JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN-I am 24 years old and have & boy © years old. I got a divorce from my husband because he ran off and Was gone several months before I knew where he was. When I did find out, he was in the Navy. He had a habit of leaving every once in a while, but this time I think he meant to stay which he will have to do for a period of years. He writes now and says that he is sorry he is there and tells me he does love me and always will. I love him, too, more than anyone

but would I do right by waiting for him since I have met someone else who wants me and my child and I can have a home once more? I think I can be fair with this man if I marry him and I like him well enough, but I can't get it out of my head that there is but one true love. This worries me all of the time. I do want to be happy again but I'm afraid I can't. WONDERING. ® es ® e s es

Answer—If your ex-husband has a habit of wandering oft every SO often, you have no reason to believe that joining the Navy had cured him. Suppose that you did wait until he was released. The chances are that after the reunion with his wife and child he would again be seized with the strange restlessness which causes him to wander. A man with wanderiust in his soul does not make a very satisfactory husband. No sooner does he settle down in one place than he wants to be in another, as you have seen. Now that he is in the Navy he wants to be home, and if he came home he would want to oe somewere else. His promises mean nothing for he cannot keep hem. I have no idea whether the man who wants to marry you is a person whom you can love and trust. However, I do not hold with your view that there is only one true love in life. Experience does not Pear out such a romantic notion. Many women who have been disappointed in love, live to love again, sometimes more wisely. When we find that we have made a bad emotional investment the only sensible thing to do is to call it a day and invest in something that brings in better returns. The dif ference between a well-adjusted perspn and a mal-adjusted person is that the one can forget the past, whereas the other hangs on to his woes forever. You want to be happy but youre afraid you can’t. Why? Your fear is not based on anything real but simply on a false concept of love which you believe strikes but once. You have only to examine the lives of others to explode such a theory. It is true that you cane not force yourself to fall in love. If you don't want to marry the man who has asked you, it would be a mistake to fly in the face of your mstinets. It may be that your conviction that there is only one true love is

CHILDREN

WHAT IS THE BEST CURE fot that feeling of inferiority in children: A. Scolding? B. Praise? C. Encouraging them to do a few things well? D. Helping them to have more faith in themselves? To begin with, I think that “A” should be eliminated at once. If a child thinks he's no good at anything, impatience on our part will only make him worse. Praise helps little children a great deal. They lap up approval s0 nicely, when their fumbling attempts are rewarded by a cheery word and a smile, As they grow older, however, and have to hold their own in “school and neighborhood, as well as at home, they get pretty canny about praise, The boy or girl once fixed in his idea that he can't do things as well as other people can, won't believe our praise, real or not, most of the time. And that’s the pity of it. If praise were the cure-all it is supposed to be, parents of unsure children would not be so distracted to find an answer. They would just keep on telling Bob that he’s the finest boy in the world and Betty that she is sweet and beautiful, They know that it is not quite enough. = » = . = » THIS LEAVES "C” and “D,” both of which are potent remedies when used along with "B.” But this prescription composed of three Be EE on : . parts will only go part way, even at that. 3 3 Ba : & : WN RRR 3 ES 3 i ; i

grows to man or womanhood and becomes successful, The boy, let's say, can’t get his lessons, can’t get on a team or shine in any way. His inferiority in this case, we must add, is not the result, but the cause of his failure, Being so uncertain he gets nervous and makes mistakes. The vicious circle goes round and round, for the oftener he fails the worse he feels and the less confidence he has. Yet all the time he has a little packet of ability back in his head, that will count. For one thing, he won't give up a thing once begun, For another, he thinks ahead. And another, he can create new ideas, Presto—we may find him at 40 a great inventor, architect, axecutive or what not, His old fears and dread of self are pretty well washed up now, fle save, “What a poor little miserable wretch I was, and all for othing.” » Inferiority is better cured within one’s self, if it is to be cured at all.

A np PATTERN 138 SAA YOUTHFUL DRESS ALY HAS YOKE NOVELTY

VERY YOUNG ideas has this little frock that will look so lettuces erisp for the warm weather stretch just ahead. Claire Tilden has given Pattern 138 a carefree air by omitting waistline seams and using darts all around for smooth neat fit, with the full skirt flaring out breezily below. The whole frock is cut in just seven pieces, not counting the belt -an easy dressmaking task for any young miss with the Sewing Guide for help. Lend radiance to your face by making the deep yoke in a flourish of white—pique or organdie would be charming. Then frame it with a candybox frill of ruffling and add saucy little ribbon bows. Wouldn't pointed sleeve tabs to match look attractive? You might prefer the more everyday style with its tiny collar in place of the scalloped neckline, and perhaps with vivid contrast for sash, yoke, collar and sleeve tabs. The belt may tie in front or in back. A perfect “first try" style for beginners! Pattern 138 is cut in junior miss sizes 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 16 and 17.
