I have this problem that I need solved. I hive you can help me. Here it is: I am 13 years old and in the 8th grade and I really love this boy who is 17 and in, the 12th grade. We went together during the last two kt, months of school last year ebut when summer started I dropped him. I dropped him because my parents don't want me to go out on dates yet.

I imagine a few of our readers must have looked at last week's Standard and,., asked ' What happened?" Some would have looked at the classi- fied page, put two and two together and figured out what happened for themselves. I must confess, last week's paper was not a classic example of journalism. The reason lies In that little announcement in the birth column last week which read: "To Keith and Jill Roulsidn, Blyth, in Wingham and District Hospital on Nov- ember 13, 197t, a daughter, Jennifer Louise." Those few words say a lot for the state of things around this office last week. When you have a staff composed of two full-time, and two part-time em- ployees, and one of the full-timers•does something foolish like having a baby, It m sins trouble. A newspaper is a hectic place anyway, but when the staff is re- duced, things reach the edge of madness. That's about the way things were last week .when the "Assistant Everything" decided midway through Monday after- noon ,that she should visit the hospital. Actually, even at that, she was much more considerate than we figured. We had been taking bets over the last few months that when the time came, she would depart either on a Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, the two times of the week where the slightest diversion .cale,, send weekly newspaper employees screaming up a wall. Still; it meant losing several potential hours of working time on Monday afternoon and evening for your editor, plus the amount of work the lady in question would have accomplished had she not decided to take the rest of the week off. It also meant that other members of the staff had to absorb some of the work usually done by Mrs.,. Assistant, work they weren't familiar with since she usually did it in her own accomplished Way. The result was'a hectic week which saw us two hours late arriving to be printed, half a day late getting. some of For And About Teenagers A new- arrivaf in Blyth Suedes and leathers Fur trims-all lengths All season coats with zip-In linings For sports wear Jean jackets Pant suit° 45" by 90" Special for Christmas.

Ray Madill probably had a few laughs at our expense last week. you see, in all the- rush, the Madill nameplate was left off his ad for snowboots. Some customers would have been pretty upset and maybe even a little obnoxious over such a stupid goof on our part, but good-natured Ray understood the dilemma, although I'll bet he and some of his customers had a good laugh or two out of the whole thing, Really, we're Just like many of the other businesses in town where the lady of the house is also an indispensible part of the business operation. None of the business men know just how dependent they are on their wives until they ate forced to get al ret without them for a while. And it also points up one of the unfair things about small businesses. Under income tax regulations these business men cannot, pay their wives a salary. The lady may work 12 hOurs a day, six days a week, but she is simply regarded as free labour, or an extension of her husband (like another right arm) as far as tax law is con- cerned. It is really unfair for-busin- esses and for farms too, and there should be some sort of change made. There are some ways around this problem, but few people will be willing to try ;hem. I was told once of a town in western Ontario where there are four or five main street businessmen who have been divorced from their first wives and are living with other women without the blessing of clergy. If they married, their wives would not be paid, but as long as they live common law, the ladies can be paid for working in the stores. Isn't It great how you have -to live outside the law to get a fair break. However, whether you're married or not, it doesn't make much difference when you' have to do Without - such a valuable part. of the organization. So, we'll give a cheer for the valuable assistant and be glad to have her back, And we'll hope .this week we don't have any blunders like last. 01\N,\\*Yerel*-1,;fiviva-.; ton.

He bought it from a young man for $200.00 cash. He must have been a good -salesman. Knowing my father, even though I was only ten years old, I knew it would take a good Salesman to sell my father any- ..r. I TilT4 " When he told my mother what he had done she just about hit the ceiling. In the first place she said we didn't need a car, and more importantly, there were eight children to feed, buy clothes for, and shelter. On a coal miner's wages at that time, it meant a let of skimping and cutting corners to try and make ends meet. The irony of it all was that he had bought the car ',sight un- seen." When, he,.weeiteto bring the car home it wouldn't run on its own power - it had to be pulled home by a mule, and that is what I remember about my father and his first car.
