Dear Ann Landers Our
daughter who attends an east-
ern college was home recently
for a few days. We are
closely knit family and our
children have always felt free
to talk to us about any and
all subjects without embar-
rassment. This last batch of
conversations, however, left
both my husband and me be-
wildered and disturbed.
Betty (not her real name) is
fighting an uphill battle a-
gainst ninny of her girl friends
who are campus leaders. Some
of the brightest girls at school,
she says, feel that our colleges
should be realistic, admit that
there is a great deal of student
sew activity, and supply the
students with birth control in-
formation and contraceptives.
Betty is not prudish nor is
she a moralist. But she does
have high standards and a
solid sense of values. She says
she would be ashamed of her
school if contraceptives were
provided for students.
Betty's stand has made her
look like a freak. Her friends
insist that the demand for sex-
ual freedom is part of the cur-
rent social revolution. that her
Puritan philosophy went out
with the bustle, and that she is
somehow letting the team
down,
We tried to reinforce her
views, but of course we are
old fogies (almost 45) and I
doubt that we did much good,
We would appreciate it if you
would express your opinion.—
MOM AND POP.
Dear Mom and Pop: Your
daughter's friends are right
When they say our colleges
should be realistic about what
goes on—and I believe they
ARE. But being realistic and
caving in to the lowest com-
mon denominator is not one
and the same thing.
I believe that colleges should
provide information on ail sub-
jects. I would be less inclined
to worry about the student
who is well-informed than the
one Who is ill-formed or down-
right ignorant.
Supplying students with con-
traceptives, however, hardly
qualifies as education. Such
action amounts to an adminis-
tration endorsement of pre-
martial sex. If contraceptives
are made available officially,
students will assume they are
expected to use them.
Dr. Alan Simpson, president
of Vassar College, said recent-
ly, "The decision to participate
in pre-martial affairs is the
student's personal business.
Colleges thould not be asked
to assist students in danger-
ous experiments." I'm with

Dear Ann Landers; Please
answer a simple question:
When a mother dies do the
daughters-in-law share in tile
linen and silver and jewellery
and the better pieces of furni-
ture? Or are these items just
for the daughters?
Thank you.-- INTERESTED
ONES.
Dear Ones: Although it is
traditional for daughters to
divide the personal belongings
of their mother, daughters
who are considerate see to it
that the wives of their broth-
ers are not left out com-
pletely. After an, their child-
ren Aould have some heir-
looms too.
Who was it that said, "If
you want to know a person's
true character share an inheri-
tance with him?"

Home Helpers Are
Guests of VMS
The July meeting of the Wo-
men's Missionary Society of St,
Andrew's Presbyterian Church
was held in the fellowship hall
with 44 ladies attending,
The call to worship and
prayer were given by the presi-
dent, Mrs. T. Currie. After
the singing of a hymn, Mrs. W.
McKinney read the Scripture
and gave the meditation. Jacob
was desolate and needed help.
God sent a vision -- not be-
cause Jacob deserved help but
because he needed it, Often
when we find ourselves in deso-
late circumstances there is a
bridge for us between earth and
heaven, by which we can be
helped. In a very real sense
OM bridge is the very person of
the son of God -- Jesus Christ,
Mrs. McKinney said.
Miss L. Currie led in prayer
followed by a solo by Mrs. 0.
Casemore.
This was the Home Helpers
meeting and the St. Andrew's
group and the Whitechurch so-
ciety were guests.
The speaker was Mrs. Suth-
erland of Ripley, president of
the Huron-Maitland Presbyter-
ial. She spoke on the part wo-
men play in the life of the
church, recounting the part
played by women in the Bible
such as Pricilla, Lois and Eun-
ice, Dorcas and Phoebe. She
said we might follow the pat-
tern of these women and find a
place to work for Him. "Let us
give of our time and our tal-
ents," she continued, " and let
us examine our spiritual growth
so that our names may be writ-
ten in the Book of Life,"
The offering was received

land. Mrs, H. Bateman play-
ed a piano solo and Mrs. David

CHILD MAY NOT KNOW
HE HAS POOR VISION
Your vision is an important
part of your life, from infancy
to old age. Faulty vision can
affect your education, your job,
your enjoyment of life.
In many cases, only a minor
aid is necessary to bring the
world into focus, with all its
beauty and colour.
A small child may not know
that he is not seeing his world
as he should be seeing it but his
teacher may be the first to no-
tice his straining efforts to see
what is on the blackboard or in
the pictures he is shown, Any
signs of less than normal vision
should be given attention, as
early as the sign appears.
