She is cor- rectly addressed as "Sister Theresa." Q. Is it proper to send shower invitations to .women who will not be invited to the wedding? A.

CHILD'S PLAY Dyed ties look like Joseph's coat By BUROKER & HUNTSINGER They didn't call them psychedelic colors long ago when the King James Bible was written. But since then, people often refer to any bright, outstanding garment as being as vivid as "Joseph's coat of many Mors." This comes from the story told in Genesis, Chapter 37, In which Jacob gives his favorite son such a beautiful, colorful coati it became the envy of all his brothers. It seems people have al- ways enjoyed wearing deco- rative cola`s and thepopular modern fad of tie-dyeing is re- ally quite old.

Isn't a normal delivery always safer than an instru- m t one, say one where the bab, 's head is delivered by forceps? A. There have been argu- ments pro and .con with this subject. The conclusion prob- ably depends upon the partic- ular patient. There is one school of thought that says that the baby is in a better condition when its delivery is controlled than when it is . al- lowed a period of time to stretch the -mother's perineum. - If a woman is going to deliv- er in a hurry, there is usually not time enough to do much about it. Never is a baby held back forcibly. Sometimes an episiotomy can be made to prevent tearing of the moth- er's perineum. If the mother's contractions are so hard that they blast the baby out, there is danger of damage to the :baby's brain. Brain injury can also occur if this stage of labor is long and the baby's head pounds on the mother's perineurh for a protracted period. Many ob- stetricians feel that a low for- ceps applied properly can shorten this stress and result • in fewer complications. A study of 30,000 women seemed to show that there was a more favorable outcome for babies delivered by low forceps than those not, but, as mentioned above, with every case a little different, firm conclusions are hard to draw. Only the skill Ind experi- ence of the obstetrician is adequate to weigh all these factors and decide what is best in any given case. It's easy with the benefit of hind- sight to say perhaps this, or that, course of action would have been better, but, like the captain of a ship, someone has to take command and decide what will be done from ma ment to moment in a situation which is constantly changing. Q. I have heard that the uterus which holds the baby is like an upside down sack. If so, 'why doesn't the baby fall out? • A. The cervix, the mouth of the uterus, is closed, has only a small opening when preg- nancy begins, and, although it softens as pregnancy ad- vances, it remains closed un- til the baby is ready to be born and labor begins. This ar- rangement keeps the baby from falling out. The cervix and its opening do not enlarge like the uterus does during pregnancy. The effect is like - havingthe sack tied shut by means of a string in its lower portion. The contractions of the uterus during labor pull the muscle fibers in such a way that the cervix thins and di- lates and then the baby "falls out" when it is delivered. If there has been an' injury to tie cervix, or perhaps a de- ficiency of its nerve supply, it may dilate too soon and deliv- ery will then occur prema- turely. This complication is a rare one and can be corrected sometimes by putting in a cir- cular suture ( tie) to hold it closed until the baby is ma- ture enough to survive. There is some evidence now that in- duced abortions can injure the cervix so that subsequent pregnancies are harder to re- tain. Writing an ancient art in China Chia-ku Wen, the ideo-picto- graphs found on the `oracle bones" of the Yin -Shang dynasty which ruled China 3,500 Years ago, are the `oldest known form of China's written language. 'The style of writing is not like the writing of today, but slime 600 out of the 2,500 char- acters on the oracle bones are recognizable, suggesting that . as early as 3,500 years ago the Chinese already had a fairly sophisticated language sys tem. process makes unusual art projects ranging from wall hangings to bright covers for greeting cards. " The first step is to have wet fabric in order to assure a smooth, even . dye job. Any type of light cotton will do. Old T-shirts, discarded dish towels or light-colored mate- rial will be best. Part of the fun is experimenting with various textures. Thereareseveral commer . cial dye powders that sell un- der 40 cents in grocery stores, and they come in an amazing range of shades. One package will dye three pounds or three yards of cotton, the equivalent of a woman's dress usually. Follow the instructions on the package carefully while Klondike Days Sale 10 Days Only MEL.
