Speaking of robins, a correspon.

"No Housing Problem"
"He builds without priority
At home beyend the strife
Of C.I.O. authority
For himself and wife,
He • hops about his neigh-

To market, while his wife
Flutters about their nest to
guard
And warm the coining life.
And when the mouthk are
opened wide '
For, a fat squirming meal
Joy and security abide
In this straw domicile."

Last week we lied a variety
of experiences. While it was
still cold we ordered an extra
ton of coal—to be delivered
early, before the frost was out
of the ground, The coal was
sent up in a one-truck, Instead
of staying on high ground the
driver, took a wide turn in the
field, dropped into a dead-fur=,
row and got hopelessly mired.
He sent fora big truck to pull
him out. The big truck got
stuck, Then along came the
manager to supervise the pro-
ceedings, He left his ear in the
lane. Partner came along with
gravel, ashes, boards and an
extra logging chain, At long last
they were extricated bu to get
out of the field they had to
come over a low spot—they got
stuck again. This time a tow-
truck was sent for, About two
hours from the' time the 'pickup
c4ite 'in, the ear .and the three

,",Dear Anne Hirst; For, two
years I have been ill with an in-
curable disease, and for many
a year I suffered without know-
ing the cause. During- all our
marriage (29 years) my hus-
band has always been nnsympa-
, thetic and critical. He has nagged
incessantly, finding fault with
me about inconsequential thinge
and keeping me nervously upset.
He, is so jealous he has accused
Me of dating my own relatives!
Incidentally, he elves me no
spending money; I have to buy
my own clothes, fortunately, I
have a small income.
"I have raised five wonderful
children (all are married) and I
am proud of them. I worked
hard for the first 12 years to
help pay for our home. I have
exercised all the patience I could
in order to have peace, but noth-
ing has softened my husband's
carping,...
"For years I've read your col-
umn every day, and I have had
her a bear-hug, which Honey
graciously :permits., And then
they play ball together .. Honey
always did love to play ball.
But- that ball is hers and she
won't let. Dave have it. So, while
resting , between capers, Honey
lies with it between her front
paws.' But Dave ,is just as cute;
watches - his opportunity and
.when, .1-foney half asleep he
creeps up and snatches the ball
away
' When Ilaughtet goes shopping
she has Dave with his harness
„ in one hand sand Honey on a
leash ,in the , other. I imagine
she'has quite a time. Last night
Bob 'and Joy were in Toronto
and Honey did her hula-hula
wiggle the minute she saw Bob.
',Dee "thinks she will probably
go crazy .the, first time, I show
up, But I don't know . . . Honey
is happy with anyone who will
make a' fuss 'of her.'And; in spite
of•the fact that she- is in a city
.home,. I imagine, with Davey's
help Honey gets more exercise
Many years ago, in the late
eighties, the IcliilAdelphia Na-.
tional League team had a first

This was his little daughter., a

father, .Sid Farrar.
As the girl gre,w older,' the
• father and ,his. friends realized
that she was' an exceptionally
gifted vocalist, So Sid made it
his life's, purpose to provide the
child with a musical education
at no 'matter what cost and „sac-,

Sid began to ,figure .out ways
and, ineanse.to''raise the money:,

lie -played hard and put aside
every cent that he could above'

lie earned above his needs went.
to the . little • girl's musical ed.ue ,
cation. Still, it wasn't enough.'
Sid's team-mates . on the Philly' '
team became as interested in the
little girl's career • Be her father. -
they held locker-room confer-
ences to figure out how Sid Far-
rar could earn more money than
his baseball playing paid him.
And one day they stumbled on
a elan.
The Philly ballplayers decided
to collect all the tinfoil they
could find and bring it to their
team-mate Sid Farrar who, in
turn, could sell it. Wherever the ..
team went, they collected pieces
of tin foil, Often before and after
games, the players, and Sid Far-
rar searched through the stands
for stray pieces of the foil.
Soon the fans learned of the-
way that Ski Farrar and his -
team-mates were trying to earn
extra money to pay for the girl's
musical education. They decided
to help out, too. They went
around picking up tin foil and
saving it and sending it in to
plover Sid Farrar.
The result was that veritable.
bales of tin foil were delivered` --
daily' 'the Philly first base-
man. The revenues derived from .
its sale became a material aid
to his daughter.
The work of. Sid Farrar and
his teammates, and the fans of-
Philadelphia was far fi-om• -

With all the various things-
there have been to comment on- •
just lately, like 'winter Weather
and summer thunderstorms, I
seem to have, forgotten one or
two changes that have taken
place at Ginger Farm as a direct '
result of Tippy's death. The
first was a realization that we
must have another dog — a.
watch dog, The next problem .
was the kind, and where to get
it. We thought we had solved "
it by making. arrangements to
adopt a year-old collie whose
owners had sold their farm and
were moving to town, But it
didn't 'Work. The dog would not
make friends at all and since he
had never been tied up nor even
had a, collar on, it was hard to
know how to handle him, or
how to keep hith from miming
away' before he got • accutomed
to us. So we had. to let the young
lad come and take him home
again. We were sorry because
he was a lovely dog -- if we
could have trusted him,. Pre-
vious to this, Dee and Art had
taken. Honey to Toronto, think-
ing we could handle one dog
better than two.. So n'ow we
haven't a dog at all.
The breed I have always
wanted if. we had to get another
dog was a Welsh Corgi—but
hove or where to get one is the
question. Corgis are not too
common in Canada. We, could
get a German Shepherd quite
easily but we area little afraid
of not being able to train it pro-
perly. `So here we are sitting on
the fence, -undecided whether to
get a puppy, a half-grown dog,
Corgi, a collie or a German
shepherd.
In the meantime Honey has
settled down quite happily in
Toronto, much to Davey's de-
lights Dave loves toe put both
arms around. Honey and give

AT THE END"
BEYOND ENDURANCE
* The responsibility of raising
* such a large family has been
* your only incentive,, I expect,
* to put up with your husband
* all these years, There comes a
* day when even a woman of
* your courage can, take no more,
* Send for your children and
* discuss it frankly, Long ago
* they must have known how
*- Callous and cruel their father
* was, so you should have their
* sympathy and moral support
* to put an end to this unbear-
* able situation, Your physical
* suffering is enough to bear
* without being exposed to hus-
*'band's heartless persecutions
* and suspicion,
* He should be advised of the
* nature and extent of your
* disease, and your physician
* is the one to tell him; He will
* remind him that unless he
* ceases his inhuman behavior
* your health will deteriorate
• more rapidly. What you need
* is tenderness and understand-
* ing, and your husband is the
* one to supply them, Whether
* after all these years he will,
* only he can prove. If he re-
* fuses to try, then your children
* should take things into their
* own hands and see that you
* are protected from any fur-
* then indignities
* This is the time you need
* sympathy and kindness. If your
* husband will not, ,give them,
* then these children- you are
* so prqud of cannot, in all
* decency, refuse to supply the
* need. I have no doubt they
* will act swiftly in your de-
* tense.
* It is deplorable that a man,
* can be so heartless to the one
* he is supposed to love the most.
SHY BOY
"Dear Anne Hirst: I'm in high
school, and there is a boy there
I like real well. By his actions I
know he likes me and he tells
ray friends so. But lie is so shy
he just can't say anything!
"This has been going on, for a
long time. What can I do? I'm
Afraid to start anything for fear
he might get the wrong iimpres-
sion. UNSIGNED"
* A shy lad .is self-conscious,-
* so be careful not to make any
* move that could embarrass
* him. Of course you could in-
* vite a few ciassmates in for an
.* evening and include hiin,
which gives him the chance
e* to ask to come again. ,
Why not trust to his pres-
Po exit liking for you and let
'7*. things ride as they are? Going
* with other boys is always
* helpful; it proves ,you are at-
* tractive and it should stimu-
* late his eagerness to know, you,
* better. He will outgroW his
* shyness one day, and if you
* have been cordial meanwhile
* he should naturally turn to
* you.
