I have a very attractive sister who is married to a perfect hus- band, and has four beautiful children. 11 y husband and I are horrified by her conduit„ "For four years she has been seeing an- other man -and she thinks no one knows! Long ago we both thought the affair would soon end but instead, it is getting worse: "She has everything to make her happy - a beautiful home. the latest model car, this wonderful husband, and her children. Yet she has told me she lives only for this one night a week 'to herself' as she calls it: "I-Iow can I tell her that we know what is going on? I feel we must. Shall I? 1 feel so badly about her husband, I ane sick over the whole thing. HELP ME." WILL IT HELP? * You can tell your sister that * her affair is no secret, and ask * her whether she is willing to take * the consequences which one day * she must face when the truth * comes out - which of cone -e. it * finally will. * She will do one- of :vve Ohms: • Admit her guilt, and end the * affair - or deny it fiercely and end it or not - but hate you * cordially. Are YOLJ prepared * to face that? * You can. of course, assure her * that her "secret" is safe with * you, and promise to help her iu * any way you can. You will not * dwell on her guilt, but let her * feel you understand how such * things happen. * A woman cannot always keep • her heart at home, but the great * sin lies in allowing it to wander * for so long.

When you took your husband back. he pro- mised to make you happier than you had ever been. Yet now he does nit take you anywhere. and spends all his lei- sure time at his mother's - who, you tell me, was instrumental in his leaving you i11 the first place, and still influences hint against you. Have another try. Instead of begging hint to take you places. try to interest hint in his fancily. This youngster you have is at a winsome age; if his fattier helped you train him. he would soon discover stow thrilling it is to he a parent. Can't you appeal to iris pride in the child, stress stow much the boy needs him, and build up a more congenial family life for you all? You will not get anywhere by nagging hint, you know. Look your prettiest when he .comes house, use your imagination and your charm, and plan evenings together that will amuse him. Have him bring his Wren friend, home, (also these brothers who like you) and make them welcome. Let your 'husband see what an engaging hos- tess you can be - he needs to be proud of you and to respect you more than he does now. If he does not respond to these ideas, you can only remind hint how much you love him, how you have counted on his co-operation, and how vastly disappointed you are. If he does not watu'to lose you, he will make a new effort to be more attentive. Tell him it is up to him now, for you have done all you could. If you have a problem, tell Anne Hirst about it. Her long years of helping other troubled people have given her an insight and a deep sympathy that you can trust.

In 1939 there were 6,560 persons in this category, the annual report of the Island Revenue Department showed. Names of the 86 were not re- vealed but most were believed to be persons who made their money, long before the war. The majority of Britain's 20,000,- 000 workers were left with the equivalent of between $14 and $28 a week, the report said. Most businessmen in the upper grades pay income tax of 19s. 6d. on the pound sterling -97.5 per cent. A plan snaking the equivalent of $5,600 a year pays 45 per cent of it in income taxes. Home -weaving More Than A Hobby Now Hand weutiug may have been practically a lost art during mall • interim year,, but it can hardly be cn Merest so now with an esti- mated 140,000 weavers in the United States at work on looms either as a hobby or a means of livelihood. Some of them have taken up weaving as a hobby and work at looms in their homes, even in tiny apartments. Those who have more space have as many as live or six looms, ranging in size from sutall ltd -inch ones to those of regulation size. Clothes for Family One woman makes beautiful tex- tured tweed suits, not only for herself, but shits and an overcoat for her husband as well. Many weave clothes for themselves; and a style show 111 whish smocks, skirts, blouses, and evening gowns were modeled, created intense in- terest with ail who saw it. Ham: - loomed items such a, table maks, dresser scarves, guest towels, tablecloths and napkins are much in demand as gifts, Many women support themselves on their daily output from their home looms. One yeoman raised two small boys on her earnings. Now she teaches weaving in a local craft center and het two sons, married and with families, weave their own draper:es, Hand looming lends itself par- ticularly well to modern efftets be- cause of the striking texture and unusual color combinations achiev- ed. There are those who started out weaving as a hobby and are non among the ]catling modern design- ers, show:ne their textiles fre- quently in modern -design exhibits. Several small communities in Jfi- chigatt are now practically support- ed by weaving projects, which sup- ply decorators with fabrics. Leaders point out that weaving is not excessively costly. The very small looms which can be used for weaving small scarves, and stats, and for working out dosings, sell for under $20. Portable looms which will weave sizable pieces are around $40, and full-s'ze looms cau be purchased for around $150. Many women report that their husbands have made looms to fit their special steeds. The growth of hand weaving has been accompanied by a rise in weaving guilds. Some arc organ- ized mainly for exchange of ideas of individual members who worse at home and are known ae 'lone. weavers." Others serve as co- operative exchanges for exhibit and sale of work. As a community contribution members often serve as craft in- structors in army, navy, and vet- eands' hospitals. Their coopera- tion with local art leagues and mu- seums is helping to make many cities hand -weaving and textile conscious.

"r": •5aa °tett HR'` I` !CLES 1NGERF estesti.dollne P Os -spite For once I feel like saying "t told yon sol" Remember the news story last week about the nteteori:e flaelliht acres* the sky? Well, when the news broke I remarked - "Now w: can look for some dras- tic change in the weather." And no one can deny that we got it! Last week must surely have set some kind of heat record for late fall. slut wasn't it wonderful -even though it dues make it a little hard- er to accept the snow than if we had led up to it gradually. .Maybe some of you industrious people made good usa of the sunny days to get an extra spot of houseclean- ing done. I had other ideas. I had quite a feu- trips I had been want- ing to make for ages -partly busi- ness, as my trips usually are -and, I thought, now is the tinge .. when the weather gets cold and rough I have no ambition to travel around very much, especially if I have to drive the car myself. So away I went on my- round of visits. Start- ind on Sunday I was away part of the day every day of the week. However, none of my trips ,were very long -all within a forty mile radius. Altogether I accomplished a lot of business, stet some very interesting and entertaining people, and on the whole, had a most en- joyable time. 1 still have to make a trip to Toronto -after that I shall probably be ready to hibernate for the duration of the winter. It dols been said that houses take on character from the people who lice in tical. There can be little argument against that -it is often so very obvious. For instance one house 1 visited was almost new and the very last word in comfort and convenience -streamlined to the very last detail Picture Win- dows, drapes that pulled right across. very smoothly, by manipu- iating a hidden cord. Hardwood floors throughout -except in the kitchen, bathroom and basement, where there was rubber tile. Four - piece bathroom on the ground floor; three-piece in the basement. And that basement really won my heart. There was the usual modern • laundry --also workshop, complete with fireplace, sleeping cot, large desk, sewing machine and oodles of cupboard room. The friend who was with 1110 said laughingly -"I eau just imagine what yon would do with this room if you had it!" Another attraction -,he men could go in and out t0 the basement by the rear door, smoke a pipe or talc at shower. even if there was a tea- 440lttg on in the living room. Needless to say this extremely mo- dern and charming home was exact- ly the right setting for the lady of the house, whom 1 knew to be a nose efficient and meticulous . housekeeper. Later in the week 1 visited, for the first time, another home. And in regard to it .1 shall only attempt to describe one room -it was all that , registered with plc anyway. This room was very large. A pic- ture window reached almost entire- ly across one end of it -and this window led out to a flagstone ter- race -complete with a background of ornamental evergreens -a n d overlooking a ravine through which ran a gurgling stream, If I lived in that house I don't think I would ever want t0 move out of such a delightful room. One couldn't pos- "'sibly tire of it. Inside the roots there were huge oalc bcalns sup- porting the ceiling which was a . lovely shade of palish -blue, a pleas- ing contrast to the boor which was Chinese red -but tate red was not too obvious because of the scatter rugs and the subdued tones of the chesterfield suite and other furnish- ings. There was an immense stone fireplace and a beautiful grand piano -both of which belonged to the room as naturally as a gilt (reeve to an oil painting. I need hardly say that the family in this home was extremely artistic --shut 4.1ot "arty" -if you get what I clean, Th's room in particular was ex- pressive of the hest forst of art since it had a "lived�in look", thus creating on atmosphere of pleasure and comfort. Did 1 mine •back discontented with out humble homer I did not. I lutea that a house like either of the ones I has visited was entirely beyond mar means. Certainly it was a joy to see such beautiful hones, but still what we have with- in our own. four walls arc things which we have worked hard to get; they are what the children have grown up with; every piece of furniture, every p'cture and orna- meet. every convenience is inter- woven with life as we nave known it nt Ginger Farm -through the de- pression and the War years. Even now, it is often with a spirit of thankfulness that I switch on the lights, remembering the days when coal -oil lamps were our only means of illumination. Envious . , . no. Appreciative ... yes.
