Woman Separated
From Mate Takes On
Status of Divorce

DEAR MISS DIX: A pal OF
mine, q likable young fellow Of
80, is going out with q woman 10
years his senior q married
woman who has not lived with
her husband for three years. I
maintain it is not the correct
thing to do. He can see no harm
in 1t and asks my reasons for
objec4ng. I don't seem to be
able to find words to explain my
aversion. I only know that 1t is
against my way of thinking.
TOMMY.
Answer: If the woman were
living with her husband. 1t would
certainly be very wrong for your
friend to pay her any attentions
which might tend to win her heart
away from her lawful mate and
I'LL him with jealousy.
It is the prejudice that you,
along with all other honorable
and right-thinking people, have
against home-wreckers that
makes you feel that there is
something wrong in your friend
going out with a woman who is
still married. although she does
not live with her husband. And
your sentiments do you credit.
But when a woman has been
separated from her husband for
three years she automatically
takes on the status Of q divorcee
and there is no reason why any
man should not pay her attentions
If he wishes to.
He is in no way responsible for
the break between her and her
husband, and he does nothing to
augment the trouble between
them. But I think. just to keep
the record clean. that II the
woman wishes to go about with
the freedom Of q single woman,
she should get a divorce. That
will prevent her from being the
subject of gossip.
Your friends age. too. should
make q difference in your atti-
tude toward the subject. II he
were q young and inexperienced
boy, you would have reason to
think that 1t was q foolish thing
for him to be running around with
a woman who was still legally
bound to another man, and espe-
cially one who is 10 years older
than he. But a man Of 80 Is old
enough to know his own mind and
certainly nothing that any one
can say is likely to change his
opinion.

Told of Conflicts in
Education of Deaf
D.. Kuku
By Frances Kuhn

Teach a deaf child pnonetlc
sounds and then ask him to read
the word yacht" His immediate
error points out the discrepancy
between the spelling and pronun-
ciation Of English words.
DIR. Leonard M. Elstad, pres
tdent of Gallaudet College, told
members of the Women's Club
OF Chevy Chase yesterday that
the education of the deaf is COM
plicated by an inconsistent Ian
guage. Deaf people must work
with the words we play with. The
many conflicts between the spell
ling of words and their pronun-
citation only creates confusion for
those who are trying to talk or
learn lip reading" he said.
DR.. Elstad described lip reading
Is educated guess work. Plurals
are tremendous problems for the
deaf learning to speak and to un-
derstand the speech of others. he
added. "It's only logical to them" +"
he said, that if the plural OF
goose is geese then other plurals
should be 'meese' for mouse, and
'heese' for house If the plural
Of brother is brethren then
the plural Of mother should be
'methren.'
Combinations of words also
create a problem. Through
phonetic training a pupil is taught
to say awful" and learns its
meaning. He goes through the
same procedure with the word
'.party." Then he "hears" some
one say, "It was an awfully nice
party" The deaf don't have an
easy time under such situations,
DR.. Elstad said dryly.
Spelling on fingers and sign
language are taught in no reg
ular classes for the deaf today,
members Of the club were told.
Instead, deaf students are taught
to read and speak with their lips
alone.
1.-The biggest handicap of the
deaf" DR.. Elstad said, "is that
they have to face a hearing world.
Some are loathe to speak at all
and others never stop speaking
because they are afraid of losing
control of the conversation"
DR.. Elstad pointed out that Gal
laudet College is the first and only
college in the country designed for
the education of the deaf.
Although many of the students
would be able to attend "hear-.
ing college" they would only be
riding the BENCH" the speaker
declared. "At Gallaudet they can
take part in all activities without
the strain of competition" he
added.
After graduation our students
can do anything a hearing person
can do that doesn't require the
use of a telephone" DR.. Elstad
said.
Mrs. Arthur T. Davenport pre-
sided at the meeting and the
speaker was introduced by Mrs.
James McManaway, first vice
president Of the club.

before being ordered to Newport
in 1894, Capt. e. w. Hinton sign
ed a memorandum ordering the
~. s. Training Ship Constella-
ton" to Newport before Deem
Der 81 of that year.
She put out of the Patomac
River and had a mighty narrow
escape in a terrific storm, being
driven ashore with 30 m n
aboard" Following salvage she
was taken in tow for Newport,
having lost two anchors when
cast adrift in Chesapeake Bay.
The Constelltion originally
carried 36 guns and was rated at
1865 tons displacement Her cost
was $313,3l4. Built in Baltimore
when George Washington was
President in 1897, the frigate
was towed to that city for partici-
patton in the Star Spangled Ban
ner Centennial Enroute she put
in at Norfolk where guns were
shipped and spars installed.
This gave the square-rigger the
aspect shc had in the cid days as
a sea-freighter, in 1893 she cover
ed herself with glory when Capt.
Thomas Truxton with 800 sea-
dogs defeated the French frigatc
L'Insurgente in a memorable
four-hour battle off the West
Indies. This was Feb. 9th. In 1902
she had a gallant part in the war
with Tripoli, and struck terror to
the British Navy in the War Of
1912.
Now the Constellation is in the
news again. Baltimore, where
she was built, has filed a claim
for her hulk and an organization
in that city has been established
by $50 former Navy and Coast
Guard men to have the historic
frigate returned to her birthplace
where she was launched l52
years ago. Third of the sister

ship Captain" Edward E.
Bross, a Coast Guard lieutenant
commander in Pacific waters
during the second world war, saws
his men propose the ancient
fighter to be lowed back to Balti-
more and anchored as National
shrine at Fort McHenry in the
harbor there.
Estimates of the cost of re-
storing the Constellation range
up to several millions Of dollars,
Bross said. Post 10000 has begun
a campaign to collect fund but
returns have been meager till
now. (Maybe President Truman
may be influenced to take a
hand because of his love for Key
West and the added fact that the
Constellation once hurried here
on a mercy mission against fear
ed redskin maraudersj
In addition to the desire of
Baltimore to have the frigate
sent home as a museum piece,
Boston, Newport, R. l., and Mar
Gus Hook, Pa. also wish to
establish a permanent anchorage
for her in their waters.
