rice eo Ask Mrs. Manners—
Dear Mrs. Manners: "IAM A YOUNG GIRL of 19," went with
My problem is the boy 1) summer,
last We seemed to be pretty crazy. about one another—then all of a sudden we stopped going together. Now he is working where I am. We see each
other all dav, me bat ne jest won't ask me for a date, about him and I think he still likes me While we were going together he always said he would never get married, so to keep him from thinking 1 iiked him I said the same thing Now what should I'do to try to'win him back? I have dates all the time with different boys but 1 just don't seem able to forget him. TI know I'd be sure if 1 had another date with -him. Sometimes he acted like he wanted to ask me for a date but we were always interrupted, Please help me MISS B Why waste your time? You knew that you were lost when the man told vou that he didn’t want to marry. If he loved you he'd marry you, in the face of odds. You think that he still likes you because you want him. 1 don't believe that he ever did. I'm not going to worry about you, You attract other men—a good one will come along.
She Can't Forget Her Tragic Past
1 HAVE A PROBLEM and I am sure a great number of women, and men too, share it with me At the age of '17 years I ran away from home with a very\cruel man of 23. During our three weeks of married life he mistreated me dreadfully and on the last day I was with him he brought another woman in the house and told me to get out. . IT am a very son and somehow that experience has left its mark on me I am now nearly 19 andl have married someone who loves me and whom I love dearly, We have a perfect life together and he is husband, We have only been married four months our wedded bliss will last until our deaths We go once a week and we’ are living good, clean
He comesggnd talks to me and “kids’ with [.am very crazy

a mode] but T am sure that to church at Teast
My trouble is, though, that I cannot put the past out of my life 1 keep remembering all my trouble and I upset myself s0 much that 1 don't know what to do. 1 have tried hard to forget it alk but it tx im possible. It is with me morning, noon and might I don't feel like 1
am being fair to my husband by remembering all this, although I never Never mention it to him What shall 1 do? 1s there any way. at all to gel om this terrible rogue? gD You're doing the right thing—but you're lod impatient for results. You've wisely and fortunately found a man you love, you. go. places, and you don't talk about your first husband to vour second. You have every advantage—vou're just 19—too young for misfortune but voung enough to recover. Engage in affairs of young people in your church and neighborhood. You can manage your mind—copcentrale on happiness and keep It too busy for brooding. Faith in your husband's love will restore your faith in men.
V'here Can One Take an Aptitude Test?
WILL YOU TELL ME if there is any place In Indianapolis where one can take an aptitude test to find out what type of work one is best suited for?

Wants to Wed, but No Drinking, Please I HAVE BEEN READING your answers and I have a great problem I am a widow 55 years old and have raised my family, My husband has been dead five years. 1 would like to be married again but it seems that all the older men drink. As I am a Christian woman 1 do wot believe in drinking and such things. I own my own home and I want to know if you know of any way I could earn a living at home. I would take care of children but there is not much money in that, I have always been a “stay-at-home” and 1 do not know anything about getting out in public I am so lonesome, LONESOME WIDOW Get a Job away from home to recover from your shyness, Advertise for work, check advertisements, and place your name with an employment agency, You might find a husband. You're really a “home-body” ahd many “non-drinking” men are lonesome for your (ype. The man won't appear without effort on your part. He'll have to see you and be pleased with what he sees.
Finding It Difficult to Trust Her Husband
I AM A READER of your advice that is in The Times. I would like your advice on my trouble, {t means everything to my boy and I My husband got a girl in trouble and sire had the baby which was a boy. This girl was a single woman but has been married and had two ys. My husband #ald This girl run after him and he does not love her and wouldn't marry her. She had him put in jail and he had to pay her a large sum of money. ¢
I sued my husband for divorce. He begged me to take him back which T have, but T can't forget. He is building me a new home. but here is a doubt in my mind. Does he call or sée this girl? She lives
and he has some things that he should get in that city but he won't go. I asked him if he was afraid and he sald “ves” Am I “nuts” to live with him? Please let me know BELLE Aren't you happier with him that you'd be without him? Your pride Is suffering—if no one knew ahout the trouble vou probably wouldn't consider a divorce. Remember that you aren't the only wife in your neighborhood who has shelved pride for love and a home. I hope that some write to you. Your husband is trying and he wants you, He won't forget the zirl if you keep mentioning her. Maybe he is afraid to see her because he fears she may bother him. Become interested in your new house. Make vour trouble bring you and your husband closer tozether, It's largely up to you if vour husband remains faithful,
