Zurich Herald, 1953-11-19, Page 6"Dear Anne Hirst: Since I was
16, three years ago, I've been
going with my boy friend. Most
mf that time he was in the Army;.
I waited loyally for a while, then
broke with him. But when he
name home, he came straight to
me . ,. We love each other, yet,
we don't understand each other.
What can we do?
"I am a fun -loving girl, and
he's the quiet type. He dislikes
too much talking, or dancing —
everything I seem to love most.
My family don't like him too well
(because of his quietness) but
hi's people like me a lot.
"I've tried very hard to adapt
myself to his ways, yet I don't
ever seem to suit him. I'm get-
ting tired! I believe he has too
much self -concern ... What can
I do? I've never gone with any
other boy, nor he with a girl.
What is it I am doing that's
wrong?

* From all you tell me, I think
* you are trying too hard to ad-
* just yourself. You seem die-
* metrically opposite in temper-
* ament and tastes; all you have
* between you is what you call
* `love,' which could be just a
* physical attraction, You are
-* mature enough to know that
* this is not enough for true
" friendship, and utterly insuf-
* hcient for a good marriage.
opposites have married, and
successfully, but they are old-
* er and more understanding
"' than you, and have found mar-
" riage an exciting and satisfy-
* ing experience perhaps because
of their differences. Yet in
* marriage there must be some
* common grounds of mutual in-
* terest and pleasures — else
* whatever would you do with
* your leisure? It is enjoying the
* same avocations, and habits,
* together, that can cement or
* wreck a union.
* You can find out just how
* much to each other, what com-
* mon basis you have for mar-
* riage, by dating other friends.
* See each othe less often than
* you have, and go out with oth-

* know.
* Comparing your degree of
* enjoyment with thein, you can
o soon learn whether this bond

appreciate any one lad or girl,

It is not often a young girl
marries the first boy she dates;
certainly it is better to learn
what makes other boys tick, and
so better understand her own
emotional and temperamental
needs . . . You can write Anne

sympathy and wisdom. Address

Pndoors and Out
Locate needles quickly on your

ing them through the holes of a
4 -eyed button.
When traveling with young-
sters, give each his own small
suitcase, filled with favorite toys.
Tuck in a few surprises, too,
They'll enjoy packing and repack-
ing their "luggage"—avoids car
clutter.

Hurry freezer defrosting with
your tank -type vacuum cleaner.
Attach the cleaner -hose to ex-
haust, and blow air into the
freezer, especially on slow -melt-
ing spots.
* * *
Place a freshly -baked pie on a
colander. Circulation of air ar-
ound pie cools it quickly.

Make a door stop with a large
rubber heel. Attach to floor, un-
der the place on the wall where
the door -knob strikes. Avoids
noise, saves plaster.
* * *
Secure baby's crib blanket with
metal shower -curtain hooks. Sew
bone rings to blanket edges; slip
metal hooks through these rings
and snap around side slats of the
crib. Hooks will slide up and
down, giving baby room to move
. and turn—but he won't lose his
blanket.

Goofy Weddings
During the war there were re-
ports that a certain Gunner
Marks, attached to a searchlight
battery, needed three separate
ceremonies to ensure that he
really had married his bride.
To -clay there are, of course, the
radio networks who give away
the furnishings of a home as well
as providing everything for the
ceremony to lucky couples whose
vows, are watched by millions of
viewers.
Unusual marriages aren't so
unusual to -day when people
have been married in submar-
ines, on mountain peaks, and
with handcuffs on in gaol. One
man even married his house-
keeper inside his first wife's
tomb.
Ten years ago weddings in the
air were a novelty; to -day they •
are commonplace. A few years
ago, however, a couple tried to
get married while jumping by
parachute; the difficulty was to
keep the bride and bridegroom
close enough to the clergyman
so that the responses could be
heard. Despite the fact that a
big reward was offered in the
event of success, after many at-
tempts, this form of ceremony
had to be abandoned — reluct-
antly.
All sorts of accidents happen to
delay and sometimes invalidate
marriages. The story of the jus-
tice of the peace who performed
marriages before his appoint-
ment was through officially has
its counterpart in the clergyman
who joined couples in matrimony
before he was licensed.
One couple became engaged
in 1904, but owing to a series of
deaths, war service, illness and
other frustrations it was 1934 be-
fore they eventually ended up at
the altar. •
Another pair who fell i.n love
• in 1900 only became mar and
wife in 1939. Apart from deaths
in the family, war service, the
bridegroom broke his leg and the
next • year when he was well
their home was burned to the
ground.
Among the unusual marriage
ceremonies was that performed
by a clergyman on an Easter
Sunday on a Denver mountain
top. Both bride and bridegr.•oont
were unclothed — they were
practising nudists.
Those who are determined to
marry will overcome almost any
obstacle. Couples have been mar-
ried by telephone without see-,
ing each other at any time dur-
ing the ceremony.
One queer event was a mar-
riage in which the bride. Nina
Tarasava, a Russian dancer mar-
ried an American. An inter-
preter and dictionaries were em-
ployed for the occasion.
