Child Planning the garden for the new year is a great joy to all who love gtirdtns and there is more time in this month to do the plan- ning. Many grand books on gar- deningiarc in our libraries and it is possible to have them for the asking. Then the flower catalogue will come in a few weeks and we will know that Spring can not be far away. The last few weeks the freezing and thawing has been hard on gardens, Plants may be heaved otit of the ground. I have been gathering more spruce bouglis to keep the frost in the lower borders. Of course the very hardy plants \\'lll be all right even in this weather. It is well to look over the pot- ted bulbs and water them if they need moisture. the early daffodils may be brought to the light in a week or so. Tulips need a longer period of growth in the darkness.

Her curiosity has no bounds. I have no privacy whatever, iis she stioops on everything I do. She listens in if I talk over the telephone. If I lay my purse down and leave it. upon my return Sho has turned it inside out. If I um not; home at the minute, I have to go through an ordeal of questioning until I ex- plain every detail of why I was detained. I have tried tn vain to cure my mother of her lnqutsltiveness nnd now it has got on my nerves so that. it. is affecting my health and my ability to work, I am 30 years old nnl minke enough money to keep myself and live elsewhere, but not enough to support myself and help the family lf I leave home. My parents need my help. So what can I do? ‘ C. '1‘. L. of course, 1f your parents were self-sustaining, the ANSWER: ' wise thing for you to do would be to leave home, since no chtlds duty to a parent Involves having her life ruined by the vulgar curiosity of her mother. But the old people are dependent upon your earnings. You cannot leave them to starve even to save yourself, so about the only recourse left you is to try to bluff your mother into silence by holding the threat over her that unless she leaves you and your af- fairs alone, you will set up your own home where you can live in peace. WONT ADMIT FAULT! Perhaps that plan would work. The chancen are, however, that it wouldn't, for I have yet to sec a mother who corrected any of her faults, or indeed who ever admitted she had a fault where her children were moncerned. She always justifies her vices and extola them Into virtues. When It comes to prying into hei- chlldrenh affairs, it lsrft in- decent curiosity which anlmates her, Oh, no. It is her desire to protect her darlings and she counts it unto herself for righteousness. And she weeps at; the ingratitude of a child who has so little sense of filial duty thnt it objects to havint: its privacy invaded. Probably mothers‘ curiosity has driven more children away from home than any other half-dozen things in the world. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I have a daughter 21 years old who is very much in love with a young miin 26. He has never worked in his life and is as spoiled as n baby and has no wuy in the world to sup- port a family, yet my daughter insists on marrying him. She has a small job that doesn't pay very ucll. I disapprove of this marriage just because I don't see how they can llve. My daughter snys the young mun has promised her that he will endeavor to get work as soon as they are mnrrletl. We are not nhle to support them. What do you think of this marriage? MOTHER ANSWER: I think a marriage such ns this ts worse than an ex- hibition of sheer insanity on the port, of the contracting parties, It is an outrage against parents and a hold-up of them that they have no right to commit. Children are always asserting that their mothers and fnthcfs have no right. to interfere with their marriages, This may ht; ue 1g m] flfltl dflllzhter are nhle. to support their wlfo or husband, b t certainly Continued on page '3 MR8.
