TASTES Summertime is salad time i cup milk and within the spectrum of sa- lads there is one to please every taste. The ladies usually go for dainty colorful moulds, while most men enjoy a hearty combination of crisp greens, vegetables, meat and cheese. In order to take care of every- one around the table, here is a clever suggestion from our test kitchens for "his" and "her" salads. The real he-man's salad bowl should be filled with Chunks of chicken, cooked ham. swiss cheese, slices of tomato, onion and cucumber. Crown it with His Own Salad Dressing, with its spirited seasonings;dry mustard, paprika, celery seed, leaf tarragon and then toss it with croutons flavored with garlic powder. An avocado ring mould ser- ves as the perfect salad for "het and her friends. An envelope of Sour Cream Sauce Mix blends in smoothly with lime gelatine and pureed avocados to give a distinctive flavor and airy tex- ture. For color contrast, fill the centre of this pale green mould with pink watermelon balls and surround it with an assortment of fresh fruits. The salad dressing for tn'lady's sa- lad combines the flavors of crushed cardamom seed, lemon peel and honey. Make ordinary packaged butterflake rolls extra• special by topping each roll be- fore baking with a mixture of pineapple marmalade, orange peel and sesame seeds.

Ann Landers Dear Ann Landers: My prob- lem is not of the greatest urgency but perhaps others in your reading audience share my plight and you can be of assistance to us all. I ;have always read quite a lot, Due to this, and to the fact of an excellent education which stressed Intelligence and intellectual initiative, I ,have a very educated cast to my speaking. Unfortunately, the general receptionto my person- ality is adverse. People are always accusing me of putting on airs. Nothing could be further from the truth. X am very natural but it doesn't seem that way to most indi- viduals who are not accustomed to hearing English used so cor- rectly. To the average person T sound like an intellectual snob. Is there an aswer for, gram- matically speaking overeduca- tion? A 20 -YEAR-OLD ARiS- TOfP'HANES. Dear Aristophanes: I examin- ed your letter carefully and could find no evidence of "overeducation." People do not react favorably to your personality because you try to sound like an egghead and it comes out scrambled. Hold Anniversary Party A unique surprise celebra- tion was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Kilpat- rick, R. R. 1, Dublin, last Fri- day, when Mrs. Kilpatrick's parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Thomson of Wingham, were invited to that home. When they arrived they found a crowd of relatives and friends gathered to honor them on the occasion of their 25th wedding anniversary. The act- ual date is June 29, which was also the date of Mr. and Mrs. Kilpatrick's second anniversary. One room was set up as a chapel with a centre aisle. The family had secured Mrs. Thom - son's wedding dress and veil, in which she was outfitted and presented with a bouquet of red roses. A mock wedding was then held, the bride of 25 years ago being given away by her bro- ther, Lance Morrison, as he did on her wedding day. Mr. and Mrs.Malcolm Stewart of Pres- ton, reston, their best man and brides- maid also took pact in the mock ceremony and Elmo Pritchard of Lucknow acted as minister. At the close of the comic event the couple was chained together by their necks. Turkey dinner was served to 23 guests in the dining room, which was decorated with white bells and streamers. The head table was centred with a three - tiered wedding cake flanked by candles. Mr. and Mrs. Thomson were MR. AND MRS, A. G. THOMSON presented with a number of lovely gifts. Mrs. Thomson is the former June Morrison of Lucknow, daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs. Isaac Morrison. Mr. Thom- son, also a native of Luckhow, is the son of Mrs, CharlesThom- son and the late Mr.Thomson. They were married in South Kinloss Presbyterian Church. They have four children, Mrs, Douglas (Sharon) Kilpat- rick; Mrs, Albert (Dale) Hart- ley of Edmonton; Mrs. Jerald (Jill) Hayden of Ethel and Doug- las at home. They have ohe grandchild. Dear Ann Landers: My dear, husband passed away five months ago. He was 68 years old. Typical of his generous nature, he was more concerned for ane than for himself, when he learned his days were num- bered. He made me promise I would ask his widowed sister, Kate, to dive with me, His last words were, "I will rest in peace only if I know you are not alone." Well, Ann, I knew Kate took a little sherry before supper, but I didn't know she also drank gin in the morning. I was shocked to discover she drinks all day, which explains why she falls down and injures herself so often, Kate is very heavy and has a hard time getting around—even when she's sober. It's easier for me to bring her meals on a tray than to get her up and dressedt Ever since she moved in I've been on 24-hour duty and I'm exhausted. I realize Kate is a sick woman who needs care but she is ruining my health. Would I be dishonoring my husband's memory if I asked her to leave ?—D.G.D. Dear D.G.D.: No, on the con- trary, had your husband known the truth he would not have made such a request. Surely it was not his wish that you spend your remaining years playing nursemaid to an alco- holic. Ask Kate's physician to sug- gest a hospital --preferably an A.A. type, if he can persuade her. o--o--o Dear Ann Landers: Our 11 - year -old son wanted to go to the rodeo for the second night in a row. I agreed after he wore me down with his nag- ging. The real problem started when he asked me to drive him five miles to the store to buy a new cowboy outfit. I refused, He got angry and said if 1 wouldn't drive him he's ask his dad. He went straight to the telephone, called his dad at business and said, "Mom won't drive me to the store to get a new cowboy outfit. Will you?" My husband said, "Yes." Ann, my ;husband does this to me all the time. I need your help.—TAMPA MOM. Dear Mom: Have a talk with your husband and learn what is bugging him. He is exercising his hostilities toward you by saying yes to the boy after you've said no. Your son senses the lack of unity and is em- ploying the divide and conquer routine, When a man uses his child as a club to hit his wife over the head everyone suffers. o--o--o Unsure of yourself on dates? What's right? What's wrong? Should you? Shouldn't you? Send for Ann Lander's booklet, "Dating Dos and Don'ts," en- closing with your request 35c in coin and a Iong, self-addres- sed, stamped envelope. McIntosh U.C.W.
