Threshing. combining grain, the potato-digging, these were the im- mediate endeavours of the farm- erl today on the countryside about. The sun traced nice shadows on the fields and it was a willing wind the day fetched in over the hill- tops to lend fine assistance to all these works of the season.

The hedgerows now have put on I rare loveliness, similiar we find to that of the springtime though
it was more sprightly. This belongs"
to the passing of the year; these we think are the last trikens of re- gard they and the woodlands and fields biing-the graceful old white birches their amber crowns, the maples their ruby-gems. the brackeii and shrubs their JEWEIS of near- urange and bronze and scarlet . .

"What do you do for excitement these times, Ellen?" someone asked half-earnestly the other day . . as if the hustle and suspense and delight of the harvest were not enough to provide Us with many a thrill! But besides we have learn- ed to seize every opportunity to tuck in with the demands of our work. those engaging incidental! which go hand in hand with farm- life.
This evening. we stole away It the opening of dusk, when the farmers and children had not then returned from their field-work at Alderlea. tn join other farmwives of the district in sewing a quilt for a housewife who had the mis- fortune. recently to lose those of hers and we suspect many other

A Variety Of Desserts
By IDA BAILEY ALLEN
"OUR guests at and enjoy des- serts.” said Mr. J. L I-Ievew, Mim- ager of the United Nations Res- taurant. as he handed me a week of current luncheon menus for the UN Restaurant.
"As you can ace. we plan a wide variety of demertl to suit many tufes and diets.
Dessert Offerings
"We always have an American fruit pie; I French pastry or chif- fon pie: an interesting cake. such as chocolate fudge layer cake which is popular: cheese and crackers; often a pudding: ice cream of V3!- lnus flavors - our guests espec- ially like eggnog ice cream: I. com- pote of cooked fruit and a selection of fresh fniit.”
"This would be an attractive dessert menu to duplicate when en- tertaining at home." I said, ”with I noontime dessert bridge. or to serve. from a serving wagon when giiesta are invited after dinner for dessert. coffee and a. bit of TV."

Calisthenics S1

By Ida Jean Kain
Calisthenics are slimming but not tone. With flabby muscles. sooner
reducing. Theres a sizeable dif-i
fer:-nce. Slimming refers to inches --reducing to pounds.
its true that you cannot sub- stitute exercise for diet. Calis- thenics. even rugged ones, canli offset the bulging consequences of overeating. On the other hand, I low calorie diet will reduce weight, alas, dieting can't tighten flabby muscles.
So it is not a question of ex- Ircise or diet. but a combination of both that brings beautiful re- Iults. If your weight is normal, but your measurements need alim- rnind. skip the diet and follow ihrouizh with slimnastics.
Reason this wnyzl The shape of the silhouette depend: on muscle
or later the figure gets soft around the edges and measurement: ispread, willy-nilly. A little regular iexercise keeps live tone in the fi- gure controlling muscles and gives pincni a better shape - and you I shapely figure. . Then too. exercise is a circula- ilion rouser. and good muscle tone land active circulation bring an extra fillip of fine feeling. , Siimmed up: With exercise alone. lyou can tone muscles and men- lsure slimmer. With diet alone. you lose weight but do not tone the muscles. Back up diet with I small amount of regular exercise and you can lose pound: and bulky inches.

Shrinks From
DEAR MARY HAWORTH: I was I very shy. bashful 811'! throughout my school yoerl. taunt- ed and team! by in family about boys; consequently wouldm: look look at them. When at age 20 I started dating I never discussed things at home. for fear of ridicule.
When I was 22, I very wonder- ful. handsome boy fell in love with me; and after three years. when the crucial decision came. I refus- ed to marry him. This was partly due to inexperience and uncer- tglnty. and partly because of my family's attitude. Their influence on me was very great, and they sneered at him behind his back. Eventually he married someone else r
That was five years ago; and thinking back, I am almost sure I loved him. Yet when he left I was almost relieved. because life at home settled back to normal. Now the irony of it is thatimy fam- ily says I should' have married Julius-yet they did nothing to en- courage lt.'Inatcad I was made to feel I was on the brink of some- thing lewd.
NOW WEIGIIS NEW SUITOB
For 9. long time I didn't go out with anyone else, not wanting to get involved. But coming out of my shell is bit this past year, I met Paul. who has fallen in love with me. He is soon to leave on I foreign mission and wants to take me as his wife. I am some years older than Paul and don't feel about him as I did about Julius- young love may be different. He knows of my uncertainty (as he knows of my past) and still he wants to marry me. But my fears peiisist.
Mom used to preach to my brother and me when we were small. about the evils and miseries of married life-how love can't last, and that people who marry are crazy, that they should stay single and be happier. I am first to admit my emotional immaturity and I realize I have mixed up my own life too. I am tired of having no one; yet I am afraid to love someone. Can you help me? -R..S.
