"Dear Anne Hiret: I believed 1n
a married man once, and fell in
love When he found how
much he had hurt me, he didn't
have time even to comfort me.
I was decent and respectable, and
all lie did was to make me eheali.
What do men like this deserve?
"Please write a good, strong
article criticizing married men
for starting these affairs.

TARES TWO
* No married man who tries
* to entiee a girl into an affair
can succeed unless she eon-
* sents. lie usually wins by
* flattery, complains that his
* wife does not understnnd him
* (or he has fallen out of. love
with heel and he swears he has
* never cared for any other
" woman as he cares for the girl,
* But it cannot result in her be-
* ing "cheap" without her yield-
* ing.
* You hate this man beeause
* you feel he made you the vie-
" tim of his blandishments, You
* yielded, though you knew it
* was wrong" How could you
" have been so gullible as to
" trust a man who was betray-
"' ing his wife? Dishonor was in
* him. Why did you believe he
" would be more loyal to you
• than to the woman he promis-
* ed to cherish for the rest of
* his life --who by all the moral
• laws had a claim on his ildel-
ity'
a Why allow This bitter anger
to consume you? Instead, of
▪ harboring s u ch destructive
* thoughts, you should admit
* your own guilt, and regret you
• were such a foci as to be taken
" in by the husband of another
a woman.
* You say yoty have read this
* column for some time. You
• must have found in it, over and
* over again, the heartbreaking
o stories of other girls whose
* faith was betrayed. Presumab-
ly, like many of them. you
o thought you really loved the
° man, and were convinced that
* your love was returned. Now
o that you are left flat, why not
o lock the door on the copse-
* quences of your folly?
o It is sad that you did not an-
* ticipate the usual finale, and
* end the affair yourself.
o Any married man who tries
o to win a girl is a despicable
° character. Occasionally, the
n love he declares is an honest
a Iove; but unless he knows he
* earl fulfill the promises he
• makes to her. the decent thing
• is to withdraw. and leave her
° free to rise from the ashes of
* her memories and start a new
• and better life.
u Perhaps this is what the num
• has done. At any rate, if he
° has any decency in him, he is
• suffering now for the grief he
a caused you. So why hate him?
° Rather hate yourself for -being
" so weak; admit your own re-
• sponsibility, and go on, a
* wiser girl, from now on.
o One other truth: If you had
a really loved him, you would
° wish him well, despite your
pre: -:rt anguish.
Affairs with married men at -
most invariably result in the
girl's anguish and humiliation.

We feet muco happier now
than we did a week ago — hap-
pier because one big field of hay
has been baled and most of the
bales stacked away in the barn.
Of course it was not first quality
hay — although there was never
a better field -- but hay that is
soaked and then bleached soon
deteriorates. However, what it
lacked in quality was made up
for in quantity. Partner slid he
never handled such heavy bales.
Come on in
he water's finel
It is a dull, grey morning right
now, and the robins are singing,
so I imagine we shall get more
rain before the field is finished.
Ever noticed how the robins sing
before a rain? We shall be glad
to have all the hay off the field
so the second crop can have a
chance to grow — and here's
hoping we have better weather
to take it off.
While all the hay was still out
something rather strange hap-
pened around here. One night,
while Partner was milking, I
drove over to the next conces-
sion for some strawberries that
had been ordered, On the way
home it began to rain. Before I
had the ear in the garage it was
raining heavily and I had to
make a quick run from the driv-
ing -shed to the house. The rain
pelted down for about ten min-
utes. But it didn't rain at the
barn! Partner was halfway to
the house before he noticed his
boots getting wet, He coulo hard-
ly believe the evidence of his
own eyes We have often heard
of one farm getting rail, and
maybe the farm across thr road
not getting it, but that was our
first experience of a sharp divid-
ing line on own property.
Well, one has only iu look
around the country these clays
to realize, the season is well en
its way. Wheat is ripening fast
-- and wheat is the beginning. of
the end. insofar as the harvest
is concerned. Pretty soon we
shall be looking around and
wondering where the summer
has gone to. Don't we always do
that, year after year? But I do
hope when it comes to August 21,
those of us who have tickets for
"Canada Day" will have nothing
come up to prevent our using
them; and if we start ramming
now maybe we are not as likely
to be disappointed. Of course 1
am referring to the Women's In-
stitute pageant that is being
staged in. Toronto for the Asso-
ciated Country Wo' r of the
World. from ess. L.„i
come my way tide tleu enldone
undertaking is now well under-
way. Tiekets are selling like hot -
cakes. Chartered busses nova al-
ready been spoken for. So now
it only remains for farm woolen
to make their own individual
plans. For goodness sax(' don't
take the attitude that the latter
part of August is a busy time
and that you probably won't be
able to take a day off anyway.
You certainly won't if you ac-
cept it as a foregone conclusion!
You know, staying home be-
comes a habit — just as running
around too much also becomes
a habit. And it is usually the
woman who is to blame. You
can't expect a busy farmer to
keep track of Institute and W, A.
meetings. So if his wife stays
home lie thinks it is because she
doesn't want to go. How many
farmers know anything about
this big event coming up *in
August? Well, Mr. Farmer, if
you should happen to read this
column, and your over-eonscien-
tious wife hasn't told you that
she would like to be away on
August 21, then I'm, telling you
now. Just ask her about it —
what is more give her a little
shove if necessary. If she is too
late to get a ticket for the 21st
then she could still take in the
Pageant on the 22nd, This oppor-
tunity may not occur again for
possibly another fifteen years.
And while we are on the sub-
ject of the Pageant have you any
old pioneer relics stowed away
in the attic? If so get them out of
mothballs because t h e W. I.
would like tq borrow them,
whether you are an institute
member or not. .An historical
event of this magnitude requires
a lot of antiques so the W. I. is
asking for all kinds of old-time
clothing — for men and women
too, also uniforms of the fight-
ing forces for any period up to
1929. Indian dress and headgear
is also required, as are black
suits, hats and bonnets of the
Mennonites. The pageant also
needs spinning wheels, churns,
cradles, old fashioned farm im-
plements, powder horns and lan-
terns. There is a collection centre
in Toronto and all the loaned
articles will be treated with care
and returned to their owners
after the pageant. Perhaps each
branch could canvass its mem-
bers and send in a collection as
representatives of their own par-
ticular branch, I have been in
many homes where they have
some wonderful relics of the
past. I am sure great -grandma
and great -grandpa would be
highly honoured if they could
know their homespun garments
and pioneer farm implements are
helping to reveal the past to our
present generation.

How You .Can Keep
White Nylon WHITE
Summer means more white
garments in the laundry and
greater washing care, Since white
is the most fragile color to main-
tain, improper laundering of any
white fabric soon will result in
discoloration. Despite its well-
known washing ease, white nylon
is 210 exception.
Whenever white nylon garm-
ents lose their original gleam
and become slightly yellow or
grey, laundry methods should be
examined.
White Nylon clothing should be
washed frequently in creamy
suds and water hot enough to
remove dirt thoroughly. If a
water softener or a detergent
containing one hasn't been used
in an area where the water is.
hard, then the soap curds may
be responsible for the off-white
shade. The rule of washing color-
ed and white garments separ-
ately also applies to nylon, as it
too tends to pick up dyes readily,
As nylon is strong even when
wet, clothing can be washed vig-
orously when necessary. Nylon
garments can be put in the wash-
ing machine provided seams and
trimmings are securely stitched
and in no danger of fraying Or
tearing. To avoid unnecessary
wrinkling, squeeze water out by
hand instead of using the wring-
er or spin drier. It is, of course,
wiser to wash sweaters, stockings
and socks by hand.
Like other white fabrics, nylon
garments require thorough rins-
ing. A single rinsing will not re-
move all soap from shampooed
hair, nor is it enough for white
nylon. . Two rinsings in clear,
warm water are considered a
minimum.
Strong bleaches should be
avoided as they will weaken ny-
lon as much as •any other fibre.
They should be used carefully
when necessary, following direc-
tions for cotton if none arg, given,
for nylon, There are whitening
agents compounded to improve
the appearance of garments that
have been worn many times and
have become slightly discolored.
When washing tricot shirts and
blouses, extra soiled collars and
cuffs can be rubbed briskly with
a cellulose sponge. Ironing can
be skipped altogether by hanging
them to drip-dry on a hanger
without squeezing otit the water.
BRIDAL ERROR
A newly -married society girl
was determined to prove to her
husband what an accomplished
cook she was, and on the ser-
vant's day off, set about cooking
a chicken for his dinner. She
plucked the fowl carefully, ar-
ranged it neatly in a pot, and put
it in the oven.
Two hours later she heard a
loud banging on the oven door.
Investigation proved that the
disturbance was being made by
the chicken. "Lady,” it cried
piteously, "either give me back
my feathers or turn on the gas.
I'm freezing to death in this
oven."

house at Vence, a small town

He is eighty-one and has not
been in England since 1951. He
