A vapor barrier is a sheet of plastic or polyethylene which, when placed on the inside sur- face of barn walls or ceilings, will keep warm, moist air in- side the barn from seeping through the barn walls to con- dense on the walls' outside sur- face. Livestock barns are alwayS full of warm water vapor given off by respiring animals. ThLs will flow out to meet thett cooler air outside the barn. But if it does so through the walls, the subsequent moisture will warp and split the surface structure and severe damage can result. A vapor barrier, being imper- vious to water, is often regarded as being essential to prevent this. Dr. Pattie, School of Agricul- tural Engineering,. University of Guelph, says that' a vapor barrier keeps the warm water vapor from seeping through a poorly-built wall. This water is then got rid of by ventilation. If a wall is pro- perly constructed a vapor barrier is not essential, because the walls themselves will be almost imper- meable and the water on the in- side wall . surface will be dis- sipated by ventilation. Operators should note, says Dr. Pattie, that the actual flow of warm air from the inside of the barn to the outside should not 'be prevented, properly built walls with the proper ventilation should ensure that it continues, but as soon as the flow starts to go through a badly-built wall, trouble begins. It is extremely difficult to build a wall that acts as a corn- plete vapor barrier, says 'Dr. Pattie, and in severe frost condi- - lions, for example* a vapor bar- rier of the plastic type is a good idea. For'' more information on vapor barriers and ventilating aspects connected with this prob- lem, farmers should talk to the agricultural engineering specia- list in their area. Coniumer News What do you linow about shoes? Probably there is nothing that is more generally used than the shoes we wear. Yet how much does the average person know about them? The Consumer Ser- vice and Information Branch of the Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs provides some answers:- GENERAL Q. How far does the average per- son walk in a lifetime? A. More than 250,000 miles. Q. Are there different types of feet,_ and do they need any extra consideration when choosing shoes? A. Yes, there are two extreme types, the thin foot and the fleshy 400t, With many varia- tions in between. The thin foot is, usually long and nar- Dew, the toes quite long in relation to the ., arch length.. The fleshy foot is thick and wide, making it hard to find the arch. Q. Once Ii have deterinitied the size of my shoe, can I be assured a fit by asking for that size? A. No; sizes vary with different makes; sizes change with gain or loss of weight. Always have your feet measured. MRS. JOHN EIALLGE Mrs. John Ballge, 69, of Mc- Killop Township died Friday at Kilbarchan Nursing Home, Sea- forth, where she had been a resident for five months. She was the former Margaret Krauskopf, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Krauskopf of Mc„Killop Township. She had lived in this area all her life: She was married to John Ballge of St. Columban in 1920. Her husband died several years ago. There was no family. She was an active member of the Catholic Women's League and a devout member of St. Columban Roman Catholic Church. Surviving are two sisters, Miss Clara Krauskopf of Detroit; Sister Clara of The Precious Blood, London; and one brother, Nicholas of London. The body was at the W. .T. Cleary funeral home, Seaforth, till 9:30 a.m. Monday when re- moval was made to St. Columban Roman Catholic Church for re- quiem high mass at 10 o'clock. Burial was in St. Columban Roman Catholic cemetery. Pallbearers were; Joseph Devereaux, James Devereaux, John Maloney, Art Devereaux, Ken Murray and Wilbert Maloney. Q. Are a person's feet identical in size? A. Most people have one foot 'a size to fit the larger foot larger than the5other. Pick and, if necessary, have the other shoe adjusted. • Your. feet expand as you put weight on them, so stand and walk. Remember too that feet in- crease in size in hot weather. Never buy a pair that doesn't quite fit hoping to break them 'in. Other than nominal size, how Q. do I make certain I have bought a good fit? Make sure that the widest part of the shoe corresponds to . the _widest part of your foot; , Make sure there is adequate space in front so toes can lie straight; Make sure the back •of the shoe hugs the heel but doesn't rub or cut; Make sure the arch is long enough and shaped to give support without pressure.' When my size is hard to find, Q. what can I do? This is a vexing 'problem, A. but, one that Canadian indus- try is constantly trying tb improve. Small markets in Canada make it a more dif- ficult problem. The best course is to enlist the help of a shoe retail outlet. The "Footwear Bureau of' Canada, St, Catherine St. W., Mon- treal, has a wealth of valu- able, information and may be able to help. ESPECIALLY ABOUT CHILDREN'S SHOES Q. What shoe styles are best for a child? • Saddle and ghillie oxfords are good choices for school shoes because of their broad toes • and laces which allow adjustment; - Everydey shoes should be able to take plenty of abuse; SOme shoes have scuff-tips over the toes for added resis- tance; A child should be happy with the look of the shoe; many dress-up shoes are not designed for everyday wear; they're for special events and not for the playground. Q. How much 'groSrroom' should be allowed? A. You'll have to use your own judgment - usually a space of 1/2 in. to 3/4 in. beyond the end of the toe is adequate. New shoes are needed' be- fore the child's toes reach the end of the shoes and the toe cap presses down on toes; and when shoes are badly worn or stretched' out of shape. What can wear patterns tell Q. about the fit of shoes? A. Shoes should be worn evenly at the ball of the foot, and the heel orn at the back outer edge; Sign of wear at the toe' In- dic e• shoes• are too short; pro bly outgrown; Wear around the edge of the sole tells that the, shoe 'is narrow' across the ball of the foot; this may eventually cause bunions and corns; Excess wear on the timer edge of the heel or sole may indicate that the child is not walking properly. Should shoes be handed down? No; each shoe, molds itself to the _characteristics of the wearers foot. They say that babies should wear high top shoes; is this so? A. Although mothers are often advised to put babies Into high top shoes, first on the theory that it helps form the arch, this is not necessary. The foot and arch will usually develop normally in low quar- ter shoes with adequate space and a 'straight last. t. An Expositor Classified will pay you dividends. Have you tried one? Dial 527-0240. DEAR DORIS - I'm a boy 16. This girl •went nuts over me and I succumbed. She had gone out with boys since Day One and her ltOle affectionate ges- tures really made an impres- sion. Then one weekend she swore her love. On the following Mon- day she two-tinted me. I got mad, swore, cried. But no, she loved this punk. He drinks and keeps nudes in his locker. And knocks her around. Every lunch-hour she eats with me, then goes to the student lounge to meet this punk and fight with him. She gets clobbered. She has picked up her gutter language again. The reason she broke off with me is because I never hit her. I couldn't hit a girl. -HOW SHOULD I ACT DEAR HOW - Turn her in on a new model. Start having lunch with a more civilized type.Girls are good companions; not spar- ring partners. DEAR DORIS - When we take the children out (girl 9, boy 5) they talk all the time, interrupt people, and run all over the place. They get so wound up at times we can't get them settled down. Our baby-sitter was sick last bowling night, so we had to take the children with us. I was really ashamed of them. The more we talk or scold or ask them to please be quiet, the worse they get.

DEAR DORIS - Would you have any ideas on a not-too-serious type of program to honor a re- tiring minister. Any novel idea would be greatly appreciated by the.. -COMMITTEE IN CHARGE DEAR COMMITTEE - What about a "Truth-or-Conse- quences" -show, with the minister as one of the contestants. He could be asked some far-out questions that couldn't possibly be answered. The consequence might require him to race across the room carrying an egg on a spoon, or to get down on all fours and bark like a dog, or sing line from a song. If you have a presentation to make, let him win on the last question and bring out your gift. Or you could present brief skits suggesting your minister's retirerrient plans. He might run for Parliament, take up life- saving, try out for the Olympics. Would a member of the con- gregation play reporter and in- terview him - humorously. CONFIDENTIAL TO ANXIOUS MOTHER - Irritation in the• genital region is common fn young children, and seldom of real significance. See your own doctor; say what you have no- ticed and ask for russurance about the possibility of infec- tion or' injury as the cause. As far as the child goes, ignore the whole thing. A mother's anxiety is often the one thing which fixes a young childs .attention on something he would completely forget without- it.
