When he goes out with the fellows or girls should he be in by 10:30 — even if his fa ther approves of them and his being home by 12:30? W. R. H. You and your parents bet ter get together. No problem can be resolved unless there is a meeting of minds. Of course I’m not advising that you go off half cocked and demand that your mother agree with you and your dad. But I do think you should sit down with your parents and discuss the problem of your social activi ties in a quiet, intelligent way. There must be total agree ment. Consistency on the part of your parents and, above all, obedience from you is an ab solute necessity, if you are to grow into mature, responsible manhood. This was the simple formula of the Holy Family— the family all Catholics should copy. * * * GROWING PAINS Dear Doris: I have a friend who is 12 years old and goes steady and smokes. Her mother has no idea of what is going on. Do you think that I should say anything to her mother or is there anything I can do for her myself? M. G. Don’t “tattle.” In this case especially, your friend may just be going through a bad stage of “growing pains.” Many girls entering their teens want to appear older. They think smoking and going stea dy is smart or the thing to do. It’s only a stage and they get over it. Why don’t you and a few others like you invite her with you on different occasions? Prove to her, by your example, that she is cheating herself in many ways. She is missing the normal healthy fun every 12- year-old girl needs. And most of all she is taking a chance in forming dangerous habits. Have you talked to her? Try it. Be kind and patient and above all try not to “preach.” Sometimes girls listen to girls much more than they listen to mothers.

DAILY —(Evening) [TJA'.V lofitv; SUNDAY-(Morning) Member Audit Bureau of Circulation Dear Doris: I have a problem I hope you can help me with. We are Catholics and are invited to my brother-in-law’s wedding which is in the United Church. He is getting married to a Mennonite and the reception is at the Mennonite Church. A.re we committing a sin by ?oing? We have no intention of ever changing our religion or do as they do in church but it is my husband’s brother and we would like to go as he is very dear to us. Maggie It depends on whether your brother-in-law is entering a valid marriage. If he and the girl he is marrying are both non-Catholics and have no oth er impediment to marriage — such as one or both of them being divorced — you will not be committing a sin to go. But if the marriage will not be valid you may not attend. While we are not allowed to attend regular services in an other church we may attend valid weddings (as a social function) as long as we don’t actively participate in the ser vice. It’s always wise, however, to check with your parish priest. There may be circum stances in the diocese which have made it necessary for the Bishop to make a special rul ing about such matters. Laos Situation Question Of How West Is To Deal With Soviet Russia Involved In Crisis AIM HIGH Dear Doris: Is it a crime to be ambitious and want to learn and progress —even if, being foreign born you have no chance in a voca tion? Chica It’s no crime to be ambitious. It’s good, providing your ambi tions are good. By vocation do you mean to be a Religious? If so, you have every chance. Being foreign born has nothing to do with it. Discuss it with a Sister or Priest. They will give you sound advice. Since you didn’t mention in your letter how old you are, your school or why you feel as you do I can’t be too help ful — but I can encourage you to go right on. Aim as high as you can! And God bless you. Doris Revere Peters answers letters through her column not by mail. Please do not ask for a personal reply. Young readers are invited to write to her in care of The Bulletin. WEAR AND TEAR Children are a great comfort to parents in their old age — they also help them reach it. By J. J. Gilbert WASHINGTON — Involved in the Laos crisis has been the whole questiton of how the West will in the future deal with Soviet Russia. The situation in the South east Asian republic built up unobstrusively while Africa, Cuba and Red China held the world headlines. But it was being steadily watched. Presi dent Eisenhower briefed Presi dent-elect Kennedy on this critical problem as they made ready to transfer the reins of government. President Ken nedy’s administration then chose to use diplomacy in an effort to reach its solution. That is, the United States re sorted to traditional forms of diplomacy — confidental ex changes through ambassadors and foreign offices — to make clear to Moscow what our position was, and the fact that we meant what we said. “I think the kind of re sponse that we get to our ef forts for oeace in this area will tell us something about what kind of a future our world is going to have, and we will have to wait and se$ what that response will be,” Presi dent Kennedy told the Ameri can people in explaining the Laos situation over television. An immediate effect of fail ure, Americans understood, could be the heightening of tensions and possibly open conflict. President Kennedy was care ful to “make it clear to the American people and to all of the world that all we want in Laos is peace and not war.” Americans back their chief executive in that declaration. The outcome of the Laos situation, as the President said, will not only have a bearing on what kind of future the world will have. It will also influence our dealings with Moscow. The only thing youngsters wish to save for a rainy day is school. Recently there has been a great deal said, more than usual, about the problem of dealing with Russian commu nists. Students of communism and men who have dealt with the Russians on behalf of our Government have written and spoken to warn that it is ex tremely difficult, almost im possible, to negotiate with the Soviet Russians. It has been said that they seem to have special training in how to stall, muddle and disrupt interna tional conferences. There have been urgings, too, in Congress and out, that the American people try to understand the real nature of communism. Communists, it was pointed out, firmly be lieve that they are going to dominate the world; that for some of them it will be a life long struggle, but they will win; that they exepect to be in a minority but are taught to manipulate the masses to do their will; that through “transmission belts,” including organizations existing legiti mately for other needs, small cadres of communists can as sume power and domination over large groups of people.

Lumpkin Street ATHENS, GEORGIA normal, diplomacy and to plump for summit meetings, which the Reds invariably have used as sounding boards for propaganda. After Khrush chev’s disgraceful behavior to wards President Eisenhower at and after the last summit meeting, held in Paris, the American people are strongly hopeful that such gatherings are not the only alternative to usual diplomatic procedures. Sample polls have demon strated this sentiment. Those who from past experi ence ought to know have shown an impressive unanim ity recently in saying that a firm stand is the only one to take with Soviet Russia. Some say Mosqow likes to use its military power as a threat in its cold war maneuvers, but is not anxious to use it in open conflict. That, of course, could be a miscalculation. But all authorities agree that it is no solution to retreat in the face of threats. That, they say, could lead only to surrender and our subjugation. It is not to be hoped that communism will change its aims. It may, in the face of stiff resistance, change its methods. How to bring about that possible change? Some crucial decisions are in the making. Family x Reading is FUN ST.
