l By An Island Farmer’: Wife Q>GM§4DWQVOW<€>@$'RWM'KQ

At. this lhouse “in ‘llhe road" from Alderlea and nearer to the other farm, voices in spirited conversation, the cut for our ris- ing, led us off into this brand new day. “Is this the morning?" we overhead the younger lad question his father. "Yes," Rob replied rather sleopiily. "Then. let's get up!" was the suggestion. We found today. a second one that kc-pt Jamie home from school, that there is an affinity between the t\vo boys which makes them mostly companion- ablc and co-operative in their work or play. though a differ- ence in age of more than five ycars, puts Jamie in a respon- sible pOSlLIOH indeed as regards the care of the younger fellow as well as in the example he must set to this alert Lmitaltor.

a a

lt is surprising to note the dc-l grce of respect Jamie receives.‘ "Milk or water?" at a mealtime brought a glance at Jamie's glam! and the satisfied reply “Just what And towards duskl up your toys" brought no active response but a contented "Jamie's not picking up his!“

On tihe whole rt has been a de-

brightly on many a project that servcd to keep thcm busy. “Give them something they like to do— but give them something!" has been a workable notion of James and ours through the years, be- lieving that a busy child is al- \\i'a_vs a happy one. Their cntcr- prises occupied much of the space in kitchen and pantry two rooms connected by a wide door- way. At times in our house-vzork and in these restricted quarters, we become entangled in yards of "lines" which provided imaginary power flor t-his or that venture: we stopped respectfully about and over structures fashioned \v.th tinker-top gearing, that were in- deed “fearfully and wonderfully made"; shins were barked on wheel-barrows and a kiddie car; we stepped and clipped upon chalks and crayons, pencils, and pieces of plasticine, aids to mod- ern education, that would have been n matter of envy to the children o-f our generation. And we sat. down to wipe ttlie perspira- tion ofif a brow that likes a nice measure of law and order in her surroundings, on a Christmas

§DOROTIIY DIX SAYS- Childless Couple

Does Fair's Lack Of Offspring Destroy Chance Of Happiness?

‘S.

DEAR MISS DIX: We are a married couple in our 30's. Have a little home and farm which we have worked together and paid for. We are much devoted to each other and very happy. But we have no children and our friends and acquaintances continually tell us that our home can never be a real home and that we can never be happy without children. Now we like children, but we do not mlss them, and as God has not seen fit to send us any we are content and thought we were happy until people stirred us all up. Do you think it true that childless NOD18 Clinltﬂt be happy?

. WORRIED

ANSWER: What's the matter with your common sense that you have to let somebody on the outside tell you that. you are not happy when you are happy and get you all hot and bothered over lt?

1t is the silllest thing I ever heard of. For liow can any one else in the world know how you feel about things or what your desire Ol‘ what would make you happy? Taste is absolutely individual and the thing that one person enjoys bores another to tears and what one per- son yearns after most the other wouldn't have on a bet. Believe me, my dear lady, you will never be happy until you make up your mind that you are not going to lct what people say influence you one hair's breadth.

As to whether a married couple are made unhappy or not by the lack of children, It depends entirely upon the individuals, There are some men and women who have the paternal and maternal instinct so highly developed in them that they are miserable without little arms around their necks, but there are plenty of other people who can take children or leave ‘em. so to speak, and be equally happy, and not a few couples who regard children as brats and nuisances.

Many of the very happiest marriages are childless. If a man and

woman lOVe each other, they are drawn closer together by the lack of children because they have only each other on whom to bestow their affection. They become better pals because, not having any children to take care of, the wife is free to give all of her time to her husband.

So you see there is no reason to let your neighbors make you think that you are going to be unhappy because you haven't any chil- dren. Especially when you are not.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I am 22 years old and have been married three years to a rnan of the same age. We have a darling baby 2 years old, Ever since the baby came my husband goes out once ln a while and most always stays out all night, He seems m get n restless fit ever so often and then we start fighting, He snys he has never been with any girl since he met me, but while he ls out I keep thinking such awful things about him that it is driving m; mad, He says he loves me and he gives me all his money, but if he loved mo, would he go out, knowing how badly I feel about it? My parents are dead, but I could slay with my sister and try to find a position. She would mlnd my baby for me.

C.C.L.

ANSWER: Yours ls another of the tragedies of too-early mar- riage. When a boy of 19 gets married before he has had any play- UYYW. he 8111105! lﬂvﬁflﬂbly "T95 0! the bﬂndﬂge of wedlock as soon as the novelty of it has worn off.

He doesn't want to be tied down with a wife and baby: he wants to be out among other youngsters having a good time, It's n perfectly normal state of mind, It i5 lust because he is still a boy and craves the pleasures that belong to his time of life.

If you are a very Wise young woman, you will try to renlizc that it ls not because your husband has ceased to lIJVc you that he wants

A Country Garden

By Mn. Gordon Macmillan

The seed catalogues have ar- rived! and Spring seems nearer while we read and plan our gar- dens for the Summer. It is wiser to choose familiar plants and shrubs than too many new un- tried plants, but for interesting experiences it is necessary to have a num-ber of new seeds and bulbs.

Beginning with the annuals, _l like the fragrant Sweet. Peas, and always choose the varieties listed with fragrance rather than size and this is what I like to order. Gigantic —- Five blooms to a spray are usual, while seven and even eights are not uncommon with

Flowers are large, densely frill- ed and have a fragrance sweeter and more powerful than any oth- er variety we know. Fragrant Stocks I love but do not grow

very well in the garden. l seem to have better Stocks in the garden room in the Winter, in

other gardens I have seen some beautiful plants.

The sweet scented mignonette is next on my order and it is sown for it's fragrance alone, as the plant docs not add very much to the garden picture. Nasturtiums follow and then the Sweet Alys- sum as a border edging for all the garden. Alyssum, the long lasting fragrant easily grown an- nual 1 like very much. The seed may be sown ‘early and late where it »is needed and it will last until heavy forst,

A magazine conducted a report on the favorite annuals of it's read-ers, and Petunias led with scvcn out of ten, this is a won- derfiul record. Zinnias, Marigolds, Astcrs, Snapdragonsand Larkspur followed in the top six.

T-he reason for the esteem of these annuals is first, their sum- mer long production of abundant bloom — even from late spring until frost, if you make repeat sowings of some of them. All are inexpensive and. easy to grow un- der a variety of garden condi- lions.

All are adaptable to many gar- den uses, including fill in work among perennials, replacements, mass planting, borders —- even rock gardens and summer window boxes. Considered as a unit, they offer a choice of height from a
