Remember the letter from Heart
broken?" Her story was the one
concerning the struggles Of young
love ve@:us the ambitious mama, in
which young love was doing its
darndest to deliver the knockout
drops in the form of a wedding ring
have so often repeated that there
is no new trouble in the world, that
the only thing that makes each
problem a thing alone, an individual
world struggle, is the individual him
self. his environment, his outlook
on life
Certainly, innumerable persons
have been confronted with the prob
lem of choosing between love and
money, wealth and luxury or love
and mediocrity. The decisions have
been made and the mistake of it all
realized. A great many times it is
the parent who was so insistent upon
the wealth match who suffers most
from the affair. Sometimes it is the
wife, and not infrequently the hus-
band.
Advice to "Hcartbroken"
Two women who have had to make
the choice have sent in words of
| advice to little "Heartbroken." Two
women, both of whom chose love,
sent forth their experiences for the
profit of those about to make the
same decision.
And, of course, each person being
as individual as her finger prints,
their reactions to the situation has
been as different.
Dear Miss Lcc-I would like to say q
word to Heartbroken, whose letter ap-
| peared in The Times. If she loves this
boy as much as she says she does. she
should not give him up for any ono.
I was placed in just such position, my
comfortable home, everything I had been
used to. against the man I loved, I took
the step. married him. I have been mar
trials. just loads of them. We have been
up against things I never had to think
of before my marriage, financial worries
| But VIC met them together and came out
smiling. VIC are not rich today, but ne
arc all we'll and aTfully happy wouldn't
give up my home and my husband for all
the money and comforts I could have en-
| ioyed. had I married the man my mother
wished me to.

On the other hand, just read what

has to offer in the way of advice.
Apparently Boots" has not been so
happy with her love in their cottage.
Dear Miss Leo-I am writing this to
"Heartbroken." whose letter appeared in
your column several days ago. I would

known. because of the thrifty ways ny
parents had.

my parents could say nothing good for
more than year I have a small son.
MY husband was poor when married him.

could not see anything ahead for us he
just walked out Ny parents never have

Think we'll on these things before you
take the step. "Heartbroken.' Things
could be so much worse. The world will
