READY, WILLING AND ABLE. V DEAR READY, ‘WILLING AND ABLE—Maybe you should give her a .little more time—six months to a year—to change her mind. Then If, at the end of that time, she still seems to be holding out strongly against matrimony, the only sensible and logical thing for you to do is bow out and look elsewhere for another woman to share your life. * * * DEAR SALLY — I recently lost my boy friend to anothel- girl. She hag a terrible repu tation, but she had no trouble in stealing him and he* seems to like her a lot. He and I went steady for over six months, and he was the most wonderful fel low until he fell for this un principled girl. Now he’s alto gether different — drinks too much, ?cts wild, and he has even been in a couple of ’scrapes with the police. I’ve tried to comer' him at school sevteral times, but he’s even very rude and has even walked away from me in the middle of a conversation. Is there any thing at all I can do to get him back? HEARTBROKEN. DEAR HEARTBROKEN — I cannot for the life of me figure out WHY you want him back— the kind of fellow who was so easily lured away from you, the kind of fellow who drinks too much, the kind of fellow who runs afoul with the law, the kind of fellow who is rude to you! My advice to you is to be forever thankful that you are well rid of him! km DEAR SALLY—I’m a man of 56, have been a widower for seven years, have two children who are both married, and I live alone in an apartment and hate it. There’s nothng I’d like more in the world than to be living again in a real bona fide home and enjoying the compan- ioship of a good woman. There is one woman in the picture, a widow of 49, whom I have been dating and whom I’d like to marry. Everything seems to be harmonious between us, except her desire to remarry. She ad mits that she is fond of me, but that since her first marriage was not very happy, she is en joying her freedom now and doesn’t like the idea of giving it up and take on the "trials of marriage” again. She has been widowed only a little over a year. Do you think I should GORDON'S SHOES FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY FINAL! California Cobblers — Citations , Red Cross *5.00 DEAR SALLY — I’m very happy over the fact that I am an "expectant grandmother.” A relative has suggested that I give a stork shower for my daughter, but I have vetoed the idea for two reasons. In the first place it’s improper for me to give such a party for my own daughter — and secondly, there’s an “impractical” side to such a stork shower before the baby arrives, simply be cause this would be taking too much for granted, since there’s always the chance of something going wrong. I realize this isn’t a very cheerful or optimistic way of looking at it, but don’t you think I’m right? MOM. DEAR MOM — You’re right with reason No. 1. No kind of shower should ever be given by a member of the immediate family, since this could be look ed upon as a means of solicit ing gifts. However, I certainly do NOT go along with you on reason No. 2. It’s customary and perfectly proper to give stork showers before the bless ed event, because we want to share the joy and happiness of the expectant mother, and we should align ourselves with her in looking for only the best and the good in life. • * * DEAR SALLY — Recently, while my wife and I were being entertained at a bridge party in a friend’s home, our host pulled out a handful of tickets and asked all us guests if we would like to buy chances on a color television set his church was raffling, off. This seemed very presumptuous to me. After all, what could we do? Being guests in this man’s home, we were compelled to buy thgsc raffle tickets. Don’t you agree that this was poor taste on tty? part of our host? VICTIMIZED. DEAR VICTIMIZED — No, I can’t see anything at all wrong with your host’s working for the benefit of his church. If you were not at all interested in making a contrbiution, It was your privilege to say "no.” EVERYDAY COUNSELOR By Bishop Herbert Spaugh Noise does not spell power any more than motion indicates prog ress. Steam locomotives fast are becoming a thing of the past to the sorrow of many of us who are rail fans. The diesel loco motive with its greater economy has gradually replaced the old smoke - belching, noisy Iron Horse. The steam locomotive gave a noise in demonstration of power, but the quieter, much more effi cient diesel is rapidly taking its place. Many children today have never seen a steam loco motive. , There are people who seem to think they should be heard. They try to demonstrate power by noise. Many do it with the auto mobile horn. Others try to give an impression with much loud talk, even profanity and anger. The other day I read a humer- ous story illustrative of this. An old Indian was being tried for bootlegging. In response to the questions by the district attorney and the judge, he only shook his head. Finally the judge said, "He doesn’t seem to understand anything we say. Probably he doesn’t even understand the charge againsthim.” So he dis missed the case. m i 9 M % . % ill m cart makes the most noise.” The Bible in Ecclesiastes warns, "Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth; therefore let thy words be few.” I heard it put another way the other day, “Put your mind in gear before you opeh your mouth.” Even though the chugging and puffing steam locomotive has gone, the chugging and puffing human being is still with us. Would that we could learn to Improve the machine. There is another side to thi* explosive talk which Is presented in these lines of an old poem: “Boys flying kites haul In l , white wingeobirds. You can’t do that when you’r flying words. Thoughts unsaid often fall ba^k dead. But God Himself can’t unsay them after they’re said.” i OFFICE SUPPLIES CHRONICLE PUB. CO. PHONE 8334541 Joanna Man Gets Big One Ansel Johnson of 117 N. Marion Street, Joanna, is pictured holding the 221/2 pound rock bass which he caught January 18 while fishing in water behind^the dam on Lake Greenwood. Mr. Johnson made the catch with a rod and reel on which he had used bucktail as bait. • ; Next a white man was brought in and charged with the same offense. The attorney pled elo quently for mercy, but the judge was unmoved and the defendant was sentenced to prison. The old Indian who had re mained in the court room fol lowed the crestfallen lawyer out into the hall. Quietly he fell in step with him and said, "White man talk too much.” There is an old proverb that says, "The poorest wheel on the ‘I ' V. SAID IT - BEFORE AND I’LL SAY IT AGAIN” ...
