Thursday, Oct. i, ism (Sec. 2) Rush Period Ends At University LETTERS TO GWEN Dear Gwen, My boy, 19, has come home from his stint in the Army and we thought he was signing up for college, but lo’ he intends to mar ry a neighbor girl, and go to work. His mother and I are heartsick, and not because the girl isn’t a lovely girl, but because like all parents we thought college would give him the start in life neither of us was fortunate enough to have. We have talked in vain, what can you say. Perplexed-Dad and Mom Dear Perplexed Mom and Dad, I am for education. Perhaps these two will listen to a con ference of all four parents on waiting a bit longer. Or if not, can the two sets of parents sub sidize the children ‘till both are educated, and when earning enough pay you back in a small amount per month with no interest charge, I am for two young folks start ing out marriage together, pro viding it is real devotion. to help folks In the middle brackets, as well as the other. Especially the ones who have no young folks to assist in any way. It is frighten ing to grow old with no security for emergencies. Dear Gwen, Do you make up your own letters or are they for real. Interested Reader Dear Interested Reader, I print the letters you send in, and if enough haven’t arrived in time I get permission and use cases that are for real. So send your problem In.

She is lovely, In telligent, very popular, but we notice a tendency toward complete selfishness. She’s not mean, loves all her pets, but is lazy about taking care of them, and toward her other chores. The two older children didn’t have this streak. Will she out grow this or what can we do about it? Concerned-Mother Dear Concerned-Mother, Well, I sometimes think grow ing causes this lack of responsi bility. See that she eats plenty of good sensible food, not just ham burgers, and check with your doc tor to see there is nothing phy sically wrong. Then, if she fails in her duties just delete her favorite TV pro gram for a time. I think that will wake her up. AND NOW AFTER 18 MONTHS We Have A 'Home Again ! Dear Gwen, My five-year-old nephew came to visit. I am shocked beyond be lief. He swears, and good lusty words. I took it up immediately with his parents, only to hear them say, that ignoring It was the an swer to the cure, and that they had it from their child’s doctor- Are they correct? Stunned Aunt. Dear Stunned Aunt, It seems if you ignore the sit uation the young man not only finally quits, he is not left with the memory of it. I admit, I’d find it hard not to be upset too.
