A METHOD THAT PREVENTS SNOBLNG IN SOME CASES I have written about snoring several times because this habit is .not only embarrassing to the sill "for over the winter." 'ihe.'e is snore, mmseuy but may cause real the corpse of the beautiful winged moth he captured evening flitting about the ll.1t on rt vcrandah. and liberated then in a favored laboratory of the chil- dren among the house plants in a porch. A large green grasshopper that "must be a Katydid" perished there too. seemingly in the midst of plenty. And during his stay we harbored escapees of spiders and caterpillars and we could have en- tertaincd a wide-mouthed warty toad as an over-night guest. "Isn":i she just 3 darling!" they cooed admiringly when Just to be cau- tious they lifted it on a shingle from a cool haven beneath a shrub. wide- It was graiiddaufziitcr who fancy- ing the distress of her poor babies had this curiosity later carried down to the garden. . . .

Jamie laughed. when one slithered away from our path as we strolled by the stream. ”You're frightened of themi" "Well, not actually scared” we admitted ”but they're not pleasant company." "They won't harm you. and they are use- ful on a. farm. didn't you know? They eat grubs and bugs and flies . . .they don't chew. but just swallow their food whole" and he added 'tlhey're as frightened of you as you are of them!" a This mornlngwliiiu the was singing a first tune of day and breakfast was in the making. we heard a low wall from the lawn -- 0. sound of distress . . . Having had more than a. little experience in our day with children we have learned to distinguish with some degree of certainty between the different cries. Among the saddest is the lonely "I want my mother" cry and to us the sweetest is a lusty outburst after a bump or hurt. It was granddaughter, bare leet in the dew. she was still dressed in pyjamas and as she continued to search about the old stone doorstep she mourned softly. "I can't find it.

A band- iuge around top of the head and lunder lower jaw likem.-.e may pre- vent mouih breathing. 1 l-lowevcr. as there are cases 'where no obstruction or nose or lthroat defect are prcscnt. how to prevent snoring in such cases is the problem. , A method which may prove of rein to snorcrs -and members of their families is suggested by Rob- (rt Elmaii.

Esther. nnd while oc- casional dreams are fun, it is the reality of everyday existence that forms our lives. BIENOUNCE HIM By creating a big renunciation scene, you'll be able to spend the rest of your life with it slightly shattered heart. which will give heroic stoture to the humdrum days ahead. This will be a good deal more sotisfaclory than breaking tip two homes. und embarking on ll sec ond marriage that will. itself, be broken before too long. Two un- stable people cannot make a satisfactory home, and both you am your sweetheart are too vaclllatlng to mzike a worthy attempt at settling down. DEAR MISS DIX: I am a girl of 19. engaged to a boy of 22 We have heen going together for three yeurs and are very mU(l1 in love. He is very kind and I know he would make it good husbanl. My mother. however. does not approve of him. She would like the to marry a professional man with no family ties. My boy friend work: in a dairy. never finished high school. nnd has his mother in support. I don't think I could ever learn to like his mother Anpther problem is that I want to start at the university this fall. I plan to he an nrt teacher. If I decide to marry next spring, I probably won't finish the course. is our love strong enough to conquer thcsc difficulties or will they. as our friends believe, conquer us? BETTY ANSWER: "Love conquers all". you know and it is more than just the title of a play. You do have a lot of difficulties to over- come, and some of them may easily lead to trouble after marriage. I think you should postpone your wedding until you finish your un- iversity course. This seems like ii long time. but I agree with your friends. you probably won't finish it you marry earlier. Having a profession such as you will be trained for is an asset not to be light- ly discarded. ' Another ohsDcle that deserve: long and careful thought on your part is your future mother-in-law. Since your boy friend ll her solo support. you will probably have to share your home with her. The uncongeniollty existing between you both will certainly not be con. ducive to a harmonious home. Continue your education. and rive careful thought to your other problems which are not trivial ones. ISEAR M155 DIX?
