DEAR DORIS --- 1 expect to
retire soon and that is what I
am afraid of. I have raised a
family — all married now. My
marriage is particularly joyless.
Recently I met the girl I
should have married many
years ago. I feel we have tra-
velled parallel paths and our
recent communication proved
that we have never forgotten
those few weeks when we were
single.
What harm would a day or
two with this old girl friend do,
from a yearly vacation? Don't
you think the rejuvenation
could be a shot in the arm
when we are back to work in
our own communities?
Sad Grand -Dad .
DEAR SAD — Exciting pros-
pect — but wouldn't it be like
rubbing salt in an old wound?
Even assuming the contact
would be merely that of a
friend with mutual interests,
could it stay that way?
Much as I sympathize, I sim-
ply can't give you a go-ahead on
this.
DEAR DORIS — Our math
teacher is impatient with those
who are a bit slow, and he
rushes through each chapter as
if it were a race. When we ask
for extra help we are politely
refused.
I have failed this exam, for I
wasn't able to finish (along
with many others). I am not as.
fortunate as one of my friends
who has a math teacher living
nearby who helps her for one
hour a night. Doris, is there
anywhere I can get help?
One Plus One Equals Three
DEAR ONE—If your teacher
can't give extra help, go to the
iiiMignSEMECIIMMIMMIPP
BOB'S
Barber Shop
MAIN STREET, ZURICH
principal. Ask for a suggestion
about someone who would coach
atavel. aq raglaunn acs x0 • mit
er who helps your friend would
tutor you, for a fee, for a time.
If the teacher is not adequate
this will become obvious. But
even the most brilliant of stu-
dents occasionally needs indi-
vidual help.
DEAR DORIS—For the past
two years I have run very wild
and got an extremely bad repu-
tation as a make -out girl. The
boys used to take me out for
only one reason.
Now I've niet this wonderful
boy. He knows about what I've
done from other people. He
still says he loves me; but also
says he can't believe me when
I tell him I love him. He wants
me to go out with other boys
but to behave to show I've
really changed,
He says only when I've proved
that I have, will he believe me.
Every time I see him we seem
to fight. He doesn't like me to
swear; I never really did (just
d— and like that); but now I'm
not even supposed to say that.
Whenever he gets mad, I'm not
supposed to lose my temper at
all. Right now I'm so mixed up
I don't know what to do. I
really have changed, but no one
believes it.
Changed But
DEAR CHANGED — Hang
onto the lifeline. At Ieast some-
one cares about the real you
and is ready to be convinced.
The road to Perdition is still
paved with good intentions, and
you really need to proved to
yourself that you've changed.
Not by going out on a chaste
date with a member of the old
gang; but by learning to respect
your body and yourself in any
company.
Your new boy friend is no
exception. Keep him at arm's
length. No need for solo dates
with other boys. But you can
socialize with others at parties
in such a way as to show your-
self and hint that you are a
changed woman.
CO-OP Farm Gasoline burns out gum
deposits— prevents overich mixtures.
With ordinary, regular gasolines, the slow operating
speeds and frequent idling of tractor enginescause
excessive gum deposits in the carburetor. Not with
CO-OP Farm Gasoline. That's because CO-OP Farm
Gasoline was developed especially to meet farm
driving conditions.
A special carburetor detergent eliminates gum de-
posits, keeps the throttle clean and prevents those
costly too -rich mixtures.
A built-in rust inhibitor protects vital engine parts
reduces downtime to a minimum.
You get smoother ail -round performance plus a
big saving in your fuel bill with CO-OP FARM
GASOLINE.

Mount Carmel, Mr. and Mrs.
John Mahoney; from Goshen
Line south, Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Dietrichand family, and from
Elgin, Illinois, their son Leon-
ard, who spent almost a week
with his parents.
On Friday last, we were
greeted with a few inches of
snow, the first of the winter.
What will follow is anyone's
guess. Some believe, even
starting late, it may be a hard
winter. True, there is plenty
of time for much cold and, as
well, snow banks to contend
with. Your opinion, sir, yes;
and to you, sir, your opinion,
no.
Watch the days as they pass
on, for only the passing of time
will tell.
Away back in the year of
1940, December 31, when Mr,
Dominique Jeffrey, a native
born of St. Joseph, and Miss
Thelma Siemon, also of St. Jo-
seph, motored to St. Peter's
Parish Church, and with their
attendants, Miss Lucille Jef-
frey as bridesmaid, and Mr.
Harold Siemon as best man
marched up the aisle to the
altar to receive the sacrament
of marriage by Father Martin,
who was the celebrant of the
mass and ceremony and to pro-
nounce them husband and wife.
There was a large attendance
in the church to witness the
occasion which showed the high
esteem in which the young
couple were held.
.After their marriage, with
the exception of a short period,
the young couple made their
home in this neighborhood,
where Mr. Jeffrey is a building
contractor. Mr. and Mrs. Jef-
frey now reside in St. Joseph.
On Friday last, December 31,
1965, and on New Year's Day,
a celebration of importance
took place at the Jeffrey home
in St. Joseph, when their family
of 12 children and two daugh-
ters-in-law, added to the family
were present to witness the
occasion of the parents 25th
wedding anniversary of their
married life. The bride's par-
ents were present, also the
families of the Jeffrey's in St.
Joseph and surrounding terri-
tory.
After a New Year church
service, the family gathered at
their home where all were in
preparation and where a dainty
meal had been prepared with
refreshments to make the day
a happy one. The family's gift
to their parents was a lazy -boy
chair. The couple also received
many valuable gifts from rela-
tives and friends. The Jeffreys
have the best wishes of this
community for many more years
of a happy married life.
As usual the New Year holi-
day of this year of 1966 has
brought much gaiety to all but,
as usual, it has also in its path-
way, given grief to many inno-
cent ones due to accidents. In
the early years of this parish,
almost 120 years ago, there
were few accidents on the road-
way and if any, they were
caused by driving too fast over
the snowy roads, which at that
time were not plowed or lev-
elled in any way and the traffic
of long sleighs caused pitch -
holes. Of course, in that day,
the going over the roads was
not so fast but with their good
road horses they travelled along
and many times when going
over pitch -holes they almost
jerked out their sleigh; some
came from a long ways to be
with their parents, for what
they called New Year's break-
fast. In most homes breakfast
was the main meal of the day.
It was served in the wee hours
of the morning, long before day
break. This meant early rising
for Mom and Dad before they
had the fire -place going to heat
the little log house. It took
some time before it was suf-
ficiently warm to give comfort
to the arriving families. If
New Year's morning was a cairn
one, you could hear, from a
distance, th e jingling of the
sleigh -bells for a long distance,
also the barking of the family
dogs and the kerosene lamps
along the road flickering a dim
light along the way. Most of
the settlers were up expecting
their children: since it was still'
new land it was a dense forest
and many wild animals were at
lar g e and occasionally one
would cross the road way, such
as wolves or bears or perhaps
other forest animals, but the
Jingling of the sleigh -bells
would chase them away. Set-
tlers at that time were used to
them and did not cause them
much worry.
