Associates may try to discourage you at first. interpreting your ven- tures as speculative and risky, but your indomitable will to win should result in notable achieve- ment - with consequent npproba- tlon. Optimism and enthusiasm over your projects should. of course. be tempered with good judgment and careful analysis.

Q. How may a woman know whether or not she. should offer her hand to a man when being in- tmduced?

A. There is no rule for this. it is altogether optional with the woman. She may remember. how- ever, that the proferred hand is genuine over the intro- duction.

Q. Should a hostess take the men's coats when they arrive at her home, and there is no servant?

Trying to change his disposition might have the undesired effect of restraining him too much. Then you'd never see a smile or hear iii Jcike from him. Don't you agree that a slight excess of exuberance is preferable to an OVEIGCPS of -gloom?

You. a-prpnrcntly. have trouble entering into the spirit of fun, mitl it would be a good idea if yould try to overcome this difficulty. Try to create an atmosphere of oomradeship yourself, even it it's only in a small way. and you won't feel so left out when your husband embarks on his evening career of making the party ,a success. ,

You.r're very wise to laugh off comments as you do. instead of mak- ing a big to-do over them: by minimizing your hus"oand's exhibition-ism to yourself and your friends. you'll overcome your own consciousness of

Tuesday: For several months a cigarette company carried on an extensive radio advertising cam- pa.ig.n. "Take a. puff of our cigar- ette". the tobacco hucksters said, "Then take a puff of your own brand. Now which is milder?"

The first bran" is milder always. the unwitting vlclim admitted. His own brand was stronger.

For a long time a certain man snorted every time he heard this statement mide. Finally to con- vincc his immediate friends and family. be persuaded them to make this so-called test. 1-lis parents-in- law, his wife, himself and a cou- ple of neighbors did just as the

advertisers asked. First each took

a puff of a oertain brand, then tried a second brand. In each and every case the result was the same.

. just as the hrucksters had said, The

second brand was harsher. How-

ever that man reversed the order of cigarettes, and it was the huck- stei"s brand that was harsher! This proved only that the second puff

of smoke through the nose was harsher than the first, "I knew or at least had suspected as much,” said the man gleefully.

Wednesday: Watching two little boys nearby eagerly assembling a model airplane I wondered how many little boys such as these across Canada enjoyed this inter- esting and instructive pastime. Model airplane builders belong to a world wide fraternity. This hob- by has no barriers of age, sex or income. You may buy a model kit for as illLiE as nineteen cents or as much as a few hundred dollars.

In 1951 a model plane contest at Toronto drew 30.000 spectators. Twenty little precision-built ma- chines in a Canadian contest in l952 were controlled from the ground by radio. Among the first Canadians to build model planes was a young boy by the name of John Mccurdy of Baddeck. Nova Scotia. Now we know him better probably as Hon. J. A. D. Mc- Curdy. M.B,E. former Lieutenant- Governor of Nova Scotla.

Thursday: A gentleman came into a Paris barbershop with a small boy. one day and explained that since he.had an appoint- ment in the neighborhood. he would like his own hair cut first. This accomplished. he handed the small boy up into a chair, urged lilm to be patient and departed When the boy's haircut was fin- ished. the gentleman had not re- turned. and the barber told him to sit in a nearby chair and wait.

A half hour passed. "Don't worry." said the barber. reassuring- ly, "I'm sure your father will be back soon." The boy looked start- led. "He. isn't my father." he said, "he just came up to me in the street and said, 'come along sonny. let's both get a haircut."
