10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, Mey 30, 1967 Daily Dear Ann Landers: I work in a nursing home that has 125 elderly residents. Every morn- ing at breakfast our executive director stands at the micro- phone and reads -- first, the news bulletin, and then your column, You can't imagine how much everyone looks forward to this morning treat. When the director says, "And now let's see what Ann Landers has to say,"' you can hear a pin drop. I am sure the folks would be thrilled if you would say a spe- cial good morning to them one of these days. I wouldn't expect you to mention the name of the home, but it's in Kansas City and we'll know you mean us.-- Mrs. W. Good Morning, Friends in Kansas City: I am happy you enjoy my column, And for those of 'you who can still get into mischief, I hope you are paying attention to my advice. Dear Ann Landers: My hus- band is what the neighbors call a wonderful husband and father, and I guess he is -- between hunting and fishing trips,, stock car races, bowling league and the inevitable Friday night card game with the boys. He says he is happy. Well, I'd be happy, too, if I were free to come and go as I please, had a lovely place to live, someone to cook my meals and make love to me when I am in the mood. My husband would stay home if I asked him to, but who wants a man home if he is there by request? Don't tell me to join a club or find a hobby. I'm plenty busy with four sons. It's those hours between midnight and 3 a.m, that get to me. ANN LANDERS | Elderly Folk Enjoy Lander's Treat \just that he'd rather be with the boys than at home--and this is hard to take. Is there a solu- tion?--Lonely Dear Lonely: I get this same letter 50 times every day. Only the signatures are different. My advice is 1. Don't nag; 2. Don't beg for his presence; 3. Keep yourself busy; 4. Turn on the heat, You've got an immature kid on your hands, but kids do grow adult behavior to imitate. So, nile approach to marriage, and let's hore your husband be- comes a man before his sons notice they've passed him, Dear Ann Landers: My hus- ment. We've lived here years and love it. In October a woman (about 50) moved in directly above us. This dilly has a string of male visitors who stay anywhere from one hour to three days. Her telephone rings day and night. She runs the bathwater at three in the morning. Her radio and TV could wake the dead, Would it do any good to ask the landlord to throw her out? Or should we look for another place to live? We will never be able to find an apartment as good in this neighborhood and at this price.--Senior Couple Dear Couple: Move. It could be that-this dilly entertains only her friends -- and she doesn't have an enemy in the world. You'd have a difficult time proving she is what you think she is. If you are wrong, she could sue you for defamation of character. I say, taint's worth two I know he's not cheating, it's it. Centennial Commission Director Plans Busy Life Next Year EDMONTON (CP)--What will a centennial commission direc- tor do when Centennial Year ends? Marianne Linnell already is planning projects to add to her other job as alderman on the Vancouver city council. The only woman on the 12- member board of the national centennial commission, Mrs. Linnell has worked with the commission for four years and been on the executive board for 2% years. In Edmonton to open a folk Alberta legislature by overseas soldiers in 1917. Mrs. Linnell said women fit -- into political and civic le: "They are natural organizers and they know how to get things done. If a woman has the qualifications, it's relatively easy to get elected.... "On the Vancouver council I've always had my greatest support from men, I work with men on unfeminine projects like the sewer board, downtown in- art festival sponsored by the, commission, Mrs, Linnell said working on the board means commuting to Ottawa for a meeting every two weeks. "It involves the study of many individual reports and numerous decisions. Afterward I might be on my way back to Vancouver, or going anywhere in Canada or in the United States. "I've been as far north as Nahanni Valley, N.W.T., on centennial business and as far east as Corner Brook, Nfld. "Centennial has been a unify- ing force to Canadians. It has broken down lots of barriers--in the youth program alone, more than 60,000 youngsters from 15 to 18 years of age have visited from one province to another." ESKIMOS TO SEE COW With obvious enthusiasm, she said: "Everybody's getting into the act--I even. opened a cen- tennial cat show in Vancouver recently. "'We've explored every facet of community life. We're send- ing a cow on a barge up the Mackenzie River for the Eski- mos who have never seen a cow. There are 99 travelling festivals similar to this folk arts festival, bringing Centen- nial to all parts of Canada, not confining it to the East." Born in Calgary, Mrs. Linnell graduated in home economics from the University of Alberta in 1935. Her father, Robert mother of two sons, dustrial redevelopment, and the B.C. Aviation Council, where I speak for the nervous civilian." CONCERNED OVER YOUTH She said when Centennial Year ends she plans more in- volvement with the problems facing young people in Van- couver. Widowed herself during the Second World War and the one adopted, Mrs. Linnell knows the problems of a mother who must raise children alone. "The most difficult years are the pre-adolescent from 10 to 14, when a boy needs a man to identify with," she said, "For this reason I support the Big Brother movement... . "There's also a need for more and better day care for the chil- dren of working mothers. "I'm greatly concerned about the excessive amount of porno- graphic material available to young people. And we have the so - called coffee - houses and psychedelic shops. They draw the young and insecure like honey draws flies." But at least "we know where to find them, to bring them into counselling, direction, and often, we hope, back home.*' ORIENTAL RELISH Accompany barbecued spare- ribs with* halved fresh nec- tarines, each topped with a little chutney, peantus and coconut.

Of Mental Ailm TORONTO (CP)--Fearful, il- logical, uncontrolled--these are adjectives used to describe the child suffering from: a mental ailment whose main symptom is withdrawal. Dr. Milada Havelkova of the Hospital for Sick Children de- scribes it as 'withdrawal into himself away from others; a complete isolation from the out- side world which he seems either to fear, reject or be un- able to comprehend." These are children suffering from autism, a mental ailment also known as childhood psycho- sis or childhood schizophrenia. Dr. Michael Rutter of the In- stitute of Psychiatry, Maudsley Hospital, London, estimates that four or five out of every 10,000 children develop it--the major- ity being boys. It rarely shows up after the age of five and usually appears within a few months of birth. Although its cause has not yet been discovered three main theories are advanced for its outbreak, They are brain dam- age so subtle that it may not! be detected; a chemical imbal- ance in the body, or refrigera- tor mothers--mothers who can- not show warmth toward the child, a INCAPABLE OF LOVE Dr. Adam Rosenblatt, a psy- chiatrist, and his colleague John Brown, a social worker, agree that the best treatment for these children is tender, loving care. But it isn't all that easy. "The mother gets no feed- back from the child," says Dr. Rosenblatt. resentful at the child not giving anything back that she cuts off from the child." "It's hard on them because autistic children can't give back rewards," says Mr. who doesn't love you back." But for the parents there are many confusing factors. The child often grows physically in keeping with his age but not emotionally. Often they go into tantrums because they fear streetcars, animals, or strang- ers. It's very difficult for a parent when a child starts "She may be 680}; Brown. "It's hard to love a child) 'Withdrawal From Reality' Sign ent In Children The tender-loving care treat- ment d ds that give the child complete emo- tional commitment for more than a couple of hours a day. "It's a hell of a messy job," says Mr. Brown. "You have to sweat it out for three or four or five or six years, You just put up with the behavior." And in spite of all this there is no way of telling if the child will improve. Many do improve as they grow older and may adjust to community life and earn a living. Others become complete mental defectives even though their intelligence had normal potential. Even as an adult, however, there is no guarantee that the autistic victim, no matter how successful outwardly, won't have problems relating to other people. "But with patience and per- sistence it is often surprising what good results can be ob- tained," says Dr. Havelkova. BADLY PARKED DOGS SHERBROOKE, Que. (CP)-- Residents who let their dogs run loose now have to pay a 'parking ticket'. To reduce the number of pets roaming the streets the animal control ser- vice, LOST DOG, approaches the owner, says "Madam, your dog is badly parked," and gives the offender a ticket. |THE STARS SAY By ESTRELLITA FOR TOMORROW Planetary aspects for Wed- nesday are less restrictive now, especially in the matter of finances.

Occupational advancement Outdoor Furniture Kept Clean! With Soap, Water And Energy By ELEANOR ROSS You can't depend on Mothér Nature to clean the outdoor liv- ing area that beautifies a home and gives such joy during the warm weather season. Ra' may freshen the greenery but it takes sudsy water and human effort to cleanse porch and patio furniture and the accessories, Armed with pails of suds, brushes for scrubbing, and a garden hose for rinsings, you can give the whole works a periodic cleanup, and you might even let the rest of the family help with the job: Choose a sunny day, a grassy spot, and suitable equipment and then get organized. -Plastic pails are light to carry, but an old - fashioned galvanized iron the same way. Then hose-rinse, wipe with dry cloths, and let the sun complete the drying. Plastic cushions need to be wiped with suds often to keep injsummer dresses from serving as dusticoths, Go over the cush- fons with a cloth wrung out in sudsy warm water; then rinse and wipe them dry for instant re-use. Cushions with non-removable fabric covers can be given the "dry suds" treatment. Just beat soap or detergent with a little water to make stiff suds. Apply with a sponge, scrape off the dirty suds with a spatula, wipe lathered brush, hose it down, then fill it with clean water, Your feathered friends will re- ward you with frequent visits, and they can put on an amusing show as they frolic in the bath, EXPENSIVE SOUND Francoise Dorleac plays a 250-year-old cello worth $60,000 in the spy movie Billion Dollar brain.
