I'M 2) and have been married over a year. I have a daughter two months old. My husband works nights and I get so lonesome and tired of everything. Saturdays he doesn’t work and if I can, I get a sitter, usually once a moiith. By the time my husband gets ready

I've never said anything to my husband about being dissatisfied and we usually have a good time. He knows I don’t like to drink so. don’t you think that one.night-when we can go.out he'd hurry so we really could-go out? a We both like to dance, skate and bowl and we-used to go to the movies quite a bit. I really can’t understand why we always

Wants to Participate in Radio Programs

I LIKED THE WAY you answered Mrs. K.'s letter Jan. 20 only you didn’t “smear” it on enough. There should be a law sentence ing her to jail for awhile for bringing poor helpless children into this crooked world, Her kind has the nerve to try to break up a married man's home! . That's the trouble—we women keep the home fires burning so these women can do their dirty work. Well, I have a husband who thinks there's rio one but me though he works with lots of women. Belleve me, if I were this other man’s wife I would give this “mother” the beating of her life. I. have no mercy for these husband and wife “snitchers,” Why don’t some other housewives let her know what they think? A DAILY READER. It's not such a crooked old world—you have a good husband and your husband has a good wife. Don’t you think that we should try to make other gond people from the ruins?

boy I-like says he likes rie and no one else. We went steady once and I broke because I didn't believe he liked me anymore. Now I find he does. He wants me to say I love him. Do you think if T tell him I love him he'll drop me? I said I'd go steady when he asked me to, but he sald we couldn't till after he keeps ‘his dance date with a girl. You see, I don't like to jitter. bug and he does, so he doesn’t like to take me. I like him so much and he has said when we're 18 we are‘going to get WarTied. : Spe Jk AT. You'd better like jitter-bugging and be good at it—or you'll be left again.

Boy Friend's Bashful

AM A TEEN-AGER. My boy friend lives in Ohio and I live here, I met him when he visited relatives here, When he went back I wrote but received no answer. Two months later his family came here but he didn’t, His sister and I talked and she said he didn’t answer my letter because he was bashful. Should I believe her or forget him or just act

friendly? CURIOUS.

Gen. Eisenhower succeeded Secretary of State George C. Marshall as Army Chief f Staff. File in Silently Shortly before the ceremony

hower, Gen. Bradley and Army Secretary Kenneth C. Royall marched stiffly in single file into Mr, Royall's office. High ranking generals and other military and civilian leaders present for the ceremony were silent. Gen. Eisenhower and Gen. Bradley, the GI's general, made a military pivot to face each other. Gen. Bradley raised his hand while Gep. Eisenhower read the oath of ‘office. .. | “I do,” Gen. Bradley then said {in a firm voice. . “With those words you have a job,” Gen. Eisenhower said as

his successor. Gets Third Cluster Mr. Royall handed Gen. Bradley his. commission and sdid “I am sure you will prove a worthy successor to a great chief of staff.” The . President then presented Gen. Eisenhower with the third oak leaf cluster to the Distinguished Service Medal and a silver {claret box as a memento from {the joint chiefs of staff. Shortly before Gen, Eisenhower formally relinquished his post he held a farewell news conference. He said that he would forego a fishing vacation to begin work immediately on his memoirs. He sald he wanted “to provide some security for my family.” Hopes for Good Start

Ike said that he would begin writing his memoirs in Washington. He hopes to get a good start! before he reports to Columbia University to become President on! June 7. He will write the boak himself without help from another writer, he said. His health is excellent and he has recovered completely from an attack of bursitis in his arm and shoulder, He said he will try to practice at Columbia “the same simple truths I practiced in the Army.” Gen, Eisenhower left these

T0 THE BOY SCOUTS—EREETINGS

We congratulate you on your 38th birthday. But in a larger sense—the community and the nation are to be congratulated for having an organization such as yours in spirit and purpose.

We touch the hat to your many activities—to your creed of "good deeds''—but beyond and above all else— , we are mindful of the CHARACTER BUILDING that Scouting brings to the younger generation. You teach the value of work—the rewards of achievement—you teach - self-reliance. A Scout is reverent—he has integrity—

This Character building (supplementing the endeavors at Home and at School) is, we think, the flower of Scouting activities—for without Character life has no satisfying rewards—and without Character in the citizenry of a Republic such as ours—the nation cannot successfully live. :
