The Seaforth News, 1956-11-08, Page 6"Dear Anne Hirst: So many
'lettere you print are about in-
iata, troubles that I just must
stick out by matronly neck. Isn't
it because too many mothers
think their children are perfect
--- especially their sons? When a
boy marries and trouble conies,
More promptly declares it's the
wife's fault - `my darling boy
could never be wrong" I've seen
this too often.
"Both my sons have been mar-
ried seven years, and their wives
and I haven't had • one cross
word "et, I honestly think it is
because I was never the devoted
Mamma who stood up for her
sons, no matter what. 1 was smart
enough (or is it a talent you
have or you haven't?) to be able
to see their wives' sides, too, and
recognize the weaknesses of my
boys; I never hesitated to say so.
Elven when both were to blame
I was frank about it, and the
girls understood.
"Perhaps I succeeded because
I love both these girls as though
They were my own daughters. I
never encouraged their bringing
troubles to me; it came about
naturally. When I could, I re-
fused to give an opinion, just

MARRIAGE FORBIDDEN
"Dear Anne. Hirst; I'm begin-
ning to hate my mother. She's
just told the I can't marry the
ratan I'm wild about, He was mar-
ried before, he is 30, and has
three children. I am 10. Since I
siert him, all rat}: old boy friends
look so silly; but when I'm with
hire I'm so happy that 1 can
hardly wait for the nest date.
"My mother even says 1
iculdn't look after his children
property! I've° always laved
children. and I know she is
wrong. She hasa boy friend all

TradrIng, Stamps
do ,;rent is the vuc;uo for the
1(132 of trading stamps thata
conference has been called in
New York Stale to look into the
effects of this new device in the
inarket place. The discussion leas_
boon req[lested by Dr. Persia
Ciiniphell, conhumc'r counsel to
(Inventor Ilarriman.
A wide variety' of opinions is
likely to be forthcoming as to
the value of the stamp plan
either to stores or to consumers.
lr has been in use in America
for about GO years. The current
boom seemil to have started in
Denver and to have spread to
retperniarkets, drugstores, gaso-
line stations. greenhouses, lum-
ber yards, and all sorts of other
retailers until it is estimated
that half the families in the
United States are saving stamps
to exchange for electric appli-
ances,
ppliances, kitchenware, athletic
goods, camera::, and other prem-
iums.
The (thief argument aroused is
03. the question whether the cus-
tomer drawn to a certain store
"because they give stamps" is
really getting something "free"
for saving a hookful df the lit-
tle colored squares or whether
she is paying more for her gro-
ceries and the premium than if
she whopped around and bought
them separatoly.
The theory of the stamp cont-
panies is that the "gifts” are a
bonus to customers for paying
cash -- which is reasonable
enough in this charge account
era -- and that they are an ef-
fective promotional device for
the storekeeper. On the latter
point there has been little dis-
I'ute of late. Many stores have
found purchasers more attracted
by stamps titan by price cuts.
Lut how long this effect will
Jae! may be problematical.
A simple rule has boon sug-
gested which shoppers can read-
ily apply for themselves, In gen-
tra1, the cash value of the stamp
given is about '2 per cent of the
purchase on which it is based.
If prices are equal at the stamp
and the nanstatnp store, the
tinder is getting a bargain. If
they are, say, 5 per cent higher
atthe stamp -giving store. the
buyer is deluding hinl:atlf. From
