ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS HELP YOUR TEENAGER LOSE WEIGHT I I your teenagers have a weight problem, they've probably tried every- thing by now — exercisers, miracle diets, crash diets, fad diets, starvation diets, diet pills, in other words they've run the gamut and nothing has seemed to work — at least not for long! These reducing schemes probably all appeared to be giving promising results at first but then something happened along the way and the whole idea collapsed. Th'e trouble with almost all reducing schemes is that they cannot do the one thing that is really effective. They cannot permanently change bad eating habits, To be fat is to be out! Thin is "in". Slim boys and girls in movies, television and fashion magazines are idolized and imitated. Teen- agers who are plump often become the butt of cruel jokes by the "in" group. The overweight teen loses pride in personal appearance. Those snappy young styles are not usually made for big girls. Boys, too, have thin( ulty finding anything more flattering to wear than belted slacks. The fat teen soon learns to loathe the sight of himself. A fat girl will avoid mirrors and try to put her appearance out of her mind as if to say, "If I don't see myself, nobody else will." And the fat teen often adopts a shrinking posture with hunching shoulders. For the overweight boy or girl, a normal social life begins to seem like an impossible dream. Mothers can help their teenagers lose weight — the secret lies in knowing how to use food properly to help their children grow and lose weight at the same time without having to live through the embarrassment of always being on some kind of diet. You can instill good eating habits without making weight reduction a nagging burden. One of' the first jobs is to make yourself aware of just how serious a problem overweight can be for a teen. My experience has shown that more than 25 per cent of teenagers weigh 20 pounds more than is considered healthy for their age, height,'and type of build. When you think of the enormous problems that adolescents have anyway and consider how many of them are also burdened with unsightly fat, then you realize how much misery excess weight causes. And remember, a teenager is more sensitive to what is happening than an adult. Still insecure and still struggling for self definition and independence, the teenager has, at best, ambivalent feelings toward parents and discipline. You will have to keep this in mind as you begin a positive weight reduction programme. (Adelaide Daniels isFoander & Director of Weight Watchers ofOntario Limited.)

They were asked to bring their garments and record books to the next meeting, 4-H Fluffy Flannels The 4-H Fluffy Flannels met at the home of leader Mrs.Wayne Tuckey recently. The other leader is Mrs. Bev. Skinner and the president is Bonnie Camp- bell; vice-president Susan Thompson, and press reporter Barb Ferguson. The girls answered the roll call by stating a technique they had learned from the Sleepwear course. They were shown how to set in sleeves, do slip stitching and sew on buttons and hem a skirt. Plans for Achievement Day were made. Many parents make the mistake of cautioning young children in the language of adults and then expecting them to behave accordingly. This may be an important factor behind' the high incidence of accidental poisonings and accidents in Canada. Cautioning a child is necessary, but can only be effective if done in the child's own language. The small child does not possess what adults call "common sense," but he can learn the meaning of safety in relation to the familiar things of his own world, such as toys, food and clothing. As an example, the child can be instructed not to touch or taste certain substances by warning that they will hurt him like hot water or fire, or taste like sub- stances he hates. Mothers often believe a war- ning of punishment is enough to stop a youngster from getting into trouble. But most young children do not remember warnings and often do not con- nect punishment with the Huron-Perth Presbytery of the United Church of Canada at a recent meeting unanimously passed a resolution that it "go on the record as opposed to the conduct of any funerals on Sundays." Some of the reasons for this resolution were extra work for clergy who are already very busy on Sunday leaving no time for family life, and make it necessary for UCW's to prepare refreshments if a reception is held. Also cited was the fact that in many other areas a decline of Sunday funerals is the trend. At the same meeting the members heard an invitation from the Bruce-Maitland Presbytery of the Presbyterian Church, "to examine possible areas of co-operative plan- ning , where so co-operation is feasible", Such co-operative work would affect churches in the north Western part of Huron County, The Division of Mission in Canada reported that at a Con- behavior that prompts it. Take the case of three-year-old Mark who was told by his mother that he would be spanked if he touched the top of the stove. Instead of looking for the real danger, Mark touched the hot plate while looking back over his shoulder to see if his mother was watching. Mark had not been warned, "If you touch the top of the stove you will burn your hand," He was not taught what the hazard was; all he was worried about was the spanking. Remember if you caution a child not to do something without explaining the danger, the child will think that he's been for- bidden to do something at- tractive and will do it as soon as his mother's back is turned. Doctors experienced in dealing with childhood poisonings and accidents, say such accidents occur most often during the ages of one and three - precisely that time when the child is acquiring a sense of perspective, exploring his surroundings and is in need of close parental supervision. ference held at Five Oaks on "The Church in Rural Society" there was considerable talk of 'Tent-Making Ministries', This The Division Professional Personnel reported that a call to the Rev. B.J. Robinson has been issued by the Thames Road Pastoral Charge, Rev. Robinson is presently serving in Newfoundland and if he accepts the call will replace Rev. Stewart Miner who will be leaving Thames Road at the end of June, An important item on the agenda in the afternoon was a study of the present call system. The methods by which churches hire ministers and ministers seek congregations, have not changed very much since Union in 1925. The delegates broke up into groups and each made recom- mendations of four problem areas relating to this subject. These suggestions will be sum- marized and sent to a central committee that will be con- sidering similar teem- Mendations from allPresbyteries acrosss Canada, Following an hour of cards at the Legion Hall, the Senior Citizens enjoyed a program of variety entertainment.

At this stage all potenfially poisonous substances, such as medicines, cleaners, polish soaps and other chemicals be stored on high shelves well out of their sight and reach. Medicines, particularly, should be kept in a locked cabinet away from children. Destroy unused medicines when treat- ment is completed, by flushieg them away. Household chemicals should also be used with extreme caution whenever youngsters are nearby. Many poisonings occur while mother is cleaning the house and doesn't notice the child's proximity to an open bottle of cleanser, or when she leaves the room for a minute to answer the phone or doorbell. .1
