The threads of the farm-work, rested of late were picked up to- day, though a quiet not unlike that which obtained in our young Sabbaths, still rested about. But the farming continued. The men gave dosages of mineral to their piglets; they helped a late lambkin new-come in the orch- ard to its first nursing. With a query as to “How many days were in April, Ellen? Of course, 30" they fixed ‘dates to come in the pig'geI*y- ,

A first egg was chipped this evening when for a moment we lifted our sitting hen from her nest. How warm against a cheek, and alive it was with the mir- acle of birth it contained.
To the nest in the rosebush, the neat goldfinch trusts these days her treasures of firstdaid eggs. The children remove the screen from the window in the bedroom above to look down on them.

BERNADETTE MORRISSEY
ENGAGEMENT
Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Morris- sey, Newton Cross, wish to an- nounce the engagement of their
oldest daughter Bernadette Marie MARY HA‘{V2_R_T_i__-I Selfish Mole -
Is Not Happy -
Dear Mary?!-laworth: My hus- band, I'll call him Dave, and I
for two years and have a new baby. We are both 20.
You may call me a possessive wife because I would just as soon spend every minute with my bus- band. He operates a service sta- tion wi-tih his iialther and works from 6 a.m. to anywhere from 6 to 10 p.m. six days a week, and usually is so tired when he comes home that he goes to bed quite early. ‘
I spend very little time with him ( in my estimation); yet with Spring here, he wants to go fishing on Sundays—w:ithout me. He goes to National Guard meet- ings Tuesday nights.
There is a new employe at the filling station who is causing trouble for us. John, I’ll call him, has a wife and three .small chil- dren, but he is the kind of man who wants everyone to know he is‘ head of his family. What he wants to do, he does; and his wife has nothing to say about it.
USE To CONSULT HER.
Dave always has consulted me before doing anything. Generally. Ivlet him; but I like him to be with me at least every other Sun-

day. I don't think that is too much to ask. Well,"anyway. John has been putting ideas into Dave’: head, that he shouldn’t let me try to run his life; that he should do as he pleases. He wants Dave to do things with him —for instance, go away fishing for a weekend just the two of them.
Dave is beginning to think John is righrt and is starting to tell me of things he is going to do-and I don’t like it, that’s too bad. To me, that isn't marriage. I would appreciate your comment. I can- not say anything to John, be- cause he would ‘tell Dave and
be saved from John‘: influence? J.D.ea.1' J.P.: It is my impression that Dave is suffering from emo- tional shock, or unconscious an- xiety since becoming a father. All of a sudden he feels fenced. in. tied down, by the serious busin-es of parenthood-of providing for the child, sharing your increased worries and cares, and also shar- ing his time, -activities, etc., with you, who look to him increasingly h iness.
fimTh11:mDave is in a mood to kick his heels and run loose on his holidays, in neurotiotyrpe .flight from reality; and also to reasure himself that he still is an individ- ual, that his freedom of choice isn't lost forever.
lit just happens that John is at Dave’s elbow in this crisis, egg- ing him on to jump W91‘ the traces—and become a loner, rat- her than a husband. Because mis- ery loves company and John isn't happy—being on the wrong track in life-—he is mine to Induce have to follow his example: of talking big to cover_a sense of failure, .; guilty conscience, and a habit of ugly disloyalty to his wife.’
ADVISES SEE DANGER
John is trying to get Dave to go slack at the wheel, in the role of family man and to coast back down hill, into the ditch-«ms John has done—-on the road that points to maturity. My advice to Dave is to see the danger in payiflg at tention to such dishonest pressure —and stay on the road that leads to real manhood.
‘As you so well say. John's ar- rogant individualist philosophy is foreign -to marriage. The sub- stance of marriage is sacrifice-—
resources to the partner. When man and wife are generous with one another, in this pattern of sharing, their lives are enriched far beyond anything that either might attain -through selfish, self- serving pursuit of “single” pleas- ure.

Could you am.‘ with Dave's parents or-you“ to take charge of the baby and av you time off together? ° To refute the i g n o 1- 3 John's preachments, read me ander lVlagoun’s book “Love Marriage" (Harpers); or wt field H ope's “Life Togethgz (Sheed and Ward).
