"Dear Anne Hirst; About this
time last year, I wrote you of
my weakness. Though I loved
my husband, I almost went
overboard for another man and
I was so confused I didn't know
where my heart was. I wrote to
you, and this is a tardy ack-
nowledgment of your under-
standing counsel . . .
"Thank goodness, my husband
never knew. But my sense of
guilt persisted, and for the past
year I have devoted myself to
him in new ways I found to
make him. happy. That has
brought me the reward you as-
sured would come, and has giSr:,,
en our marriage new meareee
Ing e Bless you for your help._

* I share with you the happi-
ness you have today, and appre-
ciate your telling me of it. The
counsel I offered was not edsy
to follow, but you had faith
and courage, and now you have
found the peace you lost for a
little while.

It is not wise usually to in-
terfere between a 'woman friend
and the man she loves. Once
you give your opinion, relax
and let her go her way. When
you are perturbed, write Anne
Hirst about it, and be certain
you will have her best judg-
ment. Addrees her at Box 1,

Are Most Animals
Colour Blind?--
Are most animals colour blind,
or blind to certain colours? To
find the answer to this question,
scientists plan to conduct a 4eries
of harmless, experiments in the
United States this summer.
It Is already known that feW
dogs have a sense of colour, House
dogs show no preference for a red

no curiosity whether their owners
wear bright-coloured or dark elothea.
Cats seldom seem to distinguish
colours and show no partiality for
bright hues.
Monkeys are believed to see prac-
tically the same colours as people.
At the University of Wisconsin

about what took place over the
last week-end. Wednesday, Thurs-
day and Friday plans are under-
way for the week-end ahead.
Weather forecasts are based on
the possililities of rain or shine for
pleasure seekers from Friday to
Sunday night. You must have
heard it quite often — "And now
for the week-end weather report."
Except on farm broadcasts we hear
very little about what is happen-
ing on the farms because of the
continued wet weather. So long
as it's find during the day and for
the week-end that's all that mat-
ters. The other day one newscaster
giving the "probs" said this: "And
the weather . . . mostly fine but
with the possilility of heavy _show-

night so it shouldn't be tale bad,"
