KEN JEWELERS, Inc.I 27 PATTON AVENUE ASHEVILLE A WHOLE YEAR TO PAY widower of 50. My wife passed a away a year ago, and since I have met a fine woman whom I desire to marry. However, my married daughter, 21, is strongly against this. She feels I am "to old" to wed and that I should live with her and her husband. 7 I feel I have the right to live the rest of my life as I see fit, without any interference from my daughter.

What it your advice? E. G. W. ANSWER: Of course. SO many factors can enter into the question of a second marriage for a widower that they can't all be considered here.

The mere fact that your young married daughter objects to your nuptials is not a sufficient reason for you to cancel them. After all. she married--and apparently quite young-, has established her own home, and is not looking for advice from anyone. She should certainly extend to you the same privilege. Fifty is far from senility, and the desire for a home of one's own is not confined to any set age.

Ev-young and old -has it. If you did acquiesce to daughter's wishes and stayed with her, who's to guarantee that in time she wouldn't tire of having Pop around the house all the time? Take what happiness you can, Mr. and keep your own home. There is one thing must be you into a marriage any sure of! Don't let loneliness, lead probability of trouble. Are you sure the lady of your choice is really a fine and worthy woman? If, in your own mind, you are certain on that score, go ahead and best of luck! DEAR MISS NISSEN: Five years ago I married a boy I had known about eight years.

We were both 17. Ten months later our son was born, then my husband left for overseas. He was gone two years. and in that time I never went out with anyone, but somehow I felt we had grown apart, so I wrote and asked for a divorce. Although my husband didn't want one at all, he agreed to let me have my way.

In the two years since, I have grown up. Instead of loving my husband less, I love him more, and realize what a horrible mistake I made. Now I make him realize it was a mistake, and that I'd like to try again to make our marriage a success. I know we both love each other, and could establish a wonderful home with our boy. G.

Time brought the experience and at least some of the wisdom. Now the problem is, how to patch the wreck that your heedlessness brought on. Naturally your husband is bewildered by your constantly changing moods, and doesn't know which one to trust.

If you get him to agree to go with you, your best solution would be an interview with a reputable marriage counselor.
