Dear Ann Landers;.Last year I
was 41, no children, no hobbies,
no interests. just tired blood
from *do . g nothing. I spent most
ot my time telephoning friends
and ., relatives, making a pest
of myselfa, 4s most bored people
do when they intrude on the lives
of htlsy'pepple,
When a friend suggested I get
a lob or do volunteer work I was
insulted. Didn't She know Iwas in
poor health? She told `me I.was
tired from doing nothing and add.
ed; «Killing time is the hardest
work of all." 'Her final words
stung, She said, ! Why don't you
grow up and think about something
besides yourself for a change'
. After I cooled off I decided to
call a hospital and offer my ser.
vices just to see 'what would hap.
pen. The hospital volunteer chair.
man seemed eager for any kind of
help, and I signed up for one after..
noon a week. The follow day I
signed , up for 3 days a ` k.
I have more energy now than I
had in years. For the first time
I feel like a useful human being
instead of .a worthless blob.
Please tell women who are
tired from doing nothing to get
off their backsides and volunteer
at the nearest hospital. It could
. change theiflives as"ft'dfd mine,.

Life Insurance,
f�r 20 'ear olds?
Definitely. This is the best time to buy life insurance. At the
beginning of your' career when the premiums are. lower:
When you buy life insurance. you create an estate of your
own the moment you sign. Life insurance is also a sound in-
vestment, Thanks to compound interest, the cash value will
keep increasing through the years giving you' a "nest egg" for
unforeseen emergencies.
Life insurance can also be used as collateral. For loans or
business deals later.
Talk to the Man from Manufacturers. He'll discuss your
particular situation with you and draw up your personal life

"WHAT'S THE
NEW CANADIAN DAIRY
COMMISSION DOING ABOUT
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
PRICE SUPPORTS?"
ri'
■ The new Canadian Dairy Commission took its first
step in furthering the development of a sound, efficient
dairy trfdUgtry-i rr its -stab l-itzati &rrprog-r-a-m--for the year -
starting April 1'> 1967.
• It is supporting market prices of major dairy products
at levels which, are equivalent„ to about cents e
hundred more than a year ago for manufacturing milk
testing 3.5%. ' ..
• The federal' government is providing funds to the
Commission for a "subsidy to manufacturing milk and
cream shippers equivalent to $1.21 a hundred for 3.5%
milk. The rate last year was 85c. From the $1.21 there
will be a holdback equivalent to 11c for export price
equalization, with any unused amount refunded at the
• o �d of the year.
■ Basis for the payment Will be the volume of rnanufac-
turing milk and cream required for the Canadian fnarket,
approximately the amount for which subsidies were paid
to manufacturing milk and cream shippers in 1966-67.
• After mid-May,- when 19.66-67 records are com-
�.leted; each regis-terecl-pradu,cer.will be informed of the
volume for which he will be eligible for subsidy in 1967-
68. This will be based- on the volurhe for which he
received'subsidy in 1966-67. The amount for the year
will be broken down into monthly quotas, based on the
normal percentage of milk and cream marketed each
month. Those who received subsidy for Tess than
50,000 pounds (1,750`pounds butterfat) last year will
be eligible for subsidy up to that amount this year..
■ This new program, in 'terms of price. support and
subsidies, represents an increase of 65c, or 16%, over
the federal program' for 1966-67. It is over a dollar; or
33%, higher than' in 1965' .
• What's the new -Dairy Commission doing to help
improve the dairy industry? Quite a lot. An' it's only
the beginning.
