THE WOMEN-- Young Widows Story Indicates War-Marriage Is Worth Gamble

of wartime marriage because she loved a young man enough to feel that she would rather be married to him a little while and accept what ever might be in store for her. than to run the risk of never marrying him at all.
 She is a heart broken girl, or course. But she is going on with her job. and she has moro peace of mind now than she would have had if she had been afraid to risk marriage. She says, and means, that if she had decided against marrying during wartime she would never have forgiven herself. And she prob- ably wouldn't have felt very close to her parents, either.

QUESTIONS AND A1SwERS
 The Bowling Green

Your occasional allusions to the grand old game of bowling warns the cookies of my heart. It would he a great pleasure if you could stop of some time when you travel this way and play a game on our green. We have four fine greens ilere and many top notch bowlers,
 (T. L. M
 Answer-Thank you. I talk c much better game than I bowl, but by hook or crook I manage to lay down a mean wood occasionally and when I do you can hear me laughing for blocks around.
 Anxiety
 Ordinarily my pulse rate and blood pressure are normal, but whenever I undergo physical ex- animation I seem to be under great nervous strain and both increase considerably. tE. HD
 Answer-That is not abnormal. The physician should wait until you are at ease. after a half hour or so, and cheek the measurements. Or. if you can get any quinine. take one or two grains of quintne twice a day for q week or 50 be- fore the examintion. This prevents examination jitters, stage fright etc.
 Enlarged Thymus
 My baby has enlarged thymus gland. He crows heavily ard it iS frfahtening. (Mrs. J. J. S)
 Answer-Many babies have en- lareed thymus Gas shown in x-ray fiIm) and no symptoms or trouble at all. The gland Is normally large in newborn infants and gradually shrinks in early childhood. x-ray tretments seem to reduce it and to relieve the growing or noisy breathing in many cases. Young Bill had it, with respiratory stridor. dyspepsia, asthmatic attacks, crow ing. difiicult swallowing and allereic skin reactions. and extremely large adenoids. I watched the child struggling for breath several nights and finally got up courage to have the adenoidS and tonsils removed when he was bout 2s years old. No trouble at all. and thereafter he began to get relief from all the symptoms, and at six he is a healthy youngster. I don't know a thing about enlarged thymus.

 "whlle our winter ills are due Co bacterial and virus infections, scientific evidence shows the impor. tant relationship of lowered resist. ances and changes Of weather to these conditions"
 | challenge the arbitrary asser. ton that "scientltic evidence" shows any such thing. [ challenge these experts" or any medisal or scientific person to define lowered resistance" or to show that change of weather, drafts, ordinary at- mospheric conditions to which wc are all necessarily exposed every day have anything Go do with An individuals immunity to any spe. ciflc disease.
 If tho governments fuel conser- vation program is to be based on this threadbare line. st win proh- ably save enough fuel to warm the cookies Of Adolf Hitler's heart,
 Notwithstanding this funda- mental weakness in the fuel saving campaign, the government offers some good practical suggestions to help people keep cool and well this winter, or In other words to keep cool and comfortable. Only, I don't like the way the government says 1t. Double comfort standards be. tween men and women are duo largely to differences in dress or clothing, the experts say, and there extra insulation worn by women I believe they are right. But the the panniculus adiposus or blanket of fat every women has under her skin-practically compensateS for the scantiness of the clothing of women compared with the clothing of men.
 Every individual is his own clothing engineer and should be brought to realize that a heavier dress or suit. an extra undergar- ment or ovcrgarment may do much toward winter health and comfort iu overcool rooms. Wear a sweater and help win the warl Application of this knowledge would do much to prevent dissatisfaction and pos- sible i'll effects of cooler indoor temperatures and drafts during the winter
 There they go again-right back to the eighteenth century. Why in the name of common sense couidn'f these dear old ladies stick to the comfort and efficiency idea ard leave their superstitions out of the picture7
 My advice to any man, woman or child is this: If you feel more con- fortable wearing any sort of extra undergarment. overgarment, sweat CT. hat. wear it and be comfortable On the other hand if you find 4 more comfortable to go without such clothing. by all means go without it-and unless you are an idiot don't let any one tell you when you should or should not wear the iongies. the greatcoat. the hat os the sweater. If you are more than three years of age ard of sound rlind, for gosh sakes have enough sumption to be your own clothing engineer.

mot pray. Drake's world had turned its back on him. She used to look 8 little wistfully, little yearningly at that world and wish she were in 1t, and of 1t. She re- called Drake's aunt, Mrs. Living stone. She had seemed to Randy the very peak of elegance and charm. But what of all of those people who should have helped Drake when he needed 1t?
 And now: her father, hard and knotty from years of hard work. ..
 Randy returne dto the kitchen.
 They sat in silence for 8 time. Then MT. Monaghan stcd up.
 "Now you listen to me, daugh- ter"
 "A1l right"
 T never said anything to you about Drake when he began com- ing around here. IT just didn't know what to think. I feel awful bad that everything's turned out this way, but we got to take everything as it comes. Now, like I asked you a while, ago, how we going to fix this up?"
 "I guess I know what you mean. I'm going to marry Drake"
 The old man looked searchingly at her. The underlid of his eyes sagged little.
 Is that the way you want to do it?"
 "I've got to convince him, some way. I'll think 1t out"
 'Randy, you're a god girl"
 ~Now look here. There's one thing. There's just me. So this house is yours anyhow. saved q little money. Amt any of us go- ing to starve."
 "Ill think of something. First of all, I'm going to send cable to Paris Mitchell. There's been enough of this foonshness."
 "You ought to let Mitchell know, I think"
 I'm going to-right today"
 Randy dressed again and went out. It was horribly cold, but she scarcely noticed 1t. She was ex- cited, and terrified, too. How Drake could be managed was the real question. He'd be mad, no doubt, about letting Paris know, but she was certain that she should.
 She wrote carefully, crossing out words, and finally rewrote the whole message. It was a Succinct but full account of the loss of Drake's money, and the accident. She bit the eraser in the pencil for a moment or two, and added: T must keep him with me some how"
