musical compositions to the Enterprise. Med

by several governments, patriotic organiza-
tons and maritime groups with no thought
of any possible return they would bring.

Problems Today
Women Pompers Grown Children

beloved children are aware Of herl
great fault. she should take in-I
mediate steps to amend it.
This attitude is wrong from so
many angles. It's most unfair to-
a conscientious husband who has
worked. and is working, hard to
give his family the best In life:
it sets q very bad example in hui
man relationships for the chill
dren, and it establishes a barrier
between husband and wife that
may still remain when they enter
the last phase of their life to-
gether-th days Of sunset when
the children have left the family
hearth and the old folks are left
alone:
DEAR MISS NISSEN: My son,
who is In service. is in love with a
divorced woman who has a small
baby. Her family isn't very sympa-
thetic to her. and she has had q
difficult time with them as well
as her husband. She feels UNI
wanted by everyone, and so. I
guess, was glad to turn to my son
for affection. He says he won't
marry her in a hurry, but when
he does make up his mind. he'll do
what he wants with or without
our blessing.

son; even in the midst Of worry

Your son has O. mind Of his own
and will apparently do what he
likes. There is nothing you can
do to stop him. Talking rarely

and understanding, which I am
sure you can adequately supply.
Best of luck to you all.
