Our sordid interests imprison us with- in their walls. Only a comrade can grasp by the hand and haul us free. And these human relationships must be created.

H's have known each other for several years, enjoy the same things and think the same way. Life with my husband is miserable; he will not work. is abusive and nn nlcohollc. The man I love also has an unhappy life. His wife neglects the house and the children to rtrn to parties and clubs. All she wants is his support. Should we divorce our respective mates and try for a little happiness. or 'must we continue as we are? MARCIA ANSWER: You have my syrnpnlhy in your difficulties and though I always hesitate to advise a separation. especially where there are children. a drunken. abusive husband is something no wo- man should be expected to endure. However. until you straighten out your own marital problem. better stop seeing the other man. How do you know ihe things you hear nbout his wife are true? Did she ((-11 you or have you seen for yourself? What about his children? When people have youngsters they must often sacrifice for them. Duty has become quite an unpopular word but parents do have a duty to their children. lllurlel Nlslen THINK OF YOUR REPUTATXON His wife might not give him up, in fact she may brand you pub- licly as the "other woman" and ruin your reputation as well as giving your husband a weapon to use ngainst you. Give this man up for at least. six months and try to work your own marriage problem out. DEAR MISS DIX: I asked the state to board my children out two years ago as I was ill and couldn't take care of them. Now we are trying to get them home. but are told we can't. provide n pro- per living for them. They have let two of them come home. but are keeping the other three. I am henrtsick about it and can't. sleep nights. The welfare says they will put them out for adoption. MRS. G. H. ANSWER: Though local laws differ in this matter. I doubt very much if your children can be put out for adoption without your con- sent. See a lawyer to learn your rights in getting the youngsters back. If you have no money. get in' touch with the Legnl Aid Society in your nearest hlg city. You'll find their nddress in the telephone book. Then, by scrupulous care of the two children you hnve with you. convince the authorities of your fitnes as a mother. so they'll have no alternative but to return the other children to you. DEAR MISS DIX: Recently I lost 4' dear friend after many years of friendship. I have been so lonely since and don't seem to find any adequate companionship. If I knew where to meet new people.

I03 TEE FEET 1 write often about use import- ance of the feet, how healthy feet. free from oornl. ' , hammer- toes. fallen arches. mean that a man or woman setting out to put in a useful day can be assured of accomplishing this Purpose. 1 have written before about a United States President whose feet were such a torment that at times he was unable to be his own gen- tlemanly self and was unclvil and rude to those about him. Fortunately, now that it is known that the feet are as im- portant as the head in making a living, the profession of chiropody. sometimes called podometry. has come into its own. At Harvard and other universities a four-year course in ch-lropody is given. the graduates in which are performing a wonderful service to mankind. The general physician. in most cases. is not equipped with the in- strumenu. knowledge and tech- nique to handle these cases of sore. painful feet and is quite will- ing to refer such patients to rt gra- duate chiropodist who always uses antiseptic measures in treating the feet. The chiropodlst works under dif- ficultg because in the great mai- ority of cases, the patient must be on his feet and carry on his work immediately after receiving treat- ment. He does not have an oppor- tunity to rest his feet properly. An idea of the importance of chiropody to health. happiness and production can be seen in the es- tablishment of chlmpody clinics in our general hospitals. Just as there are rheumatism clinics. heart clinics. chest clinics. diabetes clin- ics. so are some hospitals equipped to take care of the feet. In The Canadian Medical Assoc- iation Journal. we read that "fol- lowing the example set two years ago by the Vancouver General Hospital, st. Paul's Hospital in Vancouver has opened a chlropody clinic for use in connection with, the outpatient clinics of the hos- pltal. The members of the chiro- pody profession installed at their own expense the equipment nec- essary for the clinic. If the exper- ience of the clinic at the Vancouver General Hospital is any guide. this clinic will rapidly become one of the busiest and most useful units of the outpatient department under whose control it is oper- ated." Fortunately also. our shoe manu- facturers are turning out better and more comfortably designed shoes. shoes wide enough and long enough to prevent crowding of the feet. The narrow shoes of former years are responsible for most of the cases of crippled fee: found today.
