eight years and have four
youngsters. We live right
near my mother-in-law and
this causes a lot Of trouble.
My mother-in-law has a
habit Of coming over when
ever she pleases. This is US
ually quite early in the NOR
ming when she goes out shop
ping. At this time Of the day
the house is in a mess and
the kids are yelling and
carrying on all over the
place. 1t is very upsetting to
me to have her at such an
hour, but my husband won't
say anything to her about
1t.
On the other hand, my
mother-in-law has her own
daughter and her children
over to dinner at least once
q week. But she only invites
us for special occasions like
Thanksgiving or Christmas.
The least she can do is to
treat me as she does her
daughter, since she is so init
mate.
Harold NJ don't think
my mother should be made
to feel unwelcome in our
home at any time. She doesn't
criticize my wife or anything
like that. She just likes to
poke her head in and see
that everything is all right.
AS far as my mothers hav-
ing my sister over so often,
1 don't see anything so bad
about that. After all, a
mother and daughter are
closer than a mother and
daughter-in-law. My sister
lives too far for my mother
to see her every day as she
would like to, so she has her
over to dinner once a week.
It's too much for Nom to
feed my sister and her fam
lily and our family as well.
My mother is devoted to
all Of us so I don't like to
act as if we are jealous Of
my sister. ! don't think Har-
riet is being reasonable or
fair about this.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
We wouldn't blame Har-
riet for having some objec-
ton to constant early morn
ing visits from her mother
in-law, but we have an ink
ling that this isn't a real
beef.
When Mother = in law
"pokes her head in to see
that everything is all right"
and offers no criticism Of the
messy house or squalling
children, she is showing a
real motherly concern. Har-
riet would probably not be
upset by it If she didn't feel
that she holds a too-low
status in her mother-in-
laws estimation. She knows
very well that her mother
in-law is experienced enough
as mother and homemaker to
understand the why's and
wherefores Of a bustling
home early in the morning.

None of the scraps landed.
Finally the teams ace pitch

said:

He took aim, let fly and hit

It was vive la France last
night at the Phillips Gallery.
where the young soprano Janet
Southwick conducted a small
audience on a guided tour
through 400 years of French
song,s beginning with a 18th
Century chanson and ending
with one of Francis Poulenc'S
sophisticated spoofs.
Miss Southwick's interesting
list included the Berlioz song
cycle, LES Nuts d'Ete," one Of
the peaks Of the French roper
toire, as well as individual
items by Lully, Gretry. Faure
and DebusSy.
The soprano displayed a big,
dramatic voice Of rather good
quality, but it was not, unfor-
| tunately, very well controlled.
The high register in pianissimo
was very good. indeed, and per-
haps the best moments Of the
recital from a purely vocal
viewpoint came with her sing
ing Of the phrase "Reviens,
reviens, ma bien aimee" in the
Berlioz Absence" This was
fioated with great beauty. light
and iridescent as a soap bubble.
| But such moments were regret
tably far and few between.
When Miss Southwick at
tempted to make full use Of the
potentialities Of her voice. II
took on q wide svibratc which
tended to make her pitch just
a shade unsteady. The lower
register became hooty when
pushed, and in general, o sense
Of strain was all too evident.
As an interpreter Of French
art. the singer apparently found
the more relaxed and restrained
moods of Faure's "Soir" and
Poulenc's "Fleurs" most con-
genial to her. The more ambi-
tious songs were done carefully,
but without any feeling that
there was anything more to
them than appeared on the
surface.
Alice Wightman'S accompani-
ments did not seem too help
full. She managed to get to
most Of the notes at the right
time, but that was about the
extent Of her achievement. and

STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Boy Is Impossible
BY DR.. PETER J. sTElNcRoHN

DEAR DIR. STEINCROHN:
Sometime ago you wrote a
column about children get
ting into trouble, such as
stealing, being unco-operative,
etc. And you also said that
the best time to overcome
such conduct is when a child
is young.
Well, here Is my trouble.
I have a son who Is nine. I
have been. having trouble
with him since he started to
walk. He gets into so much
mischief. It seems as If he
goes to bed thinking UP all
the things he can get into
the next day. There Is no let
up. He can wreck q house In
10 minutes.
When he was old enough
to go to school, he wouldn't
listen to the kindergarten
teachers. They reported he
was very hard to handle. I
had to send him to another
school but he caused as much
trouble there.
He is very unco-operative
and miscfievous and steals
and lies Even If you catch
him, and know he lied, he'll
still deny he lied. II the
teacher donesn't stand direct
ly over him all day he won't
have anything at all on his
paper.
He steals other childrens'
toys and destroys them.
When he fights he bites one
hand and fights with the 9TH
er. If anything is taken away
from him, he will pick up any,
thing in reach and strike an
other child with it.
When he gets older, he says,
he is going to kill me because
I punish him when he does
wrong. Imagine that coming
from an 8-year-old. When he
eats the food Is all over the
table and floor. When we try
to correct him he gives us
those awful looks. He vets his
bed. He has been punished in
all sorts Of ways, not only by
me but by people who deal
with children. Still there's no
improvement.

Circumstances can be
pretty cruel where mistaken
identity is involved, because
so often there is no legal way
to atone for the mistake.
Right now a movie called
II Want to Live" Is making
the rounds. Starring Susan
Hayward as q California
prostitute who winds up in
the gas chamber, the story
is based on a real-life woman
who was convicted by cir
cumstantial evidence and
about whose guilt there
seems to remain considerable
doubt.
This. of course, may be
the supreme example Of q
penalty, undeserved and un-
atoned. exacted through cir
cumstance.

There was the recent case
Of John ]. Egan. the Amer
lean serviceman who was
confined on insanity grounds
for years through erroneous
identification. Subsequently,
when released from q Gov

was looked upon with sus-
picion, he lost jobs and he
spent year after year trying
to get his case reviewed and
corrected by Government
authorities.
Last year the United States
Court of Claims did set the
record straight and awarded
