Don't misunderstand me — I don't doubt his love, and we have wonderful times together. But marriage should mean more than that. "I've known that he likes to drink too much now and then. I've also seen how close he is to his men friends, even break- ing our dates to play cards with them, They are all single, and I'm wondering whether, as his wife, I'd spend more evenings waiting for him to Mime home. That isn't my idea of being married, "I want a home with him, not without him. I love children, and I want mine to have a father they grow up with. He and I have had few evenings to discuss things that matter — planning our house, talking about his business affairs, and the intimate give-and-take of two peopde who expect to spend the rest of time under one roof. Most evenings we've been at parties or shows, always on the ' go (his choice, not mine), and without that communion of spirit on which a sound marriage should be built. We don't even go to church together. . , . In other words, I see how little we New "Needle Art" "! come, V ee Gvt "Paint" a colorful picture with needle and wool — fascinating hobby!

Is there anything I can do to arouse his love for a real home life? Do you think I can find it with him? FRIGHTENED" DANGER SIGNS • It is not necessary that a • man and his girl have every- * thing in common, but to marry • one whose pattern of living • is so opposed to your own is * to start a battle of tempera- ' ments that could well lead to • disaster. Your picture of mar- ' riage is sharing a home with * your husband, raising a tam- * fly and making that home the • centre of your life and theirs. • There must be love, of course, * but love alone cannot guar- * antee a good life for either of * you. If your fiance expects to * continue finding his pleasure • mingling with his men friends, e you two would be in conflict • from the start. * What you want is content- * ment within your own walls, a * spiritual companionship, a • sense of well-being based on • just being together. • Can it be that you two dif- * fer so widely that you haven't • anythinig in common but a physical love? Gather up * your courage and find out " whether he intends to be a • part-time husband whose home * is a place to eat and sleep, or . if he is willing to give up play- * ing at life and follow the de- * sign of mature couples who • find their reward in a rich . family relationship for them- • selves and their children. • If two people have not some • mutual interests and do not en- * joy spending their leisure to- • gether, marriage soon becomes ▪ an impossible farce. It is for • your fiance to decide which * type of home you will have. SHE MISSES HIM "Dear Anne Hirst: I'm afraid I've lost my boy friend. Some- how he got the idea I wanted to go steady; he didn't, so we part- ed, I` sec him often, though. He doesn't avoid me, but I miss him so! "I'd be thankful if you would tell me how' I can find out if he still likes me, and how to get him back. I know he doesn't go out much with any other girl. "There are two other boys that want to date me. Shall I accept their offer?

Cla ike I am very happy .to say there was quite a lot of threshing done in this district duking the latter part of Last week, It is not finished by a long way but at )east there was a little pro- gress, Here's hoping the wea- ther stays fine so that all far- mers can salvage what's left of their sluing crop. It was also good weather for the wind-up of the C.N.E. From all accounts It was s very good show but I cannot speak from experience as this was one time we did not go—thci e semed so many other things this year to take up our attention—business affairs, vis- itors coming and going, peaches, pickles and fixing fences. Even though we are no longer en- gaged 'r farming on a full time basis there is still plenty to do. Perhaps too, we see and do more in other ways. And it may be we are learning more about our own locality. As to that how w.:11 do any of us know the district in which we live? I was wondering this the other day when I was looking for peaches --and there wasn't a peach in town. Knowing this a friend said to me—"Why don't you get peaches from the S , , , farm —they have lovely fruit!" That was news to me although the S . . farm is only about six or seven miles from here and they have been growing orch- ard fruits for quite a number of years, So there you are, good fruit right in our own neighbourhood and I didn't know it. But I do know quite a lot of folk are still driving all the way to the Niagara fruit belt just to get a few bas- kets of peaches, That is only one example but enough to prove that it might be worth our while to make a few in- quiries and explore the pos- sibilities of our own district be- fore travelling farther afield. Of course it didn't take me long to spread the good peach news &round in our own im- mediate family. As a result Bob and Joy came up and we went after more peaches. But it wasn't a straight trip there and back —not with Bob driving! We climbed the "mountain" by one road and came down by an- other. If it could be called a road, To be it was more like a rocky winding trail through the bush, 0f course the view was magnificent --the view al- ways is from practically in- accessible places. At the foot of the hilts we found many isol- ated ranch -type houses built among the shelter of the trees. Very nice, especially in sunt- mer—if that is what a person likes, But in winter , . . I took one look and had visions of snow -filled roads with no ac- cess to civilization except by car—and how would a car get througli on seldom -travelled roads? Supposing provisions ran low—or worse someone was suddenly taken i11? People seem to go to such extremes in choosing a place to live. Surely there is a happy medium be- tween living in a congested sub- division and away out in some neck of the woods? However, it is a case of everyone to his taste, I suppose, Come to think of it I visited one family last week who had found the happy medium. It was a farm house, well hidden from the road and yet only the distance of the farm lane stood between the occupants and a very busy two-lane highway, well serviced by buses running north and south. It was a W.I, meeting that took me to this very nice coun- try home and it was one of the best meetings I ever attended. Good because the members were so alert to the important part of W.I. work and also to affairs pertaining to country women as a whole, This was evident by the intelligent discussion of re- solutions sent in from the Dis- trict area pending their pre- sentation at the forthcoming Convention. The pros and cons at every resolution were con- sidered in detail, and the dis- cussion which arose was most enlightening. Another thing I liked . , , evidently a few min- utes at every meeting is given over to studying the Institute Handbook. That is a wonderful idea, Too many members have only a hazy idea of what lies between the covers of that most important little book—until they are called on to take ofllce. Then it is more than likely the incoming president or secretary gets in a panic and studies the book from beginning to end, But however much she studies, she cannot, in one gulp, gain the same amount of knowledge from the book that she would have . done had it been taken in small doses over a period of years, Maybe the W.I. Hand- book should carry an additional slogan besides "For Home and Country", Perhaps is should carry the advise—"This book to be read, marked and. inwardly digested—by easy stager.►' By the way, how are all the television fans liking the new Channel 6?

Laughter's not only a fine tonic, but it's also a life -length- ener according to an expert who has conducted exhaustive re- search into the value of laughter. So serious is a Paris profegsor about this laughter business that he has been giving lessons on how to laugh. Flrst.he gets. his "pupils" — mainly tired business men and women — to relax. Then he plays a laughing record on a gramophone and soon every; - ' body is laughing. If people would only exchange more jokes and have more fun in all they do, misunderstandings would vanish from the world, thinks Mr. George Lewis, chief of The National Laughter Foun- dation, What is laughter? Take a deep breath and read this ancient technical ' description: "It's a spasmodic movement of various muscles al the body beginning with those which half close the eyes and those which draw back- wards and upwards the sides of the mouth and then open it to expose the teeth, .next affecting those of respiration so as to pro- duce short, rapidly succeeding expirations accompanid by sound, ..." So now you know! A small outcast trib of Ceylon, known as the Veddas, never laugh. When asked why, they reply: "What is there to laugh at?" A sum of $5,000 was once of- fered to anybody who could make a certain woman laugh. Hundreds of people tried to vainly cracking jokes. She list- ened with a serious face to lead. ing New York comedians wise- cracking • — and never even smiled, Nobody won the prize. The reason? Because she was incap- able of laughter. Her facial muscles had been paralyzed ever since she was a girl. Q. 1 have a figured lamp wish to place in front of a pic- ture window. Should it face to- ward the living room or the outside? A.

One of the funniest' court incidents occurred many years ago. A motor cyclist had been summonsed because his motor- cycle combination was too noisy . and disturbed the peace. So he wheeled the combination the last few hundred yards to the court, then asked the magis- trate it he had heard him ar- rive, The magistrate said he had not and dismissed the charge; the man left, but a minute later there came an infernal racket outside, The magistrate yelled: "Bring that man back!" But nobody moved from the court. The noise of the starting cycle was so deafening that nobody could catch the magistrate's words! A few days later the mag- istrate had occasion to shout again. A grocer appeared be- fore him on black market charges, and asked 'if he might whisper to the bench on a very personal matter. The magistrate agreed, bent forward, and the grocer whis- pered in his ear, Then the magistrate's face crimsoned, and he yelled: "No! I don't want five pounds worth of black market butter. Pay a hundred pounds for, trying to bribe the court!" Magistrates and judges are always willing to help those who appear before them, A South African judge told a Negro charged with stealing that he could be tried by the judge or, if he wished, by a jury of his peers, "Peers?" queried the Negro. "Peers," the judge explained, "are your equals. Men from your own walk of life." "You try me, judge," the Negro blurted nut, "I don't want to be tried by no thieves!" A judge in Chicago asked a slow-witted hoodlum last year why he had stolen half < a million in bonds, The hoodlum thought a moment, then, "Why, because I was hungry, judge," he smiled, A Texas mother refused at Houston to pay her doctor's bill after her son had had measles, 'Asked to explain, she told the court: "My son had measles first and passed it to all the kid in the district. The doctor made a fortune out fo it. Since my boy started it, I think the doe owes me a few thousand dollars by way of a commission" FOR THE BIRDS—That's what many homemakers in Ham Common, England, seem to think of this statue. ,Called "Home Making," it represents a woman examining a bird's nest and is the work of modernist Keith Godwin, On the grounds of a new apartment project, it's being viewed skeptically by Mrs. June Rossdale and son, James, 3, WORLD'S .OLDEST LIVING MAN?—Javier Pereira is reputedly the world's oldest man—at the tender age of 167.

Just By Way Of Breaking The Ice A Complete Story by JOHN JOHNS She was definitely worth a whistle. Anel' Dick was in mid - whistle when his legs gave up the unequal struggle against gravity and he sat on the ice- drome rink so hard that glasses bounced in the bar fifty feet away. Not that that worried him un- duly. In the three weeks since he had begun to learn to skate he had accepted the fact that life's downs are more frequent than its ups. What really upset him, I could see, was her laugh as she swept by on the arm of a burly ice -hockey player, I leaned over the rinkside bar- rier and pulled him to his feet, " "Friend," I said, "keep your mind on your work.' , He staled after .her with an expression whcih in anyone else would indicate acute indigestion, but in his case is simply wistful- ness. "A lovely girl like that with a moron like that," he groaned. "There's no justice." "Is that charitable?" I said. "He's probably kind to children and makes handsome contribu- tions to the ice -hockey players' benevolent league. And anyway — some fo my best friends ate morons." He ignored me. Clutching the barrier, he hobbled off the ice and sat staring hungrily as she circled the rink, "I'm going to learn to skate" he said, "if it kills me," . "I like you better alive," I said. "Come and have a pint to reduce your blood pressure. There are as good fish off the ice as on it." But he,wouldn't move. There he sat, watching her for another hour, and there I sat with him, shivering. Finally, to my relief, the ice was cleared as the last session ended, and Dick went to change, As I waited for him by the door, she strolled past on the . arm of her hockey player, and I had to admit that she wa what certain citizens might term a lush thrush. DIck emerged from the chang- ing room, and we walked out into the street, "How about that pint?" I asked, He grunted. His mind was on other things. "Lovely night," I said. He grunted again, and nearly walked into a lamp post. "The moon's bright green," 1 said, He didn't even bother to grunt. "Her name's Sadie," I said. He stopped dead. "How d'you know?" "I heard that hockey player talking to her while you were changing,", He frowned. "Oaf!" "Look," I said, "let's not get personal" "Him, I mean," said Dick, "That muscle - bound hockey player," He crushed an inof- fensive matchbox with his heel, Then; "How long does it take to become an expert skater?" "Years." He thought for a moment, "But if one spent all one's spare time, every day, practising, , ." "Don't be a mutt," I said. "It you're thinking what I think you're thinking, then' it's a waste of time, By the time you can do a figure four, even, she'll be a veteran memberof the House- wives' League." "Oh, shut up," he snarled, and mumbling something about hav- ing to get home, he ran for a,bus, It was the wrong one, but he was too dazed to notice. I had my pint alone; reflecting mournfully that I wasn't going to see much of him for quite a while. Me, I'm a non -skater. I don't mind sitting by the rink now and again and watching, but enough's enough, Not for Dick, though. Other men might scale mountains or slay dragons for their beloved, but he—since the nearest moun- tain was 200 miles away and there was a chronic dragon sortage in London—was deter- mined to skate into her heart, once he was able to conquer a tendency to skate into more solid objects, A couple of weeks later I vis- ited the rink again. Fond though I was of Dick, it was obvious that skates and he . hadn't much in common, "How's the affair?" I asked, as he staggered off the rink and collapsed into the seat beside me, thankfully unlacing his boots. "Affair, my aching foot," he said bitterly. "I can't get near her when she's on the ice, and when she's off it there's always a brace of those barrel-chested hockey players round her." "Why don't you try an in- structor?" "I have. •He resigned after one session. He said he wasn't in- sured." Dick sighed miserably, I decided there was nothing for it; somehow he would have to meet Sadie—forcibly, if need be. couldn't stand by and watch a friend pine away. "Look," I said, "of you were over there in the centre of the rink, face to face with her, could you do your stuff?" He cocked an eyebrow, "If you mean could I make a date— I could have a darned good try." "Well, then, Suppose you stand with your back to the barrier and aim yourself at Sadie. Sup- pose I give you a shove. You glide gracefully towards her, bump against her in passing, and stop to apologize. A few well- chosen words; and the rest fol- lows as night follows day. More or less." He thought for a moment. "How do I get back from the centre of the rink? Ask her to push me like a wheelbarrow?" "You can worry about that once you get there. And you won't get there under your own steam for a long, long time." He hesitated. "Well, , , :' Just then Sadie glided past, smiling at a tall youth in a red sweater beside her. Dick glared, "O,K. What have I got to lose?" "That's the stuff," I said. "All we have to do is wait till she's in the centre of the rink, and then—hey presto!" We waited, Dick standing on the ice, and I with my hands on his shoulders. The crucial mo- ment came when Sadie was alone in the centre of the fink, admir- ingly watching the antics of the red-sweatered youth. "Contact!" I said. "Contact!" I took careful aim and pushed, Dick lurched, recovered his balance, and catapulted away across the ice. My arm had been perfect. No bee could have made a •straighter line than the one he made for Sadie. Gentle bumps and well-chosen words were obviously out of the ques- tion. I just had time to shout 'fore" before he struck her squarely amidships. Frantically clutching at each other, they skidded across the rink and crashed into the barrier. Sadie was well and truly in Dick's arms. That happy state of affairs lasted just ten seconds—the time it took her to recover from the shock, flex her right arm, and give Dick a slap in the face that echoed round the icedrome. Five minutes later he walked —or rather I helped him—out of the rink for the last time. Oddly enough, he seemed hap- pier than he had been for weeks. "I," he said, "have been an idiot, I can't think how on earth I fell for that bad-tempered wench," He smiled broadly, "Come on, let's have a pint to celebrate my return to dry land," I smiled, too,- For a moment, back there on the rink, I had been afraid I hadn't pushed hard enough,.

Few brides, in fact., have ever been married in such an ancient and historic place. Around her as she knelt beside her groom were rugged walls which have survived 1,100 years of Lon- don's history. It's usually the girl who chooses where a couple shall wed and some girls have chosen romantic and strange: places. It was on the advice of a fortune teller that one youthful superstitious bride chose the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean as the scene fo her wedding. The fortune teller had told her that she would be specially happy if she had an unusual wedding in an unusual place. It did not take her long to de- cide that a large diving bell on the sea-bed was just the place. Five hundred people lined the railings of the steel pier at Atlantic City, New Jersey, and munched peanuts, popcorn and hot dogs while they listened to the ceremony over a loud- speaker, "The ceremony took about five minutes and was conducted by a minister in morning clothes," wrote a reporter, "twenty feet below the ocean surface. It included one of the longest wedding kisses on re- cord and then up we came back on to the pier again." Another bride who thought the bottom of the sea a fine plhe for her wedding suggest- ed to her groom that they should don diving suits and be married on the bed of Puget Sound, Seattle. Unfortunately, PARISIAN LOVE the officiating parson had to be raised from the depths for a repair to his diving suit before he could complete the cere- mony! For "sentimental reason s" which they did not disclose, a couple of twenty -one -year-olds were wed in the mouth of a dead whale, at Long Beach, California. Such a ceremony would be legally impossible in Englnd—unless the carcass had been manoeuvred, with the consent of the minister, into an approved Once of marriage. Last year a very sentimental bride who had met her beau beside a hotel swimming pool told him she would love to be married in just the same setting, So Mary Ann Blecher, twenty, -four, of Chicago, stood one sunny day on the diving board of a Miami hotel pool and took the matrimonial plunge while a judge tied the knot. The bridegroom wore a loose shirt over his swimming trunks. Ane: the bride wore a veil over her swimsuit. Adventurous Miss Marjorie Kinger and Mr, Donald Bab- cock were made man and wife while their aircraft was flying at 1,200 feet. Immediately after the ceremony they left — pre- sumably for the honeymoon— one after the other by para- chute and made perfect land- ings. Their best man's "going away" was even more exciting. He stepped out through the open door half a minute after them and was so excited that he almost forgot to pull the rip- cord and fell 1,000 feet before his parachute opened. He near- ly finished his descent by plunging into a concrete mixer in n builder's yard which he missed by two yards! Freal: weddings have taken place on mountain peaks, in jail, in submarines and even on scenic railways, IT'S IN THE AIR ['AMOUR IN PAREE: "It is in in the eyes of the men ..:' By Rosette Hargrove NEA Staff Correspondent PARIS — (NEA) — France and the French way of life have always provided a profitable tar- get for foreign writers. And 'the best audience for such writers seems to be the French, no mat- ter how far from the truth the author may stray, Currently cashing in on this Gallic self-interest is Hungar- ian -born George Mikes, now a British subject with a book cal- Ied "Petits Choux," or Little Cabbages, sub -titled "Visiting the French." Here's how he sees the French as compared to the Anglo-Saxon: The Frenchman draws a defi- nite line between work and play. He either works, or does not work at all. He seldom dawdles, doesn't take a break for a ci- garette or coffee, but on the stroke of noon nothing could delay his sacrosanct lunch hour. To be taken for a Frenchman you must make up your mind to be decadent. The decadence of France has been one of the most hackneyed topics of con- versation for generations all over the world. In France there are employees who will accept graft. But they consider it a present with no strings attached. On the other hand, many civil servants con- sider your offer of a tip an in- sult; you never know where you stand with them. The French have three pas- sions—thrift, food and love. Saving to the Frenchman is as !inspiring as a bullfight to the Spaniard, the "sauna" bath to the Finn, TV to the Americans or standing in line to the British, By 60 the Frenchman has us- ually saved a small fortune. He kills himself with work for the time when he won't have to Work any more and denies him- self all his life in order to have a first-class .funeral, For centuries Frenchmen have the smiles of the women end been considered decadent be- cause love was their main pre- occupation. Now, says Mikes, l'amour has given way to food. The question is whether it's more moral to be obsessed by a succulent ragout than to dream of Lollabrigida's figure. Never- theless, the French seem to pre- fer to die well than eat badly, Drinking in France is not a passion; it's merely a habit. Jean Dupont—the French Joe Doakes-does not drink to ex- cess, but he drinks all day long. Mikes admits that to say the French prefer eating to making love is perhaps a little exag- gerated. There's a g.eat deal of tal' about love in France—with a difference. In London, a wronged hus- band is the hero of a tragedy and often gets damages. In Paris he's simply a cuckold, but he often kills his unfaithful wife; it's an old French :ustom, Mike does not say how he found out, but he reports the gossip that it's easier to be in- vited into a Frenchwoman's bedroom than into her dining room is another exaggeration. The average Frenchwoman, he says gallantly, is neither more nor less virtuous than the average American or English woman. L'amour, he says with rever- ence, is in the air in France. It is in the smiles of the women and in the eyes of the men. Parisiennes are no prettier than other women but somehow they manage to fool you, for the first 30 minutes, anyway, into thinking they are the most fascinating creatures. They do not always keep their promises. This, however, doesn't seem to bother Mike. For in these times, he con- cludes, "when it is considered 'good form' to despair of the French, may I say that per- sonally I like them?" STRANGE HARVEST — Ronnie Munn looks over his stable broom, which turns green overnight with grain sprouting like a lawn in spring. Reason for the strange crop is that farm hands wet the broom and sweep the barn floors, thereby picking up spilled grains which sprout in the damp broom: TABLE TALKS dam Andoews The growing popularity . of sour cream prompts the re- sourceful housewife to discover new ways to use it. Soups, gra- vies, spreads, and numerous other foods are given a fillip by the addition of sour cream to the recipe, and its substitution for whipped cream adds a bland taste to an otherwise familiar dish, One soup which is a summer favorite cold and a winter favor- ite hot in many families is mock Vichysoisse, In which thick, sour cream is substituted for whipped cream. The following quantity will serve 'four generous portions, Mock Vichysoisse No. 1 Wash and cut in small pieces 5 stalks of celery 1 medium-sized potato 1 large onion Cook in one pint of salted water until tender. A pressure cooker does the work in 5 min- utes. Press through a sieve, or whiz in a blender for half a minute, with two tablespoons of parsley, Add seasonings to suit the taste—pepper, a dash of mono- sodium glutamate, a few grains of red pepper, a dash of nutmeg. Then add half a pint of sour cream and blend well. If the weather is hot, the mock Vichysoisse should be thorough- ly chilled before serving, and accompanied with crisp salt crackers. However, if the day is cool, the soup is more appetizing when heated and served with hot toast fingers. Mock Vichysoisse is sufficient- ly nourishing to form the main dish for lunch and when bal- anced with a zesty fruit salad and sweet rolls, or chocolate eclairs, it makes an appetizing noonday meal, Mock Vichysoisse No. 2 When a more substantial meal is desired the addition of one can 'of cream of chicken soup and one can of milk (or two chicken bouillon cubes dissolved in one and one-half cups water) to the foregoing recipe provides a flavorsome treat. For Cole Slaw Sour cream is a quick help in making dressing for cole slaw. To one-fourth cup of mayon- naise add one-fourth cup of sour cream, and thin to the desired consistency with milk added gradually, As tastes vary about the pro- per dressing for cole slaw, the family's preference can deter- mine whether the seasoning should he on the sweet side, with a dash of sugar added to the mixture, or half a teaspoon- ful of vinegar. With Baked Potatoes In one very popular Belgian restaurant, sour cream is served over hot baked potatoes instead of butter, to the apparent satis- faction of the customers who call for it, • • • This salad is a great favorite in the hunting and fishing lodges along the Pacific Coast — a real man's dish! Sweet Potato Salad 3 cups cooked mashed sweet potatoes 1/2 cup finely ctiopped celery 1/4 cup chopped onion 2 tablespoons chopped green pepper 2 chopped pimientos 2 hard -cooked eggs, diced 4 strips bacon fried crisp and diced 2 tablespoons bacon grease 34 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon chill sauce 2 tablespoons chopped sweet pickle 1 teaspoon salt • Combine all ingredients; mix well. Serve with game or pork. • • • Here Is the recipe for a may- onnaise -type dressing I'm sure you'll like. Mayonnalse-Type Dressing 1 cup sugar 2 eggs Butter size of English walnut / cup vinegar 1 'teaspoon salt 14 teaspoon pepper Sour or sweet cream to thin Combine all ingredients except cream and cook in top of double boiler until thick (if cooked over direct heat, stir constantly as it doesn't take long to thicken). Cool. When ready to serve, thin with cream. • • • For "home -baked" beans—and there's nothing better on a frosty day—this recipe is one you'll find decidedly worth while. Baked Beans Begin the day before the beans are to be eaten. Soak 1 pound small white beans in 3 quarts water for 2 hours. Add 1 tea- snoon salt and boil for 21 hours. Moisture will he almost gone. Cover and let stand on top of stove overnight (beans absorb remaining moisture during this period), Next day prepare the following mixture and stir gent- ly into beans: 1,4 cup yellow onions, chopped :VI cup dark molasses 1/ cup brown sugar 1,4 can (3-4 ounces) tomato paste 1 teaspoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 10-12 ounces salt pork cut Into 1 -Inch squares (save some for decorating beans) - 1 cup boiling water Combine all 'ingredients, add - incl boiling water last. Bake from noon to 0 o'clock in a covered 4 -quart greased casserole at 250° F. Remove cover for last hour of conking (or, if you like, cook in indi- vidual casseroles uncovered for last hour). Modern Etiquette . . • Q. What is the proper proce- dure f r late arrivals at church servic"s? A. Enter the church very qui- etly. If a hymn is being sung, proceed to your seat, 1f you enter during a prayer, wait in the ves- tibule or at rear of church. It is unlikely that you ever would be tardy enough to enter during the sermon, but should this hap- pen, slin quietly into a rear pow Q, is it all right for a man to use only his Initials when signing social correspondence? A. No; he should sign his full name. Q. While I was confined in a hospital recently, my clergyman visited me almost every day, is there any way I can show him my appreciation? A. Your sincerely expressed thanks should be enough. But, if you wish, you can give him some small gift, which can be some- thing you know he needs or something for the church. Persian Rugs Encircle Globe While the Suez Canal contro- versy threatens to delay AmerI- can-bound oil, rubber, tea, and tin, one traditional import from the Middle East appears certain of a calm passage. This is the Persian rug, the jewel of the weaver's art. From the ancient towns of Kashan, Tabriz, Shiraz, and Ker- man come the famous Weaves, each named after the town where it is created. Most of the rugs are dispatched by truck caravan from Iran across the\ desert to Beirut, From this port they go by ship across the Medi- terranean and thence to the high seas. The trucks follow the route of centuries-old camel caravans, passing in their journey the Ti- gris and Euphrates Valleys, where once flourished one of the world's earliest civilizations. Destination of the Persian rug cargo is the showroom floors in New York, the center for whole- salers in the United States. To these display rooms come retail merchants from the entire na- tion, as well as many European countries. Here they examine the Oriental rugs shining under the light of rows of low -hung ceiling lamps, writes Vartanig G. Vartan, special correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor. The musty smell of wool in- vades the showroom where hun- dreds of rugs — rolled up and trussed with hemp — are stacked along the walls. The smaller rugs are laid out in flat, chest - high piles. And in the corner of the room is the constant snip - snip of scissors wielded by re- pairmen so expert that they can cut and shorten a rug without leaving a tell-tale trace of their handiwork, Buyers from Europe are ap- pearing in ever-growing num- bers in New York's wholesale district today. This is a sign of Europe's economic recovery since the end of World War II. "The European buyers pay the prices without blinking an eye," one wholesaler commented, "They comb the market for an- tique and semi -antique rugs." The European merchants seek out the Persian rugs whose col- ors have been softened and mel- lowed by decades of use. This type of rug, incidentally, is the one most favored by retailers for use in their own homes. The present-day pattern of rug buying offers a paradox, Some fine old Aubusson rugs, for ex- ample ,are being purchased here for resale in France, the country where they were woven, Other Oriental rugs are bought for use in the lobbies of Italian hotels and in thousands of homes in Germany, Belgium, and Switzer- land. The Iranians often regard their rugs (a room -size rug contains more than 1,000,000 hand -tied knots) as a hedge against in- flation, just as Americans buy diamonds and stocks as an in- flation safeguard. In Iran, buy- ers constantly seek out the homes of native weavers to purchase rugs. Rugs used in Iran are highly prized, because they ac- quire a sheen v'hich comes from the wear al smooth slippers, In recent years, the industri- alization of Iran has wooed many workers away from their Noise, But a rug expert expl.ine4. that "many thousands of natives in Iran will continue the work they know best — the weaving of rugs." The Oriental rug business con- stantly reflects changing world conditions, In recent years, for example, Chinese Imports have disappeared completely. The reason:, Communist domniation of China, Before World War II, American -financed rug firms owned large "fact:ries" in China for the weaving of these thick - piled rugs, Now that the Chinese rugs are gone, weavers in India have started to make Chinese -type rugs, Consider this crisscross of national influences — French - design Chinese rugs currently woven in India. After the Russians took over part of the Caucasian region, the quality of many Bokhara rugs deteriorated, reflecting cruder workmanship and inferior ma- terials. The best Persian weavers, on the other hand, utilize the same designs and secret wool dyes em- ployed by their forebears cen- turies ago. Some of the most valuable Orientals are small silk rugs, the finest of which are worth thou- sands of dollars, It's •not un- usual for a connoisseur to store a superb silk rug in a safe, along with his stocks and bonds, And in many an American museum, antique rugs • are displayed on the floor or hung on the wall.

When the shell bursts in popping, the inside of this corn is just as white as any other kind, but the • colored specks from the certified pure food can be seen as a • definite eupeptic factor, and the gro- ceryman said it was moving well. I began to reflect on popcorn, a subject of long standing, and 1 am forced to admit great strides have been mad". Popcorn, in my life, was originally something you plant- ed in the field farthest from the garden, because it would cross, Corn was always, crossing. In those days it was prudent and even necessary to keep your own seed, because seedsmen were not so plentiful and no- where near so reliable as now. So you didn't run any risk of having popcorn on the sweet corn cobs, or even vice versa, and if a neighbor plowed up a strip nigh the fence, it was well to find out what he plan- ned to plant. We had a little field of about two acres away down in the woods - a spot of rock -free loam surrounded by boulders - and about every third year it would grow us a patch of pop- corn without pollen becoming a public issue. We grew a little white popcorn which didn't ma- ture too early, and some sea-, sons we'd scarcely get our seed back. This was true, in those days, of yellow corn, too - Grandfather said one year in ten is all you could expect of corn. Since then the seedsmen have hybridized and selected, and the story is different now. But there was always enough for at least a winter, and if we ran short we could always seed some more next year, Some years we'd grow so much we could sell some, and still pack away enough for four or five years' home popping, writes John Gould in The Chirstian Science Monitor, All you did, to sell some, was pack the ears in a bag and take them to the store, where the storekeeper gave you credit on your bill, Today, a local store won't buy anything much from "RATS" - Several of the "rats" - pieces of hair padding which backed up hairdos in the '90s - must have been used to fashion this extravagant coiffure, called "Paradise", It was featured at the International Congress of Hairdressers, held this year in Vienna, Austria.

Besides, popcorn would have to be packaged, tinned or bottled, whereas the old grocer simply sold it loose, but on the cob, I remember one who had a huge globe -like bottle with a plate across the top for a cover, and he exhibited his popcorn in it; but usually a plain wooden box was good enough. You bought popcorn expecting to shell it off. When the cobs of popcorn were twisted one way in the mechanism a great corrugated wheel made a fine noise as it rubbed off the kernels, The cobs and the corn would all come out in the same box, but you could pick the cobs out all right. Any- body who had one of these could shell popcorn with R. Otherwise you took two cobs in your hands and rubbed them together, shielding the action with your palms so the kernels wouldn't fly all over the kitch- en, Two cobs were generally more than enough for an even- ing's popping. At times we used to shell both yellow and pop- cot'lh with the bayonet from Grampie's Civil War musket, We'd stretch it across a box, sit with a leg holding each end down, and saw the cobs up and down on the edge. Shelling popcorn preceded popping it each time. This was because the ears were traced. Instead of husking the ears at harvest time, we'd merely peel the husks back, and then braid them together. This made a strand of popcorn, and we'd tie two strands together and loop them over a wire between attic rafters, The mice couldn't get to the corn, Corn popped better If it was cold, and in the win- ter we'd go up attic and twist; off two ears and conte down for popping. Our original popper, I've heard tell, was a spider with a cover on it. It was a little hard to manage because of the legs, but It worked. Then came a sheet -iron popper with a long handle, which was still in use when I came along, The crane was pulled ahead in the fire- place, and a pothook hung on. Then the handle of the popper was put throught the pothook, and you could agitate the pop- per very handily. Later the same popper was found to be equally useful on top of a stove. When Grandmother would hit a high mood - and say, "Now if you sannups will behave yourselves, after supper I'll make cornballs," we were in a frenzy of expectation. We'd shell the corn, pop the big wooden bowl full, and be sure to pick out all the old maids, (This meaning of old maid is not in the dictionary, for some reason. Grandmother used to tell of some poor wretch who broke her plate on an old maid in a cornball, which was a joke, because cornballs and store teeth are incompatible. It's like a dog with a dab of taffy,) Then the rich effluvia of old-fashion- ed molasses would run riot in the house, and while we stirred the popcorn with long -handled spoons Grandma would pour the syrup most slowly over the bowl, so every kernel would get sticky.

Simple, n'est-ce pas? Tha&M, FRONT kausswell What follows would normally belong In our cookery columns, I suppose. But those of us who recall, fondly and regretfully, the days when farming wasn't quite so streamlined and busi- nesslike - and especially those fortunate enough to have had Amish neighbors - will under- stand why it appears here. Ac- cording to Kipling, the immortal Homer swiped whatever he throught desirable; and why should I set myself up as better than Homer? • * In spite of the seasons' vagar- ies, this year, growing things have followed their usual pat- tern, and now the mushrooms Are inviting us to _sally forth erith basket and sharp knife to where they are rearing their sil- very heads in Amos's wooded lot. Emmaline is always ready for a foray,,since she is inordinately fond of "mushyroons." But on this particular morning her girls are tending a baby boy whose young mother is helping her husband tend their market stall In town, and we linger to watch his antics. Anna, who left school forever this spring, having reached 16, the age at which Amish girls are considered to be sufficiently ed- ucated and 14 -year-old Hilda are delighted with their charge, If a baby can be spoiled in one day, he surely will be, for they lavish attention on him. Anna set him to gurgling and cooing by singing a Dutch lullaby, . She is helping Anna to turn out a batch of cottage cheese with which Emmaline will make cheesecake for Sunday's dinner. Here in horse -and -buggy land, the people are stickler's for a season for everything and ev- erything in its season. They never, for instance, serve soup in hot weather. But on any crisp morning bustling Dutch house- wives greet you with: "Real good soup weather it is today," 1 have even heard the men say It. Cheesecake, however, is en- joyed the year round. Emma - line has standiing orders for hers each week at market, and there" would surely be a hue and cry from her customers if it should be decreed that cheesecake is a seasonal dish, too. The secret of her cake's deli- cate smoothness is in the soft curd cheese. Known as "baker's cheese." it is the same kind noted chefs use in their own ele- gant cheesecakes, and so simple to make that one really enjoys putting the cream crocks to work. A kitchen thermometer is needed for pasteurizing a gal- lon of skim milk in a big double boiler at 145°F. for 30 minutes. After that the milk should be cooled to room temperature (70°1?.) and kept there for the souring process, which is accom- plished by the addition of one- fourth of n rennet tablet dissolv- ed in a tablespoon of cold water, and one-fourth cup of cultured buttermilk, the kind sold in any dairy of grocery store. . . . . To snake the cake batter, Einmaline mixes 2 cups of her homemade cheese with 1A cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon lemon ex- tract, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, then beats until smooth. Four egg yolks are added and beaten until well blended. Then she mixes in 3 tablespoons flour and the % cup of light cream and beats again. _ In a large bowl, she beats until frothy, 4 egg whites, 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1/4 cup sugar, and continues beating until soft peaks form, Then she pours the cheese batter over the egg whites and folds it in gent- ly: pours all into the crumb - lined pan; sprinkles remaining crumbs over the top; then bakes the cake in a 300°F. oven for I full hour. 4 . . In an electric or gas oven, one would now turn the heat off and let the cake stand for another hour in the oven. But for Emmaline it means remov- ing all unburned fuel' from her firebox. She does it cheerfully, though, and warns, "Don't peek, even, for the whole bake -wait period." When the cake in all its state- ly splendor is removed from the oven, it is allowed to cool for another five minutes before the rim of the pan is removed. Then one needs .only to slice it to re- veal its wonderfully smooth, velvety texture. Some like a sour cream top- ping for cheesecake, others hold out for pineapple, But I have heard Amos advise his custom- ers at market, "Try it with a good tart jam once," and that is what I like best, Does Emmaline mind having her cherished recipes revealed? Does the sun mind sharing its warmth? One is as probable as the other. She would love to know that housewives all over the country were baking cheese- cake "over her recipe," And be- ing a hospitable soul, she would point out that this recipe serves 12 nicely. She prepares her fresh mush- rooms the epicurean way, fried to a golden brown in lots of butter. But Mushrooms Natur'elle are a treat, too. Wiped with a damp cloth and cut into pieces, they are simply shaken over the fire for a few minutes in a heat- ed skillet which has been spr'ink- WUL ,m_LISSON BY REV R BARCLAY WARREN. B.A.• B.D. Ten Laws For Life (Temperance Lesson) Exodus 20:1-17 Memory Selection: Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Exodus 20:3. It is well if we as children memorized the ten command- ments. They were given by God through his servant Moses, near- ly 3,500 years ago. But they still form a satisfactory pattern for living, It is true that most of the Christian Church do not keep the seventh day but rather the first day of the week, There is no express command for the change but Jesus arose on the first day and appeared to his disciples, A week later he again appeared. The Holy Spirit was given at Pentecost on this day. It came to be known as the Lord's Day. On this day the disciples came together to break bread in remembrance of Ilim. (Acts 20: 7.) But someone will ask. "What have the ten commandments to do with temperance? Let's put it this way. How does the drink- ing of alcohol affect our obser- vance of the commandments? Almost daily the news throws light on the connection. Drunk- enness often prepares the way for immorality. It doesn't take much alcohol to loosen one's proper restraint of the sex in- stinct. For some, drunkenness leads to a false sense of confi- dence, paving the way for reck- lessness and death on the high- way. Drunkenness has never helped anyone, It has destroyed led with salt. With the addition of 1/4 cup of water, they are simmered uncovered until ten- der, Then covered and with the heat turned off they draw their own juice. A little garlic juice, chopped chives, or onion brings out the true mushroom flavor. By Mabel Slack Shelton in The Christian Science Monitor. the happiness of many homes, The late Dr. Guthrie, of Scot- land, once said, "Whiskey is good in its place. There is nothing in this world like whiskey for pre- serving a man when he is dead, but it is one of the worst things in the world for preserving Q man when -he is living. If you want to keep a dead man, put him in whiskey; if you want to kill a living man, put whiskey in him," Deeds Picket tells of a young woman in college who said, "Al- cohol always seems to transport me to a rosier world." Her rooni- mate shot back, "Yes, but what about the return trip?" Health officials are alarmed at the thousands who are be- coming alcoholics. Well, you won't become an alcoholic if you don't take the first drink. If you have taken the first one, Jesus Christ can help you to never take another one. YOUNG AT HEART During a trial some years ago, the judge asked a witness: "Do you have any brothers or sis- ters?" • "No, my only sister died 150 years ago." The judge looked incredulous. "That's not possible." "On the contrary," said the witness. "At the age of 20 my father married and had a daugh- ter. She died in infancy. When my father was 72 he became a widower. He married again. Four years later I was born, and I am now 94." Drive With Care Upsidedown to Prevent Peeking AV1 0 .
