Married 24 Years—On Verge of Separation AFTER 24 YEARS of marriage we are on the verge of a separation which we both admit shouldn't happen, We have three children at home. two married, and {wo grandchildren, which is all the more reason why - we should stick it out together, But we just can't agree on some things and are both too stubborn to give in, even a little. As a last resort, we have both agreed to talk "to someone who would listen to both sides and give us some advice and help us so at least we might have a home for the children Would vou please give us names of persons we might get in touch with at once? We are on a day-to-day status awaiting your reply. MR. AND MRS. H, K.
You don't want to separate or you'd do it instead of asking me.
You co-operate more than you realize—~you wrote this letter together, You're wise to seek ald, but talking with advisers won't help if you remain stubborn, Remember, you're both to blame-~you both have to try. : I doubt if you'd think that your arguments were very important on separate vacations. Why don’t you try. Go out often and have people in. Leave no time for arguments. You're probably more bored than unhappy with each other. Family Service Association (LI 6341) will be glad to help you or to refer you to an agency to deal with your specific problem,
Says He Loves Me—Goes With Other Women LAM A WOMAN of 24, I have been married a year and 11 months, My hushand tells me all the time that he loves me but yet he goes out with other women. He comes home with lipstick smeared on his face ahd shirts, When I ask him about these things he lies about them, But if I should happen to look at another man he starts quarreling with me and accuses me of stepping out on him. He seems to think that whatever he does is all right And he drinks an awful lot. He is very mean to me at those times when drinking, BLUE EYES, City, You sound as if you've heen trying to get even with each other and that's no good. Tell your husband that you love him and need him-—and act like it—for several weeks. Don’t look at other men in a manner that upsels him. That might stop the lipstick. He might have applied it himself. It might stop the drinking, too, You have a good starting point—your husband says he loves you,
Little Dog Cries Day and Night COULD YOU tell me how to go about gelting possession of a little dog that is chained up and cries day and night out in" the cold? The man who owns him won't sell him: I offered to buy it. but no matter what I offer he refuses. I understand he is mean and cruel to the dog I am old and sick and when it cries I feel worse Please give me some advice CITY READER. Call the Indianapolis Humane Society (M A. 2157) and report mistreatment of the dog. An officer will Investigate the case and If neces-
sary, warn the man. If the owner doesn't heed, the dog will be taken from him.
You can determine the dog's legal ownership by county license with your county trustee, and the city license at City Hall controller's office. He needs county and city dog licenses and | could he arrested if he has not paid those taxes. The dog may howl If he howls on the owner's property unless the
