"Some day. when I few more super-highways are finished" Hal Borland writes in "Super- byway: the Country Road" iReade.r's Dlgestl" someone is going to make I lot of friends by advocating the construction of I few thousand miles of narrow, winding dirt roads that lead no- where in particular-roads that just wander off across the coun- try-side; up and down hills, across valleys; typical. old. country roads. with all the natural haz- ards and charm left in." "Such roads will be built for dawdling, for stopping on hilltops. for wild-flower admiring. for bird watching-for all the things the prudent motorist shouldn't do on I four-lane highway. There are still many country road drivers who want to see I tree, not I blur of woodland; who want I breath of country air. not high- way fumes; who want to stop and look without creating a traffic jam two miles long behind them " "Tn iodk .for what?"

"These back roads lead to something many of us don't want to forget. Sonia thing placldly beautiful something as natural as a stand of fine old hemlocks. Something that isn't too much changed by the years or by the things man does to the places where he lives and works." "We live in I world of change, often violent and sudden. and it is good for the soul to be aware of things which change only on their own terms and in their own time. That's why the back-road driver persists even in this day of wondrous super-highways. He has to know where he came from as well as where he is going." So many delights belong to the byroads-among them, for us pres- ently. if not "forever." the pink and white of the Mayflowers scented with the sweetest frag- rance of the spring.

IAIORTIPS MAIL Mother Of Three Fumes At Male's Failure To Help DEAR MARY HAWORTB: I am 27. married and have three children; we expect I fourth next July. I pride myself on the lob I do. of running an orderly well-kept house. But my problem is that I have "spoiled'.' my hug. hand through nine years of mar- fllle. by waiting on him hand and foot. not asking his help with the household chores. John is a very good provider and a wonderful man. but seems to take for granted that I am I powerhouse of inexhaustible en- ergy. I keep two neighbor chil- dren during the day. in addition to ours; and the money I earn helps I lot. but in the evenings I should like I little time for rest or recreation - reading. watching TV or knitting. However. my day's work some- times runs on until 9 or l0 at night. and I fall into bed exhaus- ted when the tasks are done. I admit ii. is probably my fault that John has never tried to help. and now rebels when I ask him to lend a hand. How can I cause him to "want" to help - with- out making an issue. or giving the iinpressioii that l am nagging or forcing him? I have taught the children. even my 2-year-old, to help pick- up after themselves; and I could- n't manage without the iiiiscell- aneous help they give. But I find they resent daddy's not sharing in the pick-up parade. not even to pick-up after himself. And it is extremely hard to teach them something their own father doesn't do - and won't be an example for. Have you any sug- gin . .

This genial attitude stimulates his desire to be further helpful, and first thing you know, he's ' ” I hand. As I get the picture. you are about as relaxed as I buzzsaw. in keeping abreast of your effi- cient houselteping. This sort of things drives I male off. inso- far as trying to help is concern- ed: and also causes him to feel that his buzzsaw spouse in em- phstically equal to her tasks. and more utiltarian than lovable, basically. i The big incentive that causes' I man to want to help aroundl the house is delight in his wife's society, and thankful appreciation of her good-humored efforts to keep him happy. Of course there are men who would help I whin- ing wile due to sheer kindness of heart -- because they felt bigger and stronger than she. and rue- ful about her shortcomings. 0r because they were brought up to be helpful, to the best of their ability. in any situation. 2'.-doctlonlsf. Misses A Lot But by-Ind-large, I man pitches in to help his wife - spurred by the sense that he "wants" to help - because his heart rejoices in the sort of partner she is; and overflows with love of her good- ness to him. and his. One doesn't evoke that kind of feeling by be- ing I perfectionist- housekeeper, or even by being I good fund- raiser.

It seems you've been I high tension operator on the home front for the past nine years, and only recently have begun to wish sharply that John would lend a hsnd. This suggests that your characteristic pace is wearing you down, as responsl' "ities mul- tiply and life gets more complex.
