DEAR JANE JORDAN—After being a widow for a few years I found a man who had lost his companion also. We got along fine and were married. Each of us had two children and I really thought it would be ideal for our children would have both a mother and a father. I had more of this world’s goods than he when we married and have as much invested in our home as he has. I have only one near relative besides my children while my husband has father, mother, uncles, aunts and.gousins galore. I was expecting to be a part of this family but I find no part of his family is mine. They hang together leaving me and mine out. If one of them gets sick everyone is worried to death and expects me to drop everything to rush in and cdre for him. In a crisis all of them get together and save the day, but I get no help} from them, no sympathy for me or my children. My husband can find a way to get anything either of his children need but he never sees that I or mine need anything. I have tried everything but divorce. In that case he would again have all the help for he and his hang together and I have no

Answer—Perhaps it is too late to do anything about your hushand’s family. They are what they are, a closed corporation, selfish, unthinking, and unsympathetic toward those not of their blood, I do not think you can hope to be taken into their group wholeheartedly, to be loved, helped, nursed or comforted. Perhaps it was a little@igaive of you to have ‘expected fair play in the first place. The only hope I have to offer is the possibility that you can learn not to take it'so hard.” Just accept it as a fact. You will have to solve your problems and your children’s problems for yourself. Do what you have to do for your husband’s family, but don’t do any more than that. You can draw the line at lavish service since they do not respond to it by giving something back themselves. This may sound like cold comfort, and it is, but many other people are in the same boat. They have to learn how to get on without help even though they never lose the yearning for childish dependency on the love and help of others. Ac-. tually they are stronger people for the lack of a leaning post. They are more mature and adequate than those who have to be rescued. I wonder is this is the first time you ever felt rejected by a family, or if it is a repetition of the feeling you had for your own family

aid from the family group is sore thing you always have craved and never have had. This may be why you feel your separateness so JANE JORDAN, Put your problems in a letter to Jane

“Confer with the welfare agency first. If there are nurseries, help to improve them. If there are no nurseries, then start some.” In urging clubwomen to sacrifice more for the war effort, Mrs. Ahlgren suggested that the consumer plédge be followed: “(1) Buy carefully, (2) Take good care of what you have, and (3) Waste nothing.” Also speaking at the meeting was Mrs. Qeorge W. Jagua of Winchester, chairman of the war service department. “It is the primary purpose of this department to guide the clubwomen of Indiana into constructive war effort,” she said. “We want to avoid duplication of effort and for that reason urge every woman to train herself in some phase of Red Cross work and to fit into the plans of her local office of civilian defense, she continued.
