For Tomorrow

FOR. those who are intuitive and '

those with a sense of humor, the augurlas for today are particularly favorable. Without either. you may and yourself worrying needlessly or preoccupied with "troubles" that amount to nothing. It's a good day for following routine schedules. If d nu are employed. listen to instruc- lons carefully and do not deviate rom them. If you are engaged in usiness negotiations, use gentle persuasion - not force .- in PM" ting over your ideas, Intuitive de- ilsions are likely to work out. sur- prisingly well. It is one of those days when your own efforts to promote harmony will largely in- fluence those with whom you have to deal.

For the Birthday

If tomorrow is your birthday. you may look ahead to a year in which. '.lttle by little, your dreams come zloser to realization. liiany bene- tlcical influences prevail in your. horoscope. Uranus favors progress: Saturn. enduring gains. This means that all you accomplish during the next months will bring permanent benefit. Do not be disturbed by minor setbacks. however. and do not rush impulsively into new projects. This is your year to build for the future on a constructive basis - but build slowly.

A child born on this day will be extremely energetic but inclined to 3' start too many things at. one time- finlshing none of them.

Call Me Mom

Daughter-In-Law Hurt Because Mother-In-Lew Is Too Formal

DEAR MISS DIX: Though I have been married six months. my mother-ln-law has never suggested my calling her "Mother." I would like to know whose place it is to mention this. I 'had believed it to be hers. but it has been so long now that I'm beginning to wonder. My parents asked my husband to call them "Moth- er" and "Dad" soon after the wedding, and on the wedding day my father-in-law told me to call him "Dad". My mother-In-law has been very kind to me and i'm sure she likes me.

MRS. S.

ANSWER: Your mother-in-law should have made the suggestion at the same time the rest of the family did. I-ler failure to do so doubtless was due to the emotional strain-however slight-that usuully exists between a woman and her newly acquircd (laughter-in-law. Since the matter has as- sumed embarrassing proportions, lo you at least. it should he settled as soon as possible. Why not

HUSBAND 10 AND MOODY

DEAR MISS DIX: I am fl woman of 50; my husband is '70. l'Vc have been married 15 years. I don't know that having married an older man has made me ll wiser woman. I knew my husband very well ulicn we were niarrlerl and I was sure things would turn out well for us. What a sad znvzikcning I have experienced! He is very domineering. not a hit cooperative and doesn't appreciate a thing I (I0 in the house. I know he works hard and is tired at night, but is that a rcuson for him lobe so moody?

D. W.

ANSWER: It's too bad, but there's no alchemy that gives a woman wisdom just becuiisc SllP chooses a husband older than her. self. In fact, many people would insist thatlsuch a marriage niarks her as an unwise woman. Your husband was 55 when you were mar- ricd to liim7zm age at which most men are quite well set in their dispositions. Since you lfrl('il' him well. you surely must have been acquainted with his temperament. Al 70, he most certainly is past reform. Since he is If hard worker and a good provider. you had hel- lcr learn to apprerlrile your blessings instead of expecting flexible be- havior in it man old enough to be your father. -

DOROTHY

ANSWER: I guess there's a lot of advice a child-hrlde could use. Fifteen is no age to assume the tremendous responsibility of matri- mony, but since you have done it. Dorothy. you Just learn how best to discharge the obligations you have acquired: Do you remember what you promised when you were married? If not. borrow a prayer book and read over lllf' marriage service. You'll learn that you prom- ised in love. honor and cherish your husband. You will dishonor both him and yourself by going out nith nnnlliei: man. so please-donit do it. You love the man you have. and he loies you. Don't let any childish notions come between you.

DEAR MISS DIX: I am 17.-and interested in a serviceman who is 20. Recently he asked my girl friend for a date and she refused. because she didnt want to hurt. me. Later, under a pretense, he got her to double date with him and his buddy. She called me up to tell me about it. Should I forget him or give him another chance? And should I get. mad at my girl friend?

JEAN ANSWER: You are taking the boy too seriously. Since he wants to dale other girls. you go ahead nnd date other boys. Obviously,

this one has no intention of going steady. Your girl friend certainly doesn't. deserve your anger.

DEAR MISS DIX: I have become quite interested in a boy in my office who recently married. We are both 18. I go steady with a boy in service, but I find more and more pleasure in being with the married one., Am I just being silly?

'1'. R.

ANSWER: Your behavior is exceeding the bounds of stupidity; It's becoming downright dangerous. You are letting yourself be car- ried away on a wave of sentimentality that will not remain static. Unless completely curbed at once. your feelings for the boy will be- come progressive to the point where you will endanger your own romance. as well as his marriage. If you can't control your emotions. get a new Job.

IN HOME LIGHTING. ILLUMIN-' ATION NEEDED. NOT DEC- ORATIVE EFFECTS

In these days when plenty of light is available for all necessary and unnecessary purposes, it would seem that there is little wetieed to learn about lighting the home. However. some simple but valuable advice is given by Edward K. Kray- bill. of the Duke University elec- trical engineering department, in I the Bureau of Public Information. l

"Home planners too often make a backward approach to the prob- lem of good lighting. Architects and interior decorators frequently think of good lighting in terms of decorative effects rather than good illumination."

Thus instead of considering the decorative effect first. they should work out the details of appropriate decoration after they have obtained the utmost in good illumination

"Cutting out extreme contrasts of light and darkness is the key- note of good illumination. Eyestrain is often brought on by improper balance of lighting."
