She is not happy with her husband. They have two child- ren. "Her husband goes out a lot. but doesn't take her with him. He does not work, neither does she, They dont get along at all.

"A husband wito tells his wife that, can't love her any too well. She knows I am writing you. so please try to help us. MIKE AND BROWN EYES" * I well understand your unhap- * piness in seeing an attractive * young woman so unhappy with a * husband who publicly insults her. * You are young yourself. and * idealistic: Her plight arouses all * your chivalry. You picture her as * a forlorn maiden in the clutches * of a modern villain, a rogue who * neglects and mistreats her, who * boasts about his congoests. You * believe her heart is breaking un- * der his recklessness, And you see * yourself as the knight sans re- * proche who will rescue her from * this mnisery, and carry her away * on his charger to an eternal * dream of happiness. * How different can be the real- * ityl If by some miracle these two * could he divorced and you were * to marry her, you would find * yourself chained to a woman who * could not manage one husband, and burdened with the tesponsi- * bility of two children that belong * to another roan -children whom * you neither know well nor under- * stand, yet to whom you would * have to be a good and understand- * ing father. * Remember. too, that this man's * boasting may be all talk. A bus- * band does not usually use such * language to his wife in public 1f * he is really serious about separat- * ing. Many a weak male gives * himself away by his big words. * Keep yourself out of ,this. It * is too bad you have, evidently, * disclosed your feelings to this * wife: t . i_ it to .o, * nor had she to listen, Don't see * her alone; if they come again to * your home, leave. You must * have no influence•ot5 her flow. If * she intends divorcing her hus- *' band, let it be because she has * good reason to -not because she * thinks site is in love with another * man. * Keep yourself busy with nice " girls who are single. There are * plenty 'of them about to amuse * you, and, take your mind off as * married woman. At your age, it * is wise to realize that you will * probably be in love with more * girls than one before you are * settled enough to marry any- * body. 4: * "Dear Anne Hirst: Two years ago I met a man through business. He has a wife and two children. I fell in love the first time I saw him. I thought he and his wife were an ideal couple - but a. year ago she told me they had been separated for three months. They both claim no love exists between them, and no ties, except financial. "Finally he fell in love with tae. I don't think either of us has ever known what it means to love be- fore! We are both 40. I was brought up in a Christian home, and I want to do what is right and best for all of us. He told his wife he was madly in love with me, but she will never give him a divorce for fear it will ruin her prestige. "We both hold responsible posi- tions. I was offered a good job in another town, but when I went to be interviewed I felt the world had come to an end. If I could get a job in a certain field I would find comfort there, and as long as I knew he was getting along all right I could stand to stay away. "I want my life to mean some- thing. I certainly don't want to hurt anyone. Please advise Inc. THE OTHER WOMAN". DON'T HURT YOURSELF * In your anxiety not to hurt * others, don't overlook hurting * yourself. * So long as you work with this * man, or stay where you can see * each other often, your love will * flourish. Since it cannot be ful- * filled, it can only grow more and * more tragic. You will live in in- * creasing resentment which might * readily become a bitterness which * could consume you. 4 Be realistic. * Take yourself away from this * daily association. Find the sort- * of work you feel yourself fitted * for (in another city, if you can) * and bury yourself in it. * You need new faces, new ideas, * new surroundings. Nothing else * will help you so much. Among * them, you will be able to resign * yourself to the inevitable, and at * the same time develop fresh int- * erests and ambitions that will help * matte your life the useful life you * want it to be, "meaning some- thing" to others as well as your- * self. * You have courage, and a will * which will not be denied. Once * you make the break, you will * wonder why you hesitated so * long. * You and this man can keep in * touch frequently enough to be * assured, of each other's well be- * ing. Then you will find peace, at * least -which you can never know * so long as you are together. * * _ •-w1'netL_. iptation conies, run away. We never can know how strong we will be in the face of it, so why court tragedy? Anne Hirst will help you find the courage you need. Write her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St., New Toronto, Ont. EHE SPIRITUALIST told the widow that the message from her husband asked for cigarettes. "Where shall I send them?"' she inquired. "Well," remarked the spiritualist, "you notice he didn't ask you for any matches," -Guthrie Center Times. Ca':' SSW( 'RD PUZZLE ACROSS 5. Trouble ' 1. Word et 5..Statioaere pn et 7. Poplar • S.

Edmund T. Mason, a very keen amateur archaeologist who is archaeological adviser to the heal Care Diving Group, gave a BBC radio talk abgut this wonderful cave and described the work done there recently by divers. With other spe- cialists they carried out the first archaeological work to be done on the bed of a subterranean river. They worked at night when all visitor's had gone and took their equipment into the cave and down the long flight of concrete steps known as Hell's Ladder; at the foot of another fan -shaped flight led them to the first great chamber. They switched on the lights, which 'showed the great stalagmite shaped like a face which is called the Old Witch of Wookey. A path at the side of the cd\'e leads from chamber to chamber and underwater lights showed the entrance to the sub- . merged arches through which the river flows from one 'chanlyer - to another. Assistaiiis` dragged the -skintrbltt- rubber suits over the divers, their glass face pieces were screwed in place, their oxygen turned on and down they went. They descended in the first chamber and carne out in the third, and while they were working the lights in the cave were turned off so that the e men on ,the path could see the blue light the divers carried• showing through the water as they surfaced. The divers brought up various muddy objects which were placed in a sandbox and packed around with a mixture of sand and sawdust to be handled with infinite care. Spots where the objects were found were marked on the chart of the river. Diving operations sometimes went on till fou' in the morning, and then, after a few hours sleep, the investi- gators met to discuss the results of the operations. For the archaeologi- cal team the work was by no means complete for the material found has to be preserved, labelled, recorded and then submitted to experts, who report on the approximate age at death, racial characteristics, and many other things, From the animal bones the zoologist can tell what food the people ate and which ani- ' males they domesticate. The pottery indicates the period to which they belonged.

"Is there any connection?" said 3fr. Mason, "be- tween these skeletons and the witch stalagmite or in the steps of un- known origin carved in the floor leading to the river. Again thcre'is the possibility that the burials were made in some dry part of the cave and were subsequently washed into the river by flood waters or even placed in the river bed at some time when it was dry. On the other hand, did some later people throw the bones into the river while tidying up the cave for their own occupa- tion?" Alt this has yet to be discovered. The divers think they have cleared the river bed, but much more ma- terial may Ile hidden in its muddy banks. They are also anxious to push on upstream to discover yet more hidden chambers.

It is .shocking to dis- cover how many parents omit books in the family budget. Children will read good literature, if it is put withiti reach. As a matter of fact, most normal children will get a reasonably balanced literary diet if it is made available to them. Maybe a few more libraries more easily accessible to more children, could be an answer, Certainly, if parents buy a few good books and leave them where children can stumble on them, there will be some- thing to take the place' of the trash Rids have been -finding, It must not be forgotten, either, that a large part of "funny book" sales are to adults, not to children. If, good books are provided, and youngsters still get an overdose of crime, sex, and violence, that will be the time to talk about swinging the ex of censorship.

Alarm Wrist Watch A discovery that will be of great benefit to a large uunher of people has been Houle because 'a watch- maker heard a cricket chirruping as he wathed in the mountains of 5wialoerhtnd. 11 sut•h a tiny insect could make a sound clearly audible Irons 1 distatter of a dozen yards, wiry, he thought, could he not make an alarm bell that ryas small enough to go in a wrist watch but yet noisy enough to wake a sleeper,' The upshot of his• mountain walk was au alarm mechanism that works on the principle of the cricket's chir- rup. The cricket makes his distinct and penetrating noise by rubbing the file -like edge of one wing against the other. The watch maker pro- duced the same effect by setting a light hammer to vigrate against a thin metal diaphragm, The result is that now, in a case no bigger than that containing an ordinary wrist watch, Iles both the mechanism and the alarm bell, "This new alarm wrist watch," says R. E. Hum- phries, describing the discovery, "should in time make us more punc- tual in our habits, because for the first time you can carry the equiva- lent of an alarm clock around with you. You can set it to remind you of your appointments." ISSUE 12 - 1949 Look pretty for your Steady Freddie!
