Service of remembrance
held by Howick pupils
Dear Ann Landers: This prob-
lem has bothered me for years
and I have been tempted to
write to you many times, Now I
feel I must, It is about my
mother.
Although I am a grown we-
man and have children of my
own, by mother is still the most
important person in my life. I
have always felt that she never
loved me and no matter how
hard I try to please her I some-
how fall short of the mark.
My sisters and brother prac-
tically ignore mother yet she
treats them better than she
treats me. She is always tele-
phoning them and going to their
homes (inviting herself, actual-
ly). I find myself begging her to
come to our home and she keeps
finding excuses, Mother does
not show the same affection for
my children that she shows for
the other grandchildren and it
bothers me terribly.
This mother problem is ruin-
ing my married life and casting
a dark cloud on everything.
Pleese tell me what is wrong
with me and what I can do
about it. My husband sevs eerie.
get it." but this is easier said
than done.—UNLOVED DAUGH-
TER.
Dear Daughter: Your mother's
attitude toward you will never
change so I suggest that you
change your attitude toward her.
it will probably require profes-
sional help.
Emotionally you are still a
little girl yearning for mother's
approval. A therapist can help
you understand that it is your
mother who is inadequate not
you. When you are able to as
cept this, her indifference will
not bother you and you'll stop
trying to curry her favor.
Dear Ann Landers: I have
noticed lately that whenever my
wife , has, a cough she is in un-
usually, good spirits. She's gay
and peppy and wants to kick up
her heels. Yesterday I discover-
ed why. The cough syrup she
takes contains a high percentage
of alcohol. I figured it out when
I saw her go to the medicine
cabinet and take a hefty swig of
the stuff. I notice too that she
keeps taking the syrup even
after the cough disappears. She
says it makes her feel better.
Neither one of us has ever
used tobacco or liquor, We have
been married 32 years and have
gotten along just fine without
it. Do you think this will hurt
my wife? Please advise.—RA-
THER SURPRISED.
Dear Rather: I don't know
the alcoholic content of that
cough syrup but I do know that
medicine should be measured
and not swigged. I suggest that
your wife tell her physician

what she is doing and let HIM
decide if it is harmful.
Dear Ann Landers: A recent
letter in your column convinced
me that you not only know the
score, you also know the names
of the games and how a lot of
those games got started.
I am 21, not handsome, no
lady killer, and never had a
great gift gab. Yet I remember
very clearly that when I was in
my senior year in high school,
not one but three girls (one was
15 years old) all but dragged
me to bed.
I was a lot luckier than that
poor guy who wrote, but I real-
ize it was only luck and I am
not asking for a good conduct
medal. What happened to him
could have happened to me.—
MOONFACE.
Dear Face: Don't throw away
that horseshoe yet, Buster, it
could STILL happen. Thanks for
writing.

For the thirteenth year Wing-
ham householders responded to
the appeal for funds for U.N.I.
C.E.F. on Hallowe'en. The
total collected by the C. G. I. T.
members and sent to the com-
mittee was $191.94, the highest
total since 1960 when $255.00
was received. 'Several house-
holds save their pennies through-
out the year for this worthy
cause. The C.G.I.T. would
gladly supply the distinctive
Unicef boxes for such a purpose
and they thank all who contri-
buted this year.
Since its founding 21 years
ago UNICEF has helped equip
more than 550 teacher-training
schools and more than 8,900
associated primary schools;
about 390 vocational training
schools for young people; 2,200
mothers' clubs and nearly 690
day-care centres; more than
300 training institutions for wel-
fare workers; over 5,100 schools
to establish gardens or canteens.

Mrs. N. T. McLaughlin of
53 Patrick Street was remem-
bered by friends, neighbors and
her family last Friday, Novem-
ber 10 on the occasion of her
80th birthday. She received a
number of cards and letters,
gifts and flowers ,and several
people called at her home
during the afternoon and even-
ing to offer their congratula-
tions.
She was born and raised in
Fordwich, a daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. A.C. Hutchi-
son. It was there she married
Norman McLaughlin, also a
native of Fordwich, on January
12, 1916, who died last year
shortly after their 50th wedding
anniversary.
Mr. and Mrs. McLaughlin
farmed near Fordwich after
their marriage and later in
Turnberry. They moved to the
treat more than 23 million
children for yaws; helped treat
over 24 million children for
trachoma; helped treat more
than 250 thousand children for
leprosy. More than 800 thous-
and children were under treat-
ment at the end of 1966.
Everyone who contributes is
thus a shareholder in a vast
world organization that cares
for people.
Before the UNICEF drive the
girls held their annual Hallo-
we'en costume party. The
judges, Mrs. R. Ritter and Rev.
H. W. Hamilton, appreciated
the effort and ingenuity the '70
girls showed in creating their
weird and wonderful "garb".
The one dressed in the most
original fashion was Karen
Sutcliffe as a butterfly. Frances
Ducharme as a Mexican, and
Debbie Gibson as Mary Poppins,
were awarded the national and
pretty prizes. Cathy Ross as a
cat wore the best Hallowe'en
costume and Carol Higgins was
most completely anonymous.
Two Hippies, Janette Riley
and Patti Kechnie were award-
ed the couples prize.
Each group conducted a
Patrick Street home over 20
years ago.
Mrs. McLaughlin has four
sons, Art of Larder Lake, Keith
of Wingham, Muir of Sarnia
and John of Ottawa, and one
daughter, Miss Meta McLaugh-
lin of Brampton. She has six
grandchildren.
Miss Meta McLaughlin and
Muir spent the week-end with
their mother.
