An over-active sense of duty in an unmarried daughter plus an under-developed back bone in a widowed mother usually adds up to a dwarfed lifefor the daughter. And it's surprising how often the two are added together. You probably know thre or four Margarets yourself.

Margaret's father died when she had been out of college just two years. There were other children in the family but all others were married and so when the question, "What about mother?" came up, everyone NATURALLY thought of Margaret. And Margaret, of course, fell right in line. She asked her mother to come and live with her and share the tiny apartment her salary afforded. She had come to be very proud of the apartment for it stood for independence place to entertain her friends.

Her mother-lonely, herself, bewildered, accepted a thinking only of the invitation. And though that was ten she is still living with her years ago, still unmarried daughter. Margaret's life has changed a great deal in those ten years. She has become as dependent on her mother as her mother is on her. Her friends have changed too.

Now they are people who either enjoy or put up with her maternal shadow. She has lost track of the gay crowd she used to enjoy. And the men she knew ten years ago are all out of the picture. With no new ones in sight. Every one says, "What a splendid ADVERTISEMENTE including ave insertion, sequent consecetive Dept making dive limes will be 100 Line rot lasertion additionar Whoa!
