The puppets are also perfect for beginning knitters, according to Nancy Schaeffer. Schaeffer is a devoted knitter and au- thor of "Purls of Wisdom," a nearly free booklet from the Monsanto Co. In her booklet, Schaeffer explains all the knitting ba- sics from selecting needles to reading instructions.

Unfortunately I quoted the price as $2.50 which is incorrect, the retail price is $4.95. It is still a terrific bargain at this price, as it contains all the basic steps for knitting, crochet, t tatting, rug -hooking as well as other needle arts such as hairpin lace, embroidery and macrame. It is very well illustrated, plus it has simple yet attractive articles to make with your new found skills. I apologize for any in- convenience this may have caused you, but once again, Jackie Zeman is strict with herself By COLETTE- BOUCHEZ- Daytime drama "Gener- al Hospital" has a lot going for it. It's fast -paced, excit- ing and filled with glorious romance that never fails to entertain. And one of the nicest things about "GH" is super beauty JACKIE ZEMAN, who recently returned to her role as Bobbie Spencer. looking more vivacious and beautiful than ever. Jackie began her,pr.,ofes- sional career as a dancer and fell into the world of If you have an attic, garage, or closet full of things you don't use—and probably never will — the classified can turn those things into instant cash. The classifieds are full of merchandise and items that you can save a lot of money on. So, next time you have a need for anything, check the classifieds first! Whether buying or selling, ,you can do all your shopping conveniently at home! –supersoaps- quite --by --asci, dent. "One of my best quali- ties," says this sassy red- head, "is my self-discipline. I learned it early on, since I began my dance training at the age of 5, and dancing is total discipline. As a re- sult of that training, I've always been able to tell myself that if I want my body to look a certain way or if I want to wear a cer- tain dress size. it's going to take. some effort. I exercise at least one hour every day and for that hour I really work my body. "I'm a person who can't diet. What works for me is to allow myself to eat whatever I want, but just have very small portions. This controls the weight. "Sometimes, however," she confesses, "I do `binge' and eat too much. If that's the case, then for the next few days I cut down the size of my meals as well as the number of meals I eat. "I believe you should get in the habit of weighing yourself every day, and catch your extra pounds when there are only one or two of them. Then you can do something about them right away and it 'doesn't become a problem." Jackie also suggests that to maintain your weight or begin a weight -loss pro; gram, the most effective thing you can do in not eat after 6 or 7 in the evening. It is at this time that we tend to nibble, taking in more calories than we re- alize. It also is the time when our bodies are least active. so calories aren't • burned as quickly or easily. One of Jackie's most out- standing beauty features is her long, thick red hair, which she keeps in terrific condition with simple, commonsense beauty logic. "I think one of the keys to good hair is to give it a good brushing every night. It. doesn't have to be 100 strokes. 1 find that 30 do just fine. It stimulates the scalp," says Jackie, "as well as distributes the oil TO PLACE A CLASSIFIED AD IN CROSSROADS, PHONE The Listowel Bonner 291-1660 The Mount Forest C nfederote 323-1580 Tho Winghom Advance -Times 357-2320 JACKIE ZEMAN One of my best qualities is my self-discipline' _through_the hair, both..o1 which are important. "I also use a deep condi- tioning treatment three times a week," she says. "I have found that it's import- ant to match my condition- er with my shampoo, ac- cording to brand names and to switch sets of prod- ucts about once a week. I think if you use one prod- uct all the time, your hair becomes immune and the treatment is less effective. "Matching shampoos and conditioners is very im- portant because they are chemically . compatible to work together and that's important for maximum hair care." . To keep her skin glowing . and healthy Jackie gets professional facials when- ever she can. "I like to go to the experts whenever possible," she says, "main- ly because they can tell by the condition of my skin just what I'm lacking in terms of food or_ vitamins, which is very helpful." When she is unable to get to a salon, Jackie steams' her face at home, for a thorough cleansing. This can be accomplished by simply boiling a pot of water, (mineral water if 'possible) tossing in a few . herbs when the water is at a rolling boil (or try a few herbal tea bags) and then removing the pot from the stove. Place your face di- rectly over the pot and cover you head with a towel, forming a tent. Three to four minutes should give you excellent results. SUPER BEAUTY HINT With spring and summer just around the corner, get ready to paint your fashion palette with soft, sensuous pastels. However, where we traditionally think of these colors being baby pink and blue, this year de- signers like ALBERT NIPON and JOHN AN- THONY are treating us to luscious shades like pale banana, soft peach and a gentle faded rose. Another snazzy new combination from the workrooms of both GEOF- FREY BEENE and PERRY ELLIS is the clas- sic look of stripes, done in beige and pale gray. And more popular than ever will be the traditional black -and -white combina- tions, especially in sportswear. This year the great fab- ric push is for natural fi- bers with a special empha- sis on linen, silk broadcloth and cool, crisp cotton. Since these fabrics "breathe" they are cooler to wear in warm climates. Howeiter, you should be aware that some fantastic new advances have been made in polyester, the man-made fabric, that now 1 the retail price is $4.95 and it can be found at your local yarn shop or department store. Several letters from readers this week asking for specific patterns, which you, too, may be interested in. Mrs. E. Farkas of Lewvan, Sask., was looking for a cardigan pattern for child- ren 2 to 12 years, she wanted a pattern with an attached hood. Leaflet No. 6924 is an at- tractive outfit for girls, sizes 6 to 12 years, which has the instructions for a skirt, pat- terned or plain, both giving a pleated effect, together with an attractive pullover, rag- lan style with cables at the front panel. Also included are directions for a raglan cardigan either buttoned or with a zipper. All garments are knitted with a knitted worsted weight of yarn or sayelle, which will make very pleasant pastime dur- . ing the spring months. A hooded Duffle coat for both boys and girls is on Leaflet No. 0981. This is a slightly heavier coat being knitted with Patons Super - wash Wool or Sayelle. It's very attractive being knitted in two colors, and has"frog" fastening with toggle but- tons. Sizes given on the leaf- let are for 6, 8, 10 years. The other pattern I recom- mended was No. 6916 which has all sorts of V-neck styles in raglan pullovers and cardigans for sizes 2, 4, 6 years, but no hood. I am rather fond of this pattern and have knitted it several times, for my grandson when he was small, and as gifts. It's a well fitting pattern, and you can use a pattern stitch or knit in plain 1iig-stitch__._ _ ._ Mrs. Farkas also asked about "pocket book slip- pers" and by this I think she means, travelling slippers, the kind that fold flat. In- structions for these, along with many other styles of slippers, including "mop" slippers and footlets, are on Leaflet No. 6813. 0 0 0 This week's pattern is a crochet trolley cloth. I have seen this design worked and then placed under glass of a coffee table. I think also it would make charming placemats if fewer motifs were worked. To bring it to placemat size you would need three or four motifs wide, and four or five rows deep, depending on your re- quirements. To order this week's pat- tern No. 7860, or any other eaflet mentioned, send 75 cents for each, plus a stamped self addressed re - urn envelope. If you do not have an envelope, please en- close an extra 50 cents to cover the cost of handling nd print your name and ad- dress. Send to Louisa Rush, 'Craft Talk", 486 Montford Drive, Dollard des Ormeaux, P.Q., H9G 1M6. Please be ure to state pattern num- bers correctly when ordering nd to enclose your stamped eturn envelope for faster ervice. 1 t a s a r s allows it to breathe as well. Unless you are a strict fashion purist, your best bet, economically as well as in terms of wearability, may be to look for natural fibers blended with polyes- ter. They resist wrinkling and are easier to treat if they become stained or soiled. Hemlines are almost a case of "anything goes" this year, from just below the knee, to mid-calf, to below the calf, and a re- turn to the mini in junior - sized fashions. The most important thing you need to know about this year's' lengths is that proportion is your only requirement for a fashionable look. For example, if your blouse is very elaborate, with a broad collar, lots of ruffles or a wide, puffy sleeve, you should balance the look with a graceful mid-calf skirt, especially if you intend to complete the lookby emphasizing the waist with one of the new wide cinch belts. If on the other hand. you choose a more severe, straight cut of clothes, like the new chemise styles. your best hemline would probably be just below the knee. The defined waistline is really your guide; the more pro- nounced it is, the longer the length of your skirt should be. - Crossroads—April 27, 1983—Page 11 Your Handwriting Tells Take courage By DOROTHY ST. JOHN JACKSON Certified Master Graphoanalyst Dear Dorothy: I am a discouraged human being; discouraged with what our country holds for all of us. There are so many predic- tions of disaster and of gloom. TV, radio and the press ring with doom. — D.A. Dear D.A.: I don't, for a moment, minimize the ser- iousness of our present problems, both worldwide and at home. There is surg- ing unrest, to be sure, but that doesn't mean that we let go the ropes and drop. ourselves into the pit of de- struction. Your problem? You're a person of fear. It stalks you wherever you go. Your very small writing keeps you "shelled in." Your tight and retraced writing says your feelings are jammed, making all kinds of tries to hide unpleasant memories. But, out of sight is not out of mind, and they live on to subconsciously torment you. The ties of your mind are bound too tight. Thye make you want to give up, lest your mental strings snap. This traps you with frustration, seen in is crossed_ to. .the . right -- Fear overturns us. It produces insecurity and it saps our ability to face the facts, seen in loops on left side of o's and a's. No matter how we may feel about the state of our country, we cannot cower in fear , before our world problems. That's the sure road to defeat. So, courage is the word, rriy friend. Our country was built upon it and only by it can we survive. It's a word that's synony- mous with gallantry, fear- lessness and plenty of pluck. Try to relax and ex- pand your thinking, and let all those nice comfortable feelings move in.
