Almost any daily newspaper's front page will run the gamut from top to bottom and the same unrest and dissatisfaction may be noted in every walk of life. On Easter Sunday, a 23 -year old father, separated from his wife, left his two chil- dren, a three-year-old daughter and two- year-old son, abandoned in a Brooklyn church rectory, dressed in fine Easter clothes. The note left with the children said that the father loved his children dearly but that he was very sick and had to abandon them. The note said, "Please God, take care of my kids. I love them both" The sickness to which he referred was emotional distress. How can one who loves his children abandon them, while at the same time declaring that he loves them? Yet this is indicative of the type of prob- lem with which nations, governments and individuals universally are faced. These are some of the disturbing thoughts, facts and problems which most of us don't care to face, much Iess attempt to solve. But if the world is to continue its existence, the consternation and turmoil wrought through warring causes and ad- verse circumstances must be met, chal- lenged and overcome. If the currently existing leaders and governments cannot cope with the situations, then new ones must be raised up who can provide solu- tions. Nor must anyone be so naive as to think all these problems will be solved at high government levels even by the finest of inspired leadership. If the world is to find itself properly balanced in every respect, the entire gamut of human beings, from the humblest and lowliest, will have to pitch in and do his share. While the U.S. and Russia, as na- tions, find a solution for the Vietnam prob- lem, the 23 -year-old father in Brooklyn will have to find a way of being reconciled to his wife and provide a home for his two little children. As the father left the chil- dren in the care of God, so national leaders may have to entrust world conditions into the care of God. But each man will have to do something about it himself, whether he be peasant, prelate or prime minister. Whoever you are, YOU can change the world— and it badly needs changing. — (Nanton (Alta.) News) My Aching Heart Editorials are not intended to be heart- throb columns and this won't be one. On the other hand, varying types of heart troubles are today's number one killer in the world. What is commonly known as "heart attack" lays more people low than any other known disease. While one can- not afford to live in fear of the shadow of a heart attack, neither can he ignore it, because people of every age, social status, color, race and creed have become victims of this dreaded foe. It won't do any harm to think about it for a few minutes. The amount of manual labor one does has no particular affect on the normal healthy heart. However, nervous tensions, worry. anxiety and other types and causes of hypertension do take their toll on the pump of the life stream. A wife's nagging, an employer's badgering, a client's persis- tant begging— can send a person to the hospital, and often to his grave, because of a heart attack resulting from this type of tension. It's not the amount of work we do that gets us but the tension that mounts up as we think of all we should have done that wasn't done. Sometimes it's not even what we didn't do, but what people keep re- minding us we didn't do, that creates the tension that finally amounts to the straw that broke the camel's back. So if you don't want an aching heart learn to take an easy attitude toward things and people that eventually cause a heart attack. If you want to be a friend and don't want your mate or neighbor to suffer from an aching heart learn the fine art of patience and understanding. Avoid nagging. Don't do things that put your friends in a bind. Avoid saying and doing things that will create pressure on those who are probably already overloaded. Learning to be patient and avoiding getting fussed up about the slowness of others could do two things—it could save you from high blood pressure and your erst- while slow friends from a heart attack. Nobody really wants an aching heart.— (Nanton (Alta.)

Are you frozen with terror, these days? You're not? Then wake up you vegetable. You're supposed to be. Haven't you noticed the re-- entless campaign to scare the living daylights out of us ordin- nary souls? There seems to be a conspiracy, in t h e commun- ications media, to put you and me and our wives and kids into a perpetual state of fear. Advertising is the most prev- alent, though not the most pow- erful„ weapon of the scaremong- ers. It is suggested that if we have greasy hair or a greasy sink we're sunk; that if we don't use a certain s *a p. we stink; that if we don't drink a man's beer, we're a bunch of you- know-whats. a corner because 'of: high-priced funerals; the computer, which is going to put me out of a job; the unfulfilled housewife; and all the leisure time I'm going to have next year, when auto- mation takes over. You'll no- tice I haven't even mentioned nuclear fission, which is old hat, nor the squirrels in my attic who, at this moment, ac- cording to an article, are chew- ing my wiring to start a fire in which we'll all be cremated, and clo we have enough insurance? if people weren't basically so tough, sensible and mean they'd all go to bed and pull the covers over their heads. Fortunately, we're as sensitive as an old rubber boot. But, in case the scare -distributors are bothering you, let me give you a formula that is guaranteed to steady the nerves. One thing at a time. Communists—most of us are twice as scared of our wives as we are of the Red menace. Cancer — you want to live forever? Creeping Socialism — better than the galloping type. The Computor—so who want- ed a job in the first place? Leisure Time — be happy to have a chance to sit on your butt. Unfulfilled Housewives—fill them. Well, all this is enough to up a certain nervous tension in the ordinary amiable chap. What man wants to admit he's a failure because he can't rush out to his friendly neighborhood dealer and snap up an all-new Super Aurora Borealis Shooting Star Sedan, with safety belts? Or has dandruff? But this is for the morons, You know,al] the people who don't read this colume. If they want to wind up with acid sto- machs, upset nerves, migraine headaches and irregularity, as constipation i s now known, serves them right. Anybody who is frightened by that kind of ad- vertising deserves it. But it is not on the humble commercial -watcher that the big guns of the horror --brigade are trained. It is on the serious reader -viewer. They have moved, lock, stock and fright-- fuls, into the newspaper, mag- azine, book and "serious" TV fields Every time I pick up, leaf through, or switch on one of these media, someone is trying to frighten -the wits out of me about something. It's a bit hard for a fellow to cope with. Black headlines or graphic pictures suggest that I'm sup- posed to be shaken rigid about Communists, and cancer; birth control .and 'bingo; high school drop -outs and homosexualism. Simultaneouly, I'm supposed to , be stricken by integration and insulation. If I'n1 not in favor of the former, there'll be a terrible blood -bath. If I'm agin the latter, my heating bill will soar.
