They all give the same excuse: 'Ours isn't a cheap affair, our love is too beautiful .fo give up!" I'm won- dering "whether the experience of a dear friend of mine will make them realize that all such affairs are cheap: "She married a man who turned out to be a congenital drunkard. After two years of misery she took a position, largely I think to take her mind off her troubles. A married man employed her, and soon be- gan shooting the same old line: His wife didn't love him enough, but how he could reward a girl who did! He entertained my friend elaborately,, enticed her into a new world of lavish liv- ing, and finally promised he'd get a divorce if she would. "It was all settled fast. They got married, and it didn't last three years, He lived his own life and hers, too. They went only where he wanted to go, and only his old friends were wel- come in their home; he wouldn't even receive her family. All too soon he was dating other girls. "She divorced him, and got another job. "Her first husband married a sweet girl; he stopped drinking; and they already have two babies, "My friend feels like her life - is over. She is a miserable crea- ture, and already looks like an old woman. 'Perhaps, some of these fool- tell you their affair is different will see in this true story one more proof that a married man who will cheat one wife will cheat the next. ONLOOKER" | * Two generations of readers * have followed this column * since I started it many years * ago. Yet for all my warnings * the same old sins recur, and * the girls of today follow their * hearts as foolishly and will * not heed. "I can't be happy * unless I am with him," they * cry, "and if he doesn't love * his wife any more why should ¢ he stay with her?" ¢ They forget that he vowed % to cling to that wife as he * vows to be faithful to his next one. They refuse to see him as a low character who pursues a single girl with no concern for her reputation. They. fall for the oldest line in the world, "You understand me, she doesn't". and how proud they are to hear those words! To the wife whose man they steal, they give not one thought, nor what is even worse do they think of the children whose father they would take from them. As you say, a man who is not true to one wife will not be true to another. Your friend found this through heart- break and despair and how she must regret it now! Thank you for writing as you did. You and I can hope that present-day readers, caught in the same web, will read and believe and turn back to the right while there is still time. * * * Readers with problems often find the same situation quoted in- this column, and benefit by another woman's experience.

EEE RFE RERE EEE REE EE EER ERE EEE. Today there are more left- handed people than there were thirty years ago. Exactly why this is so is a mystery, but in 1927 about six per cent. of people were left-handed. Now the pro- portion is nearly ten per cent. What causes left-handedness? It is concerned with brain devel- opment, according to a doctor. In the right-hander the left side of the brain is bigger, and in the left-hander the right side. Marshal Foch signed the first world war armistice with the left hand; Lord Baden-Powell, who founded the Boy Scout movement, was left-handed; Leonardo da Vinci painted his masterpieces with his left hand. Whether you are right- or left-handed is largely a matter of heredity, according to recent research into the subject, but if necessary a person can learn to use his left hand as expertly as his right.

But not today. The. weather being clear and the sea relatively un- ruffled, your captain exercises his discretionary prerogative of changing the course to pass north of Mageroy in the open Arctic Ocean.

No clouds or islands are in the way; nothing to intetrfere with the long-sought-after phen- omenon of the unsetting sun. You watch spellbound as it flirts with the horizon in a long tantalizing curve, dips one edge in the water (in late July) and then gradually swings upwards again. . . .

With mines running three shifts and restaurants open day and night, Kirkenes is a most "un-Norwegian" town; indeed, it can be described as an Arctic gold-rush town, although with much more cultured life * and. manners! Moreover, the country- side inland along the Pasvik Vals ley presents an astonishingly fer- tile contrast to the barren coast: lush green meadows, thriving crops and birch forests that seem to belong to southwest Norway. If time is no factor, why not spend the 6-month Arctic night on the top of Norway and take passage next spring on a freighter from Tromso to Long- year City, returning to Oslo with a load of Spitzbergen coal? -- From "How to Feel at Home in Norway," by Philip Boardman.

Clarke NGER FARM Well, I may as well.come out in the open and tell you what you have probably guessed. We are on the move! At least we shall be in less than two weeks. This old homestead that has been farmed almost continu- ously since 1822 now belongs to the Department of Highways. What will happen to it now is anyone's guess. Of course we know to a certain extent. We know where the stakes are; 'where the cloverleaf will be and how close the house will be to the road. We could have kept the house and part of the land but we would have been only 125° from the highway. Too close. In fact it was our closeness to -the road that was the deciding factor last Septem- ber when we came to terms with the Deaprtment. And let me say this: There are many complaints about the Depart- ment -- they don't pay enough; they take your land whether or not you want to sell; they cut down trees, break fences, walk through your farm when they feel like it. We haven't any complaint on any of those scores. All we objected to was the dangerously hidden iron stakes. The surveyors have al- ways been most courteous even it they do come in when they feel like it. The amount of de- struction has been kept to a minimum. As .for the finan- cial settlement -- we have been well satisfied. We were paid according to land values in this immediate vicinity, and what more could anyone ask? Pay- me=' 'o start with was a little sl » coming but an inquiry di. 1 to the Property Office very soon brought satisfactory results. So -- no complaints -- and very few regrets. ' People expect us to feel badly at leaving the farm. They look surprised when they find we are not, If we were selling to another farmer that would be a different matter, If it were still a farm we would want ot be here ourselves -- not see 'somone else plowing our fields; - some other farmer's cows in our barn; some other family in our. house. We wouldn't like it at all. But the way things are now it would be no pleasure to stay in the house and watch bulldozers rooting _out trees and 'dirt-movers tear- ing up the fields. It would be like watching a slow death -- watching living, productive fields slowly turned into con- crete and then eventually see hundreds of cars every hour speeding by where once cows 'had peacefully grazed. There is yet another way of looking at it. For thirty-four years Ginger Farm has provid- ed us with a living. We've had our ups and downs; struggled through the depression; had good' crops and poor -- but mostly good; we raised two children and now they are mar- ried with children of their own. Not only that my husband and I started out as Partners -- and now, in the twilight of our "already" years, we are partners still. We should indeed be ungrateful to a merciful Providence if we ut- tered one word of complaint -- especially as neither of us is physically able to keep up with the hard work necessary in farming. And now, if you are interest- ed at all you will be curious about where we are going. Be- lieve me, that has been quite a problem. For years we had our eye on one particular cor- ner of the farm where we in- tended to build when the time came to retire. Highway re- quirements queered, that idea, east, west, north and south, So we started house-hunting-- from Guelph to Oakville and across country. We knew what we wanted -- a newish house, not too small, near a bus route, with a large lot -- but definite- ly not in a sub-division. Sounds easy, doesn't it? It wasn't. We looked at plenty of nice houses, but the houses we liked were always in the wrong places. Big ° houses on small lots or small houses on big lots, with excess acreage that was too big for hand-tools and too small for a tractor -- and couldn't be sold because of zoning restric- tions. We found one ideal house: -- the man built it for his family = and then his wife wouldn't live there. I didn't blame her -- the nearest neigh- bour was almost a mile away. Another place, just as nice, was quite close to a barn. We nev=- er had an odour from our barn that was equal to what met us on that trip. Tdo bad -- the view was out of this world, We were very taken with another house -- good location, wonder- ful landscaping but the house needed a new heating system, storms and screens and new flooring in the kitchen. None of these things was taken into " consideration on the price. So we passed that one up. We were almost in despair. AND THEN WE FOUND IT! - Roomy house a year old, in a small village, on an acre of land -- plenty of room for the grand- children to run -- five minutes the other way and we'll be right in the country. We might have hunted a lot farther and not found anything that so near- ly met our requirements -- a rural setting, halfway between town and country; halfway be- tween our two. children and their children; halfway between Toronto and our old home. In fact Partner is already calling it "Halfway House". So there you have it. I thought making a move would write '"finis" "to these Chron- icles but your editor says no. . So, in a few weeks you will be reading what might well be called "Sequel to Ginger Farm". Wish us luck, will you folks -- we may need your good wishes, .
