How- ever you may he thinking a little about fall plans and won- dering what the football line-trp Barry Murkar will be like this term. But this is still summer so we'll make the most of it, while we have it. Can You Tap This? We are in receipt of a letter this week, following a paragraph last is- sue on pen -pals. Ruth Gillman of ]kirougham, Ont, says: Thanks for the swell column for teen-agers. I have just finished reading your arti- cle, "Correspond—It's Worth It", 1 have been writing to pen -pals since 1 was eight years old and after nine years, I write to exactly 452 differ- ent people. I write to pen -pals in Ja- pan, China, Cuba, Philipines, Jamai- ca, Newfoundland, Hawaii, Malta and naturally U.S. and Canada. How about snore articles on pen -pals? AI - so for anyone who is interested, 1 would be pleased to give them ad- dresses or send their address to some of my pen -pals. Can anyone top my record of pen -pals? I'd be very in- terested in hearing. --Ruth Gillman, Brougham, Ontario. Thanks a lot for the interesting letter, Ruth and hope to hear from you again, If any of you kids out there want a real pen-pal,—well here you are. News of the C. N. E. Seems like a long time since we pushed our way down the midway at the good old "Ex", but it's here again and they sure have plenty of inter- esting things for teen-agers. In the automotive building you will find a section for teen-agers only. They have a record bar, fashion show and there will be teen-age broadcasts conducted from there daily. The midway will be bigger and better than ever, and every moment you have can `be taken up with seeing something different and something interesting. Boys and girls who have an overdose of freckles can get in the freckle -faced kids competition and maybe win a little green stuff. If interested in any of the compe- titions you should get your entries in early.

He Tells 'Ern, A clipping of an editorial` appear- ing in the Moorpark Enterprise of Ventura County, California, came in from a reader the other day. The editorial, headed "What Need of It All?" concerns the present teen- age centres that many municipalities are building, or drawing up plans for, at the present time The writer says, and we quote—Twenty-five or thirty years ago teen-age centres and places of recreation for youth did not exist and the youth of that day grew up as wholesome and well - ROOMS BEAUTIFULLY FURNISHED $1.550 up HOTEL METROPOLE NIAGARA CALLS OPP.

He says that build- ing such places is only admitting failure to teach and control Children, and that the handling of the child is an irkesome job—so let someone else do it. Brother you have Some- thing there. (I'll probably hear about this one. Plans are in the making for a centre here and maybe we could lave chosen a better time for it ---or could we?) It Could Only Happen to Us Two Meeks ago we counted 12 mistakes in our column, made up of typographical errors and misplaced lines Either the weather was too hot or the compositor and the proof- reader were cooling off with—you know what. CHRONICLES OF GINGER FAR By Gwendoline P. Clarke • This is the year I've been waiting for—yes, this is the year—with ber- ries- in the hush hanging red and ripe whichever way one looks, We haven't had such good picking for several a ears as we are hawing right now. And believe me,• i am making the most of it. Everything else is being neglected, or at most reduced to minimum requirements. Any time now I am expecting to hear sounds of exasperation frc.,l my menfolk because C am afraid their supply of mended socks must be just about exhausted. Probably they will say—"Darn those socks' —in which case I too, may say "Darn those socks" only not quite with the same meaning. Of course we are enjoying our usual run of summer guests—and I mean enjoy—but they, too, arc being drawn into my scheming toils like helpless flies in a spider's web —my web being the raspberry patch to which they are enticed and given a pail and a pair of overalls. I might add they are rising to the occasion magnificently. * * Last week my sister-in-law and I made our first visit to the bush. It was more of an inspection trig than anything else as I wasn't at all sure that the berries were ready. So we wanderer"around in the bush quite a bit, picking here and there, but with no intention of staying very long. At ten -to -six 1 thought we had better head for home—and that's where the fun began. Do you think I could find my Way out .of that bush! To make matters wore the sky was overcast so that we couldn't even tell where the sun should be. As looking didn't get us anywhere we started lir,:ening. We could hear a tractor going not too far away and then we heard a car, so we headed hoeat,i ly to- wards where we thought the car had passed. Eventually tie est out but quite a piece from where our car was parked, so that meant a nice little walk for me to get it. :k * * Ot course when I related our ex- periences at supper time the men scoffed at the idea of our being lost; ridiculed the suggestion that we really had trouble in finding our 'aay out of the bush—and is any case thought I was completeiy crazy. During our wandering I asked my sister-in-law if she were scared and what she would do if we were really lost. "Nothing at all," she answered, "I would just sit here until some- one came to find us. And I cer- tainly was not scared." is * * Since that trip there have been Young Actress IS IS VERTICAL 1 Tangle 2 Operatic solo 3 Send in payment 4 Peruse 5 Et cetera 1824 hours (ab.) 14 Duration 6 2000 pounds 16 Skin disease 7 Individuals 17 Mercury (ab) 8 Perfect 18,Pointed a0 Ntocrat 30 New York • weapon City (ab.) 20 Rob 15 Send forth 22 Point ' 17 Encounter 23 Relative (ab.)
