ELLEN'S DIARY Above An Old Door Many A Wishbone "Did you make your wish, Galze?" Mack questioned. "Not yet" Gage replied. "I'll have to think for a moment first. Let me see . . . oh yes!" he smil- ed happily, "I know now! 'It was there in my mind all the time." The two cousins had been en- joying thclr Saturday together, sometimes with Granddaughter in attendance, but often drifting off to hoyish interest and doings. Busy as are such small fellows. not into any mischief but taken up with a succession of pastimes of their own. Now flooding a rink sited conveniently near the yards, they had come for a change of mit- tens to further the endeavour in more comfort. And in taking them down from the warming-oven they had discovered the wishbone of a recent roast chicken, Granddaugh- ter had placed there to dry--and forgotten. "That's good!" Mack nodded. "I've made mine. We mustn't mention them because that would it gpoll the wish." Finch crooked a finger about ra- apectlya prongs of the wishbone. DAILY PATTERN Still Placed poised, ready. "It's only fun" Mack volunteer- ed. "It doesn't make any differ- ence if we get our wishes or not. The way I do" he explained, I make one and if it comes true, well. that's fine.

"I can't wait that long" he said. "Mine depends on Daddy and it has to come true tonight." "It must have to do with go- ing to rink" Mack smiled. "Now" Mack said.

Yet it was an audience that came through mixed motives, There were scholars, members of our thriving drama groups, and lovers of Shakespeare from home! where his plays were almost u tliumb-worn as the family Bible. But many, including the young people had undoubtedly come ex- pecting to be bored - or at least much wearied by this, one of the most "talky" of.the plays, and us- ually considered the most "intel- lectual." lPeople do come for oth- er reasons than interest in the oc- casion itself - out of a sense of duty; out of curiosity; for social reasons, etc.) What then was the secret of the wrapt attention on the part of everyone? I do not believe it was due entirely to the rushing. impe- iuous. youthful interpretation of William I-lutt. (Though in his act- ling Hamlet's words were used like swords and Hamlet became a by no means "lntelleuctuui" perfor- mance as was that of older act- ors I have seen) The audience, I think, with the exception of those who had witnessed other per- formances. would have responded just as whole-heartedly to poorer acting.

"I've been more nervous driv- ing a car through Montreal traf- flc than I ever was flying," she says. "If all pilots' wives learned, they'd be much less anxious about their husbands' work."

MA RY HAWORTILI 'Wed In Haste Does Not Pay Dear Mary Haworth: I married a Frenchman hastily, after put- his business, which I anted to be part of. But when the time came to work together, he didn't. want me in it. as he said I didn't fit into the picture. Jacques. I'll call him, had been married before, to an alco- holic. who had been unfaithful to him from the first. Still he keeps in touch with her by telephone and letter (as I have learnedi and tells her all about our personal as well as our business relations, which I resent. Ha buys her gifts with money he takes from the business, which he shouldn't do. as It is a losing thing. He says I don't understand why he keeps in touch with her; he says it's because he feels sorry for her. and the past is his. One month he called her long distance 20 times. and charged it to our business phone. I raised the dickens, because the money I put in is for business, not for his personal calls. I never call any- one long distance, much less charge it to business ""'i"h is wrong. Recently Jacques has said that he doesn't love me; but the fol- lowing day he will say that he does. What should I do? Am I wrong in resenting these calls and letters? C.Y. SHE IS GUILTY Dear C.Y.: Gullibility has been defined as closing one's eyes to evident risks, and blindly hoping that wishful thinking will make everything turn out all right- rlght in the sense of giving us what we are after. Apparently this was your "un- clear" hut desperately grahby ting several thousand dollars Into an involvement with Jacquaa. first by putting money at his disposal. and later. by marrying him hast- ily-which may have been his ex- pedient way of "canceling" his borrower's debt to you. The gist of your present outcry seems to be that Jacques isn't what he ought to be, or what you as business partner and builder of the problem in which you find yourself. Jacques is what he is, the sum of what he always has been- namely. a person without much strength or integrity in his con- duct of life. as his behavior in- dicates. But you threw yourself htadlong into situatons of "trusting" him. which means that you gullibly refused to see him for what he is-because the reality of his character was a di- rect contradiction of what you "needed" and would prefer, if given a choice of life companion. So. your unhappy experience of coping with this cheating oppor- iunist was self-induced: a matter of "kidding" yourself that black was white, more or less-or that black could be whitewashed into "getting by." ACTIONS TELL As for what to do: 1. It isn't Specially formulated for Iusbioal up phlegm-on w luck: honing. what Jacques says. about his lava feelings or lack of same. but. rat- her. his actions day-to-day. that tell you what to expect. And his actions show that he isn't four- square; that you can't build with him in terms - of counting as honest forthright cooperation realtable aelfdlaclpllne in him. 2. Look facts In the face, about yourself and Jacques: about your common sense (if any) as Venus his instability; and about the price of being his wife. as ver- sus the strain of living alone. 3. Then decide if you can stay with him and be adequately self- suatalniny, without self-ply, while putting up with the liability that he is. Or whether you can't stand being cheated. confused and Hm!
