My husband is a gambler. Frank K. I bet for pleasure. Hita K. We have been mar ried for three years and I have been working the entire time. We planned to build up savings for the family we hope to have, but have been unable to do so because of my husband's gam bling. My husand bets eirery extra cent he has on the hprses. When he loses he says he must make up for his losses, but when he wins it goes to his head and he says he must win a bit more so that we'll have something extra to bank. But I'm the only one who ever makes a deposit at the bank. I'm at my wit's end about what to do. My family tells me that marriage to a gambler can't last and I might just as well, for get about having a family. My friends tell me to quit work and see what happens. e Frank K. My wife is trying to make me out a gambler when I'm nothing of the sort. I enjoy racing and following news of racing and I bet just for plea sure. Every man has to have some sort of recreation and this is mine. Rita gets hysterical every time she sees me look at a racing sheet, but she doesn't say any thing about the money she spends on senseless gadgets and costume jewelry. Every day she comes home with another piece of junk that she gets tired of within a week. The truth is that I have made more than I have lost on the horses in the past year. Rita will be sorry for the way she's been acting once she sees me deposit a nice few hundred bucks in the bank. That's more than she'll be able to do out of her silly spend ing. e e The Council Frank claims he gambles for pleasure, but then gives himself away when he tells of his hope to make BURGERBITS Fo7NNrTwice the of Prime Beef 9 BURGERBITS DOG MEAL Now!

February II, 1957 By Jimmy Hatlo something of a killing on the horses. This is the true gambling spirit and Rita is right to be dis tressed about it. It won't help very much to point out to Frank how many unhappy and futile lives have been spent in the quest for a killing on the horses. He un doubtedly has known many of the victims of this dream. He just takes it for granted that he will be one of the lucky ones. The trouble Is that no "lucky" gambler ever calls it quits, and today's winner, almost without exception, becomes tomorrow's loser. If Frank can admit to himself that he has been bitten by the gambling bug, it would be a first step toward helping him self recover from this virus. He should make every effort to find a new kind of recreation that does not dangle the tantalizing hope of easy money. Rita can help her husband, not by scolding or nagging, but by proving he can have more fun at other forms of recreation sports events (at which he does not bet), theater, movie and en tertaining at home. This would be a positive step toward filling his need for amusement. Budgeting is another angle that will help save this mar riage. Frank and Rita should al lot a certain small amount per week for personal fun. If neither of them exceeds this small am ount, they should not question one another as to how it is spent. If Frank spends exactly this am ount on the horses, he could indeed say that he bets for plea sure. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.)
