Marriage Is Partnership And Entails Co-opera-tion, Jane Says.

Bring your problems up for discussion in this column. Jane Jordan will answer your questions daily.

Dear Jane Jordan—I am the mother of four children. My husband and I have been married 20 years and have always worked together in perfect harmony and agreement in the raising of our children. Recently a problem has arisen on which we do not agree and each is firmly convinced that he is right. Who is responsible for the raising of children? Can one be responsible without the authority to make decisions? A man consults his wife on important changes in business but the final decision he makes himself and rightly. Is it not fair, in matters of the home and children which do not have a bearing on finances, that the wife should make the final decision? PUZZLED MOTHER. u ” 2 ANSWER: Marriage is a partnership. In a partnership the responsibilities are divided but one does not make any major decision without the approval of the other. A partnership should be a job of co-opera-tion and not a struggle for power between the partners. It entails considerable salesmanship when one partner has an idea which the other cannot accept. The one whose idea is rejected should not feel a sense of injury because his powers were

curtailed by the other. He simply redoubles his efforts to convince his | partner, playing up logic and playing down emotion. If I knew what the problem was which has brought you and your husband to this impasse I would have a better chance of deciding which one was right and which one was wrong. The way you have stated : the case infers that you aren’t as interested in the decision itself as you are in the question of who has the right to make it. If this is true you have lost sight of the .main point, namely, what is best for the children? After 20 years of experience in pulling together, you and your husband should be able to reach a compromise. The important thing is that ' the children do not know that you are divided in your attitude toward them. Whatever your differences are, settle them out of their hearing.

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—Thereis a lovely young lady in a drug store near the Fort who is very kind to me every time I make a purchase. She is so sweet and nice that I wouldn’t offend her for anything in the world. It is said that love will find a way, but do you think that the light in her eye comes from her wanting to be pleasant and to keep me coming back to the place, or could she think of me as I think of her? I have never had a date and am 22 years old. How should I go about getting a date without blundering? JUAN DE KARL. - 2 2 n ANSWER—Unfortunately I haven’t the least idea whether the young lady is attracted to you or whether she is merely being pleasant because it is her business to pleage customers. You can find out for yourself by asking her questions which betray your interest. Is she married? Where does she live? Is she sewed up with a love affair? . Does she like the movies? What night is: she free to go to a show? If she responds readily to your questions without throwing up a warning wall of reserve, you can ask her to go with you to some dance or movie without fear of being turned down. JANE JORDAN.

Solution to Previous Problem By WILLIAM E. M’KENNEY

American Bridge League Secretary T required delicate handling for South to fulfill his contract on today’s hand. But at that the problem which confronted him and which he successfully solved is a common one at the bridge table. | Usually, when declarer has a preponderance of trumps, his first step is to draw those held by the opponents. Circumstances sometimes alter cases, and South in this instance had two other things to do before looking after that detail. North had a very fine two heart bid, and so, when his partner went to two no trump, he jumped to four hearts, rather than a “sign-off” of three hearts. ; When declarer saw the dummy,

ne realized that serious work was | cut out for him. It was not made | easier when East won the first | trick with the ace of spades and returned the 10. He had lost one | spade, he must lose one diamond | and there was an even chance that a heart trick would be lost. Thus South’s first problem was | to dispose of his losing spade. He | played the king of spades to the | second trick, then laid down the! king of clubs and followed with the gueen, which was overtaken in dummy. The jack of clubs gave him his needed spade discard. South, however, was not yet out of the woods. The trump léad had to be deferred until the diamonds were cleared. The queen of dia-. monds was won by East with the ace; and South let West's king of hearts win the next trick. West -returned a trump, but the hand now was safe. South took his diamond king and then crossruffed to make his trumps separately, thus fulfilling his contract. (Copyright. 1937. NEA Service. Inc.)

Early Correction of Minor Troubles May Save Big Worries.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON i Healthy children are happy chil‘dren, happy in the sense of being ' contented and energetic. The well child may differ from other children in good health, by being thinner and even eating less, but there is no mistaking genuine vitality and well-being. Eyes are bright, color is‘good and there is a steady gain in weight. This gain may be very slight in some children, but if the scales show progress, ‘then usually all is well. But there

i must be some gain.

eye, unimportant seemingly, but that are hetter corrected. * This is why parents are urged now to take their boys and girls for a health check-up fwice yearly. It does not take long for the doctor to test heart, lungs, kidneys and so fon, and it is a grand feeling to know ! that your child is organicaily sound.

Symptoms Elude Layman

As for nose, throat, ears, teeth and the other ordinary loci of infection in children, parents may suspect trouble and seek advice, but again there may be some elusive condition that only the practiced eye will be able to detect. Mothers are so often afraid of operations that they put off knowing the truth, whereas the truth may be a relief, the discovery that ‘the child is perfectly free from se= rious toxins and needs only treatment—or perhaps nothing at all. Nevertheless, these check-overs are strongly advised today, because the future is long, and early correction saves so much worry and trouble later. Eyes should certainly be examined also. If one dreads putting glasses on a child, it is comforting to think that glasses worn for a year or two in childhood often obviate the necessity of donning them for good when high school is reached. And if the child needs them, he needs them indeed. Eyes are very Dprecious. In the meantime, it is urged that parents make a sincere effort to do what they can to give the family a clean bill of health, to make a confidant of their doctor and seek his co-operation on a basis of time and terms to pay. There is usually a way, if people are honestly seeking help.
