I think this is about the only way you can overecome your bad habit of extravagance. 1 would be happy to hear how you make out. Best of luck! Have you ever wished you had somebody who could make you over? Make one more interesting or more knowledgeable. Maybe give your personality a new sparkle? Or just make you more aware of the world around you? Well, that is how T feelâ€" maybe it is the weather â€"â€" but I would like to be different from the mousey person I am. What can be done about me ? HOW To GET THERE! Dear Sally Unfortunately we cannot change in an instant, but we can be changed. Or, to use a better word, developed. Each of us have been given special abilities and talentsâ€"many that we take for granted . . . or don‘t even recognize. Just think how changed we would be if we made the most of all of them. Why not go to a charm school, or take Dear "Plain Jane" a modelling class. It is wonderful how some people attending such classes turn out. Or go to university night classes and take journalism or short story writing. First thing you know you will be filled with such imagination that you will be a new person. Cheer up, we all get these down in the mouth feelings. Just try some of the above, and see how it works. But first of all go to a good hair stylist, and get your hair made over; get a facial; buy a new hat; all these things do something wonderful to your morale. I wish you luck. _ Water wings and similar plastic toys are a great danger to the young swimmer. Using them, the child is tempted beyond his depth with only the protection of a plasâ€" tic toy which is easily punctured.

Sally Scott Sally Scott. Plain Jane. 1 would like to get something off my chest â€"and I don‘t mean a bra that has shrunk in the wash. I am getting gorged to the gills with adults and teenagers who ery loud and long that it‘s no wonder that teenagers are confused and conâ€" fusing, since they are fed nothing but lies and hypocrisy. The inference always is that teenagers would be delightfully different if only we adults who surround them were decént, honest human, beings. The latest public spasm of this kind was contained in a recent column by Richard Needham of "The Sphere and Postal Service" (whose work T generally enjoy), in which he mourns the death of a waitress friend and compares her, a genuine and honest human being, with big business men and politicos and other slobs who have all lost their real selves by selling their souls to big business and politics. He says . . . "I like spontaneity, simplicity, sincerity ; I guess this is why I kick around so much with the teenagers and university students. They‘re new in the world, they haven‘t yet built a wall around themselves or put on a mask, they haven‘t yet learned the arts of hypocrisy and deception. For the moment at least, they‘re honest and that leaves them a bit bewildered . . . phonies to left of them, phonies to right of them, feeding them lies and mush and doublétalk, and how well they know it!" On a bloody bike, if I may make a polite interjection, Mr. Needham. § Wherever two or three are gathered together (as my clerical friends might say), you get hypocrisy and deceit (just as you get perspiration and ordure) ; it‘s part of the} human condition and sometimes is motivated by kindness: and good intentions. What do you mean by hypocrisy an.v-‘ way? The teenage beauty contestant who cries when she‘s awarded first prize and tells the reporters, "I never thought I‘d win â€" all the other girls were much prettier." She doesn‘t meant it, but is she being hypocritical or kind to the losers? There is hypocrisy and deceit in any social setâ€"up (that means, any place and situation where you get people living and working together, and not only in big business and the ;labyrinth of government). It‘s part of what we call civilizaâ€" tion, which also covers hot baths and good manners, two ‘ other items which the younger generation doesn‘t have much use for. Okay, okay, so I‘m generalisingâ€"I know teenagers iwho are so clean and polite, it‘s nerveâ€"racking because you keep wondering when they‘re going to revert to what now }passes for normal. But the point is that there isn‘t more hypocrisy, deceit and mush about for contemporary teenagers to slog through â€" there is less for this generation to inherit than for at least the last ten generations, which is one reason why our social and moral climate is so turbulent. If you think you‘ve got it tough, kiddies, you should have seen some of lthe adult propaganda, especially concerning morals and religion, which confronted my generation as it went to war. But there‘s nothing like a long, agonizing war for making you think clearly, if you survive to think, that is. It‘s not just our shaggy sons and daughters and their friends who are singlehandedly carrying on this revolution this cutting away of sham, this passionate caring for people and causes remote from our own lives. We‘re going it togethâ€" er, us in our small corner and you in yours. And remember, we old fogies started this present ferment. Of course, we were younger in those days, like you, we dreamed of righting the world. We didn‘t achieve it and you won‘t, but every little bit helps. Don‘t stop trying just because you can‘t winâ€"but of course you don‘t know that yet, and at eighteen, we too were immortal and unstoppable. A generation far removed in time from us will reap the benefits of all our fumbling, bumbling efforts in the right direction, but this won‘t be a comfort to you either. Of course, we stuffy adults don‘t have as much time as you do to walk in protest parades or kick policemenâ€"some of us have got to work, you know. And your turn will come. If you think I say this with a certain faint malice, you‘re damn right. I love my family, but I get tired at the prospect of working to support them until I‘m in my fiftieeâ€"and so will you. But I painted myself into this corner and so will you, my friend, so will you. Of course, I know what Mr. Needham and his cohorts really rail against; the adults who maintain a double standâ€" ard, one for themselves and one for their teenagers. The father who preaches purity and honestyâ€"while he fiddles with his secretary and keeps a double set of books. The mother who refuses to face reality, who never takes an obâ€" jective look at herself or children. Mentally dishonest adults. Complacent, selfâ€"satisfied adults. Neverâ€"onâ€"Sunday adults. Well, I don‘t like them either, but they don‘t comprise the whole middleaged population. We‘re not all like that; some of us are quite decent chaps really. Some of us have been known to speak the truth for two whole days at a time. Some of us walk about unmasked, presenting ourselves to the world au natural, as it were. Some of us are reasonable human beings. Come Richard, it‘s just as foolish to claim that teenâ€" agers are always right, are always the only honest, sincere and spontaneous people, as it is to claim those same virtues for all adults, in perpetuity. Like Richard Needham, I prefer to be with people who are honest and sincere, whatever their ages, although there are other virtues too; but unlike him, I don‘t want to spend most of my time with teenagers and university students. They can be fun, they can be stimulating, but the people I most enjoy are intelligent, articulate, wellâ€"read, liberalâ€" minded adults with a strong sense of humour and something lovely that no teenager has acquired. Compassion. HAPPY BIRTHDAY QUEENSWAY HOSPITAL!

She was attired in a dress of pale yellow linen, and carried a cascade bouquet of pale yellow carnations. Glenn Jackson was the best man. Following the ceremony, a reâ€" ception was held in the Paris Room of the Skyline Hotel. To receive for the bride, her mother wore a soft beige and pink silk suit and a pink sweetheart rose corsage. To assist in receiving guests, the mother of the groom chose a yellow silk suit with navy blue accessories and a corsage of pale yellow carnations. A honeymoon wedding trip to the Muskokas was on the agenda for the bride and groom.

An exhibition of student art will be on display at the Eatonville Branch, Etobicoke Township Public Library, 430 Burnhamthorpe Road (one block east of Hwy. 27) from August 2 â€" 27. The students of the Art Option are given a course which, it is hoped, leads them in a logical manner to a greater understanding of art and develops in them a facility to create works of art. This exhibit has been prepared by Mr. Joseph Cassels, the school Art Instructor, Students‘ work begins in Grade 9 with the use of pencil, pen and ink wash. At the very end of the year they learn some of the aspects of colour. Grade 10 is basically a year to study and experiment with colour.. The media most often used is tempera and watercolour. They are introduced at the end of this year to the principles of texture.

In Grade 12 the problems become more complex in design, but fewer in number. All of the media and techniques are utilized in a more advanced fashion.
