Gwyn New course offered for prospective •sitters apt ae la c& Just found out my marriage is on the rocks, I made this shocking discovery while under the hair dryer flip- ping through a magazine. A headline on a story asked, "Is Your's a Happy Marriage." "You bet", I answered smugly, That was before I'd read the questionnaire. For every 'yes' answer you scored 10 points • . for every `no', a zero. First querie was "Are you always truthful with your mate?" I certainly am not! It may be, as the article points out, that you can reap some thubla by fibbing to your husband, but it's not to be compared with the mess you'll get yourself into if you feed him pure, unadulterated truth all the time, When I tell my husband nothing but the truth, he, often turns as blue in the face I fear for his physical and mental health. But when I tease the truth a bit he's happy, contented and thinks I'm marvellous, Question 2: "Do you share his interests?" Not on your life. And a lucky thing I don't, It could be dangerous. Take last Saturday, Persuing two of his chief interests he drove to Toronto to see the Inter- national Tennis Matches in the afternoon and the Maple Leaf hockey game at night. Later, coming home through the storm he faced a little competition himself: While I was sleeping warm and United Church inducts officers An induction service was held Sunday in Exeter United Church for newly elected members of the Official Board. The members taking part in the service were Bernice Shipman, Ron Bogart, Lloyd Ross and Dr. Garry Baisdon who will serve the board on the Christian Education Committee; Debbie Higgins, Alf Andrus, Pat Skinner, Catherine Hartley and Shirley Ross who will serve the board on !he Worship and Music Com- a mittee; Richard Shoebottom and Art Gaiser who will serve on the Finance Committee; Iry Arm- strong who will serve on the Property Committee and Elsie 'l'uckey and Fran Shaw who will serve on the Membership and Visitation Committee. Robert Southcott was elected secretary of the Official Board. Mrs. Olive Harvey was elected treasurer and Bev Rabbets will take over the duties of envelope secretary for the organization. snug under my electric blanket he spent part of the night in a snow bank, walked through drifts up past his knees for help, tried shovelling a loosing battle against the wind, drove the rest of the way through treacherous, whiteout conditions to arrive home at 5 a.m. exhausted and frost bitten. Interests like that I can do without. He doesn't share mine either. In fact, he insists he'd look silly crocheting an afghan, Next question: "When he comes home from work do you greet him with a smile and a cheery bit of news'?" No. Mainly because he mostly gets home before me. He usually greets me with a gruff, "How come you're late, again?", as he manfully peels the spuds at the kitchen sink. (If this type of greeting is supposed to upset me . . , it doesn't. I'm just delighted he's right in there getting supper on the way.)' Question 4: Do you get jealous when another female makes a pass at your husband or shows him extra attention?" No, sir, I do not. I just realize there's somebody, besides me, with good taste and judgement, It would be a terrible blow to my ego if I'd married someone that no one else found interesting or attractive, Next, "Do you try to be a `whole person' for your husband?" That's the kind of an idiotic question that only an expert could dream up. If it means do I try to be virtuous on everything from world politics, high finance and community affairs to child raising and being a good wife . . , well, frankly, no I don't. Can't think of a fate worse for him than being married to someone who knew everything about everything. There'd be nothing for him to criticize or teach me and what fun would he have? And so it went all the way down the page. I scored only one yes . . to the last question. If they'd had sense enough to ask it at the very beginning they wouldn't have had to ask all the others. It. was, "Do you show affection and tell your spouse you love him?" Every day, Man, every day. The marriage counsellors are crazy when they try to make us believe that just because two people live together they have to be compatible on everything. Seems to me it's far better when they don't agree . that way they each can be experts in their chosen fields, Besides, marriage should be full of surprises and interesting. obstacles. Being married to one man for 50 years is a tall order for any woman, and expecting to be compatible at all times is just asking too much. Tolerant and patient, yes, but peaches and cream for a daily diet for half a century would get pretty sickening. So, if like I, you flunk out of one of those "marriage tests' don't w9rry. It's not the rocks in your marriage that's the trouble it's the rocks in the experts heads, Grandma Club We got another T-A grandma. Ila Thompson, head of the hookeeping department joined the club last week when her daughter had a baby girl, That makes seven of us. And a swingier group of grandmas you never saw, Only thing is the coffee breaks aren't quite long enough for us all to do our rightful share of bragging. Maybe our publisher will do something about that . • he should understand how it is . after all he's a grandpa, MINAMKOWIEMESEENV Meet your neighbour By SUSAN GREER Joanne Wallis has only lived in Exeter for three weeks, and already she and her husband, Donald, and her children, Kathy 9, Karen 6, and Kevin 1, like the town and all the people they have met, Mr. Wallis is a butcher and JOANNE VIALLIS recently started to work at the l,G.A, Joanne lived all her life in the small town of Wheatley, near Windsor. She said it was hard to leave, because all her family and friends are there. But it is only 130 miles away, so it's not too far to visit. Joanne said that one of her main worries about moving was the fact that Kathy, who is in grade four, had to change schools in the middle of the year. For one thing, French is taught in grade three here, while in Wheatley, it does not begin until grade five. But Kathy is having no problem catching up and is already very involved in Brownies and in school bowling and other ac- tivites, Karen, who is in kin- dergarten, was thrilled about moving from the start.

It only took Joanne one week to make her first cape, and once she made five capes in one month. The Wallis family are avid campers. Every summer, they pack up their tent and equipment and head north to Meaford for a holiday. "It is so nice for the kids to run around and play and it is very relaxing for us", Joanne said, If you hare a new neighbor or know of someone who has just recently moved to town whom you would like to introduce to the community, please let us know.
