BY CYNTHIA GREY Dear Miss Grey: This letter may sound a bit strange, but I am sincere and dead in earnest, I am 26 years old and have been married over six years, What I desire is to make my marriage a success. However, jit is taking on the aspect of a failure, and I’d like your advice. to blame. |dreamer, and I live on my I don’t mind admitting that no doubt I am the one most In the first place, I am discontented.

It seems to me that I never have any fun like other peo- It just seems like I want to get out and be free again and have a lot of real fun like I used to when I was a girl. I have to be an old woman when I don’t want to, as my to live and what might have Still, I am really very any other man, as so many I do not even know any other My husband is good to me and I realize that I have much |to be grateful for, and in turn have really tried to be a ing my husband, says I am a dream of how discontented I 9 never seems to feel the least Sometimes when my younger sister comes to see us, we just play like two kids and then I forget for awhile my marriage yoke; but soon I see my husband look- ing at me as tho I were crazy, so I become sober and seri- ous and an old married woman once more. I long to dance and sing and play; but I can’t, as my husband doesn’t do any of those things. Once I was asked by a friend how or why I was atracted to such a man and I could not answer, as I don't know. But I surely adored him when we were married. And I wonder now where all of that great, passionate love has gone— My husband is seven years my sen- jor and we have no children of our own; but we have an adopted daugh- ter 3 years old. I know my hushand doesn’t dream lof me being anything but perfectly | happy as I have carefully hid it from him, for I could not bear to burt him. That's why I'm writing to you for |advice so that he need never know and we can be happy as most people think we are now. Sincerely, DISCONTENTED. One who merely dreams is apt to become discontented, because dreams alone do not bring results. ‘‘Do noble deeds, not dream them all day long" There's more truth than poetry in that little verse. Perhaps you misunderstand your husband utterly, when you believe he misunderstands you.You say he looks at you as tho you were crazy when you are In a happy mood—Isn’t it pos- sible that he admires your youth and spontaneity? Your ‘marriage yoke” I fear Is more or lesq imaginary—a_ morbib fancy brought about by too much day-dreaming. Suppose you try listen- ing Just once, attentively, when your {husband talks to you, and then at- tempt to become interested in some of the things that occupy his mind. And there's no real reason why you should not dance and sing and |play, even tho your husband doesn’t. Haven't you any sort of musical in- | strument? If not, friend hubby would | surely get one. Little daughter will |soon be old enough to learn to sing and dance, and just think what fun you can have teaching her? No woman of today needs be “an old married woman’? unless she choses—That's merely a state of mind. Think it over, young woman, eee Egg-shell Race Dear Miss Grey: Will you please tell me how to play some game with Easter oggs for an Easter party? BETTY. An cgg-shell race is lots of fun.

I have this reader’s name, ad- dress and telephone number if any- one knows of a baby who is seek- ing such a home. eee Chances Are He Never Struggled With Hairpins Dear Miss Grey: The letter from “A Man Who Thinks,” in Monday's Star, was about the silliest thing I ever read, How can a man that never hat struggled with a mop of hair, hair pins and hair nets feel qualified to say that a woman shouldn't cut her hair. I have just had mine bobbed, and I never was so comfortable before. His statement that all bobbed. haired women swear and smoke {s certainly absurd. I wonder where the gentleman spends his leisure time? As to a woman working like &@ man, if she does, should that be considered a disgrace? I do considerable work outside for the pleasure I get out of it and it hasn't made me any less femi- nine as I can see. One sure thing, If I am using @ rake or a hoe I have neither to- bacco nor cigarets in my pockets to help me get my work done, Before closing, I'd like to ask this “thinking” gentleman to sit down and imagine how his head would feel with two feet of heavy halr fastened to it, 85 hairpins stuck in the hair anda hair net outside of it. If he can tmagine as hard ho thinks he will most likely get a different idea about bobbed mt I have only one regret and nat 8 that I didn't haye my long ago. REDHEAD.
