"It seems to me the most Inn

"In fact, I should have gone
with him when he got this job.
I didn't like the climate down

Did your Easter outfit feel a

sible to wear what you really
wanted to wear because you
still had those extra pounds
you had sworn to yourself you
would get rid of before this
Easter?
Well, if these things hap
pened to you it proves that you
are human. We all procrasti-
nate and we all need the whip
of a deadline in order to ac-
complish what we can, and
also for the assurance that we
can do a certain thing in o
certain length Of time.

BY DIR. PAUL POPENOE

Happily married people are
prone to have little under
standing or sympathy for
those who have been through
marital wrecks. Moreover,
they are likely to share the
popular notion that desertion
and infidelity are the chief
causes Of divorce. This latter
idea Is quite wrong, and there
would be less divorce and less
unhappiness II every couple
could be made to realize that
marital shipwrecks are caused
oftener by the accumulation
of small things than by any
great, big offense. Statistics
show that attitudes are more
deadly than actions, and no
glamorous blond can compete
with q nagging wife as q
homewrecker.
Just for the fun Of starting
an argument. I'll enumerate
three rugged reefs that threat
en- the love-boat:
/. The attitude that IT have
q right to happiness and it's
my partners job to make me
happy-he must do 1t ALL"
2. The attitude that mar
riage ought to be a lifelong
bed of roses and romance with
never a letdown. If it isn't
like that, there's something
the matter with my partner"
8. The attitude that my
partner isn't treating me the
way I want to be treated, so
I'm going to be ornery and
disagreeable. and I'm sure that
will soon bring him to his
senses and make him behave
we'll"
Stated thus bluntly, you
may not recognize these as
common, almost universal
faults-but they are. Yester-
day I had to deal with No. 3,
by way Of illustration. A wom-
an telephoned me: I'm des-
perately in need of help. MY
husband. who is here only on
week ends, told me last time
that he is interested in an
other woman. The worst is
that ! not only have a small
child. but am expecting an
other in three months"
"What did you tell him?"
Nothing: I wanted time to
think. My first idea was to

Fairfax 10 Ask
|$22 Million in
School Bonds
Referendum Bid
Muy Include 20%
Limiting Clause

The Fairfax County School
Board last night recommended a
$22 million bond issue to pay for
a school construction program
during the next five years.
The board will suggest a refer
endum date after joint meet
ing with the Board of County
Supervisors next Tuesday.
The school administration had
asked for approval of a $24.6
million bond issue. A motion by
Mrs. Almorine Crowther that
this figure be accepted was Sec
onded by Harry Leigh, but the
motion never reached vote.
PrOviso Added
The board agreed on the $22
million figure, on a motion by
Floyd Kirby. with the provision
that the bond sales would be lin
Iited to 20 per cent of the total
amount during each fiscal year
If found to be legal, this provi-
sion would be included on the
referendum ballot.
The final vote was unanimous
Mr.. Leigh first cast a negative
vote-stating that he favored
the administrations request
but then changed his ballot.
Earlier, Fred Robinson had
called for harmony" among the
members on the question.
Mr.. Robinson and Richard
Stands said they felt that the
difference between the amount
approved and the amount re-
Iquested may be obtained through
State and Federal grants.
The construction program. as
presented by the administration,
included 49, million for new
elementary schools, SAT- million
for three new high schools. 50
million for a technical school
and $3.8 million for additions to
existing schools.
Petition Required
1t also called for Sic million
for equipment. $1.3 million for
sites, $938.518 for architects fees
$563.11l for improving sites at
new schools. 1851 .629 for improv-
ing sites of existing schools and
I$1.1 million for a contingency
fund.
A move by Robert Darr to
eliminate the technical school
was voted down. Members also
turned down a motion by Mr.
Robinson to set the total figure
at $50 million.
The next move to get referen-
dunn before the voters is to obtain
1000 names on a petition. The
petition would be presented tc
