C. Bending, President, The Canad- ian Council of the Blind, "That is why we have chosen for the theme of White Cane Week, 1953, "I Would Help You," When asked how blind persons could be expected to help the sighted, Mrs, Bending told how a couple where the husband was blind, solved the nightly problem of the dinner dishes. The husband who .wasn't very fond of washing dishes, enjoyed reading, so sug- gested that if his wife would wash the dishes, he would read her a story in Braille while she worked. Not every blind persons reads Braille well enough to make a similar arrangement, but all can find some way to help in the home. The C.C.B. president went on to tell of a blind woman who was given the task of directing a candy sale in aid of a Sunday School, She did very little of the work, but brought to the task her per- sonal enthusiasm, and organizing ability, which, together with the active support of all who helped, resulted in a very successful pro- ject. Mrs. Bending further stated that this complete co-operation can t e achieved only when blind and sighted alike reach a closer under- standing of the other's viewpoint. EUCHRE and CARD PARTY Sponsored by 100F No. 83 and Rebekahs WED., FEB. 11 in the Odd Fellows Hall CARDS START AT 8.15 LUNCH WILL BE SERVED Silver Collection In aid of Cancer, Polio and Tuberculosis Everybody Welcome Through its service programme, The Canadian National Institute for the Blind is constantly striv- ing to assist sightless Canadians in their effort to take their right- ful place in home and community. Through its member clubs, The Canadian Council of the Blind constantly seeks to encourage blind people to develop a social and recreational life and to be- come more acutely conscious of the problems of their fellow blind. "Each year, during White Cane Week, these two national organi- zations join forces to tell their seeing friends about the co-op- erative success of the blind, and to develop better understanding of their problems. The 1953 slo- gan "I Would Help You" might well be a permanent one. It re- minds the blind that they must always be the recipients of kind- ness, and, at the same time, ea- presses appreciation to the public for past courtesies and considera- tion."

While you are taking bar home ask her if she would be busy that night. If not, ask her if she would like to go out to lunch with you or maybe she would rather go dancing or playing tennis, If she tells you'her name, make some nice compliment about it, tell her she has a sweet name or some- thing like that. When you reach her home say, "See you tonight, Clinton News-Record DEAR SIR; Recent articles in certain of tile city newspapers re conditions in Huron County under the Canada Temperance Act, call for a reply. These articles would insinuate that the abuse of liquor is very bad in Huron: worse than in counties un- wdeer btheleieLveiquisor eCnonptarrtol Aefct.prThepies., ganda by the liquor interests to get rid of restrictive measures, like the CTA. Why do the liquor interests always fight restrictive measures like Local Option, the CTA, etc., if these restrictive Measures do not curtail the con- sumption of liquor? Oh, they say, those terrible boot- leggers! Where do the bootleg- gers get their supply anyway 9 from the Brewers and Distillers. Certainly only a small fraction is made in illicit stills. The public has learned to be very careful of using "swamp" liquor. A glance at some bottles we have seen ly- ing around, will reveal the names of certain well-known firms that sponsor advs. in the magazines and newspapers. "The Trade" has broken the regulations in all laws that have been put upon the statute books of Ontario, They did not respect the old License Act in the days of the bar-room. The daily news shows they do not obey regula- tions today. The name "bar-room" got into disrepute so "beer-par- lours" was tried, but the sound was not so good. Then "beverage 'rooms", and even our "wets" say they do not want them back. Now it is "liquor outlets", but alcohol is still the same troublemaker. Recently our county gaol was empty, so that moral conditions in Huron are not so bad, as some allege. We should remember that we are only a few short years from the time of the beverage rooms in Huron. The appetites and habits formed then cannot be changed in a short time, especially when big profits can be made by catering to them. Reputable people who have come to live in Huron, say that moral conditions here in Huron are much better than they were in LCA counties, where they had formerly lived. The articles in the "Globe and Mail" spoke of indulgence among our 'teen-agers. Some of them are a problem and conditions are not all that could be desired. Certain- ly, they are no bigger a problem here than they are in open-sale areas. Especially in Toronto, 'teen- age gangs inflamed by drink, are a terror to some sections of the city. By quoting the remarks of some residents, the articles be- smirch the good name of Huron young people. This is all a part of the propaganda of the liquor interests, to discredit the CTA and have it repealed, thus giving a better opportunity to fasten the drink habit upon the young people of our county. Authorities tell us, that in Am- erica one man in ten will injure his life with alcohol; that one man in 20 will ruin his life by it. Just take a mental census of the area around you; make allowance for the fact you live in good old Hu- 'bye, .", if a date has been agreed upon. ASKINO. A OWL FOR A, DATE (By Hugh Colquhoun) Most boys, get all jittery when they mention girls. I wonder why? I wasn't nervous when I asked .Teotsie-Pie for a date. A little while before I was to ask her, I was fixing up my clothes and hair. I even had a bow tie on. I knew that she would be go- ing into a girl friend's place at ap- proximately half-past two for their daily chat, (lay the way, my name von; and you will find that it is approximately, too true. When one considers the ravages of the• drink evil; that some of the otherwise most likeable men we have met, have been, and are, victims, we should ponder the words of Ed- mund Burke: "All that is neces- sary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Should we not do all in our power to have our law observed and sus- tained? Thanking you and hoping I have not trespassed too much upon your valuable space, I am, Yours sincerely, ROBERT P, WATSON Brucefield, Ont. January 31, 1953. 'I'd just be delighted, Clem. Whell is lt?" She said this in her high- pitched voice, "It's next Friday night at dear old CDCI," I added, now having confidence in myself, Tooteie-pie, looking at her 22 carat geld watch, said, "Yes, go with you, but I think hurry on, now. Will you take my junk heap for me? The front bumper has a terrible dint in it and I want to get a new one anyway," Well, well, there I was coasting around in a new car with a fat but rich girl in my arms. Wow, she has a bank book with eight, nine numbers in it, That's ten million smacks, my boy, We arrived at the dance and, stepped within, with Tootsie-pie paying the way. Every-one gave a frightening gasp as we stepped on the dance floor, I don't know Why but I think they thought the floor would cave in. I can't guess why they thought that because Tootsie-pie only weighs two hued, red, thirty seven and five eighths pounds. As the building swayed and crunched under our tremendous weight, we danced and her bank book kept whirling around in my mind. Eight o'clock, nine o'clock, quarter to ten, we danced until I had to give up because my feet were so sore from being trampled on by that big elephant, When we walked into the lobby a flashy-looking fellow came up to Tootsie-pie and introduced himself. They talked for a while and then turned and walked away leaving me dumfounded and tongue-tied. I guess he was another prospector like me hunting for Tootsie-pie's bank book. 0 ST.

They are cozy, warm and colorful for children and teen-agers vilao never seem to have too many bats, caps, scarves, socks and mittens, Bright colors are the most popular with the younger set ... gay colors give a rich warm look to complement the basic costume. Many attractive articles are worked in all one color and trimmed with the popular and good looking cable stitch. Directions for Making the Cable Stitch When you are following a pat- tern for making a cable stitch you will see that there is a "twist front" and "twist back". It is easy to do this when you follow the directions for making the cable stitch. First of all you need your two needles plus an extra needle with points at both ends. Follow your instruc- tions for the knit and purl stitches until you come to your cable. If there are six stitches in the cable, you put the wool to the back of the work. Put the next 3 stitches from the left hand needle onto . the spare needle and place this needle at the back of the work. With the right hand needle knit the next 3 stitches from the left hand needle then put the 3 stitches from the spare needle back onto the left hand needle and knit these three stitches, This makes the cable, and because the 3 stitches on the spare needle were placed at the back of the work, it is called "twist back". To make the "twist front" put the wool to the back of the work, put the next 3 stitches from the left hand needle onto the spare needle and place this needle at the front of the work. With the right hand needle knit the next 3 stitches from the left hand needle. Put the 3 stitches from the spare needle back onto the left hand needle and knit them. Because the 3 stitches on the spare needle were placed at the front of the work, it is called "twist front". Dutch Bonnet and Matching Mitts This pretty hat and mitten set can be made up quickly for winter wear. It is knitted from heavy wool for extra warmth and the smart cable stitch is used for trimming. It requires 4 ozs. of wool for the set (2 ozs, each if made separately). If you would like to have a leaflet with directions for making the DUTCH BONNET AND MITTS, send a stamped, self- addressed envelope to the Needlework Department of this paper and ask for Leaflet No. CW-43.
