My son, Allen, is very bitter toward me because I dis suaded him from marrying a girl Decause she suffered from a ter rible disease. She has since died from this disease, and Allen feels he betrayed her in not marrying ner. A a father, I could not allow Allen to be carried away by sen timent and possibly doom child ren to tragedy. The girl was very pretty and I could understand a susceptible young man being madly In love with her, but I felt that it was my duty to save my son from such a marriaee felt that a person in that condi tion should not marry at all.

FLOUR' n a SAFEWAY STORE Council marr,ied, bijt I sometimes think that it might have worked out differently. When I. stopped see ing her under pressure from my father, she must have guessed the reason and it must have been a terrible blow to her. My father did not limit him self to reason and persuasion. He held over my head the fact that he was' providing for my future and that he would do no thing for me if I crossed his wishes. I knew that I could not support a wife, let alone a sick one, without help and I there fore had to obey his orders. . Assuming that Martha would now be dead if we had married, I fail to understarfd why we conJd not have enjoyed hap piness for as long as it was pos sible. I feel as though a crime was committed and I cannot for give my father the fact that he compelled me to agree to that crime. The Council: Allen has rot thought this situation out clear ly. His bitterness has not been earned by his father, but is the product of his tortured con science. ' Why did Allen, if he loved Martha dearly, abandon her to the point where she had to "guess" the reason he was not seeing her any longer? It would have been much kinder if he had told her the truth about his fath er s position and had continued seeing her and giving her his companionship. Martha would not have been crushed by the truth, because she knew of her condition and probably did not want to marry. But she should have had the steadfast friend ship of the man who professed to love her, and this Allen denied her because he was incapable of loving her without possessing Tier.' Allen's father had every right and duty to oppose such a mar riage, and he should not now be blamed in bitterness for Allen's Wednesday, May II, list STAR -By CLAY s93 Acres MAR. 22 K Vow Dorfy AchVfrf Guide M According to th Stars.

Allen seems to be a self-centered young man, quick to accuse and slow to realize his own short comings. He is now being as sel fish and unfair toward his father as he was toward ' Martha, and the father does himself an in justice in seriously entertaining his son's unwarranted and brutal accusation. (Copyright 1956. General Features Corp.) Monte Carlo, Symbol of Wealth, Has Money Pinch Washington Financial re verses that sometimes beset the largest nations can also pinch Monaco, the second smallest, where Monte Carlo traditionally symbolizes flowing wealth. Ordinarily, financial affairs tie easily together in the 370-acre state on the blue Ligurain Sea by the French Riviera. Larger only than the Vatican City among the world's nations, Mon aco functions on tobacco taxes, postage stamp sales, and fees from Monte Carlo's casino and its gambling concession. But this year there was a run on the pocket principality s big gest bank. Hurried government assistance failed to save the Monte' Carlo Banking and Pre- ious Metals Society. It shut its doors, and with it fell four cab inet ministers. No Gambling, Mo Income Tax Monte Carlo's ornate salons of chance by law may not be pa- tronized by citizens of Monaco. Numbering only 2,000 in a cos mopolitan population of 23,000, they may work in Mone Carlo's gambling rooms, hotels and re sorts, but they are not permitted to gamble. In return, Monacans pay no income tax. Monaco as a vacation spot is world renowned for its setting near the sun-drenched foothills of the Maritime Alps, dotted by pastel-hued villas.

Washington, D. C. Parakeet Seen Omen By Men in Death Row Chicago UJD A parakeet joined the prisoners in Cook county jail s death row Tuesday. He flew through a window into the cell block housing 10 condemned men and perched on the shoulder of Vincent Ciueei,' convicted killer of his wife and children. The men awaiting death were convinced the blue parakeet would bring - them, good luek when, a short time later, stays of execution were granted to two men scheduled to die this week-end. Is That So? Definitions from a ranger's notebook: A camp fire is your pal, any day, any time; and whenever you need him, he's right there. He laughs when he blacks your pott, smokes up your face, and does the best work for you when yoieput him. in a rock-lined hole. A frying'.pan is your cooking kit,-your pot, your baking pan, and its prime excuse is to flip your hot cakes. A pack-horse wrangler . says as he fries his bannock, "When it's smoking, it's cooking; when it's burnt, it's done. An ax is a tool which means a fellow - can make a fire, build a cabin, throw, together a spruce bough bed, or, if he's lucky, hack up a side of venison. A fisherman swears a deer is a misplaced trout which has grown bwn hair and lives on land. He's sly faster'n a streak when he lays his polished horns flat on. his back and, nose straight ahead, tears through the brush and bounds- over - wind falls six feet high with one hand in his pocket. Even , his meat combines sweetness and wild ness. V Prunes are grub you chew on the trail fjth jerked venison or chocolate. Ferns-decorate. Water-ouzels., are teeter - tails. They bounce up and down on a rock and build their nests in the soft spray, of a cool waterfall. They fly underwater for twenty feet and always stay dry. Their scummy, bleary, eyelids make them lookesdrunk. Try MaYs Soul Old John Doumitt swears that fish -ducks are the same as mos quitoes. "They're deadbeat that try a man's soul." I shot a fish duck once that carried a 7-inch cut-throat trout in him. They eat their own, weight of finger ling trout in a day! .

Man, I like sweet venison and roasted blue grouse! Take a hindquarter of venison and let it hang over hot coals all night; put a chunk of bacon about the size of your two fists on top and let the grease drip into the slashed sides. There's nothing like it except more venison. , Tin Pants Necessity Tin pants aren't a formality; they're a necessity. They're can vas, built double and heavy, so that the brush doesn't rake your hide. They're stagged and have frayed frills on the bottoms, the same as old-fashioned petticoats. A stag shirt has its tails bob bed. It hangs outside so that the needles which fall down your back pass right through and the water drains outside of your pants' legs.
