Our 23-year-old daughter wants to marry a man of 40. Lorraine R. He really under stands:me. Mrs.' D. R. My husband and I are .desperate about our 23-year-old daughter, who has fall en in love with a man of 40. Lorraine is a very pretty girl and has been very popular ever since she was a bobby-soxer. Several nice young men have wanted to marry her, but she al ways said she had time. Now suddenly she is in a great hurry to marry. This man is a widower with two children, aged 8 and 10, and I feel he is in a hurry to find a good mother for his children. Lorraine is mature for her age, loves children and is a good homemaker, and I believe her sympathy for this man and his children is running away with her. I keep pointing out to her that when she is a young wom an of 30. she will be married to a middle-aged man. Lorraine It's true that I have a lot of sympathy for Alfred and his children, but it's not the main reason why I want to mar ry him. It's also true that he is looking for a good mother for his children, but I'm sure he could find better, more experi enced women for the purpose if that was all he wanted. The fact is that I feel Alfred CALENDAR Calendar nttlces and news for the society section of The Mail Tribune muM be submitted in writing and deadline for the Sun day edi'ion is 1 D.m Friday Dead line for the weekly calendar is 9 .m of the day of publication and for week da news is 5 D-m the day before publication.

Everyone takes me for a giddy girl because I am always clowning and carrying on in company, but I am really very serious at heart I am also very religious and so is Alfred. Many young men can't understand why religion is so important to me. They laugh at me when 1 try to talk seriously. The Council: Nearly 20 years is a vast age gap and such a marriage presents grave prob lems. Nevertheless it need not be the cause for parental despera tion if the man is desirable in other respects. Mrs. D. F. acknowledges that her daughter Is mature and has had much dating and social ex perience. It is possible that this marriage is the answer to many of the girl's inner needs. Some of the questions Lor raine and her parents should try to resolve are these: Has Lorraine made an active attempt to meet young men with her religious interests? There are many of them and Lorraine could be much more sure of fu ture happiness with a man closer to her own age. She is wrong when she feels that no man can understand her. Seeking Responsibility Does Lorraine fully under stand the enormous responsibil ity she would be undertaking in becoming a mother, at her age, to two children who have been raised by a different woman? She appears to be seeking re sponsibility, but does she realize how much will be required? She must understand that she will have to settle down to her duties at once and forego the first pre cious period of marriage in which the young couple can be come adjusted to one another, free from outside care or intru sion. It's a big sacrifice. How does Lorraine fit in so- cially with friends of her hus band's age? She will probably find she must give up many of her young friends because her husband will find them too im mature. Why does Alfred choose a woman so much his junior? Is he the overdomineering type who feels it would be easy to bend a young girl to his ways? He is undoubtedly set in many of his patterns of living and Lor raine should know what those patterns are and determine whether or not she can live with in them. These questions call for seri ous, unhurried consideration. Lorraine should not commit her self without having explored all the angles carefully and dis cussed them with her parents. (Copyright 1957.

Perhaps some enterpris ing fellow should revive, in phonograph recording form, that hit of George M. Cohan's titled "Mary Is a Grand Old Name." Not so long ago in Racine, Wis., four brothers named Smith each married a girl named Mary. Mink Have heard of a woman who was presented with a mink coat and then found that every time she wore it she broke out in a rash. She is allergic to mink. However, the acquisition of a mink coat was one of her great ambitions. She is determined to wear it. So every time she plans to wear it she takes injections which prevent her suffering from allergy. In what position has a young woman the best chance of meet ing and marrying a million aire? Our Horses and Women experts maintain it is that of a stewardess on a transatlantic plane. A recent substantiation of this claim is the case of 27-year-old airline stewardess, Jane Murchison, who met 46-year-old Richard Baird on a transatlantic flight and married him shortly after. Mr. Baird is a millionaire owner of diamond and gold mines in South Africa. Jane now has much diamond jewelry, plenty of mink coats and stoles, a Rolls-Royce automobile and three homes. A country home near Newmarket, England,- a luxury flat in London and a farm in South Africa. It is inter esting to note that though 27 years old when she wed, this is Jane's first marriage. She wait ed for the right man and he finally came along. Queries from clients. Q. Are you familiar with paintings RUG and Upholstery CLEANER 95c up Dirty uphol stery?

The value of the violins you refer to varies great ly. Some are worth S60,000 or more and some much less. Not so long ago in London a genuine Stradivarius tviolin, of the Grand Pattern, manufactured in 1711, sold for $7,500. Women with well streamlined limbs are plentiful.
