'Dear Anne Hirst: Not many
new homes are disrupted yet M. the
Korean fighting, I expect. But I
know of three
couples who are
already facing
problems result-
ing from it.
Perhaps your
comment can
help them, and
others.
"One young
bride I know was disliked by her
husband's family - Heaven only
knows why. She lived with her
folks while he was away. He came
home on furlough, and she became
pregnant. Shortly after the baby
came, he was discharged.
"His family had been writing him
that his wife had been running
around, which I know was not
true. His mother talked this boy
into going to court, to try to prove
the baby wasn't his!

DRESS.
"The judge, fortunately, would
have none of that. But as a result,
this fine young couple are separated
today ... Will these mothers never
learn?
UNFAITHFUL WIFE
"The second girl was not so in-
nocent; she dated other men. When
her husband came home, he de-
manded divorce. Asked if he had
been faithful to her, he said it was
'different with a man.' His wife
did not contest the action.
"Ironically, he married a beauti-
ful blonde who rules him with an
iron rod. He would gladly wriggle
out of this exacting set-up, except
for his little boy whom he adores.
"The smother of the third boy had
divorced his father long ago, and
had had one affair after another.
Yet, while her son at war should
have been getting comforting
fetters, she wrote that his wife was
going dancing with service men.
Which was true.
"When he carte back, he asked
his wife no questions. He made one
statement: He did not believe in
double standards for husband and
wife, and he suggested they renew
their marriage vows, They did,
and they are a happy couple today."
I have lived through both World
Wars. From what I know and what
1 hear, most war marriages would
work out all right if jealous mothers
and malicious "friends" would mind
their own business.
* To "A WELL -WISHER";
* The mother of the first couple
* has her wish: She has broken up
* her son's marriage. It is sad in-
* deed that lie had not faith in the
* girl who married hint,
* The husband who demanded
* a divorce because his wife had
* not been true is finding out that
* there are worse women to live
* with than a reformed wife, How
* miserable he must be nowt
* Ify hat is off to the third soldier
* who refused to question his wife
* at all. He trusted her, and kept
* his head. The idea of renewing
* their marriage vows was a wise
* and happy plan; it could well be
* adopted by other couples than
* war -time 0055.
* A young husband, off to the
war, leaves his bride convinced
* that she will stay true to hits,
* Contrary to general opinion. most
tf them do,
If your husband is in the war,
watch your step so that no one has
reason to criticize you in any way '
If trouble comes, write Anne
Hirst about it, at Box 1, 123 Eigh-
teenth St„ New Toronto, Ont.
FULL UP
The couple furnished a 12 -room
house with premiums redeemed
from soap coupons. They showed
a friend around, proudly comment-
ing on how many coupons each
chair, table or carpet "cost."
At the end of the tour the visitor .
said: "But you've shown me only
five of the twelve rooms; what
about the other seven?"
"Oh, those?" shrugged the
householder, "That's where ,we keep
thy snap."

What To Do With
Those Extra Words
Western t'uiott'e serappitg ul
the miuitntuu 10- word telegram, in
favour of the higher -priced 13 -word
telegratn, puts it squarely up to
telegram *sutlers. What are they
going to use Owe* live new words
for -information, or affection?
Heretofore, the 10 -word telehrant
has been divided a follows:
For information, 9 words,
For affection, 1 word.
- It resulted in something ou the
order of.
ARRIVED SAFELY PLEASE
SEND TOPCOAT AS WEATH-
ER CHILLY HERE LOVE
The question now squarely before
'Western Union's customers i s
whether, in the future, they are go-
ing to have more to say about the
topcoat or more to say about love.
It would be more practical, we
grant you, to add a phrase to the
telegram setting fortis where the -
coat is to be found, Titus:
ARRIVED SAFELY PLEASE
SEND TOPCOAT IT 1S IN
HALL CLOSET WEATHER
TURNED CHILLY HERE
LOVE.
But think how much more satis-
factory it would be to the recipient
to get a telegraut worded:
ARRIVED SAFELY PLEASE
SEND TOPCOAT WEATHER
TURNED CHILLY HERE I
LAVE YOU MADLY DESPER-
ATELY DARLING.
The foregoing phaseology would
also carry the flattering implication
that the recipient 'has enough sense
to look in the hall closet for the
coat, '
Vire do not presume to prejudge
the question for further authors of
15 -word telegrams,
• Our purpose is merely to point
out what the nature of the dilem-
ma is, now that the five additional
words can be sent as cheaply as
10.

time gone that screen actress
Margaret O'Brien - who, it
seems only yesterday was
playing tearful moppets in films
-should look as grown up as
this? Here, lovely Miss O'Brien
is shown at Nice, France. where
she had stopped momentarily
on her European vacation.
A Dog's Best Friend
A dog's best friend is -a dog. At
least, it proved so in this particu-
lar case.
Cas. Risner, farmer, owns two
dogs called Bingo and Sandy. They
are fanatics about bunting --often
going out alone when their master
is too busy to hunt,
Late ohne afternoon, Bingo rushed-
home barking excitedly. Ile would
take short runs towards the woods,
then come back in a cajoling man-
ner. Cas figured he had' a squir-
rel treed, but waved the dog aside
and started his before -dark chores
since it was geting lata
Bingo entered the woods again
and barked "treed". He kept at it
so persistently that Cas finally
dropped his chores, picked up his
gun and decided to get it over with.
Arriving at the spot, Cas began
looking up the tree, but Mingo
stopped barking and headed farther
out into the woods where he barked
again. Cas followed, For the sec-
ond time he saw the dog had "lied,
a trick Bingo 'had never pulled be-
fore. Cas scolded the dog soundly,
but Bingo didn't stay to listen -out
he went again and harked treed
once more,
It was so unlike the dog's gen-
eral character that Cas finally de-
cided Bingo was trying to tell him
something. He followed the dog.
Bingo ran ahead, barked every few
minutes, looked back to be sure this
master was following and bore on
eagerly through the woods,
He led Cas to an old wire fence,
deep in ' the solitary backwoods,
where the man found Bingo's con-
stant companion, Sandy, almost
dead. The doghad his leg
caught g
in the wire while trying to get over
the fence, and had struggled until
heI ei e
was t gl ss. In that particular
part of the woods, Sandy could have
hung there six months to a year
without being found,
Bingo had used the only method
he knew to get Cas to help his
friend and Bunting companion,

"Grid Save C,ur Sling", We hare
heard and sung those words so
often, haven't we -and almost as
often have paid little attention to
their meaning. But now, quite sud-
denly, they have taken on much
greater significance and most of us
will be saying literally and earnest-
ly, "God Save our King". Few can.
doubt that the King is urgently itt
need of the prayers of his people -
as also are the physicians and sur-
geons attending him.
"Uneasy lies the head that wears
a crown', 'Who can doubt it after
seeing recent press photographs of
our present king? I wonder how
the Duke ofgWindsor feels when he
sees the tired, !harassed appearance
of the brother who took over the
responsibilities which he reliuguish-
cd for purely personal reasons.
1f, and when, Princess Elizabeth
and the Duke of Edinburgh do conte
to Canada perhaps the illness of the
King will cause us in Canada to be
a little more restrained in our wel-
coming demonstrations. I ant sure
less bunting and more consideration
would be greatly appreciated by the
young couple on their ardour tour.
And how did everyone enjoy the
return to summer last week? 1£ you
like hot weather you could have
had my share es well as your own.
I prefer fall weather that has a
little tang to it. It was too bad it
rained so heavily on Saturday .
two fall fairs and three weddings in
this district -and the weatherman
had to put on an act like that! But
there was another affair last week
with which the weather did not
attempt to intereferc at all -the an-
nual meeting of the County Federa-
tion of Agriculture at which I)r.
H. H. Hanna4n, M.B.E. was the
guest speaker. Partner and 1 were
both on hand to fear Dr. Harnham
who has done so much in the
terest of farmers. Partner bad heard
him address a meeting some years
ago but it was the first time 1 had
either seen or heard hint. \Ve were
both favourably impressed. Dr.
I'iannam's obvious sincerity and his
delightful senese of humour were
particularly pleasing. And he is
about the only speaker I ever heard
who could quote statistics and still
hold the interest of his audience.
Apparently he is absolutely itbias-
ed politically as he promised stiff
opposition to any government who
tried to put controls on farm pro-
ducts without also placing controls
on other goods and services. That
you may have heard on the radio
as Jack Dennet jumped the gun and
quoted Dr. Hannan»'s remark be-
fore he had a l even !Venst1

Dr. Hannam mentioned his Ot-

department and less were used for
local projects. If more funds were
available to Dr, Hannam he would
have a better chance for expansion
in the splendid work he is doing,
not only for agriculture but for
humanity by a more equal distribu-
tion of food to other parts of the
world.
There was not too big a crowd at
last week's meeting and how I was
wishing that every farmer and his
wife could have made a special
effort to be present. '\\7e felt the
ones who were absent missed so
much. Dr, Hannam has such a
wonderful personality -friendly, ap-
proachable and alert. Just to see
and hear Hint inspires confidence.

Hannant's changed appearance,
From a slier young fellow he had
cbanged to a broad, thick -set nian--
it occurred to me that the breadth of
his shoulders had developed from
the load they had had to carry for
eu many years.
And to change the subject , , , an
editorial in one of our daily papers
raised the question -"where are.the
old songs?" I would like to add to
that question and ask -"Where are
tale old hymins?" In our church as
in others the tendency is towards
newer and loss familiar hymns. '1'o
me the old hymns are the best -not
only for their content but 'by as-
sociation with one's childhood and
with those who have 'passed away.
Not only that,' with old hymns all

If you find an unexploded

shake it. The firing pin is prob-

condition are a constant source
of danger.
Always under any circum- •
stnces, get excited and shout. It

Taking Care
Of Your Towels
"My bath towels wear out so
fasts" seems to be a common plaint
today, A few hints as to their
care may aid in preserving their
wearing qualities,
1. New bath towels should al-
ways be laundered before using,
to snake then absorbent; and ab-
sorbency increases with each laun-
dering,
2. Do not allow Turkish towels
to become too soiled, for hard
scrubbing definitely shortens a
towel's life.
3. Turkish towels should `never
be ironed.
Since this type of towel always
shrinks with laundering, choose
towels large enough.
