Answers Your Problems
Dear (leaders: Recently I was
reminded of tbat childhood song
"Ten thousand Swedes came out
oi tax weeds
I feel-as if I've been clobbered-
by at east that many, as a result
of my'Hmarks ort the' "Swedish
system .
' Whe a.. reader criticized my
'"anliqaoted sense ot morals" and
suggested we pattern our attitudes
towardMe after Sweden's, I point
ed out that the divorce rate in
Sweden may be lower than ours,
but the percentage of out-of-wedlock
babies and suicides make up
for it.'
The 'wrath among my Swedish
readers' packed a wallop that might
explain the mystery of Ingemar's
right hand.
One of the less vitriolic readers
gave eitfnteresting explanation for
the high suicide rate in Sweden.
Here it is: '
Deerlfcm: The suicide rate in
Swedeiftg high, but there's a rea
son. mvweden suicide doesn't
carry tp's1igma of cowardice as
in America. Perhaps this can b?
traced back to the tenth century.
It was a disgrace to go to Val
halla from a sickbed. The Vikings
built Temple Gardens into which
they jumped when they had no
chance-fudie on the battlefield.
In Gastfikland, Sweden, there Is
still in existence such 'a garden.
Every year a surprising number
ot people are lured to this ancient
place. The hollow below is very
deep so that a jump is truly effec
tive. A Larson.

me; just tell me what to do. For
two years I went with what I
thought was the most wonderful
man in the world. We were plan
ning to marry when his divorce
came through.
We were very much in love when
I became pregnant. Then his love
turned to hate. Our daughter is
now seven months old and he
treats us like dirt. He says he'll
support us so long as we stay with
him but I don't think I can stand
if - much longer. He's a heavy
drinker and he's mean when he
drinks.
I'm a nurse and can get work
any time, but I don't want to
leave the baby in someone else's
care. He calls me a scheming
witch and says it's my fault that
things are such a mess. I hate the
sight of him, but I feel trapped.
What is the sensible thing to do?
-vMwrph.
Dear Murph: Move out of that
snake pit and go to work. Not
inly will it give you a fresh
outlook but it will be better for
the baby. If no good for a
child to be penned up night and
day with a miserable, unhappy
mother who hatoe the man she's
living with. In some states the
father has finsncial responsi
bilities, whether he's married to
the mother or net. Check with a
lawyer, and get packing.
Dear Ann: Should a 12-year-old
boy be forced to eat when he has
a headache or has just been scold
ed by his father? Please answer
in the paper. This is important.
Buxiie.
Dear Buizie: No person (re
gardless of age) should be forced
to eat at any time, for whatever
reason. When a person is emo
tionally upset the stomach is in
no condition to receive food.
Children who are forced to oat
sometimes develop stomach
trouble as well as a life-long
loathing far certain food.
