She is not happy with her husband. They have two child- ren. "Her husband goes out a lot, but doesn't take her with him. He does "not work, neither does she.

"A husband who tells his wife that, can't love her anw too well. She knows I am writing vou, so please trv to help us. MIKE AND BROWN EYES" I well understand your unhap- piness 4n secing an attractive young woman so unhappy with a husband who publicly insults her, You are young vourself, and idealistic. Her plight arouses all your chividry., You picture her as a forlorn muiden in the clutches of a modern villain, a rogue who neglects and mistrefits her, who boasts about his conquests. You believe her heart is breaking un- der his récklessness. And you see vourself as the knight sans re- proche who 'will rescue her from this misery, and carry her away on his charger to an eternal dream of happiness. * ¥ * * * * * * * * * * » * * * - * * * ity! If by some miracle these two * could be divorced and you were * to marry" lier, you would find » * could not manage one husband, and burdened with the responsi- * bility of two children that belong ~* to another man--children whom vou neither know well nor under- * stand, vet to whom you would "= *_have to be a good and understand- * ing father. : * Remember, too, that this man's boasting may be all talk. A hus- band does not usually use such language to his wife in public if he is really serious about separat- ing. Many a weak male gives himself away by his big words Keep yourself out of this, It is too bad you have, evidently, disclosed your feclings to this wife; that you had no right to do, her alone; if they come again to your home, leave. You must have no influence on her now, If she intends divorcing her hus- band. let it be because she has good reason to--not because she 'thinks she is in love with another nian. gitls who are single. There are plenty of then about to amuse vou, and take your mind off a married" woman. At your age; it is wise to realize that you will probably be in love with more girls than one before you are settled cnough to marry any- body.

DON'T HURT YOURSELF * In your anxiety not to hurt * others, don't overlook hurting * yourself. * So long as you work with this * man, or stay where you can see * cach other often, your love will * flourish. Since it cannot be ful- * filled, it can only grow more and * more tragic. You will live in in- * creasing resentment which might * readily become a bitterness which * could consume you. * Be realistic. . * Take yourself away from this * daily association, Find the sort * * of work you feel yourself fitted * for (in another city, if you can) * and bury yourself in it. : * You need new faces, new ideas, * new surroundings. Nothing else * will help you so much. Among * them, you will be able to resign * yourself to the inevitable, and at * the same time develop fresh int- * erests and ambitions that will help * make your life the useful life you * want it to be, "meaning some- * thing" to others as well as your- * self. * You have courage, and a willl * which will not be denled. Once * you make «the break, you will * wonder why you hesitated so * long. * You and this man can keep in * touch frequently enough to be * assured, of each other's well be- * ing. Then you will find peace, at * least--which you can never know * so long as you are together. * . * When temptation comes, run away. We never can know how strong we will be in the face of It, so why court tragedy? Anne Hirst will help you find the cburage you need. Write her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth St, New Toronto, Ont.

Under-Earth Diving In Wookey Hole Wookey Hole -- the very name has an eerie and secret sound -- is a famous cave beneath the Mendip Hills in the west of England, a cave with vaulted chambers, through which runs the subterranean Ake. Edmund J. Mason, a very keen amateur archaeologist who - is archaeological adviser to the local Cave Diving Group, gave a BBC radio talk about this wonderful cave and described the work done there recently by divers. With other spe- clalists they carried out the first archaeological* work to be done on the bed of a subterranean river. They worked at night when all visitors had gone and took their equipment into the cave and down the long flight of concrete steps known as Hell's Ladder; at the foot of another fan-shaped flight led them to the first great chamber, They switched on the lights, which "showed _the great stalagmite shaped like a face which is called the Old Witch of Wookey. A path at the side of the cave leads from chamber _ to chamber and underwater lights showed the entrance to the sub- merged arches through which the river flows from one chamber to another. Assistants dragged the skin-tight rubber suits over the divers, their glass face pieces were screwed in place, their oxygen turned on and down they went. They descended in the first chamber and came out in the third, and while they were: working the lights in the cave were turned off so that the men on the path could see the blue light the divers carried showing through the water as they surfaced. The divers brought up muddy obJects which were placed in ,a& sandbox and packed around. with a mixture of sand and sawdust to be handled with infinite care. Spots where the objects were found were marked on the chart of the river. Diving operations sonietimes went on till four inthe morning, and then, after a few hours sleep, the investi- gators met to discuss the results of the operations. For the archaeologi- cal team the work was by no means complete for the material found has to be preserved, labelled, recorded and then submitted to experts, who report on the approximate age at death, racial characteristics, and many other things.

"Is 'there any connection?" sald Mr, Mason, "be- tween these skeletons and the witch stalagmite or in the steps of un- known origin carved in the floor * leading to the river, Again there is the possibility that the burials were made in some dry part of the cave and were subsequently washed into the river by flood waters or even placed in the river bed at some time when it was dry. On thé other hand, did some - later people throw the bones Into the river while tidying up the cave for their own occupa- tion?" . All this has yet to be discovered. The divers think they have cleared the river bed, but muh more ma- terial may lle hidden In its muddy banks. 'They are also anxious to push on upstream to discover yat - more hidden chambers. A smail band of enthusiasts is in training to carry out underwater excavation on the banks by means of pressure hoses. Wookey Hole may still hold more secrets which man can wrest from beneath the subterranean river, Rout Evil With Good Many children turn to, "funny books" simply because there is no other kind of reading for them in their homes. It is shocking to dis- cover how many parents omit books in the family budget. Children will read good literature, it it is put within reach. As a matter of fact, most normal children will get a reasonably balanced literary diet if it is made available to them. Maybe a few more libraries more - easily accessible to more children, could be an answer. Certainly, if parents buy a few good books and leave them where children can stumble op them, there will be some- thing to take the place of the trash kids have been finding. 2 It must -not be forgotten, 'either, that a large part of "funny book" - sales are to adults, not fo children. If good books are provided, and youngsters still get. an overdose of crime, sex, and violence, that will be the time to talk about swinging the ax of censorship.

Alarm Wrist Watch A discovery that will be of grest benefit to a large nuinber of people has been made because a watch- maker heard a cricket chirruping as he walked in the mountains of Swiatzerland. If such a tiny inseet could make a sound clearly audible from a distance of a dozen yards, why, he thought, could he not make an alarm bell that was small enough to go in a wrist watch but yet noisy enough to wake a sleeper? The upshot of his mountain walk was an alarm mechanism that works on the principle of the cricket's chir- rup. The cricket makes his distinet and penetrating noise by rubbing the file-like edge of one wing against | the other. The watch maker pro- duced the same effect by setting ® light hammer to vigrate against a thin metal diaphragm. The result is that now, in a case no bigger thaa that containing an ordinary wrist watch, lies both the methanism and the alarm bell. "This new alarm wrist watch," says R. E. Hum- phries, describing the discovery, "should in time make us more punc- * ; tual in our habits, because for the first time you can carry the equjya- lent of an alarm clock around with you. You can set it to remind yom of your appointments." Donnan a GEE IE SES ISSUE 12 -- 1949 And the 5 ' RELIEF IS LASTING For remarkably fast relief from head. ache get INSTANTINE.
