MOBILIFE CENTRE 4166 -KING ST. E. R.R. 3, KITCHENER No. 8°Hwy. between Hwy. 401 and Kitchener 653-5788 �4DESTIONS WOMEN 'SK Why are some girls tomboys? By ELEANOR B. ROIDGERSON, M.O. Q. Do some girls have more male hormones than they should? A. The amount of male -type (androgenic) and female - type (estrogenic) hormones in a given woman varies — from person to person, from day to night, throughout the month, under stressful situa- tions. It is obvious that some females are better at sports than others and some d'e\relop more muscles and more ag- gressive attitudes than others. Hormone levels in all kinds of women have not been thoroughly tested. We know that where there are irregularities in the menses and sometimes absence. of menses, along with the male -type distribu- tion of hair over the body, • there is an increase in androgenic hormones. Obesity is also present. -This picture may be seen when there is a tumor of the adrenal gland, near the kid- ney, and when there are en- larged ovaries with-thiCk cov- erings that prevent ovulation. The abnormal cases have been studied because women complain of irregular peri- ods, or wonder ,why they are not able to get pregnant. The hormone levels of cases with no problems are largely unknown. It is usually hard to be sure whether a girl is a tomboy because of the way she is made, or because of the environment she is brought up in. Go Canoeing This Summer!

If a mother has a gonorrheal infection that she does net know about and it goes untreated, does she have to worry about the health of her baby? A. If a mother has an un- diagnosed gonorrheal infec- tion, the bacteria causing it are probably located in the cervical glands. When the cervix dilates during labor to let the baby through, these glands may free the bacteria which then can infect the baby's eyes ..As the; baby passes through the birth canal. For this reason the law requires application of silver nitrate, or antibiotic, a the baby's eyes to keep them free of infection. Q. is it all right to wash my hair during my menstrual peri'. ,; ? A. Of course. Nearly every woman notices changes dur- ing the menstrual period. Hair seems oiler and stringier. Keeping it clean boosts morale and is just as important as bathing the rest of the body. Q. My husband and I are seriously thinking of getting ourselves sterilized. We have two children and want no more. Which of us should do it? Which would have the fewer complications, or would there be any complica- tion? A. The first thing for you to consider when it coi'nes to sterilization procedures, be they blocking the Fallopian - -tubes in -the male, or the vas. deferens in the male, is the permanency of the operation. You should go into it with no reservations and no plans to try to get it undone sometime in the future. Reuniting tubes and vas have a high percent- age of failure. You have to keep in mind that the time may come when you want an- • other child. Then, when you fully real- ize that sterilization has to be considered a permanent pro- cedure, you have to decide which of you will have the op- eration. Vasectomy in the male' is simpler than closing the tubes in the female through the abdomen. How- ever, the female is the one who carries the child and, if sterilization is being done for reasons of health, it should be done on the one who needs protecting. Both operations have their possible complications, as any operation does. You should discuss the specifics . with your doctor. The overall safety is high and many thou- sands of ligations and vasec- tomies have been done with happy results. Neverthelessi it is wise not to rush into this surgery:hasti y' You can use some other form of contra- ception while you weigh the pros and cons.

Tel. 343-3100 KEEPING DRY— Who but a parent is likely to be around to make a picture Poke this young streaker still determined to keep dry? Sandi Jones has new son. Sandi Jones, the London host of the popular CBC Radio program Family Favorites has resumed her program duties following a brief absence to give birth to a new son, Mark, born January 25. Sandi, whose married name is Mitchener, met her husband Tony in Gibraltar in 1971 while she was working on the Rock for the British Forces Broadcasting Service. The Mitcheners now make their home in Kent, Eng- land. Family' Favorites has been on the air since 1968 and Sandi Jones became the regular host in 1973 taking over from Michael Aspel. But Sandi was not a stranger to Canadian listeners since she had acted as d "stand in" for Aspel whenever he was away or on holidays. The Canadian host is PHOTO FUN Take 'natural' children pictures Bill Paul, who has been with the "program ever since it began. Heard in Canada Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. EST, Family Favorites is - only a half-hour program in By GILBERT HILL - There are many different roads traveled into the fasci- nating. hobby — or profession — of photography, but possi- bly the widest trail - s been made by parents wh . , have bought their first good era with the arrival of the first child. And learning how to make - successful children's pictures has opened the door both to fur) and national reputations as exhibition photographers, because child photography is not that simple, and requires development of techniques that can be widely applied — while having a model avail- able to try them out. There are two routes to go child photography, candids or more formal portraits, and &little different technique is required for the different ap- proaches — although the same camera can be used. The trick, of course, is to get "natural" pictures, and this, actually is the trick for every other kind of photogra- phy, except possibly for some of the modern "special pro- . cesses." And it is in candid photog- raphy where the parent, with just a little care and thought, can often beat the profession- al in producing the kind of pictures that will become more valuable to the family over the years, because, after all, the parent has far more opportunity to make the "natural" picture. On the other hand, the pro- fessional rarely gets to see the child until hair is combed, face washed, and all dressed up until the child is most un- comfortable in his unnatural appearance at best — or com- _ple'tely mad about the whole thing at worst. So, learn to males„pictures as they happen. This means that a camera should be loaded with film, with flash in place, and handy to where children are most likely to be in the home. It means that the camera should be used often enough so that film doesn't have a chance to deteriorate before development — and flash batteries will not lose their charge. This often means that it is better to load with shorter films, 20 instead of 36 frames fo'r 35 -mm, for instance. And it is well to remember' that film spoils faster after expo- sure than before. Simple, flash -on -camera can produce some great fam- ily pictures although the ex- pert may frown on the "flash shadows” which are evident. The real problem here is n overexposure of film, how- ever. So, follow the "guide numbers." Believe the in- structions — until you prove they're wrong. It is difficult_ to believe that such a small burst of light'— s° little "mottled sunlight" — can be so ,powerful. So, the tendency is to open up the lens just slightly "to be sure." The result, particular- ly with closeups is white "burned out" faces and de- struction of detail in high- lights. An underexposed slide, on the 'other hand, will display far more color and a slightly underexposed negative will produce all of the detail, .in both highlight and shadow, of which either color or mono- chrome paper is capable. While "candid" is this country, although it is part of a two-hour program in Britain and is listened to by more than 20 million BBC listeners every Sun- day. Besides playing records re- quested for relatives and friends on the other side of the Atlantic, the program has recently begun accepting requests for flowers to be sent to relatives on special occasions.
