TEL. 528-3532 Page 4 Wingham Advance-Times, Thursday, June 23, 1966 features from The World of Women Home and The Housewife Dear Ann Landers: Today is my mother's birthday and for the first time in my life I can- not give her a gift I had always managed to run in and hand her a little something I picked up at the last moment. Sometimes I didn't even wait long enough to have it gift wrapped. No matter what it was, shed smile and say, "You knew exactly what I wanted, didn't you?" Then I'd head for the door and she'd sigh, "I wish you could sit down and visit awhile, You are always in such a hurry." My stock answer was, "I wish I could, Morn-and I will one of these days, but right now I've got to dash. They're wait- ing for me." Well, "one of these days," will never come because Mom passed away last week. For the first time in her life she was the one who didn't have time. She went so fast I could only say, "I love you, Mom"- and I'm not even sure she heard me. I hope, through your column, I can encourage just one per- son to stop - no matter how busy he may be-and find an hour to visit with his mother. If only one person in your reading audience does this, Ann, it will be a wonderful gift to my morn. on this-her birth- clay.-A LOVING DAUGHTER. Dear Child: I wouldn't be a bit surprised if hundreds of readers followed through. Too many of us drift along from day to day, taking precious things for granted. A letter like yours can be an effective awakener. Thanks for writing. 0-0-0 Dear Ann Landers: I am a widow in my middle 30s. I can't discuss my problem with anyone-not even my doctor- because T live in a small town and he would surely guess the person I'm writing about. This woman and I have been ft-lends for many years. I al- ways enjoyed her witty con- versation and considered her bright and interesting. My husband died last year and now this woman will not let me alone. She has become so affectionate that it is em- barrassing to be in her com- pany. She can't keep her hands off me. When I am sittir.g across the room she stares un- til I could scream. Last week she suggested that I sell my home and move in with her which I find unthink- able. Perhaps I should tell you that the woman had a hyster- ectomy last year, Could this he the cause of her strange be- havior ?-UNEASY. Dear Uneasy: The operation could not have had anything whatever to do with her be- havior. Either she has homo- sexual inclinations or she is ELLIOTT'S BEAM LOUNGE COLD WAVE BODY PERMS HAIR COLORING MAIN STREET, WINGHAM Phone 357-2981 terribly lonely. Why socialize with anyone who makes you uncomfortable? Obviously this woman is driv- ing you right up the wall so be busy When she calls and avoid her whenever possible. She will catch the drift after awhile and leave you alone. o--o--o Confidential to Well - Bred and Proud Of It: I could see no evidence in your letter to indicate that you are well-bred. You have plenty of crust, how- ever, and I applaud the minis- ter who trimmed your sails. He wasn't out of line. You were. o--o--o Confidential to Tired of Go- ing Steady: What makes you think you are going steady? You are staying home steady. Get back in circulation and in- vite him to do the same. The present arrangement is unfair, unrewarding and uninteresting. o--o--o If excess drinking is wreck- ing your health or destroying someone you love, send for Ann Landers' booklet, "Help For the Alcoholic," enclosing with your request 20c in coin and a long, self - addressed, stamped envelope. All letters or requests should be addressed to Ann Landers, c/o Advance-Times, Wingham.

Remember, honey has the same sweetening power as sugar but also contains mois- ture. Thus, follow this hint from home economists at Mac- donald Institute, Guelph. When substituting one cup of honey for one cup of sugar, reduce the liquid by about a quarter of a cup. This can be done in puddings, custards, sauces and on baked fruits, In cakes, sub- stitute honey for not more than a third of the sugar. The bars at the sides of a baby's crib should be set close together so that the child can- not get his head caught be- tween them.

SNAP OFF ENDS It is a shame to waste the least little bit of asparagus but really worse to serve it with the least little bit of tough stalk at the end. An easy way to tell just where to make the break is to hold the stalk loose- ly and snap off the end instead of cutting it off. It will snap easily just where the tender part and the tough portion be- gins. Delightfully delicious, fresh Ontario strawberries are also an excellent source of vitamin C. Guest Shows.
