NO COMMON INTERESTS
* Before you two married, you
* talked about each other, and your
future. But weren't you inter-
* ested then in other things too?
* -His work, certain sports, your
* friends, what's going on in the
* world?
• Mutual interests, as well as
* mutual love, keep a marriage
* exciting. Sharing opinions, dis-
* cussing the man's business, talk-
* ing over the state of the world,
* enjoying baseball together, see-
* ing your friends -all such things
* make for close companionship.
4' As one mind stimulates the other,
* they develop more and more res-
* pect for each other as individuals
* and so delight in being together'
* as the years pass by.
In other words, besides being
* lovers, they are, each other's
* best friends,
* This relationship you must try
* to develop between your husband
* and yourself.
4` Start by learning more about
* his work, if a wife listens with
* intelligence, there are few sub-
* jects closer to his heart, Take
* time out to read a good news-
* paper every day, and try to
4` digest its contents; then when
* he reads after dinner, you two
* can discuss the news. Remember
* what your husband used to enjoy
* in his leisure time - movies,
* sports, dancing or whatnot -and
* try to revive his interest in theta.
* Cultivate the friends he used to
* like being with, and visit back and
* forth. Save amusing stories you
" hear over the radio, so he'll get
4' a laugh now and then too.
* These are only first s ug e
ab S-

* as you go along.
" I agree that perhaps you are
* "trying too hard." Friendly talk
* conies naturally when two people
"` arc interested in the same things.
* Don't feel offended if at first
a, your husband doesn't respond; if
4` you keep on, you will interest
* him in spite of himself. I believe
* that his settling down and read-
* ing alone at night is only a habit.
* I believe you can pry him, plea-
* santly, out of it - unless, of
* course, you two married with
* nothing in common but mutual'
* affection. Even if that is true, you
* should be able to arouse his
* interest in y ou as a person-
* If you will stop feeling he does
* not love you, and attack the job
* intelligently.

Answer Elsewhere on This Page
NOT A WORRY IN Ti'IE WORLD -What to do when the world's
cares weigh too heavily is here demonstrated by Patrick Brown of
the St. Peter's -St. Joseph's Homes. The recipe: take a sturdy
branch, a piece of string, a bent pin, a fallen log, a quiet stream,
and arrange them in this manner. One word of caution -this
can be habit-forming.

Some weeks on a faun nothing
goes right -everything wrong that
can happen does happen. But not
last week --the only thing not ac-
cording to schedule was one of
our cows getting in with the hei-
fers -generally if the cattle get
mixed up at all it is because a
heifer jumps a fence and gets in
with the cows.

Maybe Partner might not agree
with the foregoing stateznent%s'"he
was busy most of the week clean-
ing out the barnyard with the
tractor hitched on to the spreader.
Apparently backing into the barn-
yard was quite a tricky business and
there were times when I heard
Partner talking to himself with
considerable fluency . . . "of all
the contary contraptions ... why
did 1 ever think I wanted a tractor
with horses I'd have had the
spreader backed in and half a load
on by now." One day he even had
an audience -although at the time
he didn't know it I I had a friend
spending the day with me and
while I was getting dinner she
tool< a stroll around the farm.
Partner was teased unmercifully at
dinner -time as she would not tell
him how long she had been watch-
ing him -and listenirir .
However it really has been a nice
week - weather just pleasantly
warm and sunny - except one day
when it was raining most of the
time, That, of course, was the day
of our W.I. meeting so my freshly
washed car got splattered with
mud from end to end, We also had
the census enumerator for dinner
that day, and the poor dear looked
tired out. Believe mc, anyone who
works for the government on some
of these temporary jobs deserves
every cent they are paid. But of
course, it depends on the job.
For instance, according to press
reports, Mayor McCallum is receiv-
ing $25 a day, plus travelling ex-
penses, as Consumer Representa-
tive on the Milk Board, for every
day the Board meets -and it has
already had twelve meetings. Looks
as if there is an easier way of get-
ting money out of cows than by
milking them. And with no danger
of having the cows' tails flipped
across your face, or of almost liter-
ally having to bath the cows before
you start earning your money. Oh
well , . , I suppose that's the way
of the world.

Friends from the city often bring
forth many a smile. A few weeks
ago Partner had the lane freshly
gravelled and to make cars and
trucks keep to the centre of the
lane he placed a few large stones
along either side. Apparently he
ran out of rocks and used two of
three blocks of wood instead. One
visitor said she thought we had
been drawing stovewood and some
of it had dropped off. Another
picked up one of the blocks and
wondered should she bring it up
to the house for ,i'.I

tiful little Country Church in the

church was filled to capacity. An-

ways there seems a special appeal.
in the country churches of pioneer
settlements. There, in the adjoin-
ing churchyard, are the graves of
the predecessors of many of those
who were attending church that
day. You could almost feel their
presence in the lovely old church -
taking part in the prayers and the
hymns, and maybe listening to the
sermon with a strange wonderment.
The visiting minister was the Rev.
Fred Douglas, Toronto -and he
was a very fluent and forceful
speaker.

He told us that recently in the
U.S.A. a Gallup poll was taken in
answer to the question -"What is
the most important factor in your
life today?" Eight per cent had
answered "God" -fifty-six per cent,
"Social Security I" Mr. Douglas said
that fifty years ago the figures
would probably have been exactly
the reverse, as in those days there
was more concern for the soul and
less for the material things of life.
Another pertinent question was
this -"Communists deny the exist-
ence of God . . . but how much
better are we who merely ignore

If it were possible to take an
honest Gallup poll in a Communist
country I wonder what would the
answer to the same question that
was asked in Democratic America -
"What is the most important factor

Wives Expensive?
That's Not News
The British Colonial Office re-
ported glumly that Western-style
inflation has boosted the price of
brides in East Africa among the
Gusii` tribe until they have become
a luxury item, according to an As-
sociated Press report from London.
Up until 1942 a man could get
a Grade A •'bride for six cows, one
hull and ten goats. But then the
war and the effects of civilization
began to penetrate into the British
Crown Colony of Kenya,
In 1947, there were complaints
among the young tribesmen that
they were being asked to deliver
16 crows, one bull and as many as
20 goats for the same quality wife
they could have picked up at half
the price a few years ago.
Price controls were established by
the tribal councils in order to meet
the emergency. In 1948, the. grand
tribal • council pegged the price of
a reliable brand Gusii wife at the
pre -inflation or "rollback" rate. of
six cows, one bull and ten goats.
Now, however, the Gusii economy
is suffering from "hidden" infla-
tion. Fathers with especially de-
sirable daughters are demanding
"under-the-counter" payments in
addition to the fixed price of six
cows, etc. So, the price spiral has
started all over again,

SUMMER
From the vantage point of june
we can look back on the greater
part of spring, even though the
summer solstice still lies ahead.
Looking back, with a wealth o ~.
fresh peonies around us, and with
a rainbow of iris and a garland
of roses that make the heart leap,
we can say that it was one of the
most beautiful springs in years.
Ours is a fortunate region. Some
places have little or no spring, win-
ter holding on too long and summer
arriving too early. But our winter
usually eases away, as it did this
year, and the trees have time to
leaf out leisurely and the field
flowers to take their turn. That,
after all, is what makes a springs;„
the leisurely leaf and the flowering
fields and uplands, the sprouting
and the first strong growth that
reaches toward summer and matur-
ity.
So, because the frosts died early,
we have had a spring that was a
new and growing miracle week by
week. The violets were like a pur-
ple haze, so many, so big and so
full of color. Dogwood spangled
the woods with shimmering beauty.
Lilacs outdid themselves'. and made
the evenings heady with their fra-
grance. The fruit trees were lavish
with their blossoms. Chokecherry
pow stands full of flower clusters
and bees, and the honey locust
fairly drips with blossom and sweet-
ness. Blackberries . are like white
cascades of petals. Buttercup and
hawkweed gild the meadow.
Morning after May morning it
seemed that spring had reached
its climax; and yet by evening the
maple leaves were larger still, the
grass was taller, the blossoms had
increased their number. The mir-
acle continued, as though to'over-
ride human doubt and worry. And
now we have June, and summer,
for which spring was only prepar-
ation.
-From The New York Times.
Forty-five years ago Angelo de
Angelis of Avezzano, in Italy, was
in the United States. While there
he mailed a parcel of baby clothes
to his wife in Italy for their son.
It didn't turn up until the other
day, when it came back to Angelis.
Forty-five years too late for the
son, the clothes, however, fit An-
gelis' grandson perfectly.

"Things aren't what they used tea

sounds modern but actually it' is
the oldest known piece of writing
in the world. It is on an ancient
piece of papyrus in the museum of
Constantinople. People talk much
the same today.
When a young person goes
wrong, ask these pertinent ques- •
tions. Did his mother and grand-
mother have the unfeigned faith
-hat Timothy's had? Was he given
a knowledge 'of the holy scriptures
from a child as Timothy was? X&

cause of his fault lies largely with

dren unto the third and fourth!.
generation." Ex. 20;5. The laws of
heredity illustrate this to be true.
The relation of husband and wife
is beautifully illustrated by the
relation of Christ and the church,
God said to Eve after the fait,
"Thy desire shall be to thy hus-
band, and he shall rule over thee."
The arrangement whereby the. hus-
band is not the head of the home is
unnatural. The husband tends to
belittle himself, the wife becomes
overbearing and the family does not
command the respect of the com-
munity. But we must also note
that husbands are to love their
wives as Christ loved the Church
and gave Himself for it. One can-
not conceive of a domineering hus-
band in that pattern. He takes the
heavy end. He loves. He gives.
Children are to obey in the Lord
their parents and honour them. But
God has the right to first place is,
the child's affections. The parents •
in turn are not to provoke their
children to wrath but to bring them
up in the nurture and admonition
of the Lord, -
What a responsibility to be rb
parent. The child can quickly de-
tect hypocrisy. He can likewise dis-
cern between brutal punishment:
and godly chastisement. To give
your child the best opportunity you
must be a Christian.
