“No high ones such as Mack hoped for,”” we chuckled. ‘There willbe a bit of shovelling, but mech of the yards is swept elean.”

“Oh tit wasn't exactly a rag- he offered “though it wouldn't be too plea- sant if one had to be abroad in it. . Not too frosty this morning?’

“Not too frosty,” we agreed.

Below the old birch tree where the childrens rope swing now hangs forlorn from a stout branch the pup, barked excitedly af a saucy eompany of _ spar- rews above. They tittered, we eould fancy like so many young- sters repressing happy chuckles, and, lifting lightly, flew to the haven of a tall maple near by. So lovely the day was, bright and clean and new.

“We should have been up ear- lier, Ellen. Monday always has its extra work,’ James offered first on the stairs and descend- ing. ‘I'll bet,”’ he nodded thoughis taking in wider territory, ‘‘that litter Rob was expecting in the piggery of late, would arrive yesterday at the height of the storm!”

We smiled. “And we'll likely hear of some storm-babies,” we said. ;

Busily then our day passed, un- til in purpling shadows over the winter farmlands, the twilight brought the night. The moon lit the path we followed then to the house across the lane. We stop- ped midway to look out on the silvered reach of valley and hill.

enchanting it was. How re- rently hushed. Would, we won- dered, any Heaven we might as- pire to be any lovelier than this?

The years are growing up fast the children in the house across the lane. Granddaughter is quite mature for her years. Mack too, nine-past is given to wise wonderings and sayings. Alex, the busy and sometimes impatient lad, though no cry- baby is the merriest of the three. He is already a mannish fellow and knowing. His formal educa- tion so far consists of recogniz- ing and naming the letter “0” on a kitchen calendar, an accom- plishments we deem _ clever, though Granddaughter reminds | us “that’s nat the way children are supposed te be taught now- adays!”’

And away past an horizon the day goes now, this first day of our workaday week.

“Detergents may get clothes cleaner and leave dishes un- clouded by soap film, but they can be a threat to a woman's hands,” Dr. Louis A. Bru-xsting, senior Mayo Foundation derma- tologist, told a recent. medical conference. :

He went on to explain that de- tergents act to remove layers of dirt; correspondingly, they may remove ‘protective skin layers, leaving no defence against skin troubles.

RUBBER GLOVES

Dr. Brunsting recommends the use of rubber gloves and keeping hands out of hot water and de- tergents as much as it is possible. |

Here in the test kitchen we find that rubber gloves become easy to work in with practice. After | all, a surgeon wears rubber gloves when he operates; we homemakers can certainly wear them on Operation Dishwashing

MARY HAWORTH

i

Dear G.Y.: First, may i ex plain to our readers that this amazing letter of yours seems bonafide. It is handwritten in ink,

(perforated to-go into a note book)

Your letter comes from a “‘wide open” part of the land, where men still assume a somewhat feudal type of relationship to women. And where women are conditioned to contest on a very surreptitious level of power-strug- gle, amongst themselves, for fa- vor with the male, whose patron- age and allegiance gives them status, influence, security, etc. (at least in their own estimation).

Which I mention as background for my willingness to believe that possibly a situation does exist, such as you report. Moreover, the ugly triangle (or quadrangle, at this writing) has the lunatic sound of truth. When people set out to make up stories, they are carful not to sound crazy. It is only truth that can sound crazy and at the same time real. COMBATS EVIL

So. much for preface. Now, about putting your grandmother in jail, or finding help that will save your home—] want to con- gratulate you on being a heroic little girl. It takes brave charac- ter and a good mind to lead out decisively as you are doing, in an effort to rout evil in your environ- ment, on the adult plane.

If your father hasn't spent a day with you in the past three years, maybe it’s because he ts ashamed to, being such a traitor.
