There's An Answer (by Norman Vincent Peale and Ruth Stafford Peale) Wants Him to Hurt Q. I had both arms and hands in a cast from a swimming accident when I found out mv husband was having an affair. I would still be in the dark if he hadn't had a car wreck late at night with his lady friend. I'm so bitter and vengeful. I have attacked my husband on five different occasions. I want to claw his eyes out. I want him to hurt like I do. For two months I stayed locked in the house with the lights off and curtains pulled. I cried day and night. My 8-year-old son helped me; he's great. I probably would have killed myself. I just know I can never forgive or forget. A. You will never get anywhere being bitter or vengeful, and locking yourself up in the house can lead to mental imbalance. Moreover, you are doing your young son a great injustice to enlist his help and sympathy If you really want to be nappy misery and become a joyful, loving person. Hard experiences is help a you really want to be nappy you will have to give up your iery and b«ome a joyful, loving person. Hard experiences can either make or break us. It is up to you whether > ou want to be miserable and embittered or, a far better choice, become the mature, attractive woman God made you to be. We are sending you our booklet Thought Conditioners which has helped others overcome bad thoughts. Anyone wishing a free copy may write to us at box 500, Pawling, N Y. 12564. Is Witchcraft Wrong? Q. I have a book about witchcraft. Before I read and use this book containing spells I would like to know that it would be alright with our Lord. I am a believer in Jesus Christ. How would He feel about witchcraft? A. If you can read about witchcraft in a scholarly fashion st as you would read of any strange phenomenon it won't ; you as a Christian believer. But be careful not to fall for it. As a Christian you are in Truth, and true followers of Jesus Christ are always mentally sound, never dabblers in strange doctrines. Nor do they need "spells" for they have God's power within them. Bad Example Q. We lost our lovely 28-vear-old daughter about a year ago, very-suddenly. She was the mother of two sweet little girls. Her husband promised to care for them, but to this day, almost a year later, they have not been in Sunday school or church except the weekends they visit us. He also has a "live in" arrangement with a divorcee. We love our granddaughters so much and feel this situation is such a bad example. We have tried reasoning with the father. What steps can we take? If we keep quiet and stay out completely, giving it all to God, are we failing? A. You are facing a tricky situation. If you push too hard your son-in-law will back away completely and you'll lo6e whatever influence you now have. If you retreat altogether the little girls will miss out on loving guidance from their grandparents. If you can strike a middle point where you still have influence on your grandchildren and a rapport with their father you have the chance to instill your Christian values into their family life. Do this and then commit the whole situation to God in prayer. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale, write to them at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y. 12564. • ^ . . . * • Community • Calendar ' t i i i i m i n t i m n FEBRUARY 25 Dobson films, 7 p.m.- Faith Presbyterian church- public invited.

The versatility, therefore, makes it a queen among cooks who enjoy turning out delicious casseroles. This recipe while simple, is one designed for those who like the subtle taste of the eggplant. Eggplant Casserole 1 large eggplant, pared and cut into pieces 1 medium onion, quar­ tered 3 T butter 1 slice of white bread V» c grated sharp cheese 1 egg, separated salt and pepper Boil the eggplant and onion until tender. Drain well and chop finely. Add butter, crumbled bread, half of cheese, egg yolk, and sea­ soning to taste. Mix well. Beat egg white until stiff and fold into first mixture. Pour into a buttered, shallow dish and sprinkle remaining cheese on top. Bake for Vi hour at 300 degrees. AM SEW TAILOR AND SEAMSTRESS SHOP (FORMERLY L. PEDECONE, TAILOR) 2823 W.
