Now she admits she's an ag nostic. Carla U. - People change. Now that I'm away from my parents I can think for my self. Joseph U. - I d 't expect Carla to observe every detail of every rule of ou.' religious rituals, the way her parents do. But I certainly didn't ex pect her to go through such an about-face that she'i prac tically an atheist now. She certainly had me fooled. We met at the home of friends and she was intro duced to me as "a very pious young lady." The couple who introduced us to each other I Complete Knew mat my religion meant I DINNERS a lot to me and that I was seeking a mate who felt the same way about our faith, someone who'd remain true to its traditions and command ments. We were married three years ago. At first she obeyed the laws to the letter. But In the last year she's "dragged her feet'' and admits she keeps up religious practices only to humor me. Now she stays away from services, and it gradually skipping over more and more of the regulation. Joe's. He can't claim fnud.his enjoyment of rituals and Carla did believe when she married him, She changed. She claims she loves him and will not f.aunt her defec tion before him, his family or friends. Joe is fortunate. Sometimes an unloving mate pounces upon this area for aiming her barbs, for "get ting back" al a man where It can hurt him most. Setting him up as a "religious'1 man, a bitter wife becomes anti religious because she is anti him, Joe's patience, respect, sympathy and broad-mindedness will help keep Carla lov ing him. This keepi her "free think" excursions purely in tellectual rather than emo tional, and makes the road back welcoming and easy. Warmed by Joe'i toler ance, Carla will pursue her quest for truth inconspicuous ly, while following the forms of observance for his sake. True, the gestures may not mean much. But they'll mean something-namely, that she'll stand at Joe's side promoting BERGQUIST - To Mr. and Mrs. Ronald, 1615 Crater Lake ave., Medford, April 14, 1962, a girl, 6 'a pounds, at Hogue valley hospital.

I did things like an au tomaton, never questionini why, never imagining that there was any other way to live and believe. Lately, however, I've felt like someone coming out of an amnesia spell and asking. Where am I?" I realize that one doesn't drop dead for dis believing, that the world doesn't end for me when I akip a prayer or do what I want on the Sabbath. It's new and wonderful feeling to be able to think through big matter! like life and death and my place in the world. instead of repeating what I'm told like a dummy. But because I love Joe and I don't want to jar him too much, I try to adhere to the outward forms. I feel respons ible for living- like the sort of girl he (and I) thought he was marrying. Although I've changed inwardly, I don't want to embarrass him. But I keep hoping he'll change a little, too. The Council: Carla had bet ter not bank on Joe'! chang ing much. His piety seem! to be part of his very fiber, not subject to debate, review or examination. It would have been better for their marriage, had Carla'i change in belief occurred before !he married Joe. Now that she lack! sin cerity and conviction about their faith, we are presented with a masked "intermar riage." As usual In such cases, we plead for a united front on religion before a child ap pear! on the scene.
