-- [ANNE HIRST amily Counselor J "Dear Anne Hirst: I'd like to ' "give you my opinion of that flance whose intended wife will continue working after they mar- . ry. He's the one who insists that- CA she 'help 'pay for their. home. "Any husband can suggest that his wife -help "save for 'that, but - to say she must -- well; he's not much of a man. He marries her - to give her a home and provide for her--not for her to help sup- port herself. 1 think a man -is- scheap to expect his wife to con- |' # the home running smoothly. tinue working after marriage. As . ! you say,- he should be proud to support her, not take from her, "And her. clothes? It's all right for her to pay for some of them, but he should provide her with an outfit part of the time. . "My husband doesn't think a a wife should work at all, "He says a home isn't § home unless it is beautiful and clean all the time; then if unexpected uests drop in, you don't have to excuse dust on the furniture." And you know as well as I do, Anne Hirst, you can't keep your house looking like it should, and have "* this questf®n is the fact that a * career girl, or one that has been * successful in business for a * long time, is .nqt content to * settle down as 'a homemaker. * ¢ She has too many talents that -* will-lle fallow, and she would * be restless and bored = with * household routine.

You think it a reflection on- their capa- bilities if she takes an outside job. They can both do without some luxuries and manage to get along on his income. A man's pride is precious to him, and it should not be offended. In many cases today, the two could not possibly live on the man's income.

There are frequent earthquakes along a gradually deepening plane beginning at the bot- tom of the trench and extend- ing - westward toward the Fiji . Islands, Scripps Institution scien- tists on the Capricorn Expedition to the South Pacific recently surveyed the trench.' A delayed "message from Dr. Roger Revelle, leader of the expedition aboard the research vessel Baird, said "Horizon (another research ves- sel) has made a fine survey of ° the Tonga Trench over a length of nearby 1,000 miles. We didn't find . the deepest spot on earth but certainly came pretty close to it. Temperature and water samples in the Tonga Trench down to 25,000 feet show a mark- ed increase of temperature be- low 18,000 feet; a somewhat sim- ilar increase was observed by the Snellius and Galathea Expedition in Mindanao Trench off the Phi- lippines. Seismic runs over the Tonga Trench show the earth's mantle depressed beneath the trench. We are also getting good measurements of the effect of submarine rocks and topography on the local earth's magnetic field." : Crime. For Children .

Partner and 1 remember very rough seas in all these plates but never flooding to any ~-serious- extent. The _ doesn't make the disaster "better or. worse but it always |-- seems-worse when one knows the places that are spoken of. Along the cast coast the sea has been encroaching for years; cliffs have crumbled. into the sea, houses have had to be demolished or moved back for safety; now this 'terrible tidal wave will weaken still further the seawall defences of many a coastal town. Someone said to me -- "Well, I don't suppose people who have lived. in those places will ever want to go back again." Oh, but they will: In time, when the de- bris has been removed, and the immediate - danger has ypesied 'the people of East Anglia will return and build thelr 'homes anew. Inconveniences, to Eng- _lish country folk, are always re- garded as of a 'temporary na- ture. Near our home, 'on the banks of the River Stour, there were many cottages. Every spring. the Stour would overflow its banks. Every spring these cot- tages would be flooded and peo- ple rescued by boat from the bedrooms. And every spring, as soon as the floods had subsided, these people would return to their river-washed homes.. Yes, the English are a stubborn race. Happily, all news {ast week wonder how many people thrilled with delight as the' Captain, without the "aid _ of tugs, docked the mighty Queen Mary at New York harbour.

Until relatives came to the rescue, he and his wife had to sleep on bare floor- boards. Maries lived to see others. reap. the fruits of an invention similar to his casein formula. His failure broke his health, It 'so often happens. Not long ago Walt Disney was decorated with the Legion of Honour at.a stately French Embassy gather- ing, and in his' speech of thanks he mentioned the animated car- toons _had 'been invented by a Frenchman, Emile Cohl. What Disney didn't know was that -€ohl was still living--on a Dpit- tance of seven shillings a week relief! Strangely enough, the discov | ery of Emile Cohl's plight turned up another old- -timer, who was found lying ill and in need in a_ flat only a' street or two away. Francis Michaux 'invented -the bicycle - pedal. Ultimately the French Cyclists' Touring Club had to open a subscription fund on his behalf.
