Being kept from alcohol by this higher power for 24 hours at a time and being help- ed by his fellow alcoholics should he slip, is the method responsible for the success of this great or- ganization. Unfortunately there are many alcoholics (men and women). with just as much brains and moral background, who do not want to give up alcohol. feel that they are lowering themselves socially or in the opinion of their fellows if they refuse to drink alcohol. '1i'iey feel that they are giving up their in. dependence by asking for help to abstain from alcohol.

It is these alcoholics who re. fuse help who are the cause of grief and sorrow to their loved ones. who feel that the alcoholic owes it to his family to avoid al- cohol and measure up to his life's responsibilities. Families often ask the family doctor to give them something to cause lack 'of desire or distaste for alcohol. such a drug as Benzedrlne sulfate, Digi- ialls or Antabuse to put in the

DEAR MISS DIX: We have one child, a girl 91,4 years old.

Miss Georgie Kennedy. RN.. has arrived from Calgary this week and is the guest of her sister. Mrs. Mark Gaudet, .Jr., Summerside.

Mrs. Claude MacNelll, formerly of Eimsdale, but who has taken up residcnceiin Summerside on Hor- vard Street, was pleasantly sur- prised on Wednesday evening when a number of friends called to extend a welcome. A presenta- tion of a lovely gift was made by Mrs. Norman Macdonald, who also assisted Mrs. William Beatty, Mrs. Wallace Bradshaw, and Mrs. Har- old Mclvor in serving delicious refreshments. .

I-'lt.lLt. and Mrs. Norman Sn-iith She

of Greenwood. N. S.. have ar- rived in Summerside to spend Christmas with the lntter's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Baker. is very self-conscious about being the oldest child in her class. The 0 0 0 children in the neighborhood, who are her own age, make nasty re- marks to her. She has consequently gotinto the habit of staying in the house all the time. We live in a nice neighbor- hood, have our own home. and my daughter wants for nothing, J companionship. She goes to church and Sunday School, and any child is wel- come in our home. I have taught her to be nice to other children, but they won't let her enter into

their games. How can I help her make friends? WORRIED MOTHER

Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Harlow and family. James and Anne. left Sum- merside this week for Berwlck, N. S.. where they will spend the Christmas holidays with relatives. 0 O 0

Mrs. Vesta Ilsley of Wolfvllle. N. S.. arrived in Summerside on a visit to her daughter and son-in- law, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Mer-

Ce,-, ANSWER: Your problem stems from the moth-

ers of the other youngsters in the neighborhood. Realizing that your child has oi handicap. they should teach their own children to be particularly nice to her. No mother is doing a good job of training her family unless she teaches them the fundamental virtues of kindness and compassion. Children themselves seem to have an unnatural bent for cruelty to any of their kind who does not conform to a set pattern. Physical weakness seems to be the chief object of their taunts, although it should be the pxlnclpal source of their charity. TALK To THEIR MOTHERS

Could you talk to any of the mothers in your section and have them co-operate in getting companionship for your little girl? In addition to her Sunday School and church activities, could you get her into a girl scout or similar group where she would associate more closely with other girls? If there is no such group in your neighbor- hood, why not organize one yourself? As the leader, you would have very direct. yet discreet. supervision over the child and her friends, and could more easily guide the activities to include her.

As your daughter”: health improves. she'll make more rapid strides in scliooi, so that in a short time the disparity in grade will lessen. Companionship difficulties will then disappear. In the meantime, do everything you can to encourage her in group play and to change the attitude of the other children towards her.
