Your articles are generally fuzzy and without logic or substance. However, the editorial in the February 13th edition Is a blow to per sonal freedom. You Intimate that “divine law” can deter mine the use of personal pro perty better than the owner of the property. Well, “divine law” for each religious deno mination has different mean ings, and for the agnostic and the atheist, divine law means nothing. If this is to be a free country, then it must be guided by civil laws, not divine laws. Mr. Smith pointed out that re cent Supreme Court decisions are forcing “agnostic educa tion” upon the American peo ple- a type of education which Mr Smith indicates is ;against the American principle of free dom of worship. The editorial also states “the Catholic Church has always jus tified State intervention In the use of property when the com mon good is at stake," It should also be stated that In many countries where Catholics are In the majority, other religious are discriminated against by laws openly or silently endor sed by the Church. The Catho lic Church is obviously against the separation of Church and State when that church Is Cath olic.

My husband is a good man but for some time now he has been glum and morose around the house. I can’t pry him loose from the TV and news paper to take part in any social activities. Is there anyway I can light a fire under him? 'FIRE LIGHTER" Dear "FIRE LIGHTER": Why even try to pry him away? WOO HIM AWAY. You’re a woman and certainly at 45 you haven't forgotten how to do that. The degree of happiness in your lives in the future will depend on how well you do the wooing. Sincerely, Loretta Young Dear Miss Young: My son, the oldest of six children, Is extremely Immature at the age of 37. My wife and I realize that we must have made some serious errors in bring ing him up. He is an alcoholic, and now - on top of it all - he has divorced his wife and left his four children. We don’t know where we fail ed. The gnawing guilt just won’t leave us. I am awake many nights thinking about it. My wife has shed more tears than I can describe. This problem Is wrecking us. we discuss it continuously. The other children seem happy and well-adjusted. Will we always carry this heartache and guilt? "HURT FATHER* Dear Father; Whatever you did happened years ago and cannot be undone now. Stop tearing yourselves apart over the past - Imagined or real. If you did make serious mistakes rearing this son, and these mistakes were recognized as offenses against parental respon sibility, you’ve probably confessed them. God has forgiven you. You must forgive yourselves. I beg of you; [Don't let this problem wreck any more lives than it already has. This is another nasty little ruse of the devil to keep you mixed up and unhappy. God wants you to be happy. A real alcoholic belongs with ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS. Look it up in the phone book and attempt to get your son to seek their help. If he refuses, that’s his free will, and you have no right to infringe upon it. You both have a duty to make sure that you do not allow this tragedy to overshadow all the other blessings God has given to you and your whole family. Sincerely, Loretta Young Dear Miss Young: When I first started dating Jack, I was twenty nine and he was twenty five. When he asked me my age, I told him that I was twenty five because I was afraid he wouldn’t want to date me any more. Now we have been going out for more than a year and are desperately in love. Several times he has commented that he al ways felt he would marry a girl at least five years younger than him but never one his “own age.” I am afraid to tell him; yet, at the same to marry him on the basis of a lie. Please help I do nc THIRTY Dear “THIRTY”: Is he marrying you? - Or a date on a calendar? If a “female lying about her age” can turn his undying love to something less than it should be, forget him. It is, of course, always embarrassing to admit we have told a lie. Nevertheless, the quicker you do it, the better. If he is at all mature, he’ll respect you for having suffered this embarrass ment for the sake of honesty. If not, as I said above, forget him. He’s not old enough nor wise enough for you.
