DEAR MISS DIX: What can a
woman do who is married to man
she can't live with, yet can't leave
him? For years I have been mar
ried to man who has made my
life hell on earth and who often
boasts that he can be as mean
to me as he wishes because I have
no place to go and no way to
make a living if I left him. He
insults me in every way he can.
He treats me like a slave. He does
not permit me to have any women
friends. or talk to any one except
his mother and himself, and has
fits of rage that resemble insanity,
but I have two little children, no
money. and am trained to no pro-
fession. I am young, looking
and fairly intelligent. Must the re-
mainder of my life be spent like
this? DISTRACTED.
Answer: I should say not. No
woman in these days need be en-
slaved unless she is so poor
spirited and cowardly that she
hasn't the courage to fight her
way to freedom.

by which you can support your

DEAR MISS DIX: Won't you
please say something to daugh-
ters who do not want their mother
to look young. I have four mar
ried daughters who think I ought
to wear elderly clothes. I have
white hair that I want to have
dyed, but they say that will be
a disgrace. They also don't think
I should go to parties. I do not
mean anything wrong by dolling
myself up, but I have a jolly dis
position and I think white hair
should not mix with gayety and
I like to go to parties.

mind their own business and you

Temporary School Bldg.
For Emergency To Be
Built BV Dist. No. 9

The trustees of School District
No. 9 have received information
from former Supt. X. W. Bergan
that he will allow h e m to use
Deficiency Indian money for the
construction of temporary class
room on h school grounds to
partially relieve the present Sc
we're crowding in the Browning
schools.
While he states that only So, 900
will be permitted for the purpose,
it is believed that a building can
be constructed that will serve till
more permanent arrangements
can be made. 1t is planned that
the structure will eventually be
used as garage for school buses
after it has served its temporary
purpose as a classroom.
The building will be located on
the south side of t h e new high
school lot facing to the south and
set down to street level so h a t
when it is used in its final pur-
pose buses may enter from the
south, 1t is planned that a build
ing about % by 80 would readily
house three large buses and would
also make suitable sized tenn
porary classroom.
The uses of such schoolroom
are naturally limited as t h e
amount allowed will not permit
the inclusion of any toilet facili-
ties or standard heating. How
ever, in the present emergency
the trustees are adopting "All
small favors thankfully received
attitude and are proceeding with
the structure. 1t is hoped to have
it ready for occupancy in two
weeks if the weather will permit.
This $4,000 is . part of SAL, 00C
which District No. 9 expects tc
receive from the Deficiency ap.
preparation passed last year by
Congress. This money can be
spent only for purposes which
meet Mr.. Bergan's approval. The
