With a financing problem leads this woman to con Sider seeking professional advice. Dear mrs.

The problem is now that things Haven t been going Well Between us and the tenants. Been thinking about Selling the House and getting a smaller one just for our own family. We have no Cash on hand and thought the Money we have paid into the House would be our Down pay ment but my mrs. Thompson brother thinks this would be an unwise move. He does t want a second mortgage on which the payments would be made strangers. He is retired and can afford to take risks. We Are at our wits end As the situation Here gets worse every Day. We thought if we could Dis cuss it with someone who knows the rights and wrongs of real estate buying and Selling we could decide on something. B. L. D. Any qualified real estate agent would Adise you. Go to one say you would like to buy. A smal Ler House and ask How you could finance it under the circumstances i think you would have to find a buyer for your present House who would give you some Cash and assume both mortgages. Your brother would t really be More risk than he does when you Are paying off the second mortgage. However if you got some Cash he might want part of the Down payment returned then. I Don t know How the Deal would work out for you on another House. If it proves that you can t sel1 at present give your tenants notice. You Don t have to put up with nerve wracking a function knowing the Pitfalls you can choose the next tenants More carefully dear lbs. Thompson i am faced with a problem which a connection with a letter u your column lately. I am 21-ant" about a month ago became engaged to a Man of 25 with whom i have been going out for about 10 months. We expect to get mar ried sometime this fall. Now. When i was 17, my bust development was was far below the Standard is l Amosiii. I they helped me greatly to Over ome my shyness and feeling of Fer Prity i am sure that my Fiance does not know about this although Here has been considerable was no and some petting Between the to of us. But i never permitted in to take any. Liberties. However sooner or later he will have to learn the truth and this makes me quite nervous at times. Especially when he praises my Good looks or my figure. I should add that otherwise my figure is Well proportioned and my face is pretty. The question is whether i should Tell him now or let him Eind out before we Are married or should i wait until after Are married and he discovers the real situation for himself some tunes i feel As if i were cheat ing him for not telling Hin out right then again i am afraid of losing because he Doest love me but because he might feel he was the victim o false pretences. At the same time he might feel this Way after we got married and that would be even i would appreciate greatly and so Polo give for not typing this letter it i would t dare do it in the office and have no typewriter at ome. W. N you Are making far too much of this problem. It in t any More false pretences to Wear bust improves than to curl straight hair put Rouge on Pale Cheeks apply lipstick to purplish Mouths or use Arch supports men take it for granted girls will gild the Lily. Sooner or later your husband will see you with your face washed and your figure As it is but i Don t think he Wal be shocked or disappointed. The one Point you should Clear up is whether the Small bust Means that there is anything abnormal about your sex organs. As you Are going to be married. You should have a Complete Phy Sical on general principles. Even is wedding Date is it be Good though your months away for your peace of mind to see a doctor soon.
