My mother, my grand mother, my daughter and myself all look alike. We sound alike- our voice, our cough, even our walk. We all live in the same pat- tern; we even think alike. And 1 despise myself for being like them. We are "good people," honest and respected... Our family has been in business in this commun- ity almost as long as the county has been here. And we all seem to put work above all else--as if it were our Lord and Master. We are hypercritical of everyone and everything; and terribly curt and cross with our family if they don't act to suit us. Please! I don't want to go on. I want to break loose from my mother and grandmother and live as I please--not their way, which I despise. Perhaps I should count my blessings though--an under- standing husband who never com- plains (he doesn't need to); I do enough for both; lovely children; a few close friends who ways be friends; and many ac- quaintances. Still I don't want to be what I am; even more I don't want to be like mother and grand- ma, Mother says the same many times; none the less she is her mother's mage, INNER GE FEASIBLE I want to enjoy life instead of hurrying to get chores done by midnight. I want to enjoy my chil- dren instead of pushing them aside so I can clean up something. I want to know my husband again and go places with him and not feel like .a criminal if I am out enjoying myself. I want to be kind to everyone, not thinking nasty thoughts of dissimilar persons. How can I become what I want to be, instead of what I am head- ed for? Whatever 1 do must be done In my mind as we are un- able to break away financially, We don't live together; we work to. gether, which means close contact eight hours daily. ¥.D SIRE LEADS T0 GOAL Dear E.D.: Desire is creative | Bence eonstructive or destructive | notes they have in common a firm | belief in and faithful practise of according to the subject matter and or Sin -whether good or bad us your longing to change your- self is a big step in a of change provided the aspiration is consistently held at "confident temperature shall we say. On the level of self-help endeavor the rules for changing oneself are these: 1. Be aware of oneself "as is" in the current mold; but take inventory objectively not brood- ingly or despisingly. Such de- tached, but honest incisive self- awareness is a helpful preliminary to directing one's energies to- wards new growth. 2. Clearly image the new self and circumstances--i.e. the full fruits of change--that one pur-! poses to attain. Don't stting at | this imagery. Just review the men- | tal picture meditatively with spon- | taneous interest time and again as he thought occurs. 3. Shepherd one's emotions one's feelings and reflections away from the unsatisfactory state (presently held) and focus them on the de- sirable state one is looking towards --thus bringing to birth. FOLLOW POSITIVE COVRSE As of now your habit is to kick around your "despised'" images of mother, grandmother et al when grappling with the wish for change. This is a self-defeating not a pos- itive liberating use of mind-power. It is the natural trend the course of least resistance for humans to be involuntarily influenced by sur- roundings and associates. And liv- ing as you do within arm's reach of potent influences you deplore you must be especially alert and flexible in the field of thought to protect your individuality. It isn't so important to project his indiv- idualy at others argumentatively as it isc vital to recognize your own "inner guidance." This is the es- sence of original character. Claude Bristol's book "The Magic of Believing" (Prentice- Hall) might be a source of hel to you. It is, a study of the ef- fective use of imagination in bring- ing about the 'the more abundant life." Drawing on the testimonies of many successful persons he Address, Election At Lenore Group The guest speaker at the Janu- ary meeting of the Lenore Group of Simcoe Street United: Church held in the church parlors on Tuesda etenitg was the Rever- end John K.

His Honesty, Love of Fellow Man - Keep Burns' Memory Ever Green "Strings that vibrate the heart are few and simple, and can only be touched by a master hand" was the tribute to Robert Burns aid by Dr. Robert Charles Wal- ace in s| of the Scottish poet to the University Women's Club at Adelaide House Wednes- day night. The distinguished speaker, a past principal and chancellor of Queen's University, Kingston, explored the reasons why Burns was the only poet honored ahnually on his birth- day, January 25, and quoted stan- zas from his poems illustrating his love of humanity that had ens! - ed his memory in the hearts of people the world over. In the first place, Dr. Wallace said, Burns was the en of Living in difficult times were widening in the Calvinist church, Burns who was frequently under the fire of the Calvin elders flaws in thelr righteousness and "three mile prayers and half-mile graces."

"Burns was a convivial spirit, but he was not a drunkard," Dr. Wallace declared, "and after his lust for life had abated he became a good husband and a fond father. At only 38 he died, more or less broken. The farms he had worked had failed and latterly he took a job as an exciseman in whch he was not happy, and his own epitaph reveals that he felt that he had missed his mark." Dr. Wallace closed his address by reading the last paragraph of Carlisle's Essay on Burns, a trib- ute from a great writer to a simple man with a great talent. Mrs. Thomas Grossart ably in- troduced the speaker who has been honored by many universities for his academic achievements, and Richards expressed thanks. An informal question per- iod followed in which Dr. Wallace delighted the audience Yelating further anecdotes about Burns . K. H.

Choose a Wardrobe that Suds with Ease And be Ready for the By ELEANOR ROSS Any time at all, it's a boon to have a wardrobe of clothes and accessories that suds with ease. But at this time of year, when there is so much to do, plus so many last minute invitations and impromptu parties, it's especially fine to own clothes made of fab- rics that are not only beautiful, but that wash and p dry in nothing flat, or that look beauti- ful again with the aid of an iron. There are dresses and blouses of rayon flannels and gabardines, unconditionally guaranteed wash- able, There are blends of wools and synthetics that drip dry, and something new and delightful, a nylon-cotton fabric designed for washtub as well as for cosy wear in winter. SNAPPY SURFACES News in winter cottons is a lusher look, with happy surfaces. eep, clear colors take the lead, and there's much interest in tex- tured weaves with a "carved" ef- fect. Prints are popular in combina- tion with corduroy. Tweedy cottons have proven fashionable and prac- tical for any age, as have checked twills for casfal wear. There are conveniently few rules for washing today's cottons. Just be sure that colors are fast and soapsuds warm, not hot. Dry col- ors out of direct sunshine to keep their deep, rich hue. Corduroy is best unironed, and looks better for a gentle brushing with a soft brush after it is dry. Many of the new nylon-cotton blends carry instruc- tion tags. If they don't, consult salespeople, for often there's a uestion of whether or not to iron. ASHABLE TRIMS As for the wrinkle - resistant finishes, these usually come through a machine washing as Last Minute Rush med with velvet or satin, be sure these pretty touches are washable. Chances are they will be, since solorgast velvet and satin are avail- able. It's good to know that washable wools are on the increase--worsted jersey, wool and nylon blends--at more moderate prices than ever. There are washable flannels, tweeds and wool blended with syn- thetic fibres that can drip dry with- out even the trouble of blotting with a towel. Wool experts suggest, though, that you use two or times the usual amount of soap in wash- ing woolens (because wool fibres soak up so much suds), and at least three rinsings in lukewarm water. Many of the new woolens have been treated against shrink- age and against wrinkling, which makes these fabrics even more at- tractive, either already made up or in yardage.
