DEAR ABBY: Will you

ment to women to remain
true to their husbands even
though they are strongly at
tracted to someone else? Our
marriage lost its sparkle, and
just when our differences
seemed insurmountable, a
tall, dark, charming man
walked into my life. He was
everything my husband was
not. Refined, exciting and
talented. We seemed made for
each other.
Knowing that two families
were involved Che was mar

were at stake, I put up the
struggle of my life. I told
no one, fighting this feeling
alone. I leaned on God. His
strength was sufficient, for I

of a. debilitating struggle I
was able to tear this mans
face out of my heart. I now
think of him as a wonderful
friend, but not for me.

it was a sty, and it would

the bump. Will I have it all

Therefore. Miss W., you will

Regarding the diagnosis Of
your condition, you will re-

But I try, on occasion, to
make an educated guess and

your physician.
If it is what I suspect,
you have developed a chala-

serious, 1t can be bother

THE DETAILS

he OE 1AALS
Louise F.-Such a wonder
full son as Joey deserves
whatever chance I can give
him for a good education.
Even though my own life is
a mess. I'll work my fingers
to the bone to give Joey, and
now the newborn one, a real
start.
He's Is and his father is
dead. My present husband
deserted me when I became
pregnant a year ago. He's
out West, living with another
woman. Anyway, during my
pregnancy I held a job clean
ing out rooms in a settle
ment-house until joey took
my place by getting up at 4
am. and working until it was
time for school.
His teachers think a lot of
him too. They've recon-
mended him for the Higher
Horizons" program next
term.
Mrs. w. BIN Louise's
aunt. I know the whole sorry
story but I live too far away
to help her. It's true joey is
a fine boy, but he certainly
isn't college material and, in
her desperate circumstances,
Louise shouldn't be making
promises she can't possibly
keep.
I used to take care of Joey
for her while she held a full
time job-before her mar
riage to this scamp. Joey's
teacher told me he had a low
10. But Louise won't believe
it.
Soon he'll be old enough
to make some real money,
so Louise won't have to work
so hard. Now she leaves her
infant daughter with the
janitor'S wife, to hold on to
that cleaning job. She makes
joey stick to his books, in
stead of a good part-time
job.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Leaving to the welfare
authorities their unpleasant
task of untangling Louise'S
marital and dependency prob
lens. we hail her for her
faith in joey and her high
hopes for his progress.
While her aunt's advice is
practical and expedient, it
is defeatist and crushing for
this optimistic mother. We
trust that the social agency
will help her find other ways
of navigating. than by torpe-
doing Joey's education.
