nEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

And he loves me. He has proved
it by offering marriage.
He had quite an accident and
is now in the hospital, but is
doing finely and will soon re-
turn home.
Here is my problem: His folks
are of different nationality and
his mother doesn't speak good
English--his reason for never
introducing me to them. This
used to make me so blue that
wondered whether he really
cared for me. Now, you see why
/ feel as though I just couldn't
go to his house to see him. Am
foolish-or even terrible--to let
such. a thing stand in the way at
a time like, this when he is i'll?
JUST GRATEFUL.
Since your friend loves you and
has asked you to marry him,
you and he surely can talk this
matter over frankly. Why do
you not ask, him before he leaves
the hospital whether you may
call at his home to inquire for
him until he is well enough to be
about again? Tell him the fact
that his mother does not speak
English will not make her an :
less dear to you. The fact that
she is his mother entities her to
your regard and affectionate con-
sideration.
He may refuse the request If
his home is poor and he is sensi-
tive and proud. If so, respect
his wishes AID stay away.
Be very sure that you and he
are well suited to each other, my
dear. before You decide to wed a
man with background so differ
