Kenneth Boss, realtor, and Miss Eetty Manne. The clearing of accumulated rubbish in the prospective playground started last weekend when parents assembled to throw out the first tin can. Neighbors are offering the use of picks, shovels and rakes and two old milk delivery wagons have been donated.

The wagons are the horse-drawn type. One wagon, sans wheels and shafts, will be used as a storeroom for playground equipment. The other, will be a play wagon for the climbers. All other equipment for the playground will be made by fathers of the children.

The reason is that the gas you're using now is manufactured right in Brooklyn from oil and other fuels. The cost of making it has gone up like everything else. By bringing in pure natural gas, the gas companies can hold costs down.

The final decision on new rates is up to the State Public Service Commission, which is now considering them.

Hii jealous suspicious bias, which worries him constantly, is a typical forerunner of paranoiac confusion of mind, which can ba tragically serious and in fact Incurable, In the later stages If the patient doesn't get effective diagnostic and psychiatric help in time. Obviously Bart was already entangled In chronic neurotic difficulties and traumatla symptoms when he met you, and fixed on you, in the name of love, ha his scapegoat or the supposed explanation of his dark distrust of human nature, including his own. His first "shocked" scolding reaction to tha flirtatiously posed snapshots concealed a jealous tantrum, in which he wasn't so concerned about your morals, as was stabbed by fear a lift-long familiar fear of his that "nobody lovad him" first and best, and nobody aver would.

Date From Childhood Very likely Bart's basic troubla started with severe emotional thwarting In his early childhood. Probably his vital hunger fSr lovt was largely Ignored, and his affectlonal overturei mostly rebuffed in his formative years. There is no real solution of the problem, for Bart or yourself, unless he recognizes that tha trouble is within himself, stops blaming you for his sil thoughts, and enlists psychiatric aid In seeking health. If he fails to do this, your problem then will he, how to fend with his growing Irrationality; and if the situation comes to that, it will be your turn to draw on psychl-atria leadership. M.
