"Dear Anne Hirst: Can you pos-
sibly explain why all my life land
I'm not far from 40) I have never
been able to hold
a man:
"I've tried to
be all that is ex-
pected of wom-
anoocl — sweet,
kind, understand-
ing, charming &
intelligent. I ant
considered at-
tractive, and have
no trouble in attracting equally nice
Inelt.
"But—
"After an eligible male pursues
me, sparing awe no end of affec-
tion and vague promises, the friend-
ship gradually goes haywire. 1
sense that he becomes bored.
Aware of this, I grow self-con-
scious, unhappy, and unable to con-
verse on impersonal subjects like
world affairs, politics, sports and
.other sujects that interest men,
NO MAN OF HER' OWN
"1 can only think of things I
will never have which the average
woman gets—husband, home, chil-
dren.
"I am a professional young wo-
man, and certainly should be more
interesting than a simple house-
wife who only can talk ford prices,
children, and what new clothes or
jewels she can coax out of her hus-
band.
"Here I wait, hoping the right
one will come along before it is
too late.
"Men only seem to Iook for
what they can get, someone to
practice lovemaking upon so they'll
know how to proceed when their
own true love arrives.
"Do you think there is a destiny
that controls our lives? That no
matter how desperately one tries
to change situations. it is to no
avail?
"That perhaps my particular des-
tiy is never to have what all wo-
men want and usually get—their
man, and a home of their own?

PASSING THE TIME
An attractive girl and a plain,
middle-aged spinster were waiting
for a bus.
"Have a cigarette?" asked the
girl, opening her case.
"What! Smoke in public?" ex-
claimed the woman, shocked to her
depths. "Why, I'd sooner kiss the
first man who cause down the
street!"
"So would I," retorted the girl.
"But have a cigarette while you're
waiting!"
Not Snowdrifts, But "Mold -Drifts" — This model "town", built on a
large culture plate by GE engineers at Nelo Park, was left for a
few days in a warm, humid atmosphere. Mold began to grow—
the same kind Mama sometimes finds on stale bread. But a small
germicidal lamp was left shining on the model. No mold grew
where the lamp's ultraviolet light shone, but in the shadows
cast by the buildings and trees, green and white mold grew
'apidly and thickly. The effect was the sante as in late winter,
when snowdrifts in the shadows remain unaffected by the sun.
So the "snowdrifts" in this picture are really "mold -drifts."

We haven't raised any chickens
at all since we acquired Honey,
our little cocker spaniel. Several
times I have wondered what would
happen had we tried since spaniels
are essentially bird dogs. Honey
proves it—she simply ignores squir-
rels but she chases sparrows, pig-
eons and starlings as if to the
manner born. So what would she
have done with chicken? Partner
says Honey has recently developed
other habits so he has nicknamed
her "his great protector." Recently
we have had two little heifers in
the backyard and whenever Part-
ner comes up from the barn they
cone running towards him. Honey,
apparently, thinks they are out to
attack Partner—so Honey puts the
calves to rout—or tries to. .
\Well, we still haven't got chick-
ens but we did move twenty old
hens from the barn pen over to the'
brooder house. Since then I have
been taking Honey with nie when
I feed the hens—right into the pen
itself. She sits just inside the door,
after being told to "stay there," and
she watches those hens with a
mournful, curious eye. She is only
too glad to corse out when I do
. I suppose she thinks "what's
the, good of going in there if I'm
not allowed to make the feathers
fly?" However, I think it is pretty
good training. If, and when, we do
have chickens again, Honey will
have learned by that time that
certain kinds of bird life are not
meant for her to chase or 'play
around with,
We moved the old hens to make
room for some New Hampshire
pullets which we bought from a
neighbour. They are nice birds—so
tame and quiet you would think
each one had been raised as a pet,
Funny the difference there is in
the different breeds of birds. Speak-
ing from out own experience we
find Plymouth Barred Rocks arc
good, general purpose birds, al-
though they feather slowly and go
broody very quickly. .
White Leghorns aro nervous bid-
dies and fly all over the pen if
they are startled in any way. Even
scattering the scratch grain will
often scare theist, They lay well
but are not much good as table
birds,
Light Sussex feather quickly, get
to be a good weight at maturity
— and are the most persistent
broody liens I ever knew. We had
theist once—and once was enough.
N.H.X.B.R. hybrids are quiet,
good layers and not too heavy or
too broody.
New 1-1 ampshires—their peculi-
arities we have yet to find out as
this is the first time we have tried
them,
\\•ell, I suppose the weather for
the holiday week -end did not .please
anyone but the farmer—and we
certainly needed rain. Personally _
I thought anything was better than
that spell of unseasonable heat. 85
in October—that surely is one for
the record! Incidentally on the
hottest day our supply of winter
coal arrived. Bob was home for
the weekend but daughter and
cousin Betty went to Buffalo.
Sunday night a friend and I went
to the 60th Anniversary service of
a village church where this friend
of mine was brought up. The
church was packed to the doors,
morning and night, despite the fact
-of it being a terrible day—cold,
windy and wet.
Somehow the spirit of by -gone
days seemed to be there — days
when the little village church was
the centre of community life. Many
who had once belonged to the con-
gregation but had since moved
away were back for Anniversary
Sunday. Friends who had not seen
each other in years met and talked
together once again. The special
preacher was excellent. Speaking of
the way in which different people
meet adversity he quoted words to
this effect—"The greatest loss is
wasted sorrow. It is terrible to have
paid so great a price and bought
nothing." He was referring to
those who have lost someone very
dear to them and who spend the
rest of their lives nursing their
grief , , "wasted sorrow." \Ve
have all come in contact with just
such persons, haven't we? Fortun-
ately there are others, who through
their own sorrow, have developed
a greater sympathy for their feI-
lowmen—arid greater opporl unity
for service.
For Lengthy Use
Garden markers are now being
made in Vinylite plastic and can be
reused often. Said to hold their
shape in hot or. wet weather, mark-
ers are held by a 14 -inch noncor-
rosive steel support, while the label
is tilted for easy reading. Resistant
to vegetable oils, kerosene, chemi-
cals, etc., labels can also be attached
to seed or bulb trays, or wooden
garden stakes.

Memory Selection: Be strong,
fear not, behold your God will come
—and save you. Isaiah 35:4.
Jacob's family numbered 70
when they settled in Egypt. Four
hundred years later there were
about 600,000 on foot, that were
men, besides children. They had
grown to a mighty host. This was
in spite of adversity. A new king
who had not known Joseph feared
this growing nation. He set task-
masters over the Israelites to afflict
them. "Ilut the more they afflicted!
theist, the more they multiplied and
grew." That is a significant state-
ment. They were God's chpseta
people and they prospered in ad-
versity. It is useless to fight against
God, The Psalmist was right when
he said, "Surely the wrath of man
shall praise Thee." (76:10).
!.'hen came the time when the
people of Israel began to. sigh
unto God because of their bond-
age. "And God heard their groan-
ing, and God remembered His
covenant with Abraham, with
Isaac, and with Jacob," The dis-
ciplines of adversity had moulded
them into a nation, Some remem-
bered the heritage promised to
their forefathers.
There is a limit to the length
of time that a people can endure
oppression, The desire for freedom
will finally assert itself. When the
oppressed begin to pray, then de-
liverance will surely come. Already
there are rumblings of a beginning
of a struggle for such freedom be-
hind the iron curtain, If people
pray, God will help the oppressed
today just as He has always done.
