Occasions Handcrafted Articles FRAN LOGAN, Proprietress ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS YOU CAN CONTROL OVERWEIGHT Overweight is a problem that's seen in practically every corner of the globe. Its dangers have been particularly advertised in North America, and we have lots of good reasons to respect the warning. The increased oceurence of diabetes, circulatory disorders, hypertension and other degenerative dis- eases among people who are overweight seems to be so common that there's little arguing about it, In almost very case, dangerous excess weight is due to overeating, There may be modifying factors, but overweight people are usually overweight simply bectiuse they consume more food than they need, or the wrong kind of food. Perhaps your reason for wanting to lose weight goes not deeper than a desire to look better, wear more attractive clothes and be more admired. But the benefits in health, increased vitality-and long life are immeasurable, Whatever your reason for wanting to lose weight, you can get thinner and stay thinner, And you can do it without giving up the pleasure of good and satisfying foods, it's just a matter of retraining your palate and thou- sands of people will tell you that it's one of the most rewarding things they have done in their lives. May people even find that they arc enjoying their food more than ever before. Instead of masking the flavor of meats, vegetables and fish with rich sauce, you can learn to cook them carefully and simply so that the true taste comes through. Instead of smothering fresh fruits with spoonful after spoonful of sugar, and billows of whipped cream, you can discover them as they are with all their fresh, tangy, tingling flavor. Even coffee and tea become newly enjoyable to most people when they stop adding cream and sugar. Try it, and after a few days you'll wonder why you ever thought that the flavor of your favorite beverage could pos- sibly be improved by those additions. Think' twice before you make alcohol of any kind a regular habit. Besides contributing calories in surprisingly concentrated form, it stimulates your appetite to eat excessively, Food is one of our simple pleasures, but if you let its use get out of hand it can become a bad taskmaster. Learn to enjoy the foods that are good for you, cat them with discretion, and you will not only look and feel better but enjoy your meals more.

We have our community projects—we have our successes and our failures. This month we're having'e bike- a-than. Despite the fact that people are getting sick and tired of these marathons to raise money for everything from starving children to bus trips, we've planned a bike-a-thon, Why? Because it is one of the fastest and most fun-type ways to raise money that we've found in a long, long time. We're raising funds for cancer this trip out, To be perfectly truthful, that's the only cause for which I've ever put myself out to any greatextent.l believe cancer can be beaten and I'm willing to work at making that dream come true. 'bought a bicycle of my own for this year's event. I think every household should have a bicycle. At least that was the argument I used wheal set about to convince my family I should purchase a bike. My children agreed—providing the bicycle I bought was one of those low-slung, long-seated, high-handlebarred affairs. I balked. Imagine me making an unnecessary number of pump strokes on such a tiny little bike when I could make a few long strokes on a standard-type bicycle and get just as far, Besides that, the fancy bike costs a much prettier penny than the standard bike. As far as I was concerned, there was no decision to make. My husband thought it was a silly idea to buy a bicycle unless it BUYING? SELLING?

BY SHIRLEY l<F11—ER was a man's cycle in a man's style painted a manly color. I balked again. The idea was mine. It was only fair that I should select the sex and color as well for this "family" bicycle, As it eas turned oet, the bicycle isn't any more a family bicycle than you would imagine. My .children or my husband won't be caught dead riding it.„so it is all mine fares togas 1 want to keep it. There's only one hitch now before I take off on the bike-a- thon, I've got to get in shape, I've really got to get out on that bike for a couple of swings around the block before I attempt that ten- mile hike, Ten miles doesn't sound like much mileage on a bicycle, For an aging lady like I am who doesn't do much more than wash dishes and punch a typewriter, it seems like the endurance course in the long- distance run at the Olympics. Last year I went the full course easily. That was because I was a year younger and more foolish. This year I have the memories from last year's sore sit-me- down to hold me back. I'm not the inexperienced little nitwit who took off with such confidence last year, I know the ropes this year and I'm not looking forward to that week of stand-up typing and telephone answering which will follow the bike-a-thon. I have only one question to ask of the wonderful folks who organize these fund-raising marathons...or campaigns of any kind. Why do they have to be within eight weeks of each other in the spring? Why can't they be spread out through the year? The other night I was at home for the first evening in several days. I sat down to watch a movie...a luxury I can't afford too often, The door-bell rang. It was the Red Shield canvasser. The lady stated her business forthwith. I have sympathy for the Salvation Army, Canvassing is not easy or pleasant. I made my donation willingly and went back to my movie. A few minutes later a little boy came to the door. He was selling tickets for a school trip in June for his class. A tousel-haired kid with pleading eyes? Who can resist? I bought my ticket and sat down again with my movie. Not long afterward, I heard the doorbell. I refused to answer it. My son came in, "Canvass time again, mom," he chirped. It was the Cancer Fund. No argument this time either. I gave my donation. This week, I'm pounding the beat, asking for sponsors for a bike-a-thon...for cancer, yet. People are generous. It is difficult not to be. But surely we can all be better organized about our timing.

Mr. Smith, president of Northlander Mobile Homes was chosen at the group's annual meeting in Winnipeg. He succeeds D.J. Gendall of Edmonton, Alta. Mr. Smith noted that acceptance of mobile homes as a form of low cost housing in Canada is very evident. The number of Canadian made mobile homes sold in Canada rose from 9,0.00 in 1970 to 15,000 in 1971. The acceptance of double-wides was evident during the past year as the numbers sold rose from 400 in 1970 to 1,200 in 1971, Double-wides are two 12 foot wide units placed together, side by side, to give a 24 foot wide home, Most double-wides are 60 feet in length and the square footage is approximately the same as conventional three bedroom bungalows. Mr. Smith also noted that the mobile home percentage of single family dwellings increased from 14.8 per cent of the market to 16.2 per cent during 1971. He remarked that this has happened because of our construction standards (the Canadian Z240 series.)
