other a
delicate child of three. Because
have not allowed the younger one GER
tain things to eat which were bad for
him, have been accused by some in
the neighborhood of starving him, yet
he looks far better since | have had
charge Of him. The neighbors look
askance at me and while they call
quite often, I have found 1t is merely
to find out more things to talk about.
How can women be 80 unreasonable
and cruel?
They are constantly trying to show
their sympathy for the children. I re-
allied when first became their step
mother that they had had little dis
cipline, but 1t was not in me to begin
with high hand. have never whip
ped them and I know they love me-.
I do not see why l have to endure this
neighborhood gossip. My husband has
suggested that we move. He owns a
house in another part Of town, but
we have such a pretty yard for the
children to play in, and the other place
has almost none. cannot consent to
living in a flat, either.
II only could hop, the people would
be nicer, l could endure it. Where l
used to live people were nice and kind
to their neighbors. 1t Is almost year
since l came here and have already
stopped returning their calls. for try
as l will, I cannot make myself like
them. My husband says l am too
sensitive-that l should ignore this
talk. have tried to, but find myself
aching with the sting Of being SO mis-
judged.

ACCORDING TO Dill recently passed
by congress and signed by the presi-
dent, on July II, man does not need
to wait for the judgment of the War
Risk Insurance Bureau in regard to
his compensation in order to receive
his assignment to vocational training.
All he needs is proof that the circum-
stances under which his disability was
incurred was such as to make him
eligible for compensation. Under the
previous ruling, the soldier or sailor
had to be in receipt of compensation
before he would begin vocational edu-
cation. This resulted in long delays.
Over 1000 men seeking vocational
training were deprived of it while they
waited for months for the conclusion Of
investigations being made by the bu-
reau to settle the validity of the mans
claims and to determine the per cent
of his disability. Cases pouring into
the central Office at the rate of 100
day made the situation constantly
worse. 1t is estimated that there are
at least 10000 more applications to be
received
