Dear Mrs. Thompson: / used to
60 with young man and liked him
as a friend He said he loved me
and asked me to be his wife, but l
refused. He still kept me company
One evening I introduced him TO
one of my girl friends and he asked
il I cared IL he went with her. l
told him I did not. He asked her
to be his wife, but lately they split
I'M and he has come back to me and
asked me for steady company. L
refused and then he started going
with another friend of mine. He
also asked her the same question.
Do you think he really knows what
he wants? What is your opinion
of him. BOB-
The young man wants to marry
and he is meeting with disappoint-
ments. 1 don't blame him In the
least for looking elsewhere when
he found he couldn't have you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: have
three cons who smoke cigarets.
Their ages are IL, IA and II years.
My husband also smokes a great
deal and he thinks it is right to let
his boys smoke, too. They can't
make any Roadway in school and
good boys will not associate with
them. 1t makes my heart ache to
see my husband hand them all the
cigarets they want
Please advise me what to do to
make them quit smoking. Do you
think it will hurt them after they
become young men?
WORRIED.
You poor womani To fight the
cigaret habit with your sons when
your husband wilfully encourages
it is indeed a problem.
To plead with the boys that their
brains and growth will be stunted
will probably not influence them in
the least. Nevertheless it is true.
You may be able to bribe them to
stop by doing something for them
that they would like better than the
cigarets. OF course I do not know
how much money you have to do
with. You might, however, be able
to save to buy a kodak, bicycle, or
to give the boys two weeks at a
boys camp in the summer. AS a

You may be able to influence vour
