JANE JORDAN

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I need your help desperately. I am nct . writing for myself alone but for my boy friend as weli. We both " want to know what we should do. We have een going together for four years. We are old enough and have been through enough. to know what we want. We are desperately in love but can’t get mar- * ried because of his parents. " It has been bad enough just to be together before my mother passed away, but now I am almost alone except for my boy friend. He realizes this, too, and it makes our problem all the harder. It is getting so we just can’t be around eacn other any more without feeling as if our hearts are being ripoved from cur bodies. know we can’t go on much longer, but what can we do? Please give us your opinion as soon as possible as there is no one else we can . eonsult, IN DESPAIR. 3 # ” ”

~ Answer—You do not tell me upon what the young man’s parents base their objections. Therefore I can’t give you, any sensible advice. Perhaps you do not have enough income to finance a marriage. If not, you hardly can ask the young man’s parents to- support you. You'd be more miserable than you are now. If lack of money is the trouble, the proper solution is for both of you to work hard and save. \ ‘This is the fate of the average young boy and girl and most of them manage to bear it. “However, this may not be the cause. I do not know for you have left your facts for me to guess. If you are financially able to marry and both of you are of age, then you will have to take your courage “both hands and marry without the parent’s consent. They have mn right to forbib the bans if you're both legally of age. They can refuse to help you but you shouldn’t need help after a certain age. Hardest of all to solve is the problem where the parents are old and infirm with no means of support but the son. It is easier to defy selfish and domineering parents-than it is kindly and helpless parents. In this case the only thing to do is to pare down the living expenses as low as possible while both of you work to meet the bills -

s

*.. Something about the ring of despair in your letter makes me feel that the parents are prejudiced in their viewpoint, Most young e are able to wait when they have something definite to look

Renard to. It is the “never, never” attitude of parents that breaks -
