Dear Miss Colbert: I hope you will understand my situation and not consider it too complicated. I met this certain girl four months before I went into the Army. She is now 17 and I am 19. We started going steady and our love grew stronger. She is now in her last year of school and is doing well. When I went into the Army she and my brother saw me off and I know it broke her heart to see me go. I sure hated to leave her. During my first weeks in the Army I said to myself that maybe our feelings were just infatuation and she would meet someone else and forget me. But as time went by I began receiving two or three letters a day and a package every few weeks. My friends wrote me and told me how lucky I was that my girl was being honest to me. When I got eight days’ leave I spent most of my time with my girl. We didn’t go many places, just stayed home or went for walks and talked of our future together. As I thought I might go overseas soon, we jumped to the conclusion that we should get married before I went back. Well, the next day I told her that we would be doing wrong to get married then because I had no money saved and besides, we were too young. She cried and cried and said I knew best, of course, because I was older and smarter. I had to go back the next day but I told her that I would send her a ring. That stopped her tears. Christmas came and I received lovely gifts from her. In return all I sent was a card, even though I had bought a ring. I felt cheap, not sending the ring, but I had a reason. Now comes the main topic. My family is from the old country and with them they brought all their old country ideas. They don’t realize that the world has changed. When my family heard that I wanted to marry this girl, they started to write and tell me how wrong I was. They said that if I wanted to go with girls, why didn’t I pick a girl from their own country. They think girls from the part of the country where this girl was born and now lives are lazy and unhealthy. Well, you and I know this is silly and not true, but you couldn’t change the folks’ minds. As I said, I have the ring and want to send it to my girl because I love her and it would make her very happy. But if I do my folks will be hurt and will hate this girl forever. Private Marvin F. Dear Private F: Your letter was interesting to me not only because of your particular problem, but because you are using the judgment that is inherent ivith all fine American boys. During wartime you have chosen the right path when you met the right girl. You decline to marry until the things you are fighting for are settled. You are to be commended. You are lucky to have met such a lovely girl. I feel that you should send her the ring. Love is a tender thing and I am sure from the tone of your letter that you and your girl are in love and right for each other. Your attitude in not wanting to hurt your parents is very commendable and shows again the fine spirit of the American fighting men. However, I think you should tell them that you are sending the ring to the girl. Try to convince them that their attitude is un-American and that race discrimination is one of the things we are fighting to abolish in our posl-ivar world. Try to show them that because of the fine way they have raised LEARN NURSING AT HOME High school not necessary. No age limit. Send for FREE "Nursing Facts" and sample lesson pages.
