Illy daughter, •a high school senior,
started going with a divorced man.
1 am very much
against divorce
and have talked
to her, but to no
avail.
"Ile bought
her a winter
coat, gave her a
birthstone ring.
1.ater we found
he had stolen
the money; but others made it good,
and he wasn't arrested.
"He has little education, and
comes from a 'low-down' fancily.
His parents are divorced, and his
smother is not even living now with
her second husband.
"He is most disrespectful to her
father and me, and doesn't even
speak to us when he eaters our
home. If I talk to him, he laughs
in my face. I have tried to tell her
that anyone so hateful to older
people cannot possibly be good or
kind to his wife. It makes no im-
pression.
A BAD INFLUENCE
"Since going with hint, I've had
three letters from her principal,
saying her graduation is doubtful!
My husband works very hard to
keep a nice home for us and give
her an education. He, with our
two sons, see no immediate solu-
tion to the affair.
"My relatives are blaming me,
saying I should order the man

But now everything has changed.
I amu heartbroken. She is not even
polite any more, and says she is of

do hope you can give rue a little
advice to restore some peace to my
shattered nerves.
"M, R. M."
Ask your daughter to look at
this man as the father of her
children,
No matter how hypnotized she
may be, she is still intelligent.
Would she deliberately choose to
endow her children with the
blood -strain of a roan who is dis-
honest, ignorant, and lacks the
social niceties of civilization as
she knows them?
Having know perfect accord
with you, her own nnothe-, she
should realize her responsibilities
* toward any children these two
may bring into the world. This
* appeal niay move her.
* She is one of the many girls
* who is fascinated by the very
* differences between this man and
* others she has known. A million-
aire's daughter elopes with her
* riding -master. The spoiled date-
° ling of a fine old family marries
a gas -station attendant who never
s: got through grammar school. So-
* ciety pages abound with such
* mesalliances, as we call them.
4' Such girls are out for a thrill they
* have never had. Well, they get
- * their thrill -and land in the di-
* vorce courts.
"' 'With- yourself, your husband
and your sons, I see no immediate
° solution, except to let her alone.
* It is easy for your family to blame
* you. But I agree it is far bet-
h' ter to accept the man in your own
* house than to have your daughter
* leave it with him. At least now
*` you can observe the progress of
* the affair,
* Assure the girl that she has
* heard your last objection. hroum
* now on, you will not discuss the
* natter unless she asks yon to.
" That will relax her considerably.
"`.and lessen the faros• tension all
' around.
" T deplore it all, too. But a girl
* in love cannot often be swayed by
* argument. She must choose her
• own path, and take the couse-
* quences. That you will suffer
" with her if she persists, is one of
'" the consequences of being a
* mother,
* x o
If your daughter is blinded by
passion, you can do little about it.
When she suffers the consequences
of her willfulness, she will need all
your love and sympathy .. , Anne
Hirst will try to comfort you. Write
her at Box 1, 123 Eighteenth Street,

Shoe Sizes.
The size of yotlr shoes is i a -ed
on the length of a grain of barley
measuring one-third of an inch. In
medieval times the barleycorn was
much used as a standard of mea-
surement, and when the noblemen
of old decided that the shoes of
their foot soldiers need standard-
izing they selected the soldier with
the biggest feet of all.
Measuring one foot they found
it was exactly 13 inches, so called
it size 13. Size 12 they decreed
would be 13 incites minus oar bar-
leycorn or one-third of an inch.
Size 11 would he 12 curies minus
two barleycorns.
Women's sizes were also cuniited
in barleycorns, but the biggest feet
they could find among the ladies
only treasured 11 inches, so they
began with that size and called it
size 11.
This civilized country, where
people worry about the suahes that
bite the people of lnclia, kills about
one hundred persons daily on its
highways.. -Lake Mills (graphic.

At last! Two whole days with-
out rain -that's a record for this
spr'ng. All the birds and the beasts
and the flowers have cone alive
as a result. The swallows sensed
the approach of warmer weather
and carne back to the barn. Part

in flew a pair of swallows -strati ht`

to which they return year alter

birds hi one nest-oerllaps just
resting after a long flight, or per-
haps argu.ng it out as to who was
entitled to possession. tint they
didn't appear to be arguing so may-
be they were just au old married

much better than anything they
have had all winter. And we think

Seeding is late but some years

ing te, dates published' in a recent
issue of the Farmer's Advocate,

that period the earliest seeding was
in 1943, in some districts on March
27 and the latest in 1943 when seed-
ing n a, delayed until May 15, it
also said the poorest crops and
most difficult haying and harvest
followed late May scedittgs while
the best yields of spring grant were
from early April scedings. So there
you have it --forewarned is fore-

Sabbatical year is forced upon vs

Here ant I talking about the-
-warm spring weather and forget-
ting what an awful day it was last
Saturday =- rain teeming clown
every hour or so -and just after
I had had the car washed and spent
a lot of time cleaning and polishing
it. You know how it is -clean the
car and it always rains. Trying to
keep a car looking half .decent is
a tiring and discouraging business.
It being wet on Saturday we had
visitors for the week -end -three of
theta -Daughter and two of our
nieces. The nieces came on the
noon bus and Daughter at night -
she carafe later as she had promised
to take her small godson to see
Hopalong_Cassidy. They: had quite
a time at the Exhibition grounds -
Daughter' said "Honey" was doing
a wonderful job anti seemed abso-
lutely ,t're'css.
Joy went to meet the bus which
was supposed to conte in at 7:20.
She waited and waited and -finally

about two hours Iate. A new man
was driving the bus. missed the
highway„ and continual along a
stone road. Witco he realised his
mistake he tried to turn at a farm
driveway, couldn't make it and
went over the culvert into a water -
filled ditch. After that the motor
refused to function and the bus
kva, towed the remainder of the
way home ..about eight miles.
Changing over front standard to
fast time was another week -tend
highlight. I hated the thought of it
as we were already ,getting up at
5:30. And then I found it did tint
really drake much difference at all.
Set the clock ahead and forget
about there being two times and
then it doesn't hurt hardly at all.
But I do object to the C.B.C. au-
Itotttici.ng a programme in this way
--"Tune in 'at 1:30 Daylight saving
time or 12:30 farm tinge." ;Does
the C.B.C. think that Ontario
farmer's are living out in the back-
wcodseor wlt:tt? Some are. without
a 'doubt, but they are in the min-
ority. Even in the. More thickly
populated areas very few farmers
really like D.S.T. but they have
long since realised that to. stub-
bobrtrly operate on standard time
only makes things still more in-

After the Assyrians carried the

He immediately undertook to lead
the nation in a religious revival.
Ile broke the images which the
