There was distrought civilian

Germans seized. He found it, he
said, in the hands Of an "Ameri-

him that this couldn't be done in

And of course there are presi-

American Army showing them to

use the Army's mail facilities.
But the colonel is polite n d
suave in such cases. 1t grieves
him, he says, that it is not his
affair to write notes or to sign
papers of any kind.

'CHUTES DELIVER
JEEPS AND GUNS

LONDON, Nov. 30 R -Jeeps
and six-pound cannon were drop
ped to British airborne troops in
parachutes soon after D-Day land
ings in France, it was disclosed
tonight.
The jeeps and guns were in
action against the Germans less
than two hours after they left Eng
land in Halifax bombers.
Special crates devised by British
engineers, complete with shock
absorbers prevented damage to the
cargo on landing, though they hit
the ground at 16 miles an hour.
Four 'chutes of 60foot diameter,
or II of 32-foot diameter, were
hooked to the gun or jeep. Each
load weighed almost two tons,
counting the container. Another
attachment kept the crate hori-
zontal during the descent.
Automatic release gear made the
parachutes fall clear of the load
and prevented damage by drag
ging in case Of heavy wind.

S. S.: I have somewhat of a
problem and l am sure that you can
help me. l am married to a Won
derful woman and am quite happy.
About a year ago l met a young
woman and find her quite nice. She
is a widow and for the last three
months we have been going to-
gether and find it quite pleasing to
both of US. We do not claim to be
in love but are very fond of each
other. There is another man in her
life and he wants to marry her but
she cannot decide what to do. Of
course, she knows how l feel about
my wife and does not demand any
thing of me. Do you think there is
any future for US together? l know
this is an unusual question but it
it important to both of US.
Ans: Forbidden fruit is always
the sweetest those who taste
it generally pay a heavy penalty.
Illicit love affairs soon become COM
mon knowledge. For this affair to
become known would wreck your
marriage and blaeken the reputa-
ton of the girl involved. You admit
that you love your wife, stop this
affair before you hurt her. You
also claim your fOndness for this
young woman. In justice to her,
discontinue your relations and
encourage her to make other
friends. If you carry thru the
above plans, you can sleep again
with an easy conscience.
C. B.: l am staying with my
grandmother and she doesn't want
me to go anywhere or do anything
like other girls. l am supposed to
go to counting soon, but she doesn't
want me to. 1 am planning to go
to the country in three weeks and
spend the summer with my mother.
Would I be doing right to go?
Ans: Grandmother is your sole
support, responsible for your be-
haviOr and you must carry out her
wishes. If she gives her consent
for you to go to the country it will
be a grand change for both of you.
Don't go with the idea that you will
be your own boss and do as you
please all summer E. your mother
will exert the same authority that
your grandmother has in the past.
Accounting you will go when you
finish your next years school work.
x. x: l am having a little
trouble with my wife. She claims
that 1 am running with a relative
of hers and it is not true. Her
folks started the rumor. People
tell me if l start with this girl that
they accuse me of, everything
would soon settle. Tell me whether
the girl likes me or not and would
she like to go with me. l haven't
gone with her but since this mess
started, 1 really would like to.
Ans: Putting a foundation of
truth under this rumOr will drop a
bomb into your domestic affairs.
Maintain your innocence instead of

being led astray by idle gossip.
You're flattering yourself consider
ably to think that this girl is in
fatuated with you she, too, is
just a victim of circumstance. To
calm conditions in your home, be
little more devoted to your wife.
A. H. S.: l am 23-years-old and
married. l love my husband but he
seems to think that l am a very
bad girl. At times he calls me all
kinds of indecent names. Usually,
he calls me one of those girls of the
street. This isn't true. My husband
has lived with me three years but
he doesn't seem to know what / will
do or what kind of lady l am. He
flies off the handle if / have com
pany and calls them bad names,
but yet he never has any company
or any friends over. My husband
doesn't seem to think there are any
nice ladies in the world. Please give
me some advice.
Ans: Evidently your husband
experienced some deep deception in
his youth which left a permanent
stigma of distrust on his sub
conscious mind. To help your hus-
band to overcome this complex it
will be necessary for you to assume
that this was the case. To con-
vince him that he is wrong in his
assumption you must live in a quiet
dignifed manner of which he ap-
proves leaving behind you the
frivolous ways of a girl your age.
Gradually lead him into church and
civic work and choose your friends
from these groups. And in this
way he will meet fine, upright peo-
pie and will respect and appreciate
you all the more.

People of all ages need calcium
and few today get a sufficient
amount of it for the greatest of

The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food
the greater the need for more of

and welcome letters from DON
SESSIONS, FRED GREY, EDDIE

Err, RICHARD HALL and they tell
me they used to think this was a
small thing while in training but
since they have been overseas, their
stories are different.
While our boys and girls are
doing their bit abroad, come let
US protect and guide the youth on
the homefront.
To parents and guardians, can
use a little of your cooperation IN
giving our girls and boys guidance.
So naturally in my field, 1 lead
off with club work, sports and
social functions, which will occupy
a good deal of their time and
thoughts. l will meet with any
person who thinks these pleasur-
able activities will not develop
keen minds, promote physical MT
ness and vigorous bodies which
make a good citizen that will serve
our community, state and nation.
Our National game is in the
headline and it's none other than
baseball. Yes, good ole hardbau.
If your boy has never played be-
fore-encourage him to learn the
fundamentals of the game. Take
him to BASEBALL games. If he's one
of the players, attend the game, let
him know you are interested IN
what he is doing, give him full
opportunity. Don't stop at this one
sport activity, suggest he join the
following activities in his youth
Tennis, Softball, Badminton, Gym
nastics, Football, Fencing, Golf,
Swimming and Track. There is no
better proof than the following who
have participated in group work
