'Lek t., nt n.ia 1 time -turd were
you glad of that extra hour in bed
last Sunday? We trod it much easier
to adjust our eb.s niten the time
ehanf:es from fast st:uulard time
than Man it is the other way round
trayle leets.; it is a whole lot
easier to sl ep an , :tra hour than it
iso lose it. Ye.• , ,• really manage
very nicely uutif we get outside.
That is wh, a the trouble begins.
On 1> S.T. ne are often out to feed
the chid -cos i,efi,;e they are really
read, for their ',re,kf-nt. On stan-
dard time the chickens are up and
hod ;:.g fa; it ani : aistrg a regular
rumpus because they think we've
forgotten then!. lane ring the eggs
also has to he sort of re -arranged.
On O.S.T. the hen; start late but
keep on laying well into the after-
noon. On E.S.T. we have to start
picking up eggs early because the
hens get most of their egg -laying
done in th forenoon. Then the
kittens come booking for their break-
fast and supper at what they think
is the usual time because no one
has ever yet found a way of mak-
ing the animals and birds change
their schedule according to the way
the clock is set. And isn't it strange
how much difference one hour can
stake?
Saturday was our i :cal fair and
for once in our lives we missed it,
The wheat is to blame for that. Our
men were on their second field, try-
ing to get it finished before the
week -end -and the iai.. However
when the wheat was sown there
were still ditchs to run. You know
how it is -n,, good farmer is con-
tent to leave his field until it is
properly ditched. But. by the dine
that teas done :he rest of the
folk were coming hone from the
fair. 1 suppose I could have gone
but I just didn't feel like it. Niece
Joy went on the seven bus that
morning so 1 Wit, more interested
in getting my work done in antici-
pation of a quirt and restful week
end. And we had it.
1 suppose we reall., missed some-
thing worthwhile because we heard
it was a wonderful fair and it was
certainly an ideal dap. Home baking
was very much to the fore so sugar
rationing didn't quite make the wo-
men forget how to Lake.

Really, sometimes the way one's
plans get upset is quite funny. After
Joy had gone I said to Partner -
"Well. I suppose that sees the last
of our summer visitors. It's been
lovely having them, every one of
them, but now . . " And then I
went on to enumerate the jobs 1
wanted t. get done; the unfinished
work that was simply dropped when
Cicely arrived; letters that were still
to be written and various items of
business to be attended to that some-
how got put off until the time should
come that would see us back to
ordinary everyday life. Well, after
outlining my good intentions to Part-
ner I went down for the mail and
there was a letter from my sister
-"mould h be all right if she came
up for Thanksgiving week -end." I
just had to laugh.
But so it is -we go on with our
ordinary, everyday plans; each with
our own special problems and our
little pet worries, so important to us
and yet how unimportant when we
consider what may be shaping up
from the tense International situa-
tion. It seems unthinkable that
there should be another war but
then war never does seem possible
until we are right in the middle of
it. No sane person wants war and
yet our war time effort is always so
much better than our peace time
activity. True, but illogical, don't
you think? .
But then we are illogical about so
many things - little things, big
things, all kinds of things.

Just today I heard of a woman
whose doctor has warned her that
she absolutely must lead a less ac-
tiveone of many
life. I t i s only n
such warnings to which his patient
hitherto had paid little attention.
She has always been an active Wo-
man, always ready to help in any
social work; certainly she has no
wish to be a semi -invalid yet her,
very actions are likely to bring on
the unwelcome condition that she
fears, Why consult a doctor at all
unless one is ready to take his ad-
vice, Of course most doctors know
that women patients are crazy any-
way. One medico said to me -"We
can always tell when a woman is
ready to take to her bed because she
always has to make a real job of
housecleaning first, arriving at the
hospital for an operation maybe,
tired out, and with all Iter reserve
strength used up."
Illogical -yes -but change the na-
ture of women you can't!

ONE FAULT which .t coung man
in love is apt to brush off as imma-
terial in his girl is the fault of care
lessuess. When site leave; her purse
on the bus, or
forgets het
shopping list, or
doesn't call het
huller IS he u
they're out late,
he thinks it
rather amusing,
and treats it
With an indulg-
i0 ence alutost pa-
et'ntll "lust like her!" he grins,
and feels t ery male and superior.
But after they marry, he twill dis-
cover it is one of the most irritat-
ing habits to live with.
She will forget to send out his
laundry. His favorite dessert will
be overlooked, The house will be
anything buttidy, her clothes will
be draped over chair -backs, and he'll
never be able to find that magazine
he put aside.
She will not stop to count her
change at the grocer's. The money
he gave her last payday will never
last till the next. The medicine cab-
inet will not be properly filled. His
tools he'll find kicked under the
kitchen table. And when they snake
a date, she will never be ready on
time.
What To Do?
Then it ceases to be amusing. He
lets go with a bang, and she stands
there and listens to his raving with
wide eyes, and she is hurt beyond
consoling,
Most sten are orderly, and they
expect their homes to be run as
well as their mother's home was
managed. And they're apt to think,
before marriage, that they will he.
When they discover what they're
in for, they feel they've been cheat-
ed -and whose fault is it?
The time to curb such habits is
before marriage. A girl in love is
quick to sense criticism, eager to
make herself over into the ideal her
fiance has of her. If she resents his
comments, or passes them off light-
ly, then that criticism has not been
firm enough -or, she is hopelessly
the victim of poor training.
Orderly habits are the result of
an orderly mind. One's mind can
be educated after maturity, if there
ie the will to do so, It is neither
a pleasant nor an easy process, and
the urge to correct one's self must
be vital.
To "Worried"
* YOU HAVE not impressed your
* objections strongly enough on
* this girl, I expect. If you make
* her realize that you do not in-
* tend to marry anyone so care-
* less (knowing it can ruin an other-
* wise good marriage), I think she
* will see her role and learn it.
* Have you talked with her moth-
* er about this fault? Let her know
* how seriously you feel about it,
* and she can communicate your
* feelings to her daughter,
* Otherwise, you can honestly
* "shudder" to contemplate the kind
* of hone she will make for you-
* one to which you will be asham-
* ed to invite your friends, because
* you are ashemed of your own
* wife.

A husband should be able to
expect his home well kept and
well nm, and his wife a dainty
and orderly person. If you are
discouraged. Anne Hirst has
helpful ideas for you. Address
her at 123 - 18th Street, New

If you are interested in fortune
telling and prediction, the handwrit-
ing analyst is a poor target at which
to aim questions, for he knows little
or nothing
about the arts
of palmistry, as-
trology, numer-
ology or any-
thing claiming
to reveal future
events..
Handwriting
does not predict
the future but
does reveal the quality and strength
of character of the writer. it is con-
cerned with what the writer is at
present, It is true that handwriting
analysis shows aptitudes and voca-
tiottal inclinations but even this is
based upon character, The analyst,
lilce the chemist, breaks down ma-
terial structure to determine its
qualities and to find out the material
values. When you submit your writ-
ing, for analysis his observations of
the strokes, whirls and twirls of
your writing reveal features of your
personality. Your writing therefore,
is your pattern of life showing what
you represent morally, intellectua-
lly and spiritually.
To know your weaknesses,
strength of character and personal-
ity traits is far more revealing
tin pre -
and helpfulattempting than attem t to
pre-
dict your future.
t7or a inlet analysis of your char-
acter send a sample of handwriting,
with a stamped, self-addressed enve-
lope, to Alex S. Arnott, 12.3-18t1t.

Prize Winners at Historic Fall Fair -For 115 years Picton,
Ontario, has been holding Fall Fairs and that there's still plenty
of life in the ancient organization is shown by the fact that this

Marilyn Reynolds of Picton who were first and second in the
showmanship competition for Calf Club members, defeating

Sour creast can be used to make
a variety of sauces or dressings, hot
or cold for vegetables. If cream
happens to turn sour, as it some-
times does, it should be used
promptly, never wasted.
With Fried Tomatoes
Sliced tomatoes, dipped in egg
and crumbs and
fried to a golden
'i`:id brown on both
sides, are extra
good dressed up
• with` s o u r cream
sauce. After lift-
ing the fried slices
to a hot platter,
sprinkle a couple
of tablespoons of
flour over the fat left in the pan,
mix well, then pour in a cup or
a cup and a half of sour cream,
Stir and cook slowly until thicken-
ed. Season with salt and pepper
as desired. Then pour the' hot sauce
over the tomatoes on the platter
and serve at once.
Hot Sour Cream Sauce
This sauce is especially good with
cooked broccoli, cauliflower or
potatoes. To make enough for six
servings, blend one tablespoon of
butter or other table fat with one
tablespoon lion-. Then add one cup
sour cream and % teaspoon salt.
Heat slowly and stir until thicken-
ed. Cover and cook over hot water
for about five minutes. Finely
chopped parsley, chives, or red or
green pepper may be added to give
color and added flavor.

LESSON
by Rev. R. Barclay Warren
Law In The Bible
Deuteronomy 6120-28;
Leviticus 19:9-14, 17-18.
Golden Text: -Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all
thy mind. This is the first and
great commandment. And the se-
cond is like 11)110 it, Thou shalt
love thy tteigitbnur, as thyself,
\latt. 22:37-29.
Jacob, his sons and their families,
-seventy souls in all, --,sent down
into Egypt. Four centuries later,
after a period of great affliction they
emerged as a nation more than a
minion strong, Their leader, Moses,
by divine direction gave them a code
of late.,. Many of these, including
the Ten Commandments are basic
to the laws of our nation.
Of ail these laws, Jesus selected
the two given in the golden text,
and pointed to them as of supreme
importance. "0n these", said he,
"hang all the law and the prophets".
Truly these are fundamental to
Christian living.
Jolty wrote, "The law was given
by Moses, but grace and truth carte
by Jesus Christ". The law sets a
high standard to which sinful man
can not attain. But by repenting of
our sins and believing on Jesus
Christ we become new creatures.
"Old things are passed away; be-
hold, all things are become new".
God's love is 'stied abroad in the
heart. Then we do those things
which please God, not from fear
but from love; not because we must,
but because we thus desire.

Autumn
I took a day to seardlt for God
And found Hitn not, but as. I trod
By rock ledges, through woods
untamed,
I saw His footprint in the sod.
Then suddenly, all unaware,
Far off in the deep shadows, where
A solitary hermit thrush
Sang through the holy twilight
hush,
I heard His voice upon the air.
At last with evening as I turned
Homeward, and thought what I had
learned
And all that there was stiff to
probe
I caught the glory, of His robe
Where the last fires of sunset
burned.
