with a housekeeper coming in several times a week

Recently a widow moved into our neighborhooti—the widow of a marine officer. She graduated from the same college I did and is widely traveled, a dipaennh! conversationalist, most attrac- tive. I have been tonsidering marriage, but the attitude of my daughters worries me. They may create scenes or become down- right spiteful. They too like her at first. until | they learned that she is tattooed | violently opposed to her, as they | say a tattooed women is freakish\ and ‘‘nof quite nice.’ ‘Yet they |

jadmit that they've thought noth-}|

ing of the figures on my arms.) DEFENDS DESIGNS

The story is simple: When her} late husband was assigned to! duty in Japan, she went too. | Like many men in the service,| he had been tattooed; and, while | in Japan, he visited one of that country’s most expert tattoo art- ists. His wife became interested and had a massive design in the best native technique done on her

back, from neck to waist. Later, in California, she had otner work} done — one large and several |

small designs.

In my opinion, tattooing is en tirely a matter of individual pref- erence; and when subjects are tastefully chosen and well exe cuted, neither freakish nor de grading. Please tell me what you think. Sincerely, C. P.

WOULD PERMIT

Dear C. P.: This could be a tall tale, I suppose; but to be on the safe side, in case you aren't kid- king, I'll take it ‘‘for real.”

As for what I think of a woman who decorates herself (if that’s the idea) with massive tattoing, I confess I tend to subscribe to your daughters’ feelings: that a real lady wouldn't do such e@ thing. And, that a woman who permits it is branding herself a bit of a freak and ‘not quite nice.”

Admitted that designs tattooed on the torso may be admircd as art in parts of the world, still, no amount of salesmanship can translate this kind of thing into genteel adornment of the civil- ized female. At least, not in the Anglo-Saxon tradition of refine ment. And, as you know, the Anglo-Saxon code of propriety seems to predominate, and to have the last word in our society. ASKANCE REACTION

Thus your duughters’ askance reaction gives you the pitch of what to expect from most peo- ple, when, as and if they learn of the widow’s considerable invest- ment in tattoo artistry. Women in general will raise an eyebrow and decide against her as an oddity. And amongst men there will bea ripple of disrespectful amusement and speculation, com cerning the possible extent and pictorial results of the skin-art- ists’ work.

It was one thing for her to fol- low her late husband's lead in getting tattooed, when she had his escort and approval in the offbeat experiment. But the situ- ation has changed, and not in her favor as a daring innovator,

since his death—which leaves her facing the critics alone, sans the dignity and support of married advocacy. What seems dashing in cherished wifehood may be typed as low-grade vulgarity in the widow, alas.

As for what you ought to do— whether to heed the critice or take a valorous stand on behalf of the woman you love (if you do}—I leave that crucial decision to you, But if tood conipamon- ship is in the cards, for you and

Mrs. Ivan Turner, assisted by Mrs. Earle Rodd and Mrs. Tommy Ro gerson, led a most inspiring wor- skip service on ‘Testing Times.”’ She vividly portrayed how all as individuals need a strong faith in God to help face the many un- expected trials of life. Prayer for adopted mriesionary was offered by Mrs. Orville Turner. During the business period routine busi- ness was discussed and a num- ber of suggested mames were gi- ven to fill the vacant offices of Presbyterial.. All members were urged to attend the Presbyterial to be held in Charlottetown on Ap- ril 25th.

At the close of the meet- ing refreshments were served, af- ter which used nylons and sheets were gathered for Korea.
