DEAR DORIS — An old friend of mine wantse.to leave his estate to MY three boys, but mostly to my oldest one because he held him a bit when he wile .a baby; and wants to know what I think. My other two boys like hi naand are go- ing to feel left out, I tried to suggest if he want- ed to favor the oldest he could make him executor. 1 could in- terfere and say I wanted it left equally, but the other boys may have things left te, them too. Its just that right now I hate to tell them, and my -old, he is jalst grabby, and h s ask- ed me tell them; he isnt hap- py at their being left out. I've kels“t!• . 4e - en thiaking two weeks and beginning to wish he'd SeemeAlnfalr. DEAR SEEMS — Little does the wouldbe benefactor realise what friction he could cause! Since Son No. 1 is unhappy about being so favoured, why not take him on your next visit, and talk about it? What such a friend wants, most of all, is to be appreciat- ed-vvhile he is alive. Some ac- knowledgement of his kindness, the gift of time and friendship from you and the boys now — these will surely bring about the change you want. After all, he did ask for your opinion. DEAR DORIS — My boy friend was -killed in an auto accident and I have been writ- ing to his brother-, since- then. He doesn't go with anyone. Ile teld me right after his brother died he could never go out with me 'since I was engaged to his Northside -Cavan United Church Worship and HOY Communion Northside 11 a.m. Cavan 2:30 p.m.` All onenibers ...are 'urged to at- tend:'this first Communion Ser - 'vice in 1968.

Who is to say the one who was killed wouldn't want just that — a brother who would replace him in taking sere of you? Keep, on corresponding. DEAR DORIS — About that girl who had been sick and wanted to enter a convent: far too many girls think of becom- ing a nttn as a sort of escape from all that. troubles -them. They fail to realize. — and Aloha* jells them, I guess — that the religious- life is also very demanding. I clo• agree that she should be fully recov- ered from her emotional ill- ness, and more mature too, be- fore making any such decision.

THIS WEEK AND NEXT by Ray Argyle Canada's second century epened this week, and with it came prospects this country may indeed be on the verge of the greatness promised by our founding fathers. Greatness can most often be detected in little things. But one of the signeeof greatness in a nation is its ability to toler- ate dissent. It was this quality that helped make the United States Tien and powerfull, by using tile abilities of the "homeless and oppressed," who came to its shores from abroad. Now something of the same thing la happening here. Many young Americans—castigated in -the U.S. and Canada alike as "cowardly" draft dbdgers-- are seeking refuge in Canada. As one of these commented on a TV interview recently 1967 marked his "best Christ- mas" because he felt he had found a land of freedom. Isn't this what the unpopu- lar, and indeed, even hated re- fugees of Europe's political holocausts felt when' they ar- rived in America in the 19th century. . In the tradition of thiscor- umn, this is the week to look back over the past year, and to glance ahead in an attempt to glean something of what fate might have in store for us in the' next twelve months. • • But first, let's check back to a year ago and see how Tenade out on. my 1967 predictions'. I accurately forecast the re. tirement of Mr. Diefenbaker in 1967 and, predicted this would pave the way for Mr. Pearson's quitting in 1468. I predicted an upsurge for the New Democratic Party in provincial politics, especially Oetaeio —and this of course, occurred in last fall's Ontario vote. I made a,safe bei that the Centennial chlebrations would be. a success and that Expo — at that time the subject of much carping criticism -- would become- "the, most suc- ceesful and world -attention getting event ever held in this country." , But I was overly -optimistic in forecasting that prices would stabilize in 1967, or that internationally, conditions would develop favourably for some kind of a settlement in Vietnam. I looked for major achieve- ment in space, and while th,e Soviets succeeded in a soft landing on Vhnus, no one could foresee the fatalities which brought tragedy to both the U.S. and Russian space ventures in the past year. Now, to 1968. Ever the optimist, I'm Wil- ling to predict the economy is ready to cool down. Prices should slow down their up- ward edge and even level off in some fields. Internationally, I'm again optimistic that a settlement may be reached in Vietnam, with better thap ever chances in --1,968 because of the pres- sure President Johnson faces in lgovember's presidential election. If a Vietnam peace accord is not reached, I see a very real possibility of John- son being defeated by New York governor Nelsen Rocke- feller. Canade will v ..hae a new prime minister in -r968, and perhaps, not only' because of Mr. Parson's retire m e n t. Election of a new Liberal leader in April' — either' Paul Helleyer or Paul • Martin — could result in the -Country going to the polls next fail. And the Conservatives under Robert Stanfield will make a very strong bid to oust the Liberal regime. And we 'will get medicare.
