I drank and ran around Then I gave it all up. and ever since I've been trying to make up for it. I love my wife dearly. I've told her if she will stay with me I would try to for- give her. I can't believe she really loxes him after such short a quaimance. "Will you advise ale:' SAD HUSBAND" Any woman would be fool- ish indeed to marry a man she * has known • only three months o —particularly when she must break up her home to do it. e I hope your wife will stop see- " ing the man immediately, and devote herself to being a loyal * wife and a good mother. ' A man 'and woman can fall " in love at first sight. But it * takes months and months be- * fore they can really know each * other, or be certain that they will be happy for the rest of * their lives. *Has either of you consider- * ed your children?

Most film celebrities have un?hoose nunlbere, but visitors to Hollywood, not know- ing this, look in the phone book —and some seventy-five people constantly get calls which are not intended for then, Bob Hope is listed in the book as a doctor. But that doesn't pre- vent phone calls telling him how bad or how good he was in such - and -such a picture. A request usually follows for Jane Russell's number. Dr. Hope replies that he is a medical man and not a come- dian. The Wiliam Holden in the book happens to be a Los Angeles po- liceman. The William Holden of film fame has never met the man with the police badge,. "But if I do," he says. "I hope it will be .pu"sly a social meeting." A contractor name John Payne has met his actor namesake. For several years contractor Payne has been forwarding fan mail to actor Payne, and by way of ap- preciation the star invited the contractor to be his guest on a. film set. The "nonentity" took one look at the `celebrity," who was wearing heavy pirate make- up on this sunny clay, and com- mented; " I'll stick to building houses." Listed in the directory are the names of Ann Sheridan, Bette Davis, Doris Day, Esther Willi- ams, Marie Wilson, George San- ders, James Mason, and many more. None of these people work befure the cameras, and all of them get calls meant for the stars. One actress in Hollywood who ventured to have her name in the book was a character act- ress named Giselle Werbeserk Pini. For years no one ever called her except her friends or busi- ness associates, Then one day a practical joker phoned and said; "Is this Giselle Werbeserk PifT1?" "Yes," replied the actress. "This is Joe Glutz," said the joker, "Didn't we meet at a party in New York??" "I've never been in New York," replied the act- ress coldly. "Beg pardon," said the man, "it must have been ANOTHER Giselle Werbeserk Piffl " But a man named Chips is still. getting calls after all these years from practical jokers. "Is that Mr. Chips?" they ask. He says that he is, "Good-bye, Mr. Chips," they reply, and ring off. HIS TRIBUTE He was a Hollywood executive, and a very unpopular man. In fact, they used to say that he would keep an actor or a writer on the jobs two weeks longer than necessary in order to be able to fire him on Christmas Eve. When he died, the few peo- ple who showed up at the funeral tried their best to say something nice about the deceased. They could think of nothing. Back at the studio, after the funeral, they wound up in ,the barber's shop, where all important. Hollywood post-mortems are held. They were still trying to say some- thing nice. Finally the head barber came to their assistance. "You know," he was not a hard man to shave." e i tri 8fr Good news for those who long for relief from rheumatic pain, but feel hopeless Thousands get speedy relief from Alen* matte and arthritic auffering by using '3' -R -C e, Don't let dull, wearisome aches, and sharp pains eyo,TrTmplets handicap R -c'' today. hilly 6Se. 41,33 at druggists, 1444 Meets Cold Shoulder—The snowman seems impervious to the warm greeting being given him by this young woman at Fuessing, Germany, Although the ground is snow covered and it's cold enough to sustain a snowman, she's suffering no goose pimples.

P CeLdeek¢ "What in the world,{. doing?"e you That was Partner's ques- tion when he came into the kit- chen a little while ago. The reason? I had our big kitchen table literally covered with lit- tle piles of newsprint. By my side was a big carton filled with paper — the overflow was strewn all around my chair. And at the end of the table there were, by actual count, seventy-one brown paper envelopes, In case` you haven't already guessed, this was the completion of my clipping orgy. I had been clipping steadi- ly for the last two days and now the clippings were ready to go into the envelopes. Of course I soon found there were more headings than envelopes, so mare envelopes had to be htuited. It has been quite a job but I and well satisfied now it is done, And, because I had everything so well sorted, I was able to give away all kinds of good reading mater- ial. With the stuff that was un- suitable to pass along I had one glorious bonfire. My sorting took me through a • big pile of farm papers and maga- zines and I found all kinds of interesting little articles that .I don't remember having seen be- fore at all. In my reading, two facts I noticed particularly in thumbing over the pages — the number of things that happen on farms to upset and worry the farmer; and the vonderfst1 hob-. bies and handicraft that farm folk take up in their spare time, Among the worries the first thing I read about was the out- break of Newcastle disease among poultry. Theta cane the , Red River flood and the loss and suf- fering of the Manitoba farmers, stories of hardship and courage reminiscent of pioneer days. In Ontario Dutch elm disease and the spruce bud worm causing considerable concern, But all these troubles — except the Red River flood -- paled into insig- nificance with the advent of foot and mouth disease. It was heart- breaking to read once again of the terrible slaughter and of the embargo that affected fanners right across Canada --- and still does. Anthrax was next in the limelight and then the decline and fall of the hog market, Syn- thetic dairy products and the possible adverse influence of the Itch.itch Ndearly era y firstVery of g liid 2. 1).

Perhaps you may think I found all this reading somewhat de- pressing. On the contrary .— getting it like that, all in one dose, as it were, I just sort of sat back and said to myself --- "My goodness, farming must be all right after all. Fanners have met with all those set -backs and disasters and yet most of us are still .here pitching," It ties in so well with a little piece I jotted down after hearing it over the radio — "I am not afraid of to- morrow, for I have seen yester- day, and I know today." Then I turned to hobbies, handicraft and new ways of do- ing things, all the way from feed- ing hens to oil painting. Suddenly I thought — maybe this is the answer — farm people are so busy experimenting to save time and labour, and then using the time they save to take up other interests, that they don't have a chance to worry too much about problems that they, personally, End impossible to solve. Or it may be that the farmer is filled with optimism after attending various annual farm meetings such as we mentioned in this coluun e last week. •As for hobbies and handicraft — among farm women their number is legion . and a better type of occupa- tional -therapy couldn't be found. But from what I read I think the top honours should go to a woman in British Columbia who had no less than seventeen hob- bies, most of which she had learned by sending for material and a book of instructions. If you wonder how she had so much time on her hands listen listen to her own explanation. "It passes the winter months after I have given our two chil- dren, 11 aiid 8, their' sehepl.les- sons. They cannot go to school-- during choo -during the rainy months because we are practically surrounded by water. We put our cash into this farm when my husband came out of the army but the real estate agent forgot to tell him the place would be under water during the winter. My hus- band works at Port Alberni and Modern Etiquette Q. What should a woman do ij a man offers his hand being in- troduced to her? A. Accept it, of course, and without hesitation -- even though it is her place to offer her hand if she wishes. She would show ill -breeding if she were to ignore any spontaneous act of friendliness. Q. When are plates removed from the dinner table for ensu- ing course? A. The plates for each course should not be removed until the slowest eater has finished that particular course and laid down his fork, Q. How far in advance of the wedding 'inay gifts be sent to the bride? A. Usually ten days or two weeks prior to the day of the ! wedding. This gives the bride annple time to acknowledge them. Q. I see more and more women smoking on the streets, Is this considered proper tow? A. Maybe sometime this will be accepted by good society, but at present it still is in the "im- proper" category, Also, a man walking along with a woman on city streets does not smoke. Q. When the person behind you at the theatre persists in talking, is it permissible to ass; them to stop? A. Yes, but do this as quietly and pleasantly as possible. If they seem to resent your request and ignore it, then speak to an usher. Q. Is it permissible to use both the knife and fort: when eating full? A. Usually the fork is the only implement necessary. Q. Is it all right for a girl to give her fiance an engagement gift.? A. Although it is not custom- ary or obligatory. there certain- ly is nothing wrong with it. Her gift might be cuff links, key chain, or cigarette lighter or case, Q. When one is a guest at a dinner served in a Motet dining room, or restaurant, should one leave a tip for the waiter in ad- dition to that Left by the host? A. No; this is only the obliga- tion of the host. Q. Is it all right to cut hot bis- cuits at the table with the knife? A. Never; break them apart with the fingers. wades through the creek every day to get to the road where he leaves his car.

EATING MONEY Looking through a pet shop 'window in Pretoria, passers-by saw eight puppies playing with cheques and banknotes. One of them had a five pound note in his mouth; the floor of the shop wag strewn with banknotes, cheques and loose silver. The owner of the shop had lett 4600 in a bag under the counter. The puppies had got out of their baskets to have a run, found thin bag and started to play with that money. Fortunately the owner lost none of the money. Cheques and bank notes chewed by the pup- pies were replaced by his bank. FREE AT LST OF BAKING SODAT .
