Poli- tics don't interest me much any- way - I've too much else. on my mind.” We recalled these senti- ments of a farmwife with whom we chatted one day last week, when at breakfast this morning James said: "Ellen, if you have any notion of going to vote. you'd better be half- ready. because I can't just say when we'll go - that will depend on the work." "Or perhaps." he "we won't bother this time! . . . we're going to be so busy today. What does it amount to anyway? Little enough where farm-folks are concerned." But we knew by his smile that his words were not of his heart. that nothing. even the insistence of his farming could keep him from exercising this rite of Democracy. On our part we are ever grate- ful to those who. recognizing the rights of womenkind extended them the franchise too. And if we are content to leave politics to the hands and minds of the sterner sex. it is no indication that we have no interest in the affairs and government, of our country. There will come a day. we believe. maybe in ours or perhaps it shall be the privilege of a new generation, when women will work shoulder to shoulder with the men at it, com- bining talents to make naturally a better government and a happier World. v What does it amount to - the privilege of voting as it is given to us in this, a land of the free? We wondered later if those countries ruled by mailed fists. could offer their housewives such pleasant scenes as were ours today? Would one first of all thank Providence that her lines had fallen in pleas- ant places? Could she look out hap- pily upon her own smiling fami- commented, 'L ITCHUVG AND NERVOUS TENSION Most of us. when upset. or under- going an emotional disturbance are not inclined to eat much and may sleep less than usual. There are, on ithe other hand. individuals who, in- ltesd of eating less when emotion- plly disturbed. actually eat more lfood, not. only at mealtime but cut more and oftener between meals. The eating of food is their particu- lar way of meeting their life prob- lems. In "Modern Medicine of Canada." Dre. C. D. Calnan and Desmond O'Neill. St. John's Hospital. Lon- don.

The intensity varies with the degree of strain: on release of tension. itching (pruri- tisl generally subsides. Emotional disturbances are usu- ally by psychiatrists who first point out that the itching is one nf the ways nature uses to give relief. By close, patient, sympathetic ques- tioning. the patient usually co- bperates by telling his life story and the physician then shows the gelation between the life story and the desire to scratch the skin.

The ushers were Mr. Elmer McIntyre and Mr. Wil- iiam Taylor of Charlottetown. brother-in-laws of the bride and groom.

ANSWER: You must realize that since you and the boy are in love. anything he does for his own self-improvement in the long run also will be for your benefit. If he feels that a European trip will aid his future business prospects, you will benefit directly by what he accomplishes. As he has had this European bug in his ear for some time. he would probably feel frustrated if you urged him to give it up. and any failures in his future might be blamed onthe fact that you discouraged his efforts for better- ment. Let him have his expedition and see to what good use he puts it. DEAR MISS DIX: Linda and I have been pals for a long time. and we have both fallen into the same type of boy-friend trouble.

Now we are knee-deep in August and soon the green fields of waving grain will be 4 ' a golden coat and har- vesting will be in full swing. How lovely the outdoor world is this time of year. "I wish I might be able to walk thru' the fields again soon." a little fellow remarked re- cently. A victim of polio he is con- fined to his room most of the time and it will be many a long day. if ever, before he can run and play again. I gave him the name and address of a wonderful couple who are doing so much to lighten the weary hours of young shut-ins. I know others will be interested in this address too, so here it is:- "Ranger Sieve. Riding With The Ranger, Aspen. Colorado. U. S. A." -Ranger Steve writes letters a- bout his actual experiences in the mountains. his horse, pack trips. camping at night beside clear cold streams, watching elks fighting in the moonlight. grizzly bears' squab- bles and so on. Not only are these letters dramatic but they are in- formative. Every month gRanger Steve writes one of these letters to every boy or girl who has joined. "Riding With The Ranger." Some- times ha sends photographs. birth- day cards and so on. Soon. he says. other letters will be going out to younger children. These are from Penny Porcupine. and no doubt Mrs. Steve has a hand in these! I. TUESDAY: I have often won- dered what the heguine was in the song. "When They Begin the Be- guine." Recently I saw an explana- tion so for others who wonder at the meaning of the unusual word. here is the answer A party of Hollywood celebrities pfrom Hollywood were in France at the Woods of the Bois near Ver- sailles. Among them was Cole Por- ter. During the course of their stay there they visited a little In- dian restaurant. seated near the dance floor they watched dark- skinned entertainers in colorful costumes begin a strange exotic dance to drum beats and soft lilt- ing music. Elsa Maxwell. famous Hollywood reporter. who was also! in the group. said: "This is the be-; games. It means the same as "yen", The women of Martinique say. Tve got a. beguine for you." meaning.l 'I've got a yen for you.' " r "It's the most exciting dsnce' I've ever seen." Cole Porter ex-I claimed and he began to hum. "Listen to this" - and he thump- ed the table to emphasize the throbbing rhythm while he sang." "When They Begin the Beguine." g So that is howacoie Porter's fam-: ous song was begun. and as we; know it netted its author thousands! of dollars to say nothing of thel fame it added to his already. famous name! i s. WEDNESDAY: Over so years, ago a poll was conducted among! i00 girls. about the man they would; like to marry. The most desirable qualities they all agreed were these. ' in this order: strength of charac-j tor. business ability, respect for: women. and lastly. love. Another news item from this old magazine! is this: "Silk stockings for babies may be purchased in tan. red. pink,l blue. Nile green. gold and white. They cost at least 31.25 a pair and look pretty with fawn colored kid shoes." --Incidentally. a four-bed- room prize winning house of that year was huilt for S2585 and in- cluded such modern items as "an automatic hot-water heater. fur- nace. nickle-plated plumbing and an enameled bath tub. 4.
