A boy I met three months ago is the most fascin- ating, bewildering person 1 ever knew; and he says he is crazy about me. I know I am about him. But he tries to make me do things I know are not right, yet the way he explains them seems to make them right. He even urges me to take more than one drink, although 1 know I shouldn't. "Something is egging me on, something else holds me back. I cannot imagine going on with- out him, although I suppose I could. T don't trust him, and now I am afraid to trust my- self. "Maybe I've not kept up with modern times, but I am one of the very few girls that doesn't pet, and I wouldn't think of kissing a boy 1 did not love. But then I've never had to make such a decision as this one! Can you help me do what 1 know is right? TEMPTED" * Times do not change in the * sense you use the term. Your grandmother captured yonr grandfather by .living up to the standards of her day. Stan- dards of today are the same, for right is always right and wrong is as wrong as. it was. By living up to your own standards you may capture this heart-breaker, if you really want to marry a boy who demands liberties in the name of love. ew ow Wow WoW ow ow ow ow» For Half-Sizes PRINTED PATTERN 4838 SIZES 1415-2413 1 by Lane Selns Smart warm-to-cool weather companion a suitdress with trim, slim lines to make you look taller and narrower.

You are, to my mind, * in love with love, and unable * to distinguish between a tem- * porary and a lasting affection. * If your parents consented to * your being engaged now, they * would be negligent indeed. * It is useless to try to ~out- * wit your parents.

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE On release from a prison farm in Burnaby, B.C., it is customary for the prison officials to give each man a small supply of "comforts." With the issue of cigarettes goes a supply of book matches. The inscription on the card- board flap of a recent issue of book matches reads: "Thank you -- come again." In Sacramento, Calif., charged with passing forged checks, El- len Harris mused: "I guess this ruins my plans to study ecri- minology and become a police- woman." hini Is breaking up, She' denies, however, that the rea.' | 2 ls a romance with Greek shipping - magnate Aristotle , who alse denies the rum romance, ert Mitchum, one of the high- est-priced and most durable stars in movie history, was complain-' ing about the directors and pro- ducers who, he says, constantly dog his trail. His well-packed, 6-foot 2-inch frame, covered by corduroys and a floppy sport shirt, lay limp in a dressing- room chair, while outside in the Irish dampness technicians. read- ied the set for another take of "A Terrible Beauty," a movie being made near Dublin on the seemingly endless subject of the Irish Republican Army. "Why am I doing. thi$\ one?" asked Mitchum, his dozi eyes briefly flickering. "I durdno. 1 made 'The Angry Hills, a tale about underground resistance against the Nazis, last year in Greece with producer Raymond Stross. Then I went to Holly- wood." Mitchum's angular jaw jutted forward with, for him, - sudden and extravagant emotion. "Stross followed me, the creep. He kept pestering me. Finally, one night my wife Dorothy roll- ed over in the sack at.about three: in' the morning and said: 'Loak, if you make the picture, we'll be rid of Stross.' I said 'veah,' so she said, 'go ahead and do it,' so I'm here." Catching sight of a pile of scripts on a day bed, Mitchum growled at an aide. "Get those damn things out of my sight. Right now." The grind of movie- making -- he did two last year -- was clearly on its way to getting him down. ' "I-don't even like acting," he continued. "But every time 1 turn around, someone calls me. The other day John Huston rang up, wondered where we were, WHAM -- Shirley Topley, of Canada, left, collides with Maria Villarreal, of Chile, dur- ing women's basketball play at Chicago's Pdn American games. and next thing I know, he said he'd be right over with a story. That's why I've bought a place in Trappe, Maryland. It's not so easy to reach, and the little men from MCA can't drop in on their way from the studio to the office. "I'm in this for the money. But ever since I got on this percent- age deal, I haven't seen a ko- peck." (His own production firm is making his current picture.) "All the companies have ac- countants. They come, bringing a stack of figures with them. The picture has grossed 14 million, but by the time they're finished explaining, you'ré almost thank- ing them for not charging you for your own services." For all his protestations, the 42-year-old actor will soon take off for Australia for something like his 40th starring role, in "The Sundowners," a Warner Bros. epic about sheepherding Down Under. (After that: "How should I know, but you can bet they'll be after me again") He apparently like the story treat- ment. "I alivays look to see whe- ther there's some "time out for me," he said.

They turn around and re-write the thing so that I'm in every scene, "I'm a luckless child," sigh Robert Mitchum. "Hell, Charli Laughton has been after me to go to Stratford to do something serious. But I haven't done much stage work, and thén, for another thing, I couldn't afford it." An- other deep sigh (and the barest of smiles), then: "I wish they'd leave me alone."

Clothe Pe Mushroom time . .. and we are eating them, gathered from our own acre lot, Whether we are braver or more foolhardy than our neightbours I don't know as most of them say they would be afraid to take a chance. The only ones who make good use of the mushrooms are people who come to this country from Europe. In previous years we have found that Europeans definitely know their mushrooms, So, trusting in their knowledge, we are having mushrooms nearly everyday, fried in butter, spread over toast and topped with a poached egg. It makes a tasty dish. Some we give away. Well, you are now reading the words of a much annoyed wo- man, Trouble is I don't know whether to be annoyed at myself or the weather or both, Anyway all summer I have been promis- ing myself a week 'in Ottawa, visiting friends snd attending a convention. So what happens? A week ago I came out with a beautiful rash which is either . shingles or prickly heat. Which- ever ijt is it has been nearly driv- ing me crazy. Can't sleep at night or settle to anything for very long in" the daytime. Apparently little can be done for it except keep the skin dry with talcum powder, Some years ago I had 1-both prickly heat and shingles --not together, and never such a dose as I have now. So why wouldn't I be annoyed? My only consolation is that it is still hot and humid so the trip might not have 'been too enjoyable under those circumstances. I am telling myself that anyway. Might as well make the best of a bad job. In the meantime we have a little matter here that requires very. special attention. We are living in an area that is- strictly residential but as so often hap- pens there are two vacant lots, presumably house-building lots, waiting for buyers. Imagine our surprise then to get a letter from the local Planning Board saying that a request had been received from a certain party to have Lot -- rezoned from residential to commercial in order that a gén- eral grocery store might be erected and operated on the site, Homeowners are up in arms. After all how much faith can one ._ put in' zoning regulations if they "can 'be changed to suit the con- venience. of anyone who wants to open a store, a gas station or a §nackbar? It just doesn't make sense, However the deal has not yet gone through. Maybe it never # will as-a deputation of irate rate. payers will be attending a meet- ing of the Planning Bogrd to- morrow night. t Admittedly every . Planning Every suburb want§" a 'shopping. centre nice and handy but no one wants «it near his own property. Let it | 0 there. buf riot on 'our road! Farmers, too, before. go here, or they were out for big money on | 'land deals, did 'everything pos- sible to prevent buildings of'any kind coming near them. Very ° rarely could a farmer be per- suaded to sell frontage off "his property. Old timers used to say hang on to your frontage or the value of your farm will be re- : duced by half. But then: sub- dividers came along with_attrac- tive propositions and it didn't take sime farmers long to realise they could make more money in one land deal than they could in years of farming. An so it goes, all over the coun- try, particularly in Ontario. Pret- ty soon even rabbits will have trouble in finding enough room to make a burrow. Suitable sites for summer cottages ave hard to find too and the problem of water pollution is getting worse every day.

We ON, tthe Than vases "Are you sure there'll be no delays on that train?" again, it spread like: a dread contagion. At first,' the Sports- men, mostly Negro, and the Forsyth Street Boys, mostly Puerto Rican, breached a three- year truce to launch a deadly rumble in Manhattan's Lower East Side, Next, violence flared in Brooklyn and: in the Bronx, and in Jamaica, where the Chap- lains, Sinners, Bishops and Chey- ennes fight to the death for "ter- [ ritorial rights."

Two of those 'slain were 16; one, 15, and a girl; one 14. - Among the gang arsenals seized by police in the aftermath were zip guns, switch - blade knives, daggers, blackjacks, chains, lengths of iron pipe, meat 'cleavers, and a swerd cane. Julio Rosairo, 14, vas an ac- tive combatant when war broke out anew between his Forsyth Street Boys and the Sportsmen as the week began. Two days later he died in a hospital, of knife wounds in the back. Theresa Gee was simply getting some {fresh air on a doorstep when one of a fusillade of .22- caliber bullets killed her ins- tantly, Her 17-year-old slayer, leader of the Forsyth Boys, was quickly apprehended and offer- ed only one appalling excuse. "I didn't know I was shooting a girl," he said. to in New York City's intermina- As the week ended, Robert ° Young and Anthony Kerenski, both 16, were sitting with friends on a bench in an unlighted Hell's -- Kitchen playground after a mo- vie, 'wherr the assailants -struck, yelling, "No gringos park." ) Bleeding from stab wounds, Young and Kerenski staggered to the nearby apartments of friends. Both fell dead, as they crossed the, thresholds. An 18- year-old companion, Ewald Ri- emer, stabbed in the abdomen, was rushed to a hospital where 'his condition was listed as s-tis- factosy, Harold Luwen, 16, was treated at a hospital for injuries suffered when he was struck on the head with a botile during the melee.

Even wading cows didn't cause pollution be- cause running water and the creek bottom itself provided a natural filter-bed to purify the water. I am glad our children were able to enjoy the little creek on, our farm to their heart's content. They used to have a wonderful time. Incidentally, just 'recently Bob 'was wander- ing along the creek on our old farm and there was the biggest mud-turtle he had ever seen. Since the farm has been taken over 'by the Department of Highways the unused portion has gone back to nature. No cows or horses -- or humans -- to disturb the peace so the wild creatures from the near- by woods are having a field day. Better make the most of it, you' creatures of t 'wild.
