There is nothing you can

AS for the husband, I'd put

he has ceased to be a man.

DEAR ABBY: I can SYM

THE DETAILS

IhE DE AILS
Mrs. J. LII am trying to
help my daughter Nancy, who
lost her husband in an acci-
dent several months ago.
Nancy Is 90 and has three
children. the youngest 4.
Finances are not a serious

THE GOLDEN YEARS
He Turned q Home
Into S146 q Month

my husband died, and during
that time all my pension and
benefit payments have been
held up while impersonal,
officious people in big Offices
decide what I am to get.
Everybody tells me they
are very sorry. That's very
nice because their sympathy
pays of the outlandish med
ical bills incurred in my hus-
bands final illness, and the
1884 it took to bury him.
Also you can eat it :"
Comment: Husbands who
don't educate their wives in
the complexities of dying, or
who fail to put their affairs
in shape before they go, are
cruel.

"A relative of mine recent
ly retired after 80 years with
one Of the country's leading
manufacturers of shotguns.
Mostly he was in sales work.
He took $1,000 out of saw
ings. borrowed a little more
from a life insurance policy,
and set up a fine bird dog
kennel in Alabama. He's
making money"
$50
Men who are retiring with
q few thousand dollars in
savings seem to think they
ought to put the money in
some smart investment. In
fact they feel they're missing
out on something If they
don't, because around every
corner now they hear about
somebody making a killing.
The truth of the matter
Is that the man who keeps
his money in a bank or saw
ings and loan association
and gets 3 per cent on its
well of. Say he has $4,000.
That yields $500 a year. Any
safe investment that pays
more than S4OO is hard to
come by. That's a difference
OF about So a month and
not enough for a gamble. II
he had 100000 it'd be an
other story.
And most Of the imitation
scare-that warns a man to
get his money out Of saw
ings-is not pertinent. A man
at IS can be hurt by imitation
in the next 10 years. But
unless imitation gets a lot
wilder, a mans needs will de-
crease just about enough
each year to keep pace"
Comment: That makes
sense.
Sixteen queries have come
in this week from people ask
ing If they had enough money
to retire on. The basic mini
mum remains about 5000 a
month for a couple accus
toned to a comfortable life.

problem because her husband
was heavily insured and
there will be compensation
from the accident. In spite
Of this. I feel that Nancy
should 90 out to work. She
disagrees.
My reason is that her
nerves have been shattered
by this tragedy and she needs
to go out among people.
When she is alone in the
house with her little girl she
broods and cries. When the
older ones come from school,
she constantly yells at them.
I would help by taking care
Of the children if Nancy
would go to work.
Nancy K.-Mother means
well, but it Just gets my
goat when she keeps telling
me to look for a job. I look
like a mess and feel worse. I
doubt that I could get a Job.
I don't think I would even be
able to type anymore.
know I haven't been
right with the children lately.
but I think it's better for
them to have some kind Of
mother than none at all.
After all. the kids have been
through quite a shock. Won't
it be worse If their mother
isn't around either?
l know Mother thinks the
minute I get among people
I'll start going out and dat
ing. It's the last thing ! want.
My children are everything
to me.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
1t is a mistake to try to
help anyone suffering from
the first shock Of a terrible
loss by offering more than
sympathy and companion
ship.
Right now. the only thing
that seems real to Nancy is
her responsibility as a mother.
Gradually she will recognize
that this responsibility ex-
tends beyond the limits of
her being present at all times.
1t also involves keeping her
self as happy as possible so
she'll be in the right frame
Of mind to manage her bur-
denS.
However, Nancy should be
encouraged to get out of the
house occasionally. A job is
much too ambitious at this
stage. She may also find it a
strain being with friends, who
will naturally laugh and joke
and bring their husbands into
the activities. Perhaps she
should take a typing course
to prepare herself for some
future job. She might also
try taking up new skill like
practical nursing.
Certainly Nancy can do
without hints about possible
future dating. This may come
in good time, but Mrs. J. L.
is aggravating her daughters
wounds by bringing it up
now.
