other man then came crawling
back to him when the other man
kicked you out. AS long as you are
agreeable and try to get along with
him, he tries to forget the injustice
you did him but when you an
tagOnize him, it awakens all the
resentment he still has in his heart.
No, you can't force him to marry
you. The bitterness that seems to
exist between you two is no basis
for marriage.
S. G. D.: What must I do about
the blood treatment I have in mind.
Should I take them as I want to
raise a child? Would it be better
for me to pay for them or go to
the city hospital?
Ans: l cannot emphasize strong
ly enough the importance of these
blood treatments nor the i'm
mediate need for them. To delay
these treatments may be disastrous
to your health. If you can't afford
to pay for private attention, do not
hesitate to go to the clinic. To
have baby, knowing that you
have a blood disease, would be an
objectionable sin. Wait until your
doctor prOnOunces you completely
well.
]. L. R.: am very much in love
with boy who is 9 years older
than l. He acts as though he is
very much in love with me. 1 have
son which is his, even though he
says it isn't. Do you think that
some day he will see fit to do the
right thing?
Ans: From a boy who claims to
be so in love with you, it is GER
tainly an insult to your character
for him to deny the child as being
his. He knows that he can have
you as a wife yet still keeps his
freedom to run around with other
girls and spend his money on them
SO he has little incentive to
marry you. Give him one final
chance to make you his legal wife.
If he refuses, just accept the fact
that you are wasting your time and
wash your hands of this fellow for
good.
C. B.: My daughter is so mean
and crabby. Why does she treat
me so bad? I can hardly put up
with her at times. Tell me what
to do.
Ans: In all due respect to your

New Drug Aids Fight
On Ailments of Heart

Discovery of new drug, which, it
is believed, will play an important
part in mans battle against the No.
l cause of death, heart disease, was
related recently at a meeting of 200
prominent western doctors under
auspices of the Los Angeles Heart
association.
The speaker on the new drug was
DR.. William D. Evans of Santa Bar
bara, formerly resident at the Los
Angeles County hospital and now an
officer in the U. S. army medical
corps.
Digitalis, which is a crude drug
extracted from the fox-glove plant,
is difficult to assay correctly and
therefore has to be administered
slowly-over periods of from "a
hours to three days-by swallowing,
he pointed out.
while it has saved thousands and
thousands of lives since it's discov-
cry about 1850, we always have
the problem of correct dosage be-
cause we cannot be certain of the
strength of the particular tablets,
nor of the patients ability to take
it," he stated, adding:
Nov with Lanatoside C. isolated,
identified and crystallized from the
old crude digitalis, we have a heart
stimulant that can be weighed &C.
curately, we know all the tablets
will be the same, and that, despite
this added safety, it has almost all
the good properties of the older
drug"
The main factor of Importance, he
pointed out, is that Lanatoside C.
can be given intravenously, thus
reaching full effectiveness in 10 min
utes, while digitais has to be given
carefully over the much greater
period.

sharp new car with our lassie. Our
heroine is thrilled as can be, be-
cause she feels she has won quite a
victOry-in fact, a double victory
the man she wants and a new car.
(What do you think of her vic
tories? She's worked too hard, it
seems to me, to get a man who
won't be with her long and a car
that soon won't be able to run be-
cause of our present tire shOrtage.)
I'm YOUR HOUR OF DESPAIR:
May 1 add my few words of con-
dolence to the many that have al
ready been sent to you, the
BROWN family of Minneapolis,
who are grieving the loss of your
sweet sister and daughter, BER-
NICE. This lovely girl, who was a
friend to all, will never really be
gone. Those of US who knew her,
can never forget her vibrant per-
sonality, her sunny disposition and
her winning ways and the e
thoughts shall forever be imprint
ed and imbedded in our memory.
THISA AND THATA:
The Twin City gals are all agog,
bein' that they have been asked Gas
a group to help entertain large
group of race soldiers who have
recently been stationed at Fort
Ripley, Mimi. IT'S said a number
of dances are bein' planned and I
mean the local gals will certainly
be thrilled to entertain such a large
importation of new men. SGT.

Just heard quite a persistent rumor
that SONNY" BELL has gifted

WOW for some of her friends out at

newly engaged couple, CECIL
TAYLOR, JR., and LEILA READY
are planning to waltz down the
aisle in the near future. And
what group of draft age widows"
(gals in their twenties) are getting
plenty angry at a number of early
teen age girls who are giving par
ties for the sole purpose of hooking
the few sensible boys who are left?
CThe gals in their twenties aren't
too worried though, cause the teen
age boys are really giving them a
merry chase.)
Well, friends, I'll really have to
be dashing along, but I'll be seeing
you again next week.

Unhappy: 1 have a good hus.
band but he likes to do all of the
bossing. He gives me all of his
money, but will not allow me to
buy anything except food. 1 am
not the wasting kind but like to
feel like l am more than a child
He wants to save every dime over
our expenses and 1 want to buy a
few things to wear occasionally.
Ans: 1t is to your advantage as
well as your huband's for him to
insist on saving consistently. He
is looking out for your future, in
wanting to provide for you in old
age. At least you have the consola-
ton of knowing that the money is
being saved, and not squandered.
In your case, I'm sure that if you
would arrange to get a part-time
job to buy the clothes and nice
things you want, your husband
would be perfectly willing for you
to spend it in that way.
T. D. B.: 1 am concerned about
school. I enter the 18th grade in
Sept. The last two years I haven't
had very much English and 1 am
worried about my Latin also.
will have very strict teachers this
year and 1 believe am going to
have to study pretty hard if I
graduate or do you think I should
"cut it,?
Ans: You have waited rather
late to become concerned about
graduating. I'll grant you that you
will have to study and study
hard if you expect to get your
diploma. Don't admit that you
have less ability than your class
mates. If they can pass these sub
jects, you can too. Forget the
cutting" and buckle down when
the time arrives.
P. P: I know that 1 have not
treated my husband right but it
seems that he won't ever forget.
When we start quarreling, he
throws it up to me and tells me to
get out of his sight. I went away
and stayed six years and when I
came home I had to beg my hus-
band to take me back. Is there any
way I can compel him to remarry
me? Or must I go on about my
business?
Ans: Once love is dead, it is
hard to revive it. Your husband
can never forget that you left him

Washington, April g.
Differences between war
time and peace-time psy-
chology in public affairs
were never more strikingly
Illustrated than in considera-
ton Of the new highway rum
ming northwest from Edmon-
ton to Fairbanks.
In peace-time, the choice Of a
route for this project had been O
subject for discussions, commissions,
hearings and reports, ever since
1880, Even before Pearl Harbor, de-
cision on this road would have been
accompanied by endless wrangllng.
In wartime, look what happens In
less than three weeks:
A route Is decided upon by the
Permanent Joint Board on Cana
dian-U. 8. defense. The two gov
ernments exchange notes agreeing
to the project without benefit OF
Congress scr Parliament, The U. S,
government agrees TO foot the entire
bill and maintain the road during
the war and six months thereafter,
when title and upkeep will revert
to Canada. U. Q, army engineers
are on their way to survey the route,
laying out q pioneer road, almost
before public announcement Is made
that the project has been agreed to.
PEACE-TIME DIRECTIONS
WOULD HAVE BEEN BITTER
In time Of peace, any such arbi-
trary action as this would have
raised not only the roof of the
capitol dome, but the polar Ice cap
as we'll.
There would have been public de-
bate for months and the charges
hurled against the road proposed
would have included opinions that
the route chosen was too long, that
1t will take too long to build, II 1t
can be built at oil, that It will cost
too much, that 1t is too for inland
to be Of use In aiding the defense Of
the Pacific coast, that II does not
go through an area which will ever
