LJ LJ * MAY AND DECEMBER : * "Dear Anne Hirst: I am just 18, and for three years I've been going 'with a man 45, We have exciting times together, going al- ways where I choose, and in other ways, too, he is most con- sderate. I think it will be "won- derful 'to marry him, which he has begged me to do more than once, "I've been told by three friends that he has a wife, but he de- nies: it. would regret marrying him. I have always heard that older men. are kinder husbands than young ones, and anyhow, I can't get interested in boys my age. "Yet lately I have felt so un- certain! I couldn't marry any- body else; if I couldn't have his love: I'd be miserable, RITA" * I hope you will not consider - * marrying a man more than * twice your age. - While he is ¢ dating you he is generous and * thoughtful, but after marriage to his taste. In 20 years you will be in your prime, while old age will be creeping up on him and he will not enjoy the recreations that delight you. Why have your parents al- lowed you to date .a man. of his age for so long, with no dazzled by. his sophistication that your mind is closed to anyone younger. Your present uncertainty is a hopeful sign; subcorisciously you sense how unfit would be such a union and your common sense cries out against it.' His undetermined wiihel status is not to his credit.

Clarke Thanks- giving weekend -- and so much for which to be thankful . . . Such a wonderful beautiful weather, glorious colours, and the visit of our Queen and hef husband, Prince Phillip, I am sure nearly every- one will be following the Royal couple_by radio -and television "as they make. their various ap- pearances. We who remember the baby princess, the little girl, Lillibet, the young bride -- now find in our gracious Queen a combination of all the promis- ing attributes that accompanied her period of growing up. Yes, we watch her, but often with mixed 'emotions -- glad that she is 'our Queen, yet knowing that but for unforeseen circumstances (the abdication of King Edward VIII) our Queen might -even now be leading the compara- tively free, and much easier life - of .a royal princess. We watched on our television set the pageantry of the parade from Rideau Hall to the Parlia- - ment Buildings and then the cpening of 'Parliament. 'And we loved every: detail of it. The Queen seemed more. relaxed than when we had seen her on any previous 'occasion, Her deli- very of the Speech from the Throne ~ was . really wonderful. To read faultlessly for half an hour must be quite an ordeal, even for a Queen, Well, I hardly need: say any more about this great and memorable occasion -- the first "time in Canada's history that a reigning monarch-has opened the Canadian Parliament. Prime Minister Diefenbaker, as head 'of the Federal Government must be a proud and happy man. And now to. come back to We have bad our own special reason for remembering this as a. Happy Thanksgiving weekend. Our daughter presented us with an-. other grandson --: a brother for David and: Edward.. We would have welcomed a little' girl 'but by the time: the baby arrived we were hot caring whether 'it' was a boy or a'girl, -- just so long as it 'wasn't both! Twins . wouldn't 'have surprised us in the least especially as the'arrival 'was' ten days over-due. This fel- low weighed.in at a lusty nine and a half pounds. Dee says he. looks like a little Indian -- chub- by face, flat nose, black har} inclined to curl: Not a very flat- tering description but then" how often can néwly born' babies ba called attractive? 1 think 'hig 5 name will be: Gerald 'Roe = ° after the: family names of his two grandmothers, No doubt his everyday name it be Gerry or Jerry. -- whichever way Fi decide to spell ft.

Yesterday I found him busi- Vv would ly engaged in an endeavour to plug in the space heater, later on it was the floor lamp, He has also found out how to open the door leading to the. basement and-a few days ago he pulled a fresh. cherry pie on to the kitchen floor. S06 we have our moments! We also find plenty of work to do down in the laun- dry. I say "we" because Partner helps with the job. I 'do the. washing and rinsing; Partner empties the tubs and hangs the washing on the line, He says he never expected the day would ever come when he would be hanging out diapers again. Which goes to show you never can tell, However, the end is insight. By this time next week I suppose Dee will be home and be look- ing forward to having her three - boys together again, Until then 'there.is no chance of my seeing the new baby as only fathers are allowéd to visit the hospital because of -the flu epidemic. We: shall miss our wee Eddie when he goes home -- but one thing is certain, we ought to be able to gét a little more work done than we have done the last 'few weeks, A little more visiting too. Yesterday 'Bob and Joy cames along to take us for a drive. to see the glorious colour of .the leaves up around the' Caledon. Hills, I couldn't see any pleasure in taking. Eddie along' so 1 persuaded Partner to go and I stayed home, Actually, it was the line of least resistance. Trying to ecomtrol a restless, squirming youngster in a car already full isn't my:idea of fun. Baby Ross, has the bed from his buggy on the back seat and 'that takes up a 'lot of room. Well, I wonder how many folk still have flowers. in the garden. We have 'an absolute mass' of golden nasturtiums. and 'guinea gold 'marigolds. 'The geraniums and - petunjas are still very colourful too. Partner has been very busy digging up a 'patch of' land for next year's garden -- and 'Eddie 'loves. to' sit 'in the middle of' it. Wé missed, having fresh vegetables this summer. Maybe it"is just.as:cheap to buy what you' want but; it isn't'nearly so satisfactory. What do 'you think?

NN Ring Out the oid The biggest and most beloved. bell 'in all -Austria is a 15-fool; 23-ton monster called "Pum- merin" (meaning, roughly, "pounder"). It was molded in 1683 from Turkish cannon which had been abandoned after. the siege of Vienna. For more than 260 years Pummerin hung in the 450-foot - Gothic tower of St. Stephen's Cathedral in:Vien- na, 'Because ifs stone-shaking vibrations endangered the cathc- dral's delicately fragile tower, its deep voice was heard each: Christmas, New Year's, and Easter, . Pummerin was silent during the Nazi years. When Hitler's troops 'fired part of the. | cathedral in 1945 the great be!l crashed to the ground and shat . tered. In 1952 the salvaged frag ments were recast at a foundry in Linz. The. bell's slow, stately journey back through' the Rus- sian ,zone to Vienna became a symbol of Austria's deep defi- ance of the Soviets. Since then the bell has been awaiting the completion of a reinforced plat- form inside the great tower, .One evening recently. the Ros man Catholic hierarchy, govern- ment officials, and some 10,000, 'Viennese gathered outside the - cathedral 'for the' reconsecration of Pummerin. There followed a two-hour band concert, 'and then, 'with the arrival' of Pres. | twelve : brightly: costumed stonemasons' pushed the bell on its wheeled 'ident Adolf = Scharf, _ carriage 'into St. Stephen's, Next "week it will be lifted 50 feet to Fits place in the tower.

Two huge pigs were needed to fill it and more than 1,000 por- tions were cut from it and sold on souvenir plates to celebrate the 700th anniversary of the granting of a charter for the fair, English cooks have achieved some marvellous feats of cooking at various times.
