' I hesitate in calling this boat 'she' and I was told I could call it 'a boat without getting scolded.

Huron - the BISCAYNE BAY just growls and snorts - and attacks! You can't call this lady like behavior, now, can you? The nice young man who showed us around, said that often when the air (bubble) was in action . sometimes they felt they would land on top of the ice instead of chewing into it. Now that's no way for a lady to behave! And when I say snort I mean that exactly! This ice- breaker is large and stronger than other harbour tugs. Do you remember the first winter we had the air bubbles bubbling in our har- bour?

When you are .feeling low ' and frustrated take a minute to assess what is happening around you: Why are things getting to you? I know why they're' getting to me but here is perhaps help for you... If you can work it - there is peace in silence. Be on good termswith your neighbors. Speak the truth - always - speak it quietly and clearly and listen to others. As far as. possible without surrender, be ,on good terms . with all people. If loud and aggressive peo- ple bother you try to avoid them as you would liars and - cheats. Keep interested in the world about you. Lord knows there is little you can do for it, but be knoWled geable. Be yourself. Do the things you really want to do or they are the source of your frustrations. Enjoy and be proud of your achievements as well as your plans, whether noticed or not by others. Make con- tact with old friends, this is one of your put -offs and a thing that bothers you. You need true friends to keep you alive and happy. Perhaps you are unable to travel and see things you would like to see, but, you can listen and see them thru' the eyes of others and feel their excitement and en- thusiasm_- it helps! Love, Martha.
