I was recently married to a vidow with two cluTdren a 16-yca-r-bld daugh ter and a 12-year-old son. I nev er had children of my own, so I . am xery eager to be a father to these youngsters. Everything has worked out well with the boy, who seems to . be very fond of me, but the girl, despite my efforts,, has dis liked me from the start and is getting more and more difficult. I have given Lana many ex pensive gifts, but she has never shrWvn. much gratitude. She has been quite rude at times to both . her mother and me. When I criticised her very gently, she threatened to run away from homa.I can't seem to win her confidence. Mrs. W. H. Lana was ter " a-ibly attached to her father, who died only three years ago. I'm afraid she resented my getting married again. I feel that my . . husband would do best to- leave her entirely to me. Certainly, he should not criticize her. I feel that I.may have made a mis take in marrying- before Lana was ready to accept the idea. Lana L I think my mother made a big mistake" marrying my stepfather. He is a .stuffed hirt, has no sense of humor, like my father had, and con stantly nags both my mother and me.

The tank, described as a con tainer about two feet in diamet er by 10 feet long, was hurled 40 feet into the -side of a derail ed boxcar by the force of the explosion. Warnings Inutd Warnings had been issued that flammables and explosives in the damaged rail can . threatened new blasts while firemen fought the flames and curious specta tors watched. The new blast occurred about 15 hours after a Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad train was rammed by a fuel tanker at a U.S. 20 crossing west of here, setting off an explosion and fire that killed two train crewmen and the truck driver. The dead were train engineer Roy Power. 56; Fireman Har old Johnson, 40, both of Grand Rapids, Mich., and Charley Wil son, 50. Mishawaka, Ind., the truck driver. ' from him. He has no right to criticize me. Th Council: Lana is. indeed. poorly prepared for this mar riage and neither her mother, nor her stepfather, is helping her or themselves. Lana is old enough to be told by her mother certain basic facts of this situation. One is that she has no right to criticize her mother's choice of a husband. Another is that she is endanger ing and poisoning a relationship that is precious to her mother. A third is ihat she has no rea son to expect a replica of her father in the man her mother married. Mrs. W. H. appeaVs to afraid of her daughter and seems to have some sense of guilt about marrying a?ain. Lana plays upon this guilt. Mrs. H. should realize that if she married a man she cares for, she has done the best possible thing for herself and her family, and she should tell this to Lana in no uncertain terms. She must let Lana know that she loves her husband and will tolerate no disrespect of him. Because Mrs. W. H. has been weak in her handling of her daughter, her husband has been forced to take a more active role in this affair than he should at this time. It often takes con siderable time and patience to win a child's confidence under these circumstances. Younger children often respond readily to a smile and a gift, but older ones are apt to be more critical and readily suspect bribery. It is the mother's turn to step in with a firmer hand at this point. Mr. W. H. should show neither coldness to Lana nor overeagerness to win her. He should continue his happy rela tionship with Lana's brother. In time, Lana may gain maturity and understanding and turn to ward him as she would to a father. v (Copyright 1956. . General Feature!

Support Radio Evangelist, Stricken With Bulbar Polio, Believes God Will Provide Cure Dallas, Tex. U.R) A 38-year-old evangelist who preaches faith healing was critically ill with bulbar polio in a hospital today, but his sister is so confi dent he will recover she doubts he needs to be in the hospital. Mrs. Lucille Gaddy of Dal las said her brother, Rev. Jack Coe, believes the spirit of God can heal any sickness of tly; body. "We have absolutely no doubt that God will cure him," she said. "In fact, I do not think he needs to be in the hospital. He is there against his wishes and if he knew where he was, he wpuldn't want to be there." Coe is gravely ill. Besides bul bar polio, he has pnuemonia and a lung abscess. A doctor said he should have come to the hospital sooner. In Miami, Fla., Coe once pro nounced a three-year-old polio victim cured and ordered him to take the braces off his wasted legs. This landed him in court when the child's parents charged that their son suffered much pain as a result. Coe has asked a federal court to dismiss the suit. Coe was arrested in Miami during a revival for practicing medicine without a license. A justice of the peace dismissed the charge. buf ihey soloed to freedom These two escaped but TO million others re main captive behind the Iron Curtain.
