KEEP BACON masts arm ‘

Bringing home the bacon used to mean providing well for one's family and lt still does-literally.

With the desire to send the mn- Ior part of Canada's bacon mupply overseas the amount of bacon brought into the average horn" is amall and considered a treat. Per- haps the small quantity usually bought ls quickly used. but even one strip of bacon wasted is a real loss.

We “did" my peaches. by lamp- llght. this evening. Karolyn hai just gone with Rob and a sleep- ing Jamie. to their home "in the road" and Jeanie went then through the starlight to her house acroaa the lane. Not that the babe had been at all neglected during her absence. At intervals James would betake himself from his old armchair to have a short stroll in the moonlight returning presently to report: “She's still asleep!" I-t was as James had pointed out "no time at all to be messing with Jam- You’ll have all day tomorrow. El- len. and besides" ne consulted the old clock "it's high time we were all to bed." By night, I imagine James finds it difficult to court sleep alone. Or perhaps he finds the room above the kitchen lonely when he comes there by himself. In any event. my presence seems to be required, before he can safe- ly drift away into the intriguing land of dreams.

A marriage license only gives a hicbbledehoy boy and bcibby-sockl gm a legal right to dice vcitu Fate. It furnishes no guarantee that they will win out. It works no miracle.

Nor dces it automatically make a boy. who has no trade or profession; able i0 support B fflmill!

Their feet siill ache ‘.0 dance. They want to have good times. The)‘ want to run with the crowd. They want good clothes and cars. They don't want to be tied down by babies and to h-ave to go shabby and be harassed by bill-collectors.

They have taken upon their shoulders a. load they are not strong enough to bear and that crushes all of the Joy of youth out of them Under heaven there is no more nitrous sight- thflwr a teen-axe wife and mother wrestling incompetently with pots and pans and a shoe- string income and a sickly, crying baby. unless it is a boy husband driven to desperation by the lack of money and the knowledge that when he married too early he shut the door of opportunity in his face.

Of course. there is an occasional child-marriage that does turn out happily, but it. happens so rarely that it is not a safe bet. Only adults who have the price. who know the rules, who have learned to give and take. ulio can win, or lcse. and take it, are fitted to sit in at that game. It is no sport for teen-tigers to engage in.
