The first half of Mr. Curtis' concert was devoted to folk runes from England, Scotland and Ireland and also included some Angle-American songs. These are songs that are known, in one form or another, in near ly every country in the world. Of particular interest to fes tival patrons was the selection of American folk songs which made up the second half of the concert, songs which evolved from man's daily labors and which have come down to us from generation to generation. The final section of the program vas appropriately designated simply as "More Songs," and included American and Anglo American tunes. The audience of nearly 200 was appreciative of this presen tation of folk music, and "re quested" three encores of Mr. Curtis. This concert of British and American folk music was spon sored by the Tudor guild of the Festival Association, and pro ceeds go to the guild scholarship fund, and actor's benefit fund. Kitchen Color!

These consult with clergymen oi all faltis and denominations. All letters are held in complete confidence- Susan I fear for my girl's morals. Lucy I am not a hypocrite. SUSAN W. I cannot under stand mv daughter's behavior with boys; I am very fearful for her morals and her future and I cannot begin to think out a solution to the problem. ' Here are some of the symp toms: When she knows a young man is to call, instead of taking a shower and getting into a pretty dress, she insists on wearing a toiled housecoat. She will sit on the floor between a boy's knees, and unti his shoeslaces or roll up his trouser legs. She never comes home on time when she goes out with a young man, and she usually stays out at least a few hours later than she should. I never insist that she come home early, but will volunteer to come home a a certain hour and then, in variably come home hours later. I once read a letter that lay on the table opened. It was from a soldier and it very plainly told me that she had been in timate with him while away in college. I have repeatedly found her in suggestive situations "on the porch of our home. How do I go about taking her in hand? LUCY My mother has noth ing to worry about. I am no different from most of the girls I know, certainly not worse. I intend to marry a good man and raise a good family. In the meantime, I intend to enjoy normal relationships. I know just what I am doing. I am not weak, I am not being taken advantage of, I am not cheap and I am not hyprocritical. THE COUNCIL: Lucy evid ently has either lacked suf ficient education in morality or i has been mis-educated as to sex. There seems to be no doubt that the mother's suspicious and fears are well-founded. Lucy is quite glib in saying that she will find a good man and raise a good family. Lack of moral self-restraint will often spoil the capactity of a woman to be a good wife and mother. What to do about it?. A fool proof solution can hardly be promised in any situation, and this one seems to have deter iorated quite far. A real and sustained effort should, however, be made by the mother. She should speak frankly to this girl and she should first lay the basis for a frank dis cussion of the girl's personal life by telling her the facts of her own life. Lucy must be made to realize that her mother is rot an emotionless person far removed from her, but someone who has lived through all the feelings that now pre-occupy her. The mother should tell Lucy what she suspects and what she fears. Lucy may flare up in resentment; she may even decide to leave home; or she may be come so defiant and brazen as to impel the mother to break with her. The risk is great, but the danger is greater. Lucy has arrived at her pre sent recklessly glib attitude largely because she has taken her mother for granted as a per son of a past generation who is unaware of current ways and values. That false impression must be quickly corrected. (COPYRIGHT 1956. GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) mm: ROTARY FOOD MILL $3.75 A family size food mill that mashes, rices, strains all cooked foods.
