Marriage To Older Woman

Congeniality More lmporiani Than Chronological Age

lovelzfihglaDvsROTiliY 21X: A young man in my office has fallen in their m!“ ‘onganhn t e same office. They are both “tell-educated and ma“ how 9f i. 0 professionally and otherwise, are similar. The wo-

, eyer, is about twelve years the man's senior. Can there to lasting happiness ln such a match? Why is it considered a perfect. b! hilfmfll thing for a man to be twenty or even thirty years older than the girl but n terrible thing for e woman to marry a man younger than herself?

F.K.D.

ANSWER: I think that, generally speaking, though there are exceptions even to this rule, twenty-five or thirty ‘years is too much difference between a husband and wife, no matter which is the elder. Because that puts them in different generations and each generation has its own point of view, its habits and traditions, which make a gulf between the two that is almost impossible to span.

And that is particularly true of this present age in which during the inst, even twenty, years the whole relationship of the sexes, the eon- ventions, mode of dress, trend of thought and opinion has entirely alter- vd. so that many things which are perfectly right and natural (or the younger generation to do would be very shocking to the older generation.

As for the chances of happiness of a couple in which the wife is twelve years older, or even more, that depends on the age of the man.

Last week I rounded up a 15- year-old boy who knows a lot about planes for he's been building them for the past 5 years.—Not real planes of course, but tiny models that actually fly and that can give any lad many hours of pleasure. The Youth I am about to discuss lives at 24 Longworth Ave, Char- lottetown, and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Leonard. That this 1nd loves his hobby, goes without saying. The mere sight of a plane gives him a thrill, and sends his thoughts flying way up there in the clouds where some day he hopes to be able to look down upon this old world. According to Damien. the materi- als to build a model plane can be purchased for about 75c, which in-~ cludes the rubber motor. The young hobbyist has a working kit which consists of pins, pliers, sharp knife, razor blades, balsa wood and of course, sandpaper, both course and fine. O O O Well, now that we have our tnols of the trade where we can lay hands nn them, let's learn some- thing about how model airplanes are constructed by this Island hobbyist. "Once you've built your first plane", Damien informed mo, "the work becomes easier. Now I can build any model that comes in a kit." "Where is your workshop?" I questioned the young hobbyist. "Or does your mother permit you to use the kitchen for your workshop?" "I have a den of my own." answered the boy. "But my parents don't object to me using the kitchen table now and then, if I don't put the place in foo much of a mess. Of course, I have to sort of "clean up" after working hours because there's always baslnm shavings and other odds and ends lying about." "Now, Damien," I said, picking up a plane recently finished by the young builder, "Just tell me in your own words how you go about the task if making n model plane.“ He ooked up into my face for a moment, hesitated, and then got warmed up to the subject. "I start making the fuselage first, putting the strips over the

pins. Next comes the uprights be- tween the longerons. These nre cemented into place as you see." Young Leonard then went on ex-

which the patient is given an electric shock lasting a fraction of a second which not only gives bet- ter results but is not as much fear- ed by the patient as is insulin shock and metrazol shock. In elec- tric shock the patient has no memory of the shock, does not have to have injections into vein, and is never conscious of what is happening to him. In the natural entliuiasm of psychiatrists as to the great value oi’ electric shock, Drs. Nathan Savitsky and William Karliner, New York City, in “Medical Clinics of North America", remind physi- cians that before the discovery of the shock treatment, more than half the patients in mental insti- utions were cured by the regular intitution methods. They suggest, therefore, that psychiatrists make allowances for the many patients who would get better without shock treatment and not put peti- ents through shock if my can be cured by other metli . In s series of 200 cases, these physi- clans gave shock treatment in their office to 190 (95 per cent). One great advantage of giving patients electric shock treatments in the physician's office is that the patient and his family are quite willing to go to the physi- cian's office where they would not go to a mental institution which

In previous articles on shook treatment it was stated that where the patient or his family have a "say" in the kind of slwck. they prefer, the great majority prefer electroshock treatments. ls the above series, ninety-six (49 pei omit) recovered with five or fewsf treatments. Each of the 200 oesd were given between 8 and 9 mat: ments. One case recovered site one electroshock treatment.
