Thanks for the advise you gave

Dear Jan:
I am writing this letter through
sheer desperation. I was never so
desperate in my whole life. Dur-
ing the war I fell for a sailor.
We were to be married and he
went to Hong Kong. While in
Hong Kong he met a woman in
the service and married. They are
now grandparents. I have been
foolish and have gone with this
man on several occasions for
which I could OUT MY THROAT.
I find that I am unable to give
him up completely. Many times I
have asked WHY did you mar-
ry another woman while still lov-
ing me? My answer was always,
“Let’s not go into this, its all in
the past!” Jan, please, help! I
am so worried. I have never mar-
ried.

Dear Stepper:
I think it is wrong be-
cause you are hurting three
people. Yourself, your wife
and the woman with whom
you are stepping — besides
being against the laws of
God. This type business can’t
survive — so my sugges-
tion is to try to make your
wife feel so important that
she will gladly share her life
with you. It can be done. So
do it!

The following is a quote from 1
somebody’s writing that is bet-
ter than rambling along trying
to make a column:
“The five most important words
are ‘I am proud of you.’ The four
most important words are ‘What I
is your opinion?’ The three most
important words are ‘If you!
please.’ The two most important
words are ‘Thank you.’ The least
portant word is ‘I’.” ,
Dear Jan:
I know that it is hard to give
a pacific answer in some of these
triangle cases as you can’t know
what the real cause might be.
Many times a man is married to
a woman with whom there is no
love, understanding or
sion. In such cases a

I admit! My wife never gives me
a kind word. She never goes with
me to a movie, dance or any-
thing else. I have found a woman
with whom I can share all of
these pleasures. I don’t feel one

grade. Do you really thing I am
wrong? If so, WHY?

He married a woman, had
children, grandchildren, so
he owes you no explanation
as to why he married—how-
ever you should explain to
yourself . . . WHY AM I GO-

TIMER? When you get your
answer from your real self
I doubt you will be going
with him any longer.

According to Greek mythol-
ogy, the city kingdom of Troy

Hence, when the Greeks built
a great wooden horse and set
it before the gates, the Trojans
could not resist taking this
horse in to get a better look.

There are many who feel
that the location of the United
Nation’s headquarters in New
York is working out to be some-
thing of a 20th Century Trojan
horse. This belief is held by
many who do not necessarily
condemn the principle of the U
N, but believe it should be in
some place like Switzerland.

Largely due to the very vigi-
lant work of the FBI, Russian
spies are being picked up in the
United States who are actually
officially credited to the Rus-
sian delegation at the UN.
There is also a bit of talk
around that some of the more
attractive members of the Rus-
sian fair sex have no qualms
about accepting an invitation to
“look at some etchings,” as the
works well engineered.

polite phrasing goes, if there is
a chance to latch on to some
security secrets.
* ♦ ♦
It seems quite fruitless to
rail at any questions of moral-
ity involved. This is a matter
on which attention has been
focused since Adam and Eve,
without too great an effect.
Thus, from a standpoint of
realism, it is to be recog-
nized when there are a lot of
well paid bureaucrats with lit-
tle to do, and lots of leisure in
juxtaposition with attractive
and dedicated femmes fatale,
things are bound to happen.
* * *
Thus, moving U.N. out of the
U.S. seems logical
* * *
It remained recently for
Congressman H. R. Gross of
Iowa to really point up the
silliness of the situation. The
Congressman reports, due to
— insistence, U.S. tax-
pay major share of
operating a school in
* * *
The United States pays,
Congressman Gross says,
32.02% of the entire cost of
operating the UN operations.
Part of this cost is maintain-
ing a school in Moscow to teach
Russians the English language
for jobs at U.N. in New York.
♦ ♦ *
Thus, perhaps the American
people are even more stupid
than the long destroyed Tro-
jans, as there is no record that
the Trojans put up one drach-
ma to help the ancient Greeks
build their wooden horse. But
today the American taxpayer is
being forced to pay the major
part of the cost to train Rus-
sian spies in methods of des-
troying the United States. This
is somewhat akin to the con-
demned man being forced to
pay a part of the hangmans fee.
