Up, Dry Up"Abider Advises Dear Ann Landers; I would like to pass a word of advice to "Still Hurting" because I 'Walked in her moccasins for too many months. When I learned of my hus. band's unfaithfulness, I, too, nearly went put of my mind. I felt betrayed, alone and hope. lessly inadequate. My'eyes were filled with tears 24 hours.a day. I wept so mach it was begs icing to interfere with my vision, Then a wise, understanding clergyman tittered a few sen. tences that changed my life and snapped me back to reality. He said: "Shape up and dry up. Your -husband has said he is sorry. He can't undo what's been done. You can drop tears in the dishwater,_ on the ironing boari and in the vegetable stew. You can drench your pillow at night. Il Won't change a thing. Yesterday is gone and be thank. ful it is, Forget yesterday and make something better out of tomorrow." I took `his advice and I am - A NEW WOMAN Dear Woman: Bravo for you and a 21 gun -salute to the clergyman who gave you the shove you needed. W tLat you did, others can do, ' Thanks for sharing. * *. * Dear Ann Landers: Four days before our wedding (which was planned for May lst) Clyde decided he -wasn't ready for marriage. He asked me to post. pone everything until he "found himself." I was deeply humiliated but went ahead' and told everyone that Clyde was ill. In Aeg'ast he said he had "found himself' so we set the date forOztober 1. This time Clyde really did get sick - a raging fever that lasted for five days, The doctor never did figure out what caused it. Again we postponed the wed- ding. • Last night we talked about setting a date and again' Clyde is unsure. He's no kid, Ann - he's been out of college for five years. My mother says all men get„ cold feet about mar. riage and would get out of it at the last minute if they could. -What do you say? - WTTHER:E D _ORANGE B.JOSSOMI Dear Blossoms: Clyde's trouble is not! in his feet, it's in his head. He sounds immature, unstable and, in my opinion he's a poor risk. Yo1 need him' like Custer needed more Indians, * . Dear Ann Ladders: Can you help 1a poet suckers who enter contests and never hear what happened to our entries? I have spent so mach money on pro. duets I didn't need (not to men, tion the time) that I am ashamed of myself. Some contest forms say they will send a list of the winners if one is requested. So far I. have yet to receive one. In the 10 years'I have been entering contests a have never won so much as an honorable mention. O:ice I entered a slogan con- test and everyone said my slo, gan was great. I didn't win anything. When the first place' slogan was announced in the ^° Fire -Proof Christrnas To help make sure families don't include the worst intruder of all- FIRE- in their Christmas festivities, the Ontario Safety League offers some timely re. minders. A Christmas tree makes the best kindling you could have in your home, so to prevent it ' from igniting, you' must com., pensate by choosing a freshly. cut tree, ,and standing it in water at all times. Place the tree in the coolest place possible, well away from 1.he radiator, TV Set, radio, stove and fireplaces. Most people put their trees up too early anddismantle them too late. Actually, no tree will last more than a week indoors, without drying out and dropping needles, at which point it is an extreme fire hazard. Keep coloured lights turned on for short periods of time and always turn them off before going out or, +going tobed. Check your lights `before using them to make sure there is no damage to cords or sockets, and when buying new ones, make sure they bear the CSA (Canadian Sfsndards,eissociation) stamp of approval. ' Nonflammable decorations of metal, glass or asbestos are far safer than paper or cotton decorations, and of burse candles 'are a hazard anywhere near• the 'tree or near other combustible decorations. If -fuses_ blow; -due-to-the-tn. creased electrical load, re. distribute the load to other cir- cuits, and never repla.ce a 15 amp fuse with a larger size. This 'over -fusing' habit has led to 'many a fire. Keeping an eye on these possible fire hazards will help to keep fire out of your home this Christmas.. paper I was shocked. It wes so similar to my entry that I will think something wasp fish. Please tell me how these out. fits get away swindling people. It's time the public• wr3,s given the facts. - SMALL Fi"HH Dear Fish: Hold the phone, YoaVe .enade some pretty serious acctsations with no evidence to support your statements. The fact that you've never won a prize doesn't moan the con. tests are fraudulent. If you want to inquire about a specific contest, write to Better Business Bureau and they will check it out thoroughly; 1 HrticuIturaIists ,E Cf /9 S si at Mrs. Albert Worsell, 'of 107 Victoria St., North, was elected p'.resident of Goderich Horticul. tural Society at its annual meet. ing in St: George's Parish Hall, Wednesday, November 24.
