Home My WebLink AboutClinton News-Record, 1967-01-19, Page 3From My Window Daddy Has Morning Sickness , Shirley Keller Huron Presbyterian WMS Elect Officers/ Committees Jon. 19, 1967—Clinton News-Record-r-Page 3 DOES EdAY KEEHuJ Jt: is a well-known fact, espe cially among Canadian women, that Canadian men are the world's worst. .lovers. It was only recently that I learned that Canadian- males are also the world’s worst husbands and fathers. A, release, from the Canadian department of National Health and Welfare didn’t come right out and say so in -that many words. But the implication Was there that men m this nation haven’t the same feelings for heir wives and their families that the men in other countries have' for their brood. If seems a psychfitrist in Britain has noited that some expectant fathers suffer symp- toms of morning sickness, loss of appetite, abdominal pains, indigestion and colic without any apparent physical cause. Usually, the ailments begin when their waiting women are about three months pregnant. The complaints subside during....,..................................... the middle months only to re- occur in the ninth. month —- and with every subsequent pregnancy! The doctor says the condition may develop because dad is jealpus; or intensely sympa- tfoetis towards , mom; or just plaip scared that niomw. will loye baby more than daddy when the big' event takes place. Most fathers-to-be that I have eyer known suffer little more than a hangover from 'the nights out with the boys whilst Wife and newborn ape still con fined to hospital. Certainly Canadian papas are jeaipus when 'the laitltie mother is expecting his offsprtng-Lbut not of the baby, Dad envies Harry down the street'who has a Wife who. is' still able to help out at the store, or drive the kids to hockey praciiae or run swiftly and surely throhgh the house in search of his golf balls. Intensely sympathetic,. Cana dian fathers are not! They may be nervous or anxious — but never Sympathetic. If dad- dy-in-waiting gets $ stomach ache, it’s from. overeating at the pizza place on nights when mommy goes out. Morning sickness in pop can always be atributed to the night before —and loss of appetite inevitably follows the shopping -trip ■ for diapers and shirts and nighties. As for the bit about colie, most fathers in the land of the north, strong and free do not know what it is. As soon as 'baby is delivered safely, mom is home and nav.igating again, most daddies; consider their duty done. Child care, discip line and Welfare is left' to mother''. Pop merely observes from afar off, ever watchful that his 'Jord of the manor”, position is not challenged. But I don't know as I’d want a British-type dad around’ the house. I* can’t imagine any thing more depressing than a man who is suffering—even if it is just his imagination.

For years our Company has been interested in education projects, from the High School Science Programs to those at university level.. And now, as a Centennial Year project, the Fellow ship program has been established to support the further development of post-graduate education — one of- the urgent needs of the Canadian educational system. I was most interested to note that the fellowships will be truly a Canadian program. They are for exceptional Canadian students who plan to do graduate work in a Canadian uni versity or college. Beginning this year, 1967, this program will be administered by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada and will provide four new fellow ships each year to assist students to.achieve their educa tional objectives at a post-graduate level. And, there will be no restrictions as to the nature of the studies he success ful candidate may pursue. Preference, however, will be given to those subject areas which appear most directly relevant to the scientific, political, social or economic needs of Canada. We at Bell Canada hope that by commemorat ing the past 100 years in this way, we are also assisting some of the young Canadians who are the future of our country. * ♦ * , ■ I’ve decided to made an addition to my list of resolu tions for 1967. After hearing a brief run-down on the be wildering variety of projects which will help celebrate Canada’s Centennial/ I think I’d better take a deep breath and "igo into training” for the busiest, most-exhilarating and interesting year most of us will ever experience. From the sound of things no one should be able to' say “I’ve nothing to do” during 1967. The difficulty will, come in try ing to select the most interesting of the nation-wide pro jects in addition to our own local celebrationis.' Already the Confederation Train has begun its coast-to-cbast tour to bring Canada’s story* to 63 cities and the Confederation Caravans, which tell the same story, will visit 657 more communities. Ten teams ,of hardy Voyageum will follow the treacherous, 3,500 cross-country route Of the original Voyageurs between Alberta and Montreal. In the summer 13 teams of mountaineers will climb 13 of the highest un climbed, unnamed peaks in the ROckieis and name one for eaah province and the Northern7 Territories with the high est peak designated Centennial Peak. For sport enthusiasts^ the Pari-American games Will be held in Canada for the first time — in Winnipeg, July 22 to August 7. The RCSMP will stage special performances of their famous Musical Ride. And, of course, there is Expo 67 * the fantastic spectacle of Man and His World being held in Montreal front April 28 td October 27. Ex£>d people fed! that all roads will lead to Montreal this year as millions bf Cana dians' ahd their guests make visit to Expo 67 pant of theif Centennial Year plans. While you are there, I hope you will also visit the Telephone Association of Canada pavilion, which, I understand; is even how quickly nearing completion. There you Will see an exCiting film “Canada 67”. I’ll tbll you more about that in another column. ■Sounds like a fascinating year to be a Canadian, doesn’t if 7 I hope you enjoy just as many Of the Celebrations as you possibly can.
