We realize that Evelyn is still
young and entitled to marry

that situation, perhaps he will
also finci it difficult to accept a

of the complications if Evelyn

The Council Evelyn made an
initial mistake in deciding to
make her home permanently
with her in-laws after her hus
band's death. She should have
maintained close relations with
them, but should have made it
clear she would have her own
home as soon as circumstances
permitted.
The invitation to the suitor to
join the family of the in-laws
may be entirely sincere, but it is
rather preposterous. The future
marriage would have a better
prospect if Evelyn were already
maintaining her own home. As
long as the boy is cared by the
grandmother, this man will nev
er find out whether he is reallv
willing to become the bov's
father.
The present setting is simnlv

they can best help now by as

would serve better to earn her
continued gratitude and to keep
close ties with the grandson than
any bitterly controversial atti
tude. Mr. B.S.K's course would
either prevent the marriage
from taking place or probably
doom it to failure. In either case,
all concerned would be hurt, the
grandson probably most of all.

Phillips was their father.
The three sued Phillips, charg
ing that he fraudently persuaded
them to sign waivers to their
rights to the estate of their late
mother, C o r r i n e I. Phillips

They grew up thinking they
were Phillips' children, but dis

was Carl F. Wilske of Illinois.
