dhe a ANS a) "ul Ch 3 GRAY " / Dear Anne Hirst: : My little daughter and I live vith parents, who look after ier while I am working, (I am 10t married.) Life here is miser- ble for me; my father and mo- her object to every man I date, ind treat me as though 1 were t moron. Why can't they see hat I 'have lived and learned ind know .my way around? 1 ry to be a good mother, too. Still they nag me continually. (t is getting me down. "I've been dating a married man who has started his divorce. He is wonderful to me and I love him, but don't want him to know it yet. He takes other girls out now and then, but says it is me he really cares for. WORRIED SICK" STILL UNTAMED Yes, my driend, you have lived, but how much have you learned? > Dating a married man| Risk- ing your good name for the second time! Dishonoring your parents, after burdening them with the care of your child! Now distressing them almost beyond belief, so de- termined are you to live your own life and challenge all their efforts to guide you? Don't think of leaving this home you have--and isn't it about time you grow up and show some appreciation of the protection your parents are trying to provide? What is it, you want of life? Just your own way? See where that has landed you so far--in shame, which is shared by your fam- ily and, I hope, some remorse. I do not wish to be harsh, but surely you realize that your first mission in life now is to live the gobd life, and raise your little girl to be a fine young woman. If you are ever to recover the respect of your community, and make that girl proud, you will have to- accept your duty and be content with it for a long time to come. To be running around with a man who still has a wife is to court gossip of the low- est sort, which again reflects on your family. You need not live a life of secluion, but the least you can do in all conscience is to pay your debt to society with prudence and dignity. I can only hope you will cease seeing the man now, and refuse to have anything to do with him until he is free. That course will win his respect, LARA AEE A EE IE I A a I IE IE aE a a EE RE EE EE TT rr a Blouse Bonanza PRINTED PATTERN Terrific trio--ready to refresh 'your wardrobe almost as fast as you can say 'Printed Pattern."

What should a young man do when at a party or other function, and he finds himself next to a girl to whom he has not been introduced? * A. He can say, "I am Paul Sprague. I do not believe I have met you." ! Q. What is considered the proper length of time between the announcement of the en- gagement and the wedding? A. There is no definite rule, this depending naturally upon circumstances. Usually, the maximum is six months, and if a couple anticipates a. greater length of time, they will post- pone the announcement of their engagement until they are fairly certain of the date of their mar- riage, Q. Is it permissible to mail a joint wedding invitation to an engaged couple, or must an in- dividual invitation be sent to each? A. Correctly an individual in- -| vitation should be sent to each. However, if you are' running short of invitations, you could be forgiven for mailing a joint in- vitation to this couple. In this case; you address the outer en- velope to the girl, "Miss Jane Miller," and the inside envelope to "Miss Miller and Mr. Robert Collins." "Show mae something leas exe pensive.

Filming began recently on M-G+M's 'answer to Paramount's colossal "The Ten Command- ments," and it promises to be an answer heard around the world. First budgeted at $8.5 million, the total cost may well reach $15 million; The average movie . takes 60 days to shoot; this one will take six months, ' The project is Gen. Lew Wal- lace's sure-fire old spectagcular about the early Christians in pagan Rome--"Ben-Hur," which starred Ramon Novarro and Francis X. Bushman back in. 1926. By last week M-G-M had blown all the dust off the old property, hired the lion's share of the Eternal City, set it back. 2,000 years, and was ready to - roll. To all visitors, M-G-M de- scribes the "Ben-Hur" set as the biggest ever raised by the hand of man on God's green earth, an? it may well be. Sprawling &° over Rome's huge Cinecitta stu- dios are entire sections of Jeru- salem--streets, the ancient tem- ple, the emperor's palace; an artificial sea, the biggest in Eu- rope, with machinery to stir up angry (or mildly lapping) waves; a huge Roman galley with oar posts for nine-dozen slaves; and a 15,000-square-foot cyclorama that will provide a great variety of Mediterranean skyscapes.

Scattered elsewhere around the sets are stables, pastures, and training rings for 78 horses and twelve camels. Towering over all this activity is a 5,000-seat Circus Maximus built for a cli- mactic chariot race which will take 35 minutes of. the film's three hours of running time. The entire set is enclosed by barbed wire. This is because Hollywood has discovered from past experience that although - 5,000 European extras may file in at the start of a day's work, sometimes only a few, hundred bother to stick. it out the whole: day. Truants then sneak back in the evening to collect their pay- checks. As the leading actors -- Jack . Hawkins, Stephen Boyd, Sam Jaffe, Finlay Currie among them - began to drift into town, Charl- ton Heston, who has the title role. that used to be Ramon Novar- ro's, was already, learning: how to. handle his four-horge chariot for the big race with the villain- ous Messala (Boyd). Heston was undecided how much driving. he will negotiates "himself and how much will. be done by stuntmen, headed by a. 62-year-old horse-. man named , Yakima Canutt. "Canutt is thé best in the busi- - ness," sald Heston, "He could back a four-horse chariot inte a parking space and make the lead horse put a pickel in the meter, As for me, by. religion I'm a devout coward." = NEWSWEEK. a childless union. JUST A PRINCESS NOW--Ex-queen Soraya of Iran, center, poses with her mother, Mrs. Eva Esfandiari, and her brother, Bijam, " aboard the liner SS Constitution, bound for New York. Soraya became a princess when she was divorced by the Shah after We were back to our old haunts last week -- that is, -in . and around Ginger Farm, We shall be glad when the trees are quite so uncared for. A young have it rented at the moment so the inside of the house looks all right but the outside .is scream- ing for paint and repairs. It had we left but now the whimpering has become a mournful wailing. The flelds; too; are a sight to see, thick with 'weeds and old, uncut hay. Strange,. isn't it, how so much land and so many build- ings must deterioriate to. make way for expansion and progress -- to say nothing of the sacrifice of trees. In the space of twenty miles we must have passed the stumps: of over a hundred newly- their removal absolutely neces- road wouldn't miss the trees-but we, who know every mile, note the changes with dismay, al- though we realise: changes are inevitable. . Our trip to the country was partly on David's'account. Ever he has been wanting to know where grandpa's barn had gone _|__to and usually ended up by say- ing -- "Some day we'll find it, won't we?" Sure enuogh when we stopped at the entrance to Ginger Farm he knew it -- "Look, Gramp . . . see, there's your barn!" He was so excited. When we were living there we didn't realise how much the farm meant to him or how he would miss all the animals. Now we know it doesn't make us any happier, There are many things a child can get along without but country life isn't one of them. An intimate knowledge of farm life and farm animals should be a birthright for small children, # Not but what David is perfect- ly happy where we are. With an acre of ground to play around in he isn't exactly cooped up. He went home last Saturday af- ter his recuperation holiday.

And * that's the way we like it -- with limitations, Yesterday the door- bell started ringing when 1 was dying for a snooze. Partner sent the children away and told them to come back at four o'clock. It was 3:40 when they returned. Lily looked at the clock and said "I guess we came twenty min- ° .utes too soon, didn't we?" They are all cute kids, never really give us any trouble and they have plenty of fun with an extra yard to play in. Well seasonal events are grad- ually- 'becoming a thing of the past.

If the . powers that be really must in- sist on changing the time I think it would be far better if it went into effect from the end of March until the end of September in- stead of April 16 October, the present set-up, It wouldn't be too .much of a hardship getting up an hour earlier in the spring but 1 dread the thought of October when one's energy is naturally at a low ebb.
