CHILD GUIDANCE Making a Will THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, July 10, 1953 ® Is Important To the Security of Family Life By CLEVELAND MYERS If every parent could foresee the difficulties that often result when one dies intestate, there would be a great scramble among parents to make a will. A lawyer is usually able tc help a person make a will directing what he wishes done with his es- tate, and to make it in such a way that these wishes will surely be carried out. When no will exists, a large part of the material things left may have to be paid to courts and lawyers, and frequently there is quarreling among the heirs over the estate. WIFE SHOULD, TOO As a rule, it is quite as impor- tant for the mother as the father to make a will, even though the average wife lives longer than her husband. [If they have lived to- gether cooperatively and compan- ionably, these wills can be identical in pattern. For each to know what is ir the other's will, bespeaks their mutual trust. A good many parents don't make a will because they just don't like to face the certainty that they will die, or even to talk about such matters with the spouse. Many a mother hoping her husband would make a will, doesn' venture to tell him so for like reason, or be- cause she fears such a suggestion might cause her husband to think her selfish. In a family of growing children, the parents discuss with these chil- dren, as soon as they are old enough to understand, the family income and outgo and the plan of GIVE YOURSELF A RAISE BY SAVING ON: LINGERIE ¢ 11 SIMCOE ST. S. HOSIERY SPORTSWEAR ' SPECIALTY SHOP (Next to Kresge's) saving and providing for the future of each parent and the children. The children know about life insur- ance. They also know, especially after they are twelve or fourteen, that each parent has made pro- vision in his or her will for the rest of the family who might be left. FEELING OF SECURITY Just consider what these mutual understandings and confidences can contribute to the feeling of security of each member of the family and how, moreover, it can cause each child to feel himself a worthy member of this family. The way we do and talk about these things while our children are growing up with us in the family, shapes their attitude toward us and memories of us after we will have gone. Having done our best while liv- ing to provide them with the best opportunities for education and pre- paration for mak a living on their own, why should they not be glad for us to will some of our estate, however small, to the local church, hospital, a college or some other worthy cause that deals with the imperishables? - 9 SIMCOE ST.

The man married me three months before my daughter was born but he never lived with me. I got a divorce a year later and went back to school, but it was awful. I . wanted to make good for my baby's sake, but the students shun- ned me and my brothers and sis- ters were always reminding me . of my past. : At 18 I quit school and married a farmer. I didn't mention my past to him and we were happy for two years. Then our son was born and my sister came to visit, dren, your daughter and her hus- band must recognize the value of loving-kindnéss in family life and make it regular practice in their household. = As for Ellen's father, evidently he wasn't much good but, in mar- rying you, he acknowledged re- sponsibility for the situation. And in so doing, he identified himself as the real: wrong-doer, and you as the victim entitled to redress. After all, at 15, you were a minor, too young from the viewpoint of law to be weighed in the scales of judgment that apply to adults.

(CP)--Pin-up {girls won't have to be banished {when the newly - created Press Council starts to function, British newspapers have been assured. A. J. Cummings, veteran col- umnist of the London News Chron- |icle, said in a speech here that {fears had been expressed about | the new council killing off pin-up girls. Cummings said the council would worry about aspects of the press that were far more impor- |tant than portraying pretty girls |in bathing costumes, and was not | likely to "indulge in the niggling and behind my back she told my right idea -- be happy henceforth | pastime of baiting or pinpricking husband of my past.

This time I told my husband everything and he said "Let's for- et the past; we are happy." 4 given my life to God and am trying to live for Him each day. My son-inllaw in his travels recently met one of my brothers, who told him of my past -- that I had to marry to give Ellen a name. I had a letter from her yesterday, asking the truth. should have told her before, know, but that is hard for a mother to do. Why don't they | leave me alone? What can I say | to her? Isn't there some way out for me? My husband says to write you before I answer. Please help me. --V. VICTIM OF CRITICS Dear V.L.: Your second husband was in error in labeling Ellen a bastard. A bastard is a person bora out of wedlock, and as it happens, you were married to El- len's father when she was born. Thus she is a legitimate child of both parents, and neither she nor her husband should give your brother's tattle tale cussedness ancther thought. As for what to write her, why not send her this article, letting it speak for you? On your behalf, let's get the rec- ord straight. As I see the picture, you've been more sinned against than sinning, all the way through. You've been the victim of gross stupidity and godless meanness, from a very early age. | Your family's sly trampling of you, via crushing reminders and back-knifing gossip, at every op- rtunity since you were mis- ated by Ellen's father, indicates that they had a hand in spoiling ur life. They pushed you into the path of trouble -- when you were too young to help or defend yourself or, indeed, to understand what forces were driving you. * Their perennial sniping at your Mistake, which continues to in- flict new injuries to this day, is part of a tedious rejection pattern they've always pursued in' rela- Fr to you. I am sure it existed ng before you were betrayed at . If you'd had a fair break me, your* whole eunsrience | would have been different, And to | safeguard the welfare of her chil-) at and forget the past. --M.H.
