D. j.: This is what / would like
to know why I am so unhappy?
Is it that l am so disagreeable or
what is the matter in this home.
don't feel like l have a home. Why
did my son take the notion to get
married, knowing my condition as
he does and will l ever get able to
be around like use to?
Ans: Your son taking a wife may
be the means of your house becom-
ing a real home. Your son isn't
happy and neither are you under
present conditions and you should
welcome a change. Before this
change can take place you will have
to assure your son of your approval
of his marriage. Then you must
make his wife aware of the fact
that you aren't losing a son, but
gaining a daughter, for which you
are very proud. You must realize
that a young married couple wants
and should have, their privacy, and
some time to themselves, and if you
will see that they get it, both of
them will show you more attention
and the three of you find more
happiness.

Ans: Communications between
you and your husband are such that
you could discuss this problem with
him. If you did so it would make
him appreciate you for respecting
his opinion and abiding by it. You
are very wise to want to earn some
money during your husbands abb
sence, as it will help him greatly to
establish himself again in civilian
life, if you have a nice NEST egg"
when he returns. But more i'm
portant than money is for him to
retain his confidence and trust in
you. A drastic change while he is
away may have a tendency to upset
him, unless you discuss it with him
beforehand.

POOLE DUKE STARTER

DURHAM, Nov. 7. - up - Big
Jake Poole, Army discharge who
started two games when regulars
were injured, has been promoted to
first string berth and he will fill
All-Southern Ernest Knots shoes
at guard when the Duke Blue Devils
play host to N. c. State here Satur-
day afternoon in a state Southern
conference clash.
Poole, Charlotte boy, earned a
Blue Devil letter in 1912 before 60
ing off to war, and he returned to
school after receiving an honorable
discharge from the Army in Sep
TENDER.
Another Army discharge, Belts
Herlong, of Saluda, S. c., has in.
herited the departed shoes OF
George Clark, tailback who moved
out with Knots after the Georgia
Tech game. Both left as naval
ROTC ensigns. Herlong, a fresh
man who joined the squad three
weeks ago, saw brief action against
Army for his first taste of college
competition.
Coach Eddie Cameron said Poole
and Herlong were good bets to start
against N. C. State. Herlong is re-
ceiving some heated competition
from three other freshmen tail
backs, however. They are Bill
Aumen, Herbert Hips and Roland
Hodges.
Another personnel shift saw Full
back Cliff Haggerty switched back
to his old post at wingback to re-
place the departed Jim Larue, first
relief for Gordon Carver.
Coach Cameron said Fred Pail
adino, who scored both Duke touch
downs against Georgia Tech, would
likely to start at fullback. Palladino,
just out of the Army, netted 10
yards in four tries against Army,
his first game in Blue Devil livery.
Coaches sent the big blue squad
through its stiffest drill of the week
in preparation for the Wolfpack.

CARD OWNER SAYS
I'm LUCKY MAN.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 7-R-Sam
Breadon, who has exploded more
baseball bombshells" than any
other major league owner during
his 26 years of directing the St.
Louis Cardinals, today summarized
his ''David Harurn' career in two
brief sentences:
'I've been a very lucky man. I
hope I can continue to be-
Surprisingly jovial for a man
who has just lost "the best manag-
er in baseball" the Cardinal own
err beamed as he talked of the 1916
season.
Eddie Dyer is fine man with
a splendid record. I'll have no wor-
ries about my manager next year
When Billy (Southworth told me
he wanted to leave, ! didn't know
what I was going to do. was left
high and dry. But we're all set
now.''
Surprising announcements such
as Southworth's release, have been
coming from Breadon's office ever
since he fired Branch Hickey as
manager in 1925 and then set him
up as director of what was to be-
come basebau's first and most ex-
tensive farm system.
At the peak OF his success in
1912, Hickey was let out Of the
Cardinal organization.
Between those Hickey deals,
Breadon hired and fired Rogers
Hornsby although the "Rajah" had
led the club to it's first National
league pennant. Bill McKechnie
was in and out with pennant in
between.
frankie Frisch and his Gas
house Gang" became a baseball
byword and then Frisch later was
fired as manager in mid-season.
Finally, Dizzy Dean and his sore
arm was peddled to the Chicago
Cubs for $185,000 and three play
ers.
'Sone of those deals were good
for US and some weren't" Breadon
recalled.
And David Harum' turned back
to his desk and went to work, no
doubt weighing what he has against
what someone else might want to
offer.

In a move. however, to strength
en- the Packs forward wall, Gathers
shifted Tony Gaeta from the reg
ular right guard post to the right
tackle slot. The move, Feathers
said, would strengthen the right

Julien Rattelade will take over for
Gaeta at the guard post if the move
is made permanent.
