ADOLESCENT PROBLEM
"Dear Anne Hirst: I am a
young man 19, and for a long
time I've liked a girl three
years younger. Our friends kid
us all the time and she never
denies anything, but I know
it makes her self-conscious. I
just have to guess how much
she likes me.
"I date a few other girls just
so our friends will not guess
that. I like her best. What is
the best thing to do until -she
shows how she feels about me?
. . . Thank you for your column.
I know you've kept me out of
trouble more than once.

For the Home
If homes were as safety-con-
scious as industrial plants hun-
dreds of serious accidents could
be prevented each year, accord;

Children, especially, are often
exposed to far worse hazards than
those normally encountered by
a 'worker in a modern plant, he
claims. Curiosity can be a child's
worst enemy, especially when it
temets him into .icabinets under
kitchen sinks which often hold
dangerous chemicals, Such clean-
leg aids as solvents, \witching
soda, lye, spot remover, javel
water, silver polish and liquid
floor wax should he taboo in
these lower supboards.
Another housekeeping al d
which should be kept away from
small children is very thin plas-
tic sheeting, Dry cleaners are now
returning cleaning in plastic bags
which can be saved to serve as
garment covers in clothes closets..
However„ these should not be
used to cover a mattress on a
child's bed or given to him as a
plaything, The very thin plastic
mieht cling to a small child's fare
covering his mouth and nose and
smothering him.
Matches and poisons cause hun-
dreds of serious accidents to chil-
dren each year. There are many
safety precautions that can be
taken to prevent. these tragedies.
Medicine cabinets, for instance,
should have locks which small
children are unable to open. And
all drugs should be kept in this
cabinet and not on bedside tables
or kitchen shelves 'within the
reach of small children,
For general family 'protection,
label all. medicines carefully.
Never store other materials be-

cough medicine.
No matter how careful people
try to be in removing articles
dangerous to children; there may
be something overlooked which
the young fry a.re; bound to find.
It's best to know what to do im-
mediately if 'a child is suspected
of swallowing sofnething that
might be poisonous. Here's what
Dr. Haslarn suggests: Try to pro-
Mote vomiting and then call a
doctor right away. Diluting the
contents of the stomach will de-
lay absorption of the poison so
encourage the child to drink as
much Milk or water as possible.
However, never attempt to give
fluids to an Unconscious patient,
advises Dr, Haslarn.
Some poisons paralyze the
breathing mechanism, Artificial
respiration must be started at
once if breathing stops. And fin-
ally, if you live hi or near a
city, rush the child to the hoI-
pital,

Every woman loves tp change
things around in her home once
in awhile. Every man likes things
left just the way they always
have been. So, if any changes are
to be made the woman has to be
very diplomatic, making the
operation as painless as possible
to the man of the house. We have
just come through such a period.-
- with very satisfactory results,
When we first moved into our
present home Partner and I took-
the front bedroom for ourselves..
The 'second bedroom was our
guest room. , For it we bought
honey-maple twin beds. The room
was light and airy and looked
very comfortable. The third room
was mostly den, with a roll-away
cot for convenience. It, is gen-
erally called "mother's room" be-
cause 'I make •the most use of it
— for typing,' sewing and read-
ing.
Our first visitors here were my
sister and her adult son. So there
we were with two good beds but
only one guest room. We made
up a bed for Klemi in the base-
ment. Other visitors followed --
sometimes a husband and wife,'
or a mother with children, or
sometimes, a single guest, Our
guest rooter•seemed quite ade-
quate. I .didn't .realize we were
actually short of accommodation
— not until this spring when we
were again faced with' mother
and son complications, worse than
the first time as we 'had given
away our basement bed and the
roll-away cot was too narrow for
adult comfort.
What to do, that was the
question, I would lie awake at
night pondering the situation I
finally came up With an answer,
It was then, and not 'til then,
that I broached the subject to
Partner, In theory the solution
was quite simple but involved
unwelcome changes and a lot of
unnecessary work — that is, from
a Man's point of view. After ex-
pounding on the idea for about a
week I finally got Partner to
see the light, So , . last Wednes-
day was moving day.
We turned the striall mere into
a spare room with only one bed
plus the roll-away cot. The mid-
dle room became the den in
which We left one of the twin
beds, Sounds simple, doesn't it?
But you don't know what is in

Big Narcotics
Suspects Trapped.
It was 1 a.m. and sultry in the
Montreal suburb of Pointe aux
Trembles; at the garish Motel
Jacques Cartier, a convoy of cars
pulled up and let out a band of
big, quietly dressed men. A bald-
ing, pudgy motel guest cursed
fervently as the introduers burst
in, then submitted to a frisk.
Other visitors took on his room-
mate, a younger, more imposing
man, who put up a fight before
subsiding. R.C.M.P, raiders thus
climaxed a four-year investiga-
tion (carried out with U.S. nar-
cotics agents) by the arrest of
Montreal Hoodlum Giuseppe
("Pepi") Cotroni, 39, and his
lieutenant, Rene ("Bob") Rob-
ert, 33.
They were big fish, said Sam-
uel Levine of the U.S. Bureau of
Narcotics in Manhattan. Cotroni
("He's illiterate, but his arith-
metic is good") has been for
years practically the biggest sin-
gle supplier of dope to New
York, although his normal chan-
nels of distribution were disrupt-
ed by the ,police investigation
that followed the 1957 discovery
of a gangland convention at Apa-
lachin, N.Y. ,Cotroni, whose en-
terprises include an interest in
a flashy Montreal drive-in café
called The Bonfire, got the dope
off Montreal-bound ships, and
provided probably four-fifths, of
the New York supply of heroin.
Nine U.S. undercover agents
moved into Montreal four months
ago after a New York stoolie ar-
ranged for a personal 'introduc-
tion to Cotroni. After weeks of
credential checking by Cotroni,
one agent managed, in two deals
to buy 13.2 lbs of uncut heroin.
The dope was delivered in six•
plastic bags, each weighing , I
kilo — 2.2 lbs.: Price was $35,000
(in U.S. currency), $14,000 dui
by July 15.. If Cotroni was wor-
ried about the credit, he should
not have been. The money*was
supplied, fifty-fifty by Canada
and the U.S. All told, said, the.
Mounties, investigators had tak-
en possession of heroin,worth up
to $8,000,000 'at retail.
Cotroni. and qiobert have led
vivid lives. A pal of Cotroni's

And now even Partner thinks it
was a good idea. As a guest room
we like the smaller room better
— cosy and more compact. The
den is spacious, with better
lighting and can double as a
sleeping area for male visitors.
And do you know, the change-
over was made without a single
swear-word from Partner. As for
me I •was so tired I covldn't
sleep that night. Comments from
other interested parties — "I
wonder you, didn't think of it
before!"
That, as I have said, took place
on Wednesday. Thursday the fun
began outside. Township equip-
ment moved in for laying water
mains. Shovels, graders, pipe-
lifters and a gang of men were
soon noisily at work. Our drive-
way was excavated •and a piece
of road torn up in front of it so
pipes could be angled across to
the' other side. Just as the job
' had reached• the stage of ,shutting
us in a, piece of equipment broke
down and work was postponed
until next day. But somehow' I
had to get out to take a neighbour
and her child to the clinic. Their
driveway was clear. so Partner
filled in the ditch between our
two properties and I drove amiss
both lawns and on• to the road.
You couldn't see where I had
been the ground was so hard and
dry.
