Wreichecl As a Child, Senses Like Tensions in Her,Own Children DEAR MARY HAWORTH: As a child I was wretched in school, though I didn't want to worry my parents. I felt ugly. fat and mis- erable. The trouble was that I felt then. and still feel. that my family was financially and cui- turally below the average family in the community. I went away to a small school for girls to complete my educa- tion and here I found my equals and true happiness. My innate yearning: for acceptance and leadership were satisfied; I belong- l have been married for 12 years and have been very happy. I still have that wonderful feel- ing of being a part of things. My husband and I teach Sunday School and scouting, and are mem- bers sf various adult groups. We also have a small intimate circle of close friends. Club Situation Klndleit Worry However, lately I've noticed 0 Shopping Around Island ladies should certainly look wclldreued this Centennial year. with another store to browse around in and compare, even the most fastidious of female shop- pers will almost certainly find "just what she is looking for". V Do you ever have trouble match- ing your acce i-1 For in- stance, when you are buying shoes and nurse. do you find it hard to get the same color? You will probably find it much easier if you buy the shoes first as there is' a much larger selection of colors in purses. and therefore it is much easier to match the purse to the shoes than the shoes to the purse. Carrying this idea along farther. you can alsobuy a scarf to match your shoes and . purse. ' Experts agree that three acces- 'and your gloves and hat might be of a contrasting color. Again, -buy your hat first and than tackle the easier job of purchasing sim- signs of stress in our two children. Again we are living in a com-,1 munity that includes in a n y wealthy. intelligent people. We can't sfford much that others readily acquire. This situation ,is brought home to me by the fact that the Golf Club, two blocks away, now has a swimming pool. Simultaneously, pools of adjoin- ing community clubs have been closed to outside membership. I wonder if this is the begin- ning of a trend that will cause our children to feel left out of things? I realize this should seem unimportant to a mature mind; but immaturity is child- hood: cross. ' Is it fair to confront them with more competition than they are prepared to meet? Don't children grow and expand through hap- piness. if my feel they can meet the world on even terms? Would a less formidable section of town be our answer? My husband shares my misgivings. a- he shared my childhood feelings. We would appreciate your views. V. I. Parents Most Affect Children DEAR V.

However. it would be unkind and unfair to even the basically self- confldent child, to put him in a situation where he alone son- splcuously lacks social equipment possessed by all other children present. That would be like send- ing a bantam weight amateur boxer blindfolded into the ring with a heavyweight champion. It's not true what you say, nor what you do, by way of encour- agement; it is what you are-that is. what you truly believe yourself to be - that affects your child's estimate of himself. in compari- son to children from auITOIIIIfIIl1g MRS.

Thus I wonder what your innermost feelings are - as a re- fugee from the wrong side of the tracks (figuratively speaking) who noii has wealthy cultivated neigh-t bors. Mother Seems Unsure of Self Are inferiority feelings begin- ning to bother you again. as you compare your modest gains in happiness to the many privileges that your wealthy neighbors take for granted - and that you can- not afford”! Or can you afford the club, for instance? Is the problem, rather. that you aren't asked to join? Is this the fact that sparks your thought of moving. theoretic- ally for the children's sake? Do you dread "losing face" with them as much as you dread their being hurt? Your situation isn't clear. but here is my opinion: If you have enough good neighbo n in your economic bracket to give your children companionship of their own kind. you might stay. Unless your own misgivings won't sub- side. in which case a move might be advisable. But sooner or later the children must learn. wherever they live, that the wealth of the world is unevenly distributed. So it seems pointless to try to hide this truth from them. M. H. Marylflaworth counsels through her column. not by mail or per- sonal interview. write her in care of The Guardian. Charlotte- town. By THE CANADIAN nu-zas Home economist Marya Daltnke has spent her life converting salads from the "limp-lettuce-leaf" stage into exciting. appetizlng dishes. Now she has written a book called "Marye Dahnke's Salad Book" outlining steps in successful salad making. The consumer service director of the Kraft Foods Company says salads were used before Caesar's time although the word originated with the Romans. They used to sprinkle greens with salt. Long before the Romans the an- cient Egyptians were skilled in mixing oils. vinegar and Oriental spices. which they poured over greens. Greeks used salads as a final course-a fresh, crisp ending after sweets. THREE RULES Miss Dahnke's three rules for salad making are: Choose crisp. fresh and dry ingredients and don't use leftovers. Be imaginative. There are nuts. eggs. cheese. sea- foods. poultry. meats and macaroni products to buttress any salad. Salads are a casual dish. they should not look worked over. To Miss Dahnke dressing is the backbone of a salad. The two main ones are French dressing which is basically a combination of oil and vinegar or lemon juice. and mayon- naise. a rich mixture of oil and eggs. Among Miss l'tshnke's favorites are two meat-bsserl salads. one with spinach and bacon and the other with chicken liver. TWO MLADG spinach and bacon salad: 1 (its. raw spinach.

Saute the chicken livers in butter until browned. Chill. Drain and cut into small pieces. Tear. the lettuce and endive into bite- sied places. Add chicken livers. onions. cheese and eggs.

Two Household Aids You can loin the do-it-yourself movement. flush the alcohol out of the radiator and ready the an inc for warm-weather driving. wih the aid of two of the oldest and most inexpensive household l products. One is baking soda, the , g other good old washing soda. Like everything else today. we ' noted that the smaller. old-time crystals have been re- placed by tiny crystals that pop easily out of the smaller. more compact box. old package is But now down to business. The i first job on the agenda is drain- ing the radiator. Run off the old water or anti-freeze. Pour a solu- , tion of one half pound of washing ' soda and three gallons of water into the radiator, fill up with ' clear water and run the motor for twenty minutes. cock to let out the washing soda solution. Flush out the radiator thoroughly with fresh water. For Better Performance This inexpensive. easy cleaning procedure loosens and removes the lime and other sediments on the inside of the cooling system. As a result. the motor requires less gas. runs at a lower tempera- ture and gives a much better per- formance. When it comes to cleaning bat- teries and battery terminals. it's a job for baking soda. Mix a table- spoon of baking soda in a quart of water and apply the solution with an old paint brush. Bl sure all the cell caps are firmly in place when cleaning the batteries. Rinse off the cleaned areas with fresh water. The bak- ing soda neutralizes the acid and cuts corrosion. After cleaning. dry well and coat with plain petroleum jelly to protect the terminals from corrosion. Cleaning the Windshield Baking soda is also fine for cleaning the car windshield and piping it free of bugs. Sprinkle a little dry soda on a damp cloth and go over the area to remove dirt without scratching the glass. After the cleaning, rub and dry. Getting the car in shape is a good time to spruce up the gar- age. Start off with the floor. Scrub it down with a solution of half a cup of washing soda to three gallons of water. Use two tablespoons of the washing soda to the same amount of water on rubber tiling or other composi- tion floors. Gloves and lags Work gloves and oily rags. so much in evidence this time of year. can be inexpensively clean- ed in two gallons of warm water and one tablespoon of washing soda. Let soak for a while. then wash in the usual way.
