She Itas,fallen in love, And her mother, who objected to every boy friend she had, is fterious, "W e' it it o w she'll neverlet us marry," the girl writes. "Would it be wrong to run away?" It is proper for parents to be careful whom their daughters date. But some mothers are so un- reasonably strict that they practic- ally, drive a girl to drastic action. NO SOCIAL LIFE I learned that my mother made the girl continues, "Never did I date a boy who pleased my mother. She was not kind even to my girl friends. I've lived much alone, not allowed to go to parties or the ntovles. * I ever a girl had reason to take a mistake before she married. But should she torture me for a sin she committed?

Sun Is Heading For Disaster According to the astronomers of Mount Palomar, California, where the giant 200 -inch Palomar tele- scope is scanning the heavens, the sun is rushing through space at the rate of at least 130.000 miles an hour towards the star Vega in the constellation of Lyra. Imagination fails before the pic- ture of this enormous flaming ball, 93,000,000 miles away from the earth, hurtling through space with its planets -of which our earth is one sI moang and whirlingirling round it. Whether it will ever reach the star Vega is not certain -for Vega and the sun are 210 billion miles apart. A lot ran happen in the interim -aar1 it is unlikely to affect people who are alive today. The problem of centuries has been to account for the scenting constancy of the sun while it is dissipating its colossal energy. How can the sun maintain its temperature and its size while it is burning away day and night? It seems that l'rofessor Albert Einstein has provider) the answer=. The sun is not really conserving its s°ze and weight. In its furnaces matter is being transformed into energy. Knowing approximately the total energy ra- diated by the sun, we find that four and a half million tons of matter in the sun must be annibil- and cath second. This looks like solar suicide. But so immense is the sun that even this holocaust could continue for ten thousand million years before the sun would lose one -thousandth part of its present weight) CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACI10Ca 2. un on Foreman instrument worthless . :turn env[ng Marked with 11 e. 1. 5.

The apple orchard was as much an aceepled co ,ro3lary of the furan of Southern'Michigan as the corn- field or pteadoty. Farmers is our partietder locality did not depend much upon the apple crop as a cAanntt<rcial entcrpr,se, but rather as one of the natural contributions to the larder. And although there was plenty of every kind of fruit indigenous to this part of the country, such as pears, peaches, plums, and smaller fruits, it was the apple upon which we most depended, because. if had the long- est season, survived the most diver- sified usage, and was, all in all, the stay upon which we leaned for fruit variance in our diet, My mother,..who'se mind some- times took a fanciful turn, for all her practicality, loved the orchard from the first red bud Which show- ed among the young green leaves to the last frostbitten fruit falling from its rinsed branch, and was much diverted, by the mellifluous and sometimes romantic names by which they were known. My fa- ther, being somewhat of a gour- met, found more pleasure in con- templating the aromatic odor of an Early Harvest as suitable for a green -apple pie. The Early Harvest was the first to lend spice and variety both as "sauce" for the table and as green - apple pie. Now, a green -apple pie, along in summer after you had had your fill of custards because eggs were plentiful, and especially if yours was the kind of cuisine where dried apples filled in that dismal period between the last of the Baldwins or Russets and the first of the Early Harvests, was a mat- ter for praise and benediction.

Lutes. IN THE KNOW An elderly man consulted a doc- tor about his health. "Frankly," said the doctor, "it's quite apparent to me that you drink too much. If you don't cut it out, spots will appear on your face," The advice and the prophecy were alike unacceptable to the pati- ent, who, with a few words of de- rision, departed. In a month he returned, adorned with the promised spots. "Doctor," he said, admiringly, "you were quite right after all. D'ye know anything good for the King's Plate?"

HRONICLES i1N6ERFARM (je,2tt.dr,lir e D CtA,tke So quickly the days, the weeks and months go by; so soon the time conies round again when friend greets friend with cheery Christ- mas wishes, Ah yes, and at Christ-. mas parties and community con- certs 01d Timers and New Cana- dians greet each other without re- serve. In the Christmas .spirit of loving and giving there is- no dis- tinction of race or creed; age or social stat ding, And so from Gin- ger Farm to all the homes where these Chronicles are read comes my sincere wish that each one of you wilt have a very happy Christmas season. To homes where there is no cloud its the sky; where young- sters are carefree and gay, it is my wish that Christmas may add to that same happiness and joy. Ilut in homes where hearts are trouble'., where perhaps, for the first time, the family circle is in- complete, I hope the Christmas message will bring new faith and a quiet sense of healing and peace.

One way or another it doesn't really matter, imagination makes up fur the weatherman's vagaries. Christmas carols ring out just as cheerily whether we walk in mud or in snow. Neither wind nor storm can silence our Christmas carols nor destroy the message of hope that began long years ago with the Christ -child's birth, Even in Soviet Russia where Christmas celebrations are forbidden one can be reasonably sure that well -loved Christrnas carols are still silently sung in the hearts of the oppressed, Chrislinas carols have always been a source of comfort tend !tope -even to the Huron Indians Who would gather together to sing hymns to the • Christ -child, After first building a pbapel of cedar and fir to honour the Infant Jesus.
