first birthday present from her five- month-old son, Prince Charles. The present, wrapped in small brown paper parcel, was delivered to Eliza- beth at breakfast in her country home, Windelsham Moor.

LIUKOTOMY OPERATION '19 RELIEVE DEPRESSION 0F SPIRITS

I write frequently about the op- eration lobotomy or leukotouty, used in cases of deep grief and de- pression. It certainly causes s great change in the individuals outlook on life and is of great comfort and relief to the family.

When this operation was first re- ported. all that was hoped for was the relief from the great depress- ion of spirits. The fact that these patients. in losing their depression. often lost their sense of responsi- bility did not seem very knportant. When further reports showed that some of these patients who had undergone operation were able to return home and be of some use to themselves and to the household. it was more than had been ex- peeled.

The thought here is that. while leukotomy relieves grief and de- pression in most cases. restoring the mind and the emotions to nor- mal or nearly to normal depends to a great extent upon the personality

of the individual during his lifetime

and also upon his family and oom- munity surroundings. .

CHAPTER. XVI

It was s. close, sultry night. There were fitfui flashes of heat lightning. Barbara felt. very sorry for herself. She turned out the lights and sat In the dark, her hands covered with cold sweat.

"I don't know what I'll do if I am going to have a baby," she told herself despairingiy.

Had she been married to Mar- tin, how different everything would be, she thought. He would have taken care of her. His wife would not need to keep her job and she knew that Martin expected to have children when he got married. But she was not married to Msrtln and Tony was not. a responsible , 1t was almost two hours before Tony came. He was whistling as he ran up tho stairs. Barbara nearly hated him. "Gone to bed, sugar?” he called out.

"No," said Barbara icily, haven't gone to bed."

"I kept looking around ,for you till somebody ssid you'd gone homo with Martin." he observed.

Barbara could not see his face but his voice was perfectly casual. “Yes." shfacknowledged, "I also occupied Martin's ssst at the show because you forgot to reserve mo one."

Tony grinned. "I want to ex- plain about that. I told them to save the same seat for you. but st the lust mlnuh Gloria's sister-in- isw decided t ocornc down With lpw, so she had to have a place beside him in the first row."

DOROTHY D|x_ SAYS- Starved ‘For Affection

Formerly Atfenflve Husband New‘ Neglects Wife For Child

DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: My husband is a middle-aged mun. 15 years older than I am. Up till now we have alwsysbeen so close to each other and he has treated me as if I were his little girl rather than his wife, but now since the baby came-it is his first child-he gives all of his love and attention to it. and I am being left out in the cold. If I complain to my husband about being neglected, he goes into a rage and tells rne that he adores me and to quit pitying myself, but I am starving for affection from him, for he hardly ever pets me or puts his arms around me.

What shall I do? Any help would be appreciated as I still love my husband" very

ANSWER: My advice to you is to follow your hus- band's admonition to quit pitying yourself. and act like a sensible woman instead of a spoiled child. Above all, try to realize what a ridiculous figure you make of yourself

Grow up

For that is what is at the bottom of your gripe against your hus- band. Because you can't monopolize him, you have worked yourself up

band's affectlons, and you are just as green-eyed over a little toothless, hairless, girl-baby as you would be over any husband-stealer.

HARD FOR WOMAN Perhaps your husband does make too much fuss over the baby. May- be lt is hard for any woman to play second fiddle to her child. But surely there is no more touching sight than that of the joy of the middle- aged man, who has longed for children, when ho holds his first-born in

out of his children. Nor should she think that he loves and admires her less because he is so absorbed in his youngsters. In reality, they are the strongest tie that can bind two human beings together.

We are insanely

ots of girls who work in the same places our boy friends do and we always accuse them of flirting with these girls. We check them up every night they are not with us and this always leads to a fight. We stay angry for about fiile or six days, then make up and everything is fine for a few days. then it starts all over again.

So my earnest advice to you two girls, who are afflicted with the poisonous disease of jealousy, is to put off your marriages until you can cure yourselves of it. Certainly it is folly for you to marry men whom you trust so little that you can check up
