(EeiP P-Harriet shouldn't break up her marriage. Hr8 S. Anything would oe Dener tnan tni. Qgjll F. My sister is about to break ua a marriage of ten years and I feel she is making a big mistake, especially in view of the fact ftiat she has four small children. I know Harriet's husband is a very hard man to get along with. He gives her a terribly small allowance every week Shoelaces Saved Life of Climber, Rescuers Told Alamosa, Colo (UPI) A fisherman who spent five days and nights without food and water on a crumbling cliffside ledge told his rescuers Thurs day he wouy have plunged to his death had he not used his shoelaces to tie his legs around a tree. John Sanders, 35, of Albu querque, NJI., was rescued Wednesday by mountain-trained soldiers. They scaled a 1,000 -foot escarpment and then lowered themselves to the five-foot-wide ledge where Sanders clung. Slipped on Rock Sanders' ordeal began July 4 when he and a companion, William E. Garver, 28, also of Albuquerque, slipped on loose rock while searching for Garver's wallet and tumbled down a mountainside. Garver fell several hundred f&t and was killed. His body was recovered Tuesday. But a slender pine tree broke Sanders' fall. He con tinued to slip but grabbed the tree and tied himself to it with the shoelaces. Too Weak To Climb Don Bewley, 22, an ei ployee of a mountain lodge 15 miles fr$m the rugged scene, reached Sanders Tues day. Bewley was able to leave the ledge and climb back but Sanders was too weak from lack of food and could not follow him. Mountain climbers from Fort Carson, Colo., trained in Alpine techniques, then were called in. They reached Sand ers and lowered him to the Conejos river below in a harness fashioned from nylon rope. Sanders was reported in good condition except for fa tigue and exposure. AWOL LONG TIME Edinburgh, Scotland (UPI) Army Private Hughie A. Smith was sentenced to nine months in prison Wednesday for being absent without leave for eight of the 10 years he has been in the service. CRASH KILLS THREE Dacca, Pakistan (UPI) Authorities said today all three crewmembers were killed Wednesday when an In dian Airlines cargo transport crashed into a swamp near Pupshi, 10 miles irom here. and makes her account for every penny. He is sometimes harsh with the children and is very subborn in general. Nevertheless, he is a good man and sincerely devoted to his family. If she leaves him, I know Harriet can't go around look ing for another husband with four children on her hands. Her children will grow up and leave here and she'll be left alone. Harriet S. I've thought about all the ; things Ceil brings up and realize how hard it's going to be, but I feel almost anything would be better than enduring what I am now going through. I haven't had a new dress in four years. Every week there is a big battle over the al lowance. My husband checks the prices of every item of food in the house. He becomes furious if I slip up on some bargain that is offered or if anything goes to waste. I don't want to bring up the children without a father in the home, but I think no fa ther would be better for them than to have to witness these weekly scenes. The children are Kradualy getting to hate theij father. m m m The Council: The life Har riet describes is indeed almost unendurable, yet she would be making a mistake to break up her marriage without a stren uous effort to change things. For; one thing, does she really believe she will be any better off financialy when she has to collect an allowance from this same husband while he is suDDorting two house holds? She will have certain legal rights, it is true, but the ac tual amount of money avail able under those rights may be much less than she sup poses and she may have her troubles collecting. For another thing, does she believe her children will love their father more when they are deprived of whatever good they can gain from his com pany? Like most children in this situation they will prob ably feel their father has de serted them. There must be good reason for Ceil to say this man is besically good and sincerely wievoted to his family. His children must in some way be aware of this devotion. Harriet should recognize her husband's behavior is the result of some personality dis turbance. She . must try to make him recognize this too. Money in itself does not cause anyone to behave in any specific way. It is a powerful symbol, representing power and the ability to offer or withhold good.' Harriet's husband is prob aly in need of some psychi atric help, but he will have to be led in easy stages. Possibly Harriet can first lead him to the office of a community agency, dealing with family problems or to a clergyman with the object of discussing their marital difficulties. (Copyright 1958.
