Not Necessarily Pickled
Shirley Keller
When I was a very little girl,
i my mother used to say,
! “Shirley, if you want to make
•g man happy someday, you’ll
have to learn to preserve.’?
Well, someday has arrived,
and I’m trying desperately to
make my man happy - but it
takes more than a few shelves
of piekies, I’ve found.
That garden we planted this
spring is producing the way
you’d expect it should if we’d
fertilized it, but I purposely
discouraged my husband’s re-
peated suggestions that we liven
up the soil with chemicals. I’ve
discovered I can get quite en.
ough work out of our plot of
garden ground without enlisting
man’s super knowledge of
scientific root-boosters.
I’m thankful now that I didn’t
allow any vitamins to be sprink
led on my plants. I have enough
headaches with the multitude of
beans, . cucumbers, beets,
peppers, tomatoes and corn
cobs our sickly soil is mother
ing.
This- week I’ve been called
upon to dispose of several boxes ‘
of raspberries, three baskets
of beans, a pail of cucumbers
and a half bushel of beets. Ac
cording to my mother’s theory,
I should have a deliriously de-
Red Cross
Swimming
Certificates
Red Cross swimming examin
ations were given at Clinton
Lions pool last Thursday after
noon and many local and rural
youngsters received badges and
cards upon successful comple
tion of their swimming courses.
Instructors Rolfe Cooke and
Ann McKibbon, both of Clin
ton, have been on hand daily
from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and
again from 5 to 7 p.m. to handle
the large number of swimmers
who have turned up for les
sons, Included have been 60
swimmers from Blyth who have
commuted to Clinton for the
opportunity of taking lessons.
On Tuesday, the August ses
sion began with another full
agenda planned, says recreat
ional director Doug Andrews.

crabs because there’s no time
to mend his socks or bake a
pudding. He’s not pleased be
cause, the icicle pickles are
crigp and in crocks; he’s mis
erable because I’ve no energy
left to help him trim the grass!
Men are marvellous crea
tures to have at your beck and
call — so strong when a couch
must be moved; SO brave when
there’s a mouse in the trap;
so handy when you need one
more dollar.
But men are a trial no woman
deserves to contend with when
she’s trying to stretch her day
to include eight hours of work;
three hours, of husband-assist-
ing; tliree hours of special meal
planning; three hours of going-
out time; an hour each as chauf
fer, tailor, messenger, lover
and gardener, ail in addition to
a full-time position as chief
babysitter.
I think I misunderstood my
mother’s admonition, I think
what she was attempting to
convey to me was that a woman
must learn simpjy to preserve-,
preserve time and energy for
her man; preserve love and
concern for her family; and pre
serve shape and sanity for hern
self,
And I thought mother meant

Careless Parents Cited
To Mishaps
dies and have a roll call every
twenty minutes “ even if you
have to remind yourself by
setting an alarm clock.
When one buddy dives, have
the other watch.
Instruct your children to walk
out, thep swim from deep to
shallow instead of swimming
from shallow to deep and pan
icking because they can’t touch
bottom.
Be dressed to save a life;
high heels or leg-binding slacks,
slow a potential hero.
If you’re engaged in conver
sation while supervlsinga small
tot, sit down with him. Putyour
arm across his chest and took
your hand under his opposite
armpit. The child has freedom
to play with both hands, but if
he leans over too far, your grin
gets wet before his nose does.
At the cottage, don’t leave
your small tot unsupervised for
a minute, Have him wear a
lifejacket while you unpack or
cook.
Never buy a life jacket that’s
too big. A child could slip
out of it while he’s in the
water.
Contribute
Unsuperylsed children ac
counted for at least 50 of the
360 drownings in Ontario last
year,
“Lifeguards have even com*
plained that they’ve revived tod*
dlers without their parents even
noticing them,’’ says safety
specialist; Hal Wright of the On
tario Department of Agricul
ture and Food.
“Apparently, some parents
feel that ’11'feguar‘ds are baby
sitters for their children plus
the to or 80 ethers jammed
into the swimming area who
are doing head-stands, hiding
under wharfs, prying wolf, or
even playing dead. What life
guard can be 100% accurate
in always saving your child in
time? Too often, swimmers
enjoying themselves floating
face down have resented the
lifeguard’s efforts!”
Because too many parents
get involved in conversation or •
fall asleep in the sun, Hal lists
his suggestions for lazy super
visors,
Don’t allow your children
near water - whether bathtub,
shallow or deep pool - unless
you are prepared to supervise
them.
, Make non-swimmers wear
life jackets when wading, (Un-
dertows in knee deep water can
drown adults,)
Establish the buddy system
among your older “good swim
mer” ’children; that is, make
partners guard each other.
Assign numbers to the bud-
The Canadian National Insti
tute for the Blind reminds par
ents that firecrackers are not
toys to be carelessly tossed
about by children. They should
be taught to safeguard their own
and their companions’ eyes by
careful handling of these dan
gerous missiles.

Drivers age 16 to 24 were involved in 74,500
accidents on Ontario roads last year—an in
crease of 12 percent over 1965. Fatal acci
dents claimed 660 lives in this group—an
increase of 10 percent since 1965.
Yet statistics show that drivers who graduate
from approved high school driver training
courses have fewer accidents ... far fewer
traffic violations*
This year, about 275 Ontario high schools will have driver instruction
courses approved by the Ontario Department of Education and the Ontario
Department of Transport. These courses are under the control of the local
school board and principal and do hot interfere with regular school classes.'
