Dear Louisa,
I read your letter and will
answer it as your case is a lot
like mine.
I am a woman of seventy-nine
years-will be eighty on the 7th
of October. We built our house
and furnished it before we
were married and moved in as
a bride and groopi. We had three
children-two girls and one son.
All are married and each has
four children. My husband died
13 years ago In 1957 and I live
alone on the farm in my beauti
ful home where my three chil
dren were born. I could not
think of ever leaving It with all
its pleasant memories. I am in
good health now and able to do
my own work and all of my
Erandchlldren love my home too.
I hope you can be happy and be
In your own home. Good luck
to you and God Bless you and
your family.
Mrs. M.E.W.-Ind.
Answer: '
Thank you Mrs. W. for your
very nice letter. We have so
many heart breaking letters to
read and situations that ask
for help that It is nice to hear
from someone who has lived a
busy, satisfying life and is
still contented with the way
things are.
This column is for people,
however, that need advice or
talk to someone who can be ob
jective about problems that oc
cur in everyone's life. You
must be blessed with wonderful
health and a very fine family.
