LONG TERM RESULTS FROM OPERATION FOR LOSS OF HEARING

A few years ago I wrote what is failed the fenestration or window operation for otosclerosis (form- ation of spongy bone in inner ear). When sound strikes the outer side of the drum of the car, the drum vibrates three small bones in mid- dle ear which, in turn. strike a window of the inner ear. This win- dow. oval in shape, strikes against the fluid of inner car. then moves the membrane to which the ”hear-

Back came the farmers to their harvesting today. picking up the threads of it laid down at week- end to add a new length of weav- ing to the fabric of their days.

A pretty tapestry it is we are confident though not "until they loom is silent and the shuttles. cease to fly" shall we know much about the pattern our life of days has made.

Therefore it cati- not move sound inward through the fluid to the hearing nerve. The fenestration operation is performed to provide anothcr win- dow in place of the window with

It is in the ciitarrhal form ofl deafness and deafness due to bony deposit against the window tiiatl this operation is particularrly Sllt'-I cessful. It helps about one in six cases of deafness.

DEAR MISS DIX: About three years ago I met and married a naval officer. I was then only a little over 14. though I could have passcd for 17. I left home. not telling my parents where we were going. and H iear ago became the mother of twins. My parents have now discovered where 1 am and vs.-int me to return home. I didn't tell them nf my children because I am afraid they will demand custody of the babies. since I am not yet 18. The twins are with my hus-

band's parents now. T. J.

Your husband is see that Provided. of course. they are well cared for. Neither can I see why your hus- h:ind's people have to care for them now. Since you are old enough ltn produce children, you should be old enough in care for them. or lot least assist those who are caring for them. If you are irresponsible, your eighteenth birthday is not going to work a magical charm and give you any sense. Better tell your parents abourtlie twins and avoid further complications.

I take care of five children. never get out. have no friends and no new clothes. Should I go back to my aunt?

DEAR MISS DIX:

ELLIE

ANSWER: It's difficult. I know. for a' girl your age to have divided loyalties. Since your mother has re-married and raised a new family, naturally you feel like an outsider in her home. Fifteen is a hard age for re-adjustment, loci. and for the next few years I think you would be better off back with your aunt and uncle, es- pecially if your mother is willing for you to go. You owe your 1-91. atfves a great deal in respect and affection for the care they have taken of you; don't forget it when the time comes for you to step out into the world on your own.

Q. when it man and woman are entering a public dining room. and the hcadwaiter is in another part of the room. what should they do?

A. They should stand in the doorway until the headwaiter comes and escoris them to a table. In any dining room where there is a heaclwaiter. one should never make an attempt- to seek one's own table.

Q. Is it necessary that a tele- gram of congratulation received at a wedding be acknowledged?

A. This does not necessitate the note of thanks required by a. gift. but the .nrst time one meets the sender of the telegram, a few lords of appreciation should be express- ed. Q. May candles be used on the dinner table even when they are not to be lighted?

A. Yes: candles are always cor- rect on the dinner or supper table.
