And so go our days - all too quickly they pass. sometimes confess before we have hsd time to garner their nlceties with any sense of satisfaction. Can we pic- ture now the recent crowning glory of the orchard trees and blossom- ing hedgerows? Now that the fall dandelions replace with lesser gold the blooms of those of the spring- time, can we remember the rare loveliness of the former dotting the paddock and laneside? Lilacs, buttercups - "let. me see whether or not you like butter!" Grand- daughter smiled, holding the satin chalice of a first one gathered. be- neath Gage's chin - daisies, shall we see these again in mind when stormy winds sweep coldly along the farmlands? Or have we been too busy or too pre-occupied with our cares to notice such delights iot earth . . . and sky about?

Today brought us the children from the House across the Lane at Alderlea: she. a quiet maid enter- taining herself with a book or pa-

a chubby fellow busying himself making fanciful roads and bridges

in the sandpile not far from the scene of the barn-building. along which small tractors and other

machines are made to pass. Then wearying. he came in to ask: "Would you have something good for me to eat? or drink?" chat- ting all the time in a manner old beyond his years.

Jamie. a studious sober lad by na-

standard of credits. to our mind it

is Gage whose progress has been

the most marked. When we recall

that at the outset he knew almost

nothing of the three R's. it is amaz-

ing to us how he has mastered

adequately the set course of stu-

An Autumnal Romance

Widow's Married Daughter Frown On Mother's Friend

DEAR MISS DIX: I'm a middle-aged Wiflflw on my own, putting my son thrmi;.zli high school. The two of us are doing very nicely, although I would be very lonely if it were not for l fine gentleman friend who takes me out frequently. My married daughters dis- approve of him. and are very rude if he visits me while they arc here. They were the same way with a friend I had a few years ago, and I'm sure it would be the same with any man I happened to like.

MRS. M. Your loneliness may blind you to undesirable traits in the man that are more apparent to your dough- ters. You should ask them exactly why they object to your friend; if their reasons seem valid. con- sider them. If. on the other hand. they can give no sound basis for their objections. continue the friendship. In any case. an open discussion would be the best way to soothe everyone's ruffled feath- err

ANSWER:

FIND OUT WHO'S RIGHT

Young people often do take an unreasonable attitude toward the romances -actual or potential-- of their widowed parents. They assume that lone- liness. need of contemporary companionship. and desire for security shouldn't exist in anyone over 30. Often. too. there's a selfish complication in the problem. with the young married: assuming thiit'when Mom finds an interest of her own, she won't be too available for baby-sitting jobs.

All these considerations must be analyzed hefore the right answer is reached. if your daughters' objections to your friend are flimsy. you can be sure they aren't dictated by a genuine interest in your welfare. Another possibility is offered by the fact that you make no mention of matrimonial prospects in your letter. If your girls think your friend is taking advantage of your good nature and hospitality. they are justifiably resentful. So you see. there are arguments pro and CON." it's up to you to decide which side is right.

in uriel N laser:

DEAR MISS DIX: My problem is self-consciousness, and I'd love to know how to overcome it. I'm 28. have been married 12 years. and have five chiidren,'with another expected in a month. I'm not lin- attractive. but when I meet. strangers my tongue just seems in fr:-veze. Im afraid my husband is getting disgusted with me. We've been in this town a month, and though the neighbor: on each side of me "Cm VEFY pleasant, I Just csn't talk to them.

ANSWER: Of course. if your neighbors were at all neighborly. "WY would make the first move toward friendliness. However. since they hHVL'nt. You must! With young children, there's no reason why YOU should fear meeting strangers. There's absolutely no topic of conversation as sure-fire sa children. providing. of course. you're talking to other parents. Your older children must have friends; try to meet their mothers.

Twenty-eight is'lhe perfect age for mixing. and if you let yourself get into the 30: still a victim of self-consciousness, you may have (I much harder time overcoming your trouble.

IMPORTANCE OF WEIGHT TO HEALTH

For many years I have been writ- ing a weekly article on weight: it is called. "Your Health and Your Weight." because reliable statistics show that nearly half the popula- tion in Canada and the United States is overweight.

So important has this matter of overweight and underweight be- come in the opinion of physicians and our government bodies that National Weight-Height surveys are now being made. the first one being made in Canada.

In the .lournal of the Canadian Medical Association. we read: "A national survey designed .to find Ages has been begun. Organized i; cut the average weights for Can- adians of different heights and the Nutrition Division in co-opcr- ation with the Dominion Bureau of statistics. the survey will cover a sample of CanI.dI's population of Ill ages. heights. weights and raci- al extractions in various parts of the country.

Dispou of required tasks as early as possible in the morning hours and devote the remainder of the day and evening to pleasant re- laxation, indulgence in hobbies or . recreation shared with loved ones. . Those with creative talent should find this an excellent period for fomulating new ideas and putting imaginative plans into action.

For the Birthday

If tomorrow is your birthday. the following months may find you faced with the necessity of broad- ening your viewpoints and adjust- ing your ideas and theories to new- er standards. fnnately you are a quiet. comfort-loving person. averse to change and clinging tenaciousiy to fixed ideals and principles. In some cases this attitude has its merits. of course. but it can prove somewhat limiting if. by refusing to see the "other side," you not only narrow your horizons but by- pass opportunities. which call for imagination and new ideas.

Be alert, therefore. During the next six months you will be given the chance of proving your mlettle and taking on new responsibilities. To take advantage of the situation you will have to be not only ad- aptable. but capable of making a
