THE STORY: Colin feels Ann should mee Jock once more before their marriage. Ann is afraid to, admitting she still cares for Jock.

CHAPTER "ER ELEVEN COLIN HAD none of the eccentricities Ann expected from genius. Sometimes she was almost afraid he wasn't a genius after all—he was so nice, If there had been anything that had given her qualms about marrying him, it had been the thought that he would take a great deal of living up to. But Colin in private life was amazingly lackingein dignity. There was no’ doubt of it. Living with Colin was fun. Ann loved managing a house, She had a credulous mind, and no sales!

VA Offers Aid to Veterans

Who Are Hard-of-Hearing

WASHINGTON, May 17.—A pro-|

gram to help veterans who are deaf] or hard-of-hearing has launched by the Veterans’ Administration.

Any veteran who has this trouble as a result of his service is eligible] to receive help. VA is trying to do

this job with as little inconvenience| to the veteran as possible. When | ‘it can be done that way, the training courses will be given to veterans in small groups where they work or are attending school.

The courses consist of lip-reading, |

speech and voice correction, and acoustic training. Their aim is to enable the veteran to live and work as normally as possible in spite of a| hearing defect. Write Regional Office An expert at helping the hard-| of-hearing is now stationed in each| VA regional office. Veterans should write to their regional office for information on how to get in on this program. You can get the. ad-| dress of your regional office from | the local postoffice. For the ex-serviceman who tives] in a small community, and for the] one who lives where there aren't enough other veterans who have the same trouble to -justify formation of a group class, VA will arrange individual instructions with local teachers and facilities. Check Present Programs

And all veterans with defective hearing who have already started some kind of training to aid them will be checked to see that they are making satisfactory progress That, applies to those who started

such training before this special program was begun. The investigation will also de-

termine whether or not the veteran is in a job Which doesn’t aggra-

This doesn't mean that a man { who needs this training will be {told by the VA just what job to | take, The dischargee will be permitted to do any work he wants to do and can do while he is getting the training. { If the veteran's hearing loss is | 50 severe that he needs special attention before he can choose a | job field and start his education jor training, VA will arrange for the courses as medical treatment on an out-patient basis.
