MOOSE JAW, (Q) - Margaret Aitken. Progressive Conservative member of Parliament for the On- tario constituency, of YDl'k-Hll!ll- ber. substituted the parlor for the public platform in the federal election campaign last August.

Miss Altken. in an interview here. while attending the annual convention of the Saskatchewan Progressive Conservative Associa- tion said she did not make a single speech at a public meet- ing throughout her campaign.

"Instead, I attended coffee or tea parties from 11 in the morn- ing until 11 at night, day after day. until I had pretty well met all the women in my constitu- envy-"

HOW 11' WORKS

Miss Aitken says the coffee-drinking marathon like this:

A woman on each street in the riding uiis contacted and invita- tions were sent out by her to all other women in a hlock to drop in for morning coffee or afternoon tea. Miss Aitken met them in- formally", answered ihcir questions. and "just plain got to know them all."

It iirui'Nl AlikP'tl says.

Her unusual vampaign was airl- ed by 20 members of the Toronto Women's Pres: (lulu. Although

some were not of the suns poli- tics, they stumped for Miss Alt- ken, also a newspaper woman. In their leisure hours they mapped out the constituency street by street and went on a door-to-door informal canvass.

HECKLED IN HOUSE

Miss Aitken says she still hasn't made many speeches in the House of Commons. She admits she was ”a trifle nervous" when she made the first. And she receives the same heckling from opposing members that they accord to male opponents.

"They allow you a little leeway for your maiden speech and listen more or less in respectful sil- ence," Miss Aitken says. "But aftivr that you're fair game for heckling from both sides, whether you are male or female."

Miss Aitken says she spent the first weeks of her parliamentary career boning up on procedure, but still has a lot to learn after her first year in the Commons. She says she doesn't believe poli- tics have a specific women's angle.

She still keeps up her outside work. Her daily column in the Toronto Telegram, "Between You and Me." is a light resume of be-

hind-the-scenes events. She has written a book on her political career called "I-Iey. Ma? I Did It.”

Trout Recipe is Main Feature At Festival

OTTAWA iCPJ- It's our thing to catch a trout; it's another thing altogether to cook it. properly. The culinary angle will be taken care of at the Fun Flori, Man, trout festival by two home economists of the federal department of fish- EPICS.

Edna Raynor of Winnipeg and Jean M.icI)onald of Ottawa will give daily demonstrations of the cooking of fresh-water fish at the

Philandering Mystery

DEAR MISS DIX: I have been married six years and have two children, four and five years of age. The first year of marriage was blissfully hapllyi then followed four years of constant quarrels and, as I learned later, infldelitlu. There was one particular girl with whom my husband lived while I was in the hospital having our second child. Eventually he admitted he loved her and wanted a divorce. Then something happened between them: what it was. I never knew, but he said everything was over, he realized what a heel he had been and knew that I was the only woman for him. That was a yea: ago. and he has been simply won- derful ever since. However, I can- not get the thought of this girl out of my mind. I go out of my way to pass her house. ask people about her, think about her con- stantly. It's a form of mental tor- ture that I cannot stop. Should I tell my husband how I feel. or will that bring the whole story back to him?

The general symptoms to watch for. says St. John Ambulance are:

Pain at or near the place where the bone is broken and tender- ness or discomfort when gentle pressure is applied over the af- fected area.

There is often swelling around the fracture and this swelling fre- quently makes it difficult to dis- cover other 'gns of the fracture. not to treat the condition as a less serious injury.

There is usually limitation of natural movement so that the injured part cannot be used nor- maily.

Deformity of a limbi often occurs. The limb may assume an unnatural position and be mis- shapen. The contracting muscles may cause the broken bone to override, making the limb shorter.

That Body of Yours

By James W. Barton. M. D.

TREATMENT OF ATHLEIC INJURIES

The injuries auffered by athletes in competition are found to affect primarily the soft tissues of the body, being almost entirely damage to muscles, tendons and the liga- ments which support the joinu. Fi-actures are uncommon and it is for this reason that in the past t.rea.Lment of athletic injuries fell into the hands of "trainers," "rub- bers" and others who treated soft.- tiasue injuries who, by their skill in such treatment. WC:'re often able to return the athlete to competition sooner than a physician would.

In the Canadian Medical Associa- tion Journal. Dr. Normal C. Delarue states that it was only during the past few decadu that team phy- sicians responsible for the care of all injured players, were finally ac- cepted as having their proper place in the management of these injur- ies. In the past physicians had usually followed ii course of treat-i ment involving prolonged rest itnd,i of course. this was not desirable if the player was to return to the game as soon a.s possible.

The ideal arrangement is to have utmost confidence between manage- ment. coach and physician. The coach should be responsible only for: the athletic training and condition-l ing of the team and the physician should be responsible for Li" i cal condition of each individual player. This training and con..- tioning of players means I rigorous training schedule before the play- ing season begins during which time, carefully selected exercises must be stressed for the special pur-twee of strengthening muscles supporting joints, such as the knees, which are particularly apt to be injured. i

The usual treatment of such any injury, after any blood loss has been stopped in to use a pressure bondage and immerse the part in ice water or apply ice packs for 30y minutes to an hour.

Your horoscope indicates the likelihood of meeting someone in August who will play an important part in your future.

Estelle Glover of Fort William and Pain Ti-egaakls of Ot- tawa haven't found life in Latin America all tequflla and tortillas. Their respective husbands: Clive Glover and Stewart Tregaskla, are with the Canadian dlplomatfc mis- sion.

KEEPS THEM BUSY

"If-you are lucky. you may fi- nally got good help,” says Mrs. Glover. who also lived in Ottawa. "but housekeeping takes twice as much time here as in Canada, so even with help you're still busy all the time."

"Yes," agrees Scots - born Pam Tregaskls, "you may live in a lovely house, with help but often the water system doesn't provide a drop of water, due to lack of pressure."

Finding the right house isn't too easy in Mexico City and rents are expensive. The Glovers finally found a large, ultra-modern home ln Lomiis. one of the fashionable suburbs. stone and wool has been used with dramatic effect down- stairs and painted walls are rose. green and cocoa. All very smart, but the Glovers didn't have fur- niture.

So, with Philip, 11 and Marcia, six also Mike the bumptious red setter they -camped for several months in a house without fumiah- ings.

FURNITURE COSTLY

"We found inexpensive furniture was of poor quality, good things were expensive. so we saved money by having ours made." said Mrs. Glover. "But. it took time. You can't hurry a Mexican." Now they have a most attractive dining room suite of mahogany that would have'cost much more in Canada.
