He's a doctor in another state. He doesn't answer my letters and Won't talk when I call him. I lovf him so much, and it breaka my heart when he doesn't tell me what I have done to make him unhappy.' We were always a hippy, close family. 1 pray for him day and night. , . A. Perhaps your best strategy might be not to write or call your son. Just love him in absentia and pray for him. Could be you have over-mama'd him and he is rejecting it. As long as he won't tell you why he reacts with silence, try to figure it out for yourself. Then surprise him by becoming a different sort of mother. Perhaps you will find help in our booklet, Help Yourself With God's Help, which is on ita way to you.

I read with interest and concern your response to a woman whose husband had beaten her severely. Your suggestion of ways she could become a "different kind of person" ignores the very real danger of her situation. Statistics show that beatings of a spouse tend to increase in both frequency and severity as time goes on. All too often this spiral of violence ends in murder. In order to break the cycle of violence the victim must take concrete steps to communicate to her husband that she will no longer accept violent behavior. A shelter or sanctuary with friends can make it possibly for her to be safe until her husband makes a commitment and begins to change. If, after the violence has ' stopped, both partners are committed to making the marriage work, personal change and marriage counseling can be very effective. 1 Information about shelters and hot-lines can be obtained by contacting the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, c-o Cynthia Dames, NCADV, P.O.

Although we feel our answer was appropriate As far as it went, yours takes it further in a very practical and helpful manner. Thank you for your concern and for putting that concern in action. Did He Do Wroag? , Q. Two years ago my wife and I were divorced. I have since been remarried to the most wonderful and understanding person you ever saw. Her man left her for another woman. We get along wonderful and I'm happier than I thought I could ever be. My teenage kids are crazy about my wife. She is more a mother to. them than their own mother. My stepson worships me, and I love him as my own; We are both dedicated church members. Did I do wrong to try to make a new life for myself? Are we supposed to go on together? A. The reservations you now have should have been faced before you married a second time. Now that you have a happy marriage and a happy home is not time to let any guilt feelings disturb the situation. If you feel you did anything wrong, ask God to forgive you, forgive yourself, and leave it all in God's hands. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale to discuss in this column, write to them in care of Box 500, Pawling, N.Y. 12564.

FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of August l, 1929) Demand for lots in "Shalimar", Fox river's super subdivision located one mile north of McHenry, has in­ creased to such an extent during the summer season this year that there are now but 15 available lots for sale at this time. This subdivision is one of the most beautiful along the Fox river, being formerly the Streuh sanitarium grounds. The annual ball in honor of Commodore and Mrs. Frank E.

FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of August 10, 1939) ; , Perhaps of greatest interest in the August meeting of the City Council was their decision to assist the property holders in building new sidewalks. The need of new walks in certain sections has been recognized for several years. However the expense involved has seemed too much for many property holders to assume. Last year it was hoped that WPA assistance could be secured, but the project never took form. The council has decided to pay 5 cents per running foot on 4-foot sidewalks approved by the committee. Property holders desiring to make such im­ provements should make ap­ plication in the clerk's office. Much interest and ex­ citement abounds at the local tennis courts as play started to determine the winners of the Lions club trophies. Fourteen girls and fifteen men entered their respective tournaments and some of the first round matches have already been played off. McHenry has always ^ruiiked with towns many times its size in this sport and it is hoped that by these annual tournaments this fine brand of tennis may continue to be played. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of August 5, 1954) The City Council took an important step in a program which will eventually result in enlargement of the present sewage disposal plant by en­ tering into an agreement with the Ballman and Main bonding firm for a complete study of ways to f inance the im­ provement. Since the present plant has reached its capacity, the city is not permitted to allow further extensions. This brings about a problem since certain sections in the city now wish to extend the mains for sewer service and new sub- WSvenWooda with a hand-loomed looks Stale Ends Aug. 24th The Joanna Classic Collection of Woven Woods is the perfect way to satisfy today's decorating needs.

Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family^ Service and Community Mental Health Center staff. This ar­ ticle is "Coping - Suddenly Single") One of the most profound changes that takes place following a divorce is the change to being "single" once again. If a couple has been married for a long period of lime, the adjustment to a completely different social life can be extremely difficult. Immediately following a divorce, old friends (most likely married friends) usually provide a great deal of support a n d - e n c o u r a g e m e n t . Gradually, however, it becomes evident to both the divorced person and the friends that the situation has changed drastically and they no longer have great deal "in common". Going out to dinner, visiting friends in their home or taking a vacation together were things that were always done as a couple. After the divorce (he social life of each has changed; at some point this must be accepted. What makes it dif­ ficult to accept is the fact that the divorced person needs friends and social contacts. Also, the message from friends is usually that ihey will remain friends and that nothing has changed as far as they are concerned.

At the same time, however, it is necessary to start cultivating new friends and new social outlets. Single parent groups and other groups for divorced persons can provide both a support and a stimulating Social life for the newly divorced person. When the time comes that the "honeymoon" period is over and old friends start drifting away, the new relationships take on a great importance. One of the most common and hurtful mistakes that newly divorced people make is to make a firm decision that despite the loss of the spouse, life is going to go on exactly as it was during the marriage.
