ELLEN'S DIARY

The snowstorm. forecast. we liiow now. in Monday night's hasy arr is over. Winds Ind weather ave retreated over the hills to the -. from Alderlea. leaving to us the exquisite peace of calm after norm and many new drifts of shite along the yards and fields. we recall again the low dip of sterday's clouds. and the snow lslling betwixt us and the hillsides. Gently at first. and then at times nd-blown to make drifts chase along the fields.

How do we at this farm meet e prospect of a winter storm? i Ith some dismay for our farmers v is true. They are the ones who must contend with its difficulties ind they too must clear away the : rmath of snow from the doors. ind blaze new trails along the ysrds...When it storms now we p a finger on the "pulse" of the power. noting with no uncertain iiuiety the faintest flicker warn- : an interriiptlon. and grateful raised for its continuation.

Today'wl:esr'u Tennyson will have it "The day prepared the daily burdens for the back" was listed the added chore of clearing away some of the latest leavlngs of snow. Mack worked with' the rest but after a while becoming discouraged when faced with so much, he came indoors to shed boots and jacket. He husied him- self then printing with a borrowed pen. a verse of a favorite Christ- mas hymn. He picked it from a book line by line. And unable yet to recognize other than the small- er words but knowing these by heart he at times sang along the syllables as divided. to be sure of his place and progress. Then he was off at a hail from granddaugh- ter to shovel and tunnel and tumble with young ripples of laughter in the sunny drifts about.

And with James we agree "We never saw the life of it-so much snow about!" And forget for the moment that we said the same in the earlier winter of that. which later vanished so completely and fast

Cuiiurels Problem To This Husband Who Is Sell-Made

one MARY IIAWORTH: In a different sense. you might call a Cinderella marriage. My family have for genarations sunosssful, well educated. traveled; and always lead- My own interests are broad. friends many. I take an active

But he never has had the time or inclination for cultural sub- jects - books. art. music. Nor even liar conversation. unless she ut family and business. N or lbs! be interested in sports or bob-

es.

True we have small children who are time-consuniin . and not much money for recrea . But it does seem to me that if a person is intelligently curious about the world and poo le. he will find time to read and earn - or even ab- sorb by listening to others. But Ben goes deaf if the subject does- n't concern business or family. saarr: IN Enos 4

I try to share my interests with him. and to broaden his - only to be told he isn't interested. In fact he seems to have reached a satur- ation int -- or a point of uncon- scious resistancfto my 61101"-I '0 change. polish, push (7) him al- ong. He can't or won't progress. His poor grammar and pronunciat- ion distract me. Even when he does talk he sounds tacky..

The big problem is our choice of friends. Ben is loyal to his old friends and new ones he makes are just dull little people. very ordinary. with no prospects of ever being anything else. My friends us- ually are very wealthy. well trav- eled, interesting; the people with .whom I am most con snial, and it is a mutual congen ty. I don't just single them out and force my- self on them. But Ben has noth- log in common with them and they seem puzzled by him.

Why did I marry him? I was at very low ebb at the time. and I don't know why. I do appreciate his fine qualities of loyalty and steadfastness and his struggle to rise professionally. Am I simply a lsroiled brat and a snob? I am ter-

bly unhap y and feel Ben is too. We rnig t do better to part and seek our separate levels. I am not going to give up and be ordinary, and have to see such people and drift along in comfortable medioc-

rity. S. C !'IND REASONS

DEAR 8. C.: It sheds no light to say that you are s spoiled brat and a snob. To clear up the my- story of the secmin, mesalliance, you ought to look into and under- stand the real reasons why you married Ben. This probably would give you clues to causes of the present worsening maladjustment, and also suggest leads as to how to heal the breach.

You recall you were at low ebb when he claimed you: but you don't know why. you say now. Per- haps you were "coasting into an em- otional depression then. as a re-

And maybe Ben's very simplicity, his blunt resistance to intellectual and cultural complexities. his com fortable acceptance of his natural limitations and "mediocre" taste for "little people" etc. were rest to your soul -- which had been worn to a frazzle by compulsive pursuit of myriad sterile social "interests" considered appropriate to higher levels of worldly aware- ness.
