Few of us, Dr. Forsham observed, get tired as a result of hard physical labor anymore, "except for woodchoppers and people like that." And even when we experience fatigue under natural circumstances- such as right after a meal- there may not be much we can do about itr'If you lived in a primitive culture," he noted, "you could lie on the grass, sleep for 10 minutes and wake up refreshed. But with the kind of lives most of us lead today, we can't do this very often." Ever wonder why you're weary? It might be the world you live in, the state of your health, your age, your outlook on life, or any combination of these, ac- cording to Dr. Peter For- sham, professor of medicine at the University of California. And, he adds, women are sometimes more susceptible than men. Dr. Forsham noted that the causes of fatigue are often more mental than physical. He singled out the stresses and strains of everyday living as a primary cause. "I'm absolutely convinced," he declared, "that the constant ex- citement, stimulation, ups and downs, schedules and timetables in our society result in a very fatiguihg kind of life." A factor in fatigue that's physical and psychological too, the doctor reported, is These flaky biscuits with the mellow, almost rust-like flavor of imported Holland cheese make an ideal hot bread for lunch or dinner. With a little ingenuity the tempting biscuits can be turned into a gem of a coffee ring for the coffee-hour or tea-time. _ HOLLAND CHEESE BISCUITS 1-112 cups shredded im- ported Holland Edam or Gouda 16 OZ.) 2 cups all-purpose flour 4 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons sugar '2 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons butter or margarine These flaky biscuips (top of photo) with the mellow, FROM n fl n TORONTO $207 $207 $104=I$518 FROM n n I n 20mm” TORONTO $207 $207 $104 $104=| tWil $190 XA-- Fi, Comparative fares to Britain The above Imps quoted are basic saw Husband WHe p Chumpn Eireri 7Favel agency Hu‘band. wo l (3M6 Women tire more than men BOAC "Book Ahead" 742-6021 M1: if 2995 ISL/NGTON AVENUE NUMBER SUMMIT PLAZA Determining the origins of fatigue, Dr. Forsham noted, is not a simple matter. "To know if the causes are mental or physical, it's essential to get the patient's background straight," he declared. He said he looked for certain clues when taking a medical history. "It a woman wakes up tired in the morning and gets wearier as the day goes by--so that she's virtually incapable of "growing older." Wornetr- particularly during menopause-are more subject to "ups and downs" and therefore more prone to weariness, he said. Many, he observed, have hot flashes, "feel miserable and become exceedingly nervous." (Physicians often prescribe estrogen replacement therapy to alleviate such menopausal symptoms- which are attributed to a deficiency of females hor- mones.) Dr. Forsham maintained that prescribing small amounts of estrogen continually can also coun- teract some effects of the aging process. Movie buffs who just adore Clint Eastwood are in for a treat.

If, on the other hand, a woman wakes up weary and feels livelier as the day progresses-when she's using up her energy and should be getting more tired-this could suggest something else. "It could suggest," the doctor declared, "that her problems are more mental than physical." Make biscuit dough as in above recipe.

In a precise, controlled performance they confront each other. The gunfight that ensues is a masterpiece of im, provisational explanation. The one actor who is wounded clutches his mutilated arm and screams. Corn bread was baked daily in an iron bake pot and cookies were made on an iron griddle. Gifts were practical and homemade, such as warm mittens and socks, and the father might Whittle a small toy for his children. Probably the only Christmas decoration was a small tree hung with apples, following the old German custom. In order to put these Christmas activities in perspective, visitors should remember that the modern day conception of a pioneer-style Christmas - complete with a lavish groaning board - applied to only a few wealthy city residents and did not become commonplace until late Victorian times. This con- cept does not apply to the simpler lives of the Black Creek residents. For example, in the set. tler's first log cabin, Christmas was merely a break in the struggle for survival through the long cold winter. The settlers who were of Pennsylvania- German origin, did all their cooking on the open hearth of the fireplace, and meat - hopefully a wild goose for Christmas - was cut up and stewed in the large, iron, gypsy pot. The settler's second house at Black Creek shows the tremendous progress made by the settlers by the period of 1832.

Four of the village houses, as well " the school inn and church, will be used to point out the differences in preparations and decorations which resulted from the settlers’ varied ethnic origins, religions, and varying degrees of social status and prosperity. mu now taking'place at l.89fttk “war “We This exciting sequence is Magnum titr ChrM- Christmas cand Billy the Kid rides again just a small scenario of the work of the Young People's Theatre student company.

At present, they are rehearsing on weekends and after school but the eventual program will have students out of school for three weeks, including a two week touring period. As well as working with a professional director, the company has also had the advantage of working in the professional environment of the St. Lawrence Centre. They were able to see a dress rehearsal ot Galileo, an opening night performance of What the Butler Saw, as well as use the rehearsal stage and other facilities of the centre. Homemade gifts of pomanders and fancy cakes accompany store-bought presents such as dolls, a rocking horse and silk yard goods.
