SHE CAN'T COOK OR SEW
DEAR DORIS -- I am a 22 -
year -old male who is planning
to be wed in the near future
although I am not engaged. My
mother says I should not marry
this girl because she does not
know much about ,cooking and
sewing. Both my mother and
father do not like the fact that
she is a member of a couple of
protest groups and makes occa-
sional public appearances.
I would like to marry her but
there is one thing stopping me.
My parents are quite well off
and I know if I`marry this girl
they will leave me very little in
their wills, with my sister get-
ting most of their holdings.
Problem Parents
DEAR PROBLEM — It all
sounds pretty cut and dried.
Can't cook. Can't sew. Appears
in public. Tut tut!
Not only that, but you have
taken on the color of these cold
considerations, too. You'll have
to decide whether an eventual
legacy is preferrable to the
privilege of selecting your own
mate.
Can't seem to find the word
love anywhere in your letter.
and Mrs. Douglas Lapp, Wing -send you my leaflet, "What
ham. Is Love?", in case you are won-

DEAR DORIS — I am 69,
crippled with arthritis, and
have a 14 -year-old girl running
my errands.
During my working years I
was a homesteader. As long as
I rubbed elbows with horses
and cows, and an occasional
neighbor, I was satisfied. Now
since I have to sit alone at
home, there builds up tension.
I call it electric energy.
I told my trouble to the girl
and asked her to hold hands
with me. My tension vanished,
She is quite willing to do this,
She stands with me for about
10 minutes; and talk.
But what does the law say?
Do I molest the girl by holding
hands? Can she give support
to get out of the bathtub?
Where I live there are no
facilities for the chronically ill.
No Helping Hand
DEAR NO — Human beings
need affection, the touch of a
hand, physical contact with
other humans. And you do not
"molest" your errand girl by
holding her hand.
But don't keep it up. A girl
of 14 is young, idealistic, im-
pressionable. Her emotions
are ready to be awakened to a
wholesome interest in the op-
posite sex.
She should not hold your
hand, help you out of the bath-
tub nor do any small, intimate
services for you. Far better
for you to seek the services of
a mature nurse or househeeper.
The Canadian Arthritis and
Rheumatism Society will take
an interest in your problems.
Write to them at their National
Office, 900 Yonge Street, To-
ronto 5, for steering to their
nearest branch.
DEAR DORIS — I kept house
for a widower for a number of
years, and later married him.
Now his boy who is at home
argues and is making it miser-
able all the time. I even find
that I dislike the others (the
older one) when they come to
visit.
I get along with the youngest
girl but I have been thinking
of leaving as it is affecting my
health, these constant upsets.
I hope you can help me. My
husband thinks a lot of his chil-
dren. He thinks I am in the
wrong.
Heart Trouble
DEAR HEART — Strange to
say, marrying a man doesn't
automatically make you fall in
love with his children.
Step -relationships are among
the toughest to handle; what
with clashing loyalties, posses-
sive, nose -out -of -joint children,
set -in -their -ways adults!
A cardinals rule is for the
new -marrieds to present a unit-
ed front—and there's the rub!
I'm sending you my leaflet
about "How Another .Stepmoth-
er Sees It," which many "steps"
have found helpful. (Available
to •other readers for ten cents
and a stamped envelope.)
DIAL EQUIPMENT is now being installed in the new
building located in the village of Dashwood, in preparation
for the cut -over on November 6. Here Harold Zehr, left,
line foreman for the Hay Municipal System, is shown check-
ing some of the equipment along with Jack Hetherington,
an employee of Northern Electric, the company which is
installing the new equipment.
HEALTH TIPS
from the CMA
Important factors in care of
the eyes are knowledge of what
is likely to damage them and
ability to recognize symptoms
of eye disease, the Canadian
Medical Association reports.
Just as it is necessary for
anyone working in a plant or
shop where fragments of ma-
terial are flying around to wear
protective goggles, it is equally
important to take precautions
when similar conditions prevail
when working around the home
or farm. One common cause
of eye injury is in the use of
a hammer and punch or cold
chisel, when a sharp fragment
from the head of the hammer
may fly into the eye.
While many causes of eye
injury can be avoided, eye dis-
ease may develop without one
knowing there is anything
wrong. One example of this is
glaucoma, in which eye pres-
sure becomes high. The CMA
suggests it is wise for people
over 40 to have eye pressure
checked by their family phys-
ician or an 'ophthalmologist
(eye physician).
In the care of children's eyes,
it is only common sense that
sling shots, air rifles and bows
and arrows must be kept from
youngsters until you are sure
they are old enough to handle
them safely. Parents should
also be impressed that any child
with ,a turn or cross eyes should
be treated without delay. Chil-
dren seldomgrow out of these
conditions without proper treat-
ment, and if the condition is
neglected, vision is often perm-
anently weakened. Proper
treatment may result in com-
plete cure.

Control of Ants
Is Now Possible
Ants can be a nuisance in
lawns and gardens, but need
not be tolerated, as effective
control is easily achieved. As
well as being bothersome, ants
are not entirely harmless, as
their colonies will spoil the ap
pearance of a good lawn or
flower bed. Entomologists with
the Ontario Department of
Agriculture and Food offer sug-
gestions for ridding your home
of the pests.
Ants are social insects, living
by thousands in colonies, and
can be treated by applying an
insecticide directly onto the
mound or "anthill". Several
ant baits, sprays, and dusts are
available. Compounds contain-
ing chlordane or dieldrin are
suggested as being the most ef-
fective. A 5% chlordane dust
should be applied at one tea-
spoon for each mound. After
spreading the dust, soak the
nest thoroughly with water. If
a large area of lawn is to be
treated, use 40% chlordane
emulsion (liquid concentrate),
applied at four tablespoons per
10 gallons water for each 500
square feet.
More than one application of
insecticide may be required, be-
fore the insects are completely
checked. Often, however, one
treatment with chlordane or
dieldrin will give satisfactory
results for three to five years.
Repeat the treatment carefully,
if needed, and according to the
manufacturer's directions.
