er and father. They fed her then,
naturally, but l clothed and educat-
ed her, worried over her when she
was ill. .at
"Now she is 10, and she wants to
live with her grandmother. That is
the long and the short Of it. She
loves her, father; he is managing
the small farm now, and he and her
grandmother worship Jean. She
wants to go to school with a little
girl who lives near, she wants to
help Granny cook, and she and Dad
dy manage everything and have so
much fun.
81 admit that it is a more nat
ural life for her than living in a SAN
itarium filled with detectives and
psychopaths, but what about me?
Have no rights? Now that she is a
fine, independent, self-reliant little
human being, rather than an exact
ing and delicate baby, Paul wants
her, of course.
A Bitter Blow.
''The thought that she wanted to
60 to him was so bitter to me at first
that I could not conceal it from her.
She cried for days, but when she
finally gave in it was with the air of
a martyr, and she made no secret of
the fact that her interest was out at
the farm. She telephoned her father
every night, and nothing that / did
or offered in the way of movies or
new frocks interested her.
''What shall I do? Give up my
child, the very light of my life, or
keep her and trust that after time
she will turn to me again? We have
most of our meals in the big dining
room, but I have a nice suite of
three rooms, including small
kitchen where can arrange an &C.
casional little feast for just the two
of us. We have many perquisites,
rent, light, service, meals, hot wa
ter, linen, but Jean says lately that
she hates the institution, the wards
and the smells of the halls and ele-
vators. Is it fair that after ignor-
ing his responsibility for her when
she most needed him, her father
should have the pleasure of her
company now? His mother, I will
say, is a wonderfully fine woman,
and I am not surprised that Jean
adores Granny. Perhaps if I had
had Granny's sheltered life and
comfortable home I might be the
ca,,oo corf IF xxyoy,oa
Let Jean Go.
This is really sad letter, and
hard one to answer. But I think
that the answer is that Jean is the
person to consider, and that her
mothers best chance of winning the
child's heart is to be generous now.
Life with a loving father and won
derful grandmother on farm is
child's ideal Of perfect happiness,
especially when it is contrasted with
the bleakness and bigness of institu-
ton life. Jean probably suffers from
constant association with the defec-
tive and afflicted children, and finds
the coziness of her grandmother's ia
BILE delightful by comparison.
So I would give her up, if I were
Sally, as we all have to give up our
children sooner or later, and re-
joice that SO pleasant and safe
haven is ready for her, in world
in which SO many hundreds of chill
dren are neither safe nor happy.
Let that be the arrangement for
the present, Sally. But be very sure
that the future holds changes that
you cannot possibly anticipate.

Mann will bring his powerful

little possibility that his team will
be able to extend its margin of
victory to more than the 51-33

AHEAD OF JOE

We understand from a reliable
source that the little ice queen
netted at least S250,0O0 for herself
on one short tour. OF course, she
made far more than that from her
motion pictures, but we are in
terested here only in her earning
capacity as an athlete.
Next to Sonia comes Joe Louis,
the heavyweight champion. Joe
had a very poor year-for him.
He had only four fights last year
two with Arturo Godoy and one
each with Johnny Paycheck and
AL Mccoy. The total gates for
these four fights was around $780,
900 and Joe's share probably was
not much more than $4,000.
Well have 10 turn TO the turf
to find the next highest figures in
sport. 1t may surprise you 10 learn
that many jockeys have made as
much money as we pay the presi-
dent of the United States-S75 900.
Exact figures are not available
but we have reason to believe that
lads like Don Meade and Nick
Wall won't be far away from the
salary.
