A. No. Probably he can make something that takes time. but little m-oney. A gift should not be gauged by its cost.

Q. Should a boy be taught to let his sister go through a door first?

Ellen 's Diary

By an Island Farmer's Wife

Jamls was arwsy to tho city yes- Wdly. thouﬂh it was not until this morning that James and I learned of his absence. His parents had shopping to do and he himself wished to visit the various toylands which now that (‘Jhrislunsg is ap- proaching hold many delights for young and older to enjoy. Jamie told me something of his trip by ‘phone today. "You never saw the like of it" he said “there's jes’ everything! There's sleds and trains an’ cars an’ truck; sh’ dolls. An’ in one store there's the biggest stooklm you ever saw." If Jamie missed seeing Santa himself, it was evident that the spirit of Christmas was there. As young country folk sometimes are. Jamie is n-Mhe!‘ bewildered at the strange- ness of ths husoling, bustling city and while there limits his conver- sation to members of the family. Indeed in their company and as he approaches town, the anticipation of his visit oficn changes hLm from a chatty Wm. to an uceedingly quiet one. I cam readily understand this for to come from the peace of a. wuntry farmstead to the noise and apparent confusion of a city, Ls often a bit unsettling. until ons accustomed to the c .Goit was whamayoung lady a cit office presented him with an app e, a fruit favored l?! Jamie, he was so Rclb said "a dummy of o, fellow." His speech re- turned however, when he got back to the familiar lines of the truck. “Me guesses" he remarked tudtinS it a-way in a pocket “me hﬂﬂﬂ time to est this now-we've got to 8st u. toyland flrst." But there was time to enjoy it later and "did you ever" he asked his grandaddy when they ‘talked it all cver this evening "have a ride l.n a nelevst- m? Boy, don't they come down fast?"

DEAR. MISS DIX: I hovo been going with s woman for several years who is a divorcee, with a grown son, and who is many years older than I om. when I first met her she would always insist on knowing what Olll‘ plans were for the next clay. This kept on until ft madc- me feel automatically 011118111811 to see her ever!’ day. B0 l Md no tlIne to ever make any other dates or to see any of my girl friends.

I nave never told her that I love her, but me .. always telling me how much she loves me. She has a habit of asking my friends, or anyono in s position to know, all kinds of qxestions about me —-why I do not marry her, if I call up anyone on the telephone, or go to see other girls, etc.

I know some nice girls who are younger than 1 am and I would like to marry one of them and settle down. as I am well in my mlddlejge now, but I just haven't the backbone to break with this woumn. What would you advise me to do?

Qw-vvv v v v

T. W. ANSWER: 0! course the wonmn will marry you, for her will power is so much greater than yours that you haven't a chance on earth to escape her. She will henpeck the life out of you and wear the pants, and tell you where you get on and getloff. But if you srs so spineless as you appear to be, perhaps what you need is a mother instead of a wife. ’

KNOWS HEB. TECHNIQUE

Certainly the lady is a foxy old campaigner. for the way she con- ducted her courtship of_you shows her to be both crafty and aggres- slvc. By tying you down to a daily date she cut you off from escape. But ft ls an old trick and what I wonder is that you didn't see through it and flee while you had, at least. a chance of making a getaway. However, it is not yet too late for you to escape and save yourself. My advice to you is not to try to make any open break with your cap- lor, but to sneak away and marry the girl you want. After you are safely tied to another she can't get you, but if you dilly-dolly about lt you are lost.

DEAR. DOROTHY DIX: I am 24 years old and the mother of twin daughters. I a-m divorced from their father. I feel that the children need a father's love and understanding. Also, I crave the Mampanlon- ship of a husband.

A 170i’. Who l5 20 years old. has fallen in love with me and asked me to marry him. but I do not know what to do as I think he ls too young to think of marrying anyone. especially one who ha; bean previously married and has two children. I have had" one unhappy marriage and I do not want to make another which might also term- inate in divorce.

JOYCE.

ANSWER: The four years‘ difference in age between you and thc boy are not much on the calendar, but they are a long. long time in experience when the woman has been married and borne children and been divorced. So I think it would be a very hazardous venture for you to marry this boy. He is still just a lad, too young to know what real love is. too young to want to settle down and take on iris shoulders the burdenﬁof a ready made family, certainly too young to know how to deal with another man's children, while you are a mature woman whc'wants security.

As I see it. such a marriage would have snail chance of turning out Well.

We had scarcely settled ourselves wt the table. when James, who manages always to kee informed comm- ing any dlfflc ties about the plaoo. opened the porch door with a wor- ried look. “Ellen" he said "you'll have to come. she's awake and crying.

Failure to reform a husband is no ground for annulling a [nar- risge. a New York State Supreme Oourt justice ruled recently

Explained the justice. To grant an annulment on such a complaint ‘vﬂulcl be the sumo as approving 'rlal marriage. If the wife knew before her man-lag», that her hus- band was in the habit of wander- ing off to unknown parts, there was no deception. unless it ‘was inf-deception on the part of the Wile who let herself think mar- "laxe would reform a husband.
