Bl liked Ll millions flS&fOLI J 8 i I I 13 r H Adopted stopped at an orphanage one day to visit my cousin, a matron there. When I returned to the sitting room where my husband was waiting, I saw a four-year-old, red headed, freckle-faced boy on his knee. The boy was saying. "Is that your car out there?" My husband said, "Yes." "Do you have a watch?" "Yes," and my husband showed him his watch and chain. "Do you have a dog at your house?" "Yes," my husband said, grinning, "and he loves boys." "Then I'm going home with you" said the redhead. "I've 'dopted you!" And he did! Our son is now a grown man with a family of his own, and we've always been proud that he adopted us! Mrs. Joe Duncan, Port Arthur, Tex. ONE WOMAN'S CAMPAIGN. I am a reporter for a Mojave Desert newspaper that recently began a cam paign to fill up abandoned holes left by long-ago prospectors. During "the campaign the work of one woman came to our attention. She lives in a so-called ghost town, a tourist attraction where motorists stop and allow their children to scamper over the ruins. Realizing the danger of these holes, she's been filling them up, without fanfare or even hope of suc cess; there must be thousands of them in the area. But one woman can't do it alone. Wouldn't it be nice if we had laws that could force property owners to fill them in or, for certain offenses like littering the highways, if judges would sentence violators to fill up so many of them?

Address Letters Editor, Family Weekly, 179 North Michigan Avenue, Chicago 1, 111. 0 . . . the woman crept upstairs to a silent apartment and sobbed. If she had not been alone, she might have smiled instead. The adolescent bride cried at her wedding and the child cried because mother saw her fall on the sidewalk. In the night a woman cries the tears of disappointment and a teen-ager sobs over a tragic love story. The rails of the track glisten with tears of welcome and pangs of departure. A man dies at dawn in a hospital and the nurse he married wipes away his agony and hers. It has been a long time since I cried in sorrow, but seldom that I do not cry in laughter. It is good to weep, to unleash the heart and restore the mind to calm. There is a benison in allowing the rain of the mind's pain to course the cheeks. The first time I saw a man's tears, I felt shame for him and embarrassment for myself. Perhaps the memory has lingered because he was weak and cried more easily than I. But since that day I have learned that a man has as great a right to tears as a woman and perhaps earns them more. It is the harsh judgment of custom which denies them and they must therefore be the more painful. I place too great a value on my tears of sorrow. I begrudge each one I give the world and so I thrust them down and inward and deny them. And myself. There is always time for laughter. It is the birthright of man's joy and exultation. Laughter is the gift without which happiness is solemn and delight is mute. But there is also a time for tears. God gave us the brilliant courage of our laughter. He gave us also the right to weep. Laughter is the heart's music. Tears are the sweet oint ment of the soul. FAMILY WEEKLY, 179 N. Michigan Ave., Chicago I, III. Leonard S. Davidow, Publisher- Walter C.
