MARY HAWORT__l-j

Forget The Fussy Details

Dear Mary Haworth: I am a bachelor, 50, soon to be married to a spinster, 50-, whom I have known since childhood. For fam- ily reasons that I won't go into, marriage wasn't possible before. But, as we have a common back- ground, we feel confident that we can make a success of life to- gether.

Now for my questions: 1. Jane .13 in good health, as I am; so what are our chances of having a'chl1d?

2. Jane is coming here from across the continent; and we plan an informal church wedding, probably at 11 am, with 30 or 40 people present. Is it correct for my six-year-old nephew to be ring bearer? .

3. We aren’t going to have a large reception, for the church list-—so how do we issue invita- tions? My sister insists that we have just a few close friends come to her home, for a small receptio. ‘What do you think of this? And are separate invitations issued for it?

INVITATIONS WORRY

4. Should I invite my co-work- ers or not? My employer's son was married last year and I was one of many invited to the church ceremony and reception-but I attended th e ceremony only. Since then I've met his wife, a singer, and had considered ask- ing her to sing at our wedding. If I do, would it obligate“ us to invite others of the family who work in the firm; and also my co - workers? What are -“your views?

Perhaps the only solution is not to ask her to sing; and not,asvk co-workers or my employer's family. I don’t socialize much with either group. I never miss your column and find it very helpful. Thanking you in antici- pation of sage advice, I am, sin. cerely, H.Y. '

FUSSY DETAILS OF LIFE

Dear H. Y.: In condensing your letter I’ve omitted reference’ to your dependent mother, who will stay on in your household, with a nurse in charge of her. For this reason, you say, Jane will continue to be a job holder- though the nurse will sleep out, to give you more domestic pri- vacy.

Altogether, you have been a mother-dominated man, I gather —so much so that you've become habitually fretted with the fussy details of life that hearth-bound women yak about.

I wish that you cared less, in a manly way, and that your sis- ter. had less to say, about the pirogramming of ’ your wedding

One Bricl. — Then Another . So Highest Wall Is Made

“Well, well, Ellen, we’re into another new week” James re- marked softly at first waking this morning. . . It is good to Stop

a. few minutes these days before-.

rising to revel in the delights of the season about: to see the glow of spring-sunlight latticing a wall, to catch the momentary shadow of swift wings passing a window, to listen to the morning sounds: the ro«bln’s song we yearned to hear when winter - sleet was on the panes, a ewe in t-he near pas- ture calling to her straying lamb- kin, a low from a stable, excur- sioning crows along the uplands of hills.

"And” he added throwing back the covers "if we’re going to con- tinue to farm. we can’t afford to lie here all day and other folks already into the cropping! . . . Any kindling indoors?” he quer- ied.

At least a long minute we like to stop before rising tolook and listen. . . and plan. This we shall do today and that, we promise ourself checking over the obliga- tions of the home, planning tent- atively, recalling that “Man pro- poses but God disposes” and that “Best laid plans . . . gang aft agley." .

We look and listen and plan. . . and remember. Think back there this morning to the weekend past, to recall among other pleasant- ries, visitors to Alderlea. They who came to look out along the fields now clad in first green, to ca-tch the sparkle of sunlight in the millstrea-:n, to see the old mill dreaming below us in the

valley, to look in with our far-. mers on the animals about. l “You have calves” a little girl visitor commented to Mack “but wha.t I like best of all — of ev- ery animal.I know" she said, her expression wrapt “are kittens! Do you have some of those?"

“No” Mack replied, “not yet. But I’d say it shouldn't be too long before we do. We'll likely be keeping all of them" he observ- ed quietly though with subtle sug- gestion. “It’s a funny thing” he smiled “but there never comes too many of those."

Never too many kit-cats with their velvet coats and interesting faces quite as pretty as the pan- sy blossoms we hope to have from the seedlings now growing thriftily in tins on a windowsill.

“On the land!" James exclaim- ed to our philosopher- friend, a caller of this evening. “Why, we haven't our fences all straighten- ed away yet. And” he added with a smile a bit rueful "I don't, be- lieve we ever will!"

“Oh, yes, you will” the other offered. “It's not all done in a day, you know. It’s a piece at a time. It's an anchor -post here, and a stake there." But. he nodd- ed “ ‘One brick and then another and the highest "wall is made, So, he chuckled “it’s ane stake and then another and the long- est line is laid. . . That's h-ow it’s done."

And one minute after another. . and the day goes. Goes now in the silver of moonlight, edges a- way to some haven of rest.
