I am 75, have no money and no- home? only- five daughter* who lmve deserted me. Yet people conlate me on the fine family'I have reared.My wife and I save d And buiit a home for our old age which I put in her name. After her death my youngest daughter brought out a will, giving her the home and leaving me and the other daughters three dollars apiece. I Wo contested it in the coiirt but due to lying witnesses we lost. Then, my oldest daughter's husband' gave me $50 a month until he died.. I went to the one who had thd home and asked her to take me in but I hadn't been there long until she told me that she wanted my room and I should go stay with her sisters. None of them will keep me and I don't know which way to turn. Please, Miss Chatfield, tell me what to do. DESERTED. ANSWER: Go to your county authorities and ask them to get you into the county home. This may hurt your pride, but not any more than forcing yourself on daughters who don't want you. Surely this is the bitterest experience that an old man can have: to find himself deserted by the daughters that have been his pride and joy. It is inconceivable to decent minded people that children could be so cruel to their father. Yet, if they are, he must accommodate him self to the conditions and appeal to the charity of the state to provide for his declining years. Every reiigion worthy the name has either a commandment or an exhortation to children to honor their parents, with the plain implication that it is a child's duty to care for an old and dependent father and mother. And here be it said to the credit of the Negro race that their attitude toward dependent age is nearly 100 per cent perfect. Rarely does it happen that a Negro ignores his obligation to provide for his parents. Ana this in spite of the fact that he seldom has much of this world's goods. Today, when families live in chubby holes and life is geared to fast going, the sociologists are agreed that it is unwise for the young folk to take the old folks to live with them, that all are happier if the aged and infirm can be provided for in institutions, or have their board paid in congenial quarters, separated from children and grandchil dren. Many of the oid-timers snort at this suggestion. Yet every body is agreed that children have a moral responsibility to see that parents arc provided for. somehow, somewhere. Lord have mercy on each of the daughters who turn their father into the storm, lest King Lear's curse come down on each of them: and "All the stored vengeance of heaven fall On her ungrateful top."

The best the family could learn is that he might have fallen on the tracks or that he was trapped.
