WHAT A. RISK!
"Dear Anne Hirst: Four
months ago I met a man who
had just got his divorce from
his third wife; they had been
married only a short time. I
feel in love, and he claims he
loves me. He has taken me
everywhere, and brought me
lovely gifts. (I hear he Is dat-
ing another girl, but he denies
this.)
"I have been married and
divorced, and have a baby.
Shall E take this man seriously,
or 'look the field over?'
UNDECIDED"
To marry a man who has
had three wives and failed to
hold one, is reason enough of
Itself to wonder what is wrong
with him. It certainly does
not recommend him as a hus-
band,
To marry anyone whom you
have known only a few
months is a terrible chance to
take. How can you possibly
know whether you two are
well suited?
I'm afraid' you are letting
your heart rule your thinking.
You fell in love with your
husband, but couldn't get

Time is a queer thing. On a
Saturday don't you. often look
back and wonder where the
week has gone to? Other tirnes
the beginning of the week
seems such a long way off. But:;.
still, .fast °.or sem, time "Ise ease'v
tainly moving on. The Exhibir
tion is over, fall: fairs are com-
ing up, children are back to
school, days are getting shorter
and all the hundred and one
extra jobs we hope to get done
before the leaves fall are
crowding in on us. Isn't that
the way you feel? But cheer up
that sort of feeling is inevit-
able with the early days of
autumn, and yet we always do
get through, don't we?
But what is it makes one
week seem longer or shorter
than another? You know how
it is — sometimes we plan to
do this and that, and then, at
the end of the week, because
of unforseen interruptions, we
find we have accomplished lit-
tle more than ordinary every-
day chores. Isn't it on such de;
casions that time seems to have
slipped away? On the other
hand we occasionally — and 1
do mean occasionally -- get
done even more than we had
planned, andthen it is we can
hardly believe that only a week
has gone by. That is what hap-
pened around here last week ---.
but it was more by luck than
good management. Monday of
last week was Labour Day. We
were not expecting company so,
since we were down to our last
kitchen towel and teacloth, I
got ready for a big wash. I was
busily sorting the first lot ready
for the machine when Johnny
blew in and announced that he
wanted to thresh his field of
oats that day — the field that
he had sown on our farm, Could
I feed four er five extra men
for dinner? Could 1? For a.few
minutes 1 was h, a dither.
Stores were closed . had 1
enough food in the house to
feed seven people for dinner?
Yes, I know some farmer's
wives have that many and pos-
sibly more, to feed every day.
But at least you are • prepared
ler it. But when there is a fam-
ily of two, tripling up on a meal
isn't so easy, especially with the
stores closed. °Howrever, I told
Johnny to go ahead, I would
manage somehow. And I did —
and everyone got enough to
eat, I also got my washing done,
and the ironing — thanks to
Partner helping me out in the
morning.
It seemed stranger to have a
threshing machine on the farm
again after a lapse of four
years. More strange still to see
horses at work — there were.
four teams drawing in. When
SUE 40 .:N. 154
Johnny first mentioned thresh-
ing we thought the oats would
be too tough but he turned out
some of the stooks ahead of
time and they went through the
machine ell right. By five
o'clock' the oats were threshed
and the machine on its way out.
1r 'oar the next hour Partner arid
Johnny were bagging: up the
screenings in the barnyard be
fore the cows could get is
chance to gorge themselves —
with possibly disastrous results.
Tuesday and Wednesday were
hot, wet and humid. But Thurs-
day was a red letter day. It was
our local W. I. meeting and we
had as guest speaker, Miss Sybil
Bennett, Federal member of
parliament for Halton County,
and a very able lawyer. Miss
Bennett is well-known to many
;of the Members of our branch,
and .we also knew her as an
,excellent speaker. Her subject
was.'the making' of a will, parti-
cularly' in regard to* farm folk.
Naturally she stressed the im-
leniance of both husband and
wife ,makang a will, but she .also
ouched • on the almost equally
b portent matter of filling ire
me tax returns, and explain-
qate the settlement of ;err
#til be ' ` r;°otheiga deirgain
sky:case' where such returns
:cad; not been made. "If you are
not• filing returns," said Miss
Bennett,. "don't think you are
getting away with anything just
because the government doesn't
check up on you and request
you to do so, The government
has become tired of sending out
requests 'and warnings. Now it -
lets the matter ride until an
estate. has to settled. Then the
government steps in and if re-
turns have not been made each
year then the government may
demand income tax returns,
possibly for the past ten years."
Miss Bennett ekplained the
worry and extra work this
brings to the widow and the
executors — work and worry
that can easily be avoided if
every farmer makes a point of
filing income tax returns each
year, as required by law —
even though your: NET income
may be ha the nontaxable
bracket. You may know that
but the government doesn't un•
less you make returns to prove
it.
It was all very good advice
but 1 am afraid we forgot all
about wills and succession dn•
ties in our excitement over the
marvellous achievement of that
delightful little girl, Marilyn
Bell. We admired her not only
for her courage and endurance
in completing the swim but for
her fine character and person-
ality.
