For over two years I've gone with a young man I love madly, .. . Two months ago he told me his parents do not like me, and that he cannot afford to oppose them because he works for his father. He claims he loves me more than ever but says he's so mix- ed up he doesn't know where to turn. "Why his family disapprove, I don't know. I've never been in his home, though I have met most of them. In spite of all the mean things I hear they've said about me, I have no ill feelings and I think I could get along with them. I come from a good family, and we have a fine life together. I've an excellent posi- tion, belong to the nicest organi- zations in town, and have loads of friends. Those who know about his family's objection are as amazed as I am. "The young man is 30, I'm 25. Surely he should have a mind of his own? . . . Now I see him only at lunch.

One old friend now wants to marry me; his family are grand, but I am only fond of him. He would make a good husband, though, "Please help me! Shall I stop seeing the man I love? Marry the other boy? Or leave town for a while? JUDY." * To help the man you love * make up his mind, stop seeing * him at all. Perhaps his father * is using their business associa- * tion to influence him,- and the * prospect of seeking a liveli- * hood elsewhere does not ap- * peal to him. Some young men .x are like that. Why his family * object to you, no one can say * —unless they have already * chosen this other girl foe him. * Some parents are like that, *• too. * If his family wins out, lean- * ing town for a while (as you * consider) will help you to re- * cover from that blow. You * will be away from both these * men who care for you, and * that has its advantages for it * will give you a clearer per- * spective. Meantime, don't * leave the other young man in * any doubt, let him know you * are not in love, though you * like hint. If you decide to re- * main at home, his attentions * will be comforting, and you * will need all the comfort you * can get. * Love will surely come to * you again. READER REBUKES "Dear Anne Hirst: You must have an overworked imagina- tion. Have all these things you write about really happened to you — or how do you know about then.? "About that wife's letter con- cerning her domineering hus- band. Why don't you get HIS side of it?

"You talk like a woman that stops working at 10 or 11 p.m. and spends the next few hours at a floor show.... I'm a regu- lar reader, and feel I have the right to tell you this. READER." * Every letter that is printed * in this column comes through * the mail from readers who ask for my opinion. In many * cases I could be twice as help- * ful if both people concerned * wrote me their separate view- * points; now and then they do; * but not as often as I should * like. I have no doubt that * some complaints are exagger- * ated, but I have to accept the * situation itself as they depict 4' it, and with honest intent, at * least. * * e.

Very little ice, no snow to speak of, bare roads and good driving conditions. Not quite so good on the back roads — but passable, We were particularly thankful for good weather last week as we had trouble at the barn --one cow with milk fever, another with digestive trouble, and the rest not too lively. Part- ner says he is to blame for feed- ing them too well. I suppose cows are much the same as hu- mans—more of them suffer from over -eating than from under- feeding. Anyway, our cows last week provided us with plenty of extra work and worry. Every- thing is back to normal now, thank goodness, and without any loss of life. It is wonderful the results modern' veterinary medi- cine can achieve. If our sick cow had had milk fever ten years ago the chances are we would have lost her. This week there will be more ' xcitement, but of a different kind. On Friday we expect to be "converted" -- by'a change- over from 25 to 60 cycle. We are wondering if we shall notice any difference in our lamps and motors. That I shall be able to tell you next week. And in connection with hydro like everyone else we were deeply shocked to learn of the death, through a plane crash, of that energetic personality, Chair- man Robert Saunders. He had a tremendous responsibility and no one could have worked hard- er than he to promote the St. - Lawrence Seaway project. It just seems too bad that he will not be here to see the comple- tion of that gigantic undertak- ing. A comparatively young man, " Mr:. Saunders, except for his untimely death, would un- doubtedly have given many years of valuable service to On- tario. His passing will be a shock to farm folk in every part of rural Ontario, as he did much to provide the means of hydro service to those in isolated dist- ricts. Another public sea -vice, the progress of which we are watch-. ing with interest, is . the installa- tion of new poles and wiring by the Bell Telephone Company, in preparation for a change -over • to the dial system in July of this year. We are really going mod- ern aroud here! However, the party line will still be with us but with less on each line. Six instead of the present fifteen --at least, so we have been informed. In the meantime we are subject to the inconveniences that pre- cede any change in public ser- vice. There are short power in- terruptions it infrequent inter- vals and occasionally the tele. phone line is completely dead. And no doubt conditions will get worse before they are better, so I guess we shall have to take it in our stride. That we can do. What is a good deal harder to take is the.. announcement made last week by our Federal Minister of Agri- culture, the Honourable Mr. James Garcliner, who said that except Cor• the wheat crop failure in the west, 1954 would have been a good year for Canadian farmers! What a good idea it would be to have Mr. Gardiner. change places with an average hundred -acre farmer for a couple ====z--44====-,====. ISSUE 8 -.» 1958 of years, with little in the bank and probably a mortgage on the farm. It would benice to have Mr. Gardiner feed and care for a few hundred laying hens; look after collecting .the .eggs, clean, pack and ship them, and then get 300 a dozen for Grade A Large! If he compared the cash returns with the cost of feeding the birds, Mr. Gardiner might get quite a surprise. In fact, as an economy measure, Mr. Gar- diner might do as we have been doing live on a steady meat diet of boiling fowl. Actually, we have eaten so many hens the last few weeks we are wonder- ing if there is any danger of us starting to cackle: We would also like to have Mr. Gardiner shipping milk. He might then wonder, as we do, why farmers should be requir- ed to ship a .given quantity of "surplus" milk at $2.40 a hund- red pounds, which must be sup- plied to the dairy in order to keep up the quota that sells at approximately $4:40 a hundred. Yes, after a couple of years as an average farmer, Mr. Gardiner might find the farmer's income is influenced by other factors be- sides the prairie wheat crop. It might be brought home to him, the hard way, that everything he had to buy had a way of in- creasing in price while every- thing he had to sell was on the decline. Mr. Gardiner, we are fully aware, is a farmer, but if he were a farmer, minus his position as a cabinet minister, we rather fancy he would have to do a lot of juggling to make the scales bal- ance at all. THE LEGAL MIN» Counsel was cross-examining a witness. He asked: "And on llth November you say you call- ed upon Mrs. Murphy. Now, what did she say—" "I object to that question," interrupted opposing counsel. After 'a fierce argument , be- tween counsel, the judge allow- ed the question. "And, as I was saying," con- tinued counsel, "you called upon Mrs. Murphy. Now, what did she say?" "Nothing—she was Out." meal Etiquette Q. When is it proper to begin calling new acquaintances by their first names? A. People today call each other by their given names much earlier than formerly, One must, however, sense the proper moment to drop formali- ties. If everyone else in the circle in which you move uses first names, you are at liberty to follow the trend. Q. Is it considered proper for a bride to telephone her thanks for wedding gifts received? A. Never, under any circum- stances,' should she thank friends for wedding gifts by telephone or in person. A per- sonal note must be sent prompt- ly upon receipt of each gift. Q. Is It proper ever to blow on hot foods or liquids to. hasten their cooling? A. It is better not. Q. Is it proper for a roan, who meets a woman on the street and who removes his hat in greeting her, to keep his hat in his hand during any conversa- tion he might have with the woman? A. This is not necessary. He may replaces his hat on his head soon after greeting her. Q, I see bread and butter plates on some tables, and on others none. Is It proper to use them? A. They are not used at for- mal dinners, although they ap- pear quite regularly on the family dinner table, and often on the informal company din- ner table, too. Q. Is it the duty of the bride - elect to buy the dresses and ac- cessories for her attendants? A, No; it is her privilege to choose the designs and material, but the attendants must pay for their own outfits, Q, Isn't it all right for a ena'n to take the . arni of a woman companion when walking .along the street? A. No. He may, however, as- sist an elderly woman by taking. her arm, and he may guide any woman companion when cross- ing streets or assist her in ae- °ending or descending stair- ways. Q. Is It correct to have one's telephone number engraved on personal stationery? A. No; the telephone number is never used on personal sta- tionery. Q. I have noticed some people taking a heaping spoonful of Ice cream, and then making • several mouthfuls°of it. Is this proper? A. No. Only enough for one mouthful should be taken at a time.
