WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER i 1595
October 29 -November 4
ARIES - March 21/April 20
Something you would never expect to
happen takes you by 'surprise early in
the week, setting the stage for the
week's remaining activities. You'll
realize that the only thing you can
count on is change. Selfish actions
will only backfire this weekend.
Sensitivity is necessary at home.
TAURUS - April 21/May 21
When faced with a difficult situation
this week, you may have to refer to
the phrase, "if you can't beat 'em, join
'em." Remember, giving in doesn't
necessarily mean giving up. Even the
mighty Taurus has to put pride to the
side once in a while. Learn from your
mistakes.
GEMINI - May 22/June 21
Weekend plans may be cancelled at
the last minute. Think creatively, and
you may find a more enjoyable alter-
native plan. It's time to bury the
hatchet with a Scorpio. Let your emo-
tional side take over in a romantic
relationship. Be spontaneous when it
comes to love.
CANCER - June 22/July 22
Get out of workaholic mode and
enjoy yourself for a change. Re-
member, you only go around once, so
you might as well have some fun!
Use your intuition when it comes to
risky financial investments. The sen-
sitive Cancer's sixth sense is not to be
underestimated.
LEO - July 23/August 23
Business and pleasure do not mix this
week. Try to separate the two as
much as possible. And watch what
you say. Nosy coworkers may not
have your best interests in mind.
Looking for new romance? This
could be the week to find lasting love.
Dress your best on Friday.
VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22
A good time to make changes at
home or work. A positive, can -do atti-
tude is all you need to succeed. A
Libra associate offers good advice to
a troubling situation. A friend's good
news will give you a reason to cele-
brate. A different friend, however,
may need your shoulder to cry on.
LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23
Your sound judgment and logical
approach may be the key to success
this week. There could be a positive
change in your financial situation, but
you'll have to be patient. Remember,
good things come to those who wait.
An unusual amount of social invita-
tions are on the way. Take advantage
of free time.
SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22
Trying to manipulate others to get
your way will only backfire. A better
plan is to use honesty as your policy.
A pessimistic attitude could get you
into a great deal of trouble. Con-
template past mistakes and put things
into perspective. Credit those who
help you this week.
SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec21
Your yen for excitement and novelty
will be satisfied this week - maybe
even to an extreme. Be sure you
know what you're getting into or you
could regret it. Think of the conse-
quence before you take the action.
Patch up differences in a troubled
friendship before it's too late.
CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan20
Blaming others for your problems is
no way to get ahead. Take responsi-
bility for yourself, and everything
will fall into place. Blame others and
you'll never grow. Step back to get a
perspective on where you are and
where you want to be. The future
maybe brighter than you think.
AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18
What seems like a good opportunity
may end up to be a big disappoint-
ment. Best not to put all your eggs in
one basket. A troubled romance will
only get worse unless something'
changes. Talk things out before you
get to the point of no return. Librans
and Geminis play a role.
PISCES - Feb 19/March 20
An unexpected happening may turn
your routine upside-down, but it will
be a welcomed change. Perhaps you
take life a little too seriously at times.
Don't refuse the help of a willing
associate on a pet project. A fresh
approach will only be of benefit. Be •
open to new ideas.
•
YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK
The next 12 months: •
A great year where many positive
changes are possible. If you're
career -oriented, this will be an espe-
cially suc.cessful time. Asserting
yourself early in the year will help
you along in a major way. Don't be
afraid to ask for that raise or for more
responsibility. Remember, others
may not be aware of your goals and
aspirations. The romance department
has a lot to offer, too, especially if
you're involved with a Taurus or
Leo. This relationship could grow to
strong commitment, (perhaps mar-
riage or children). Those involved
with Geminis or Librans may .have a
trickier time with love.

RR 4, Wingham.

Dear Mr. Spowart:
My parents and I always end up fighting about
my curfew. A few Saturday nights ago, I really
messed up because I arrived home two hours past
my curfew. My parents pulled a real "hairy" on me.
They screamed and said all kinds of stupid stuff
like: "You're a 15 year old girl, didn't you know
what time it was? We were worried sick because
something terrible could have happened to you, and
we wouldn't have known what to do ....". In three
months. I'll be 16. How do I get my parents to start
treating me more like an adult, and extending my
curfew?
S.P.
Dear S.P.:
What did you expect when you arrived home two
hours late, a big hug?
Your parents are fully aware of the increase in vi-
olence and danger in society. Little wonder, that for
two hours they sat anxiously waiting for you, not
knowing where you were, with whom, or if you
were in some kind of serious trouble. I can under-
stand how their feelings of fear eventually made
them very frustrated (and angry) because you left
them feeling totally helpless.
I can also understand why you witnessed an an-
gry outburst when you returned home, but you ap-
parently heard only stupid stuff. Maybe you should
have listened to key phrases like, "worried sick:",
and "such horrible things could have happened to
you".
I agree teens should be given increasing amounts
of respect and responsibility. However, they must
be fully aware that their chronological age doesn't
automatically spell out maturity. That has to be
worked at. In your case, if you want to be treated
"more like an adult", you'll have to stop acting
"less" like a child.
It doesn't appear to me that you've put much ef-
fort into developing two very important types of
mature behaviour. You do not follow through on
personal commitments .(eg. curfew), and you cer-
tainly do not consider how your irresponsible behavi-
our effects your parents' feelings (like fear and frustra-
tion).
May I suggest you show your parents that you are
responsible by keeping your present curfew time.
You'll also be telling them that you consider their feel-
ings and over a period of time they will begin to real-
ize that their daughter is maturing. And what about ex-
tended curfew? When important issues are discussed
by mature people, a mature solution can usually be
found.
Dear Mr. Spowart:
We recently had a family discussion about drug
abuse. We would appreciate your view as to what ma-
jor problems are associated with drug abuse because
we couldn't agree on an answer to this question. Thank
you.
The 'K' family.
Dear 'K' family:
Any substance which affects the body (and mind)
can be abused and can cause two major problems;
those being of a medical and social nature.
I) Medical Problems: They arise from the mi .use
(abuse) of prescribed or non- prescription drugs, caus-
ing harm to the physical or mental well-being of the
user.
2) Social Problems: The misuse of drugs can put a per-
son in conflict with society. This can occur as viola-
tions of existing laws or a clash between users and
non-users relating to behavioural norms, values, and
moral standards.
Dear Readers:
