Husband, the Lord and Master LET HUSBAND KNOW HE'S LORD AND MASTER, NOT JUST THE MAN WHO BRINGS PAY TO YOU A husband needs to go off to work, happy and content both mentally and physically, secure in the knowledge that everything is fine at home. Then he can put his heart and mind to his job. Only when his mind is free of worries can he think clearly and quick- Ivy What must [ do to bring this ahout ? I must work towards a happy and successful marriage. If the husband- wife relationship is right, things will usually work out, in spite of the troubles and discouragements that lie | ahead. Here are afew things which I think help toward a happy marriage. Put your husband first. Let him know he is the lord and master of his house, and not just the man that brings home the pay and supports you.

Do not nag and tell your day's troubles as soon as your husband steps in the front door, but greet him with a cheerful smile and a well balanced dinner ready on time. He might say things that ave unfair and hurt, but | poyests. don't forget, a lot of things have hap- pened during the day that you know nothing about, nothing about, and likely he'. is just taking out his discouragement on vou.

Sosa STPERTEST FASTER PICK-UP) Conservation Corner "A warning issued by the Dist- viet Forester, Department of Lands and Forests, Kenora, might well be echoed throughout Ontario at this time. "If," he said, "forest visitors should come across a very young fawn or moose calf, they should leave it strictly alone. Even though' it may leok as if the mo- ther has forgotten or deserted her infants, such is most likely not the case.

This goes for all birds and ani- mals at this time of year. Leave them undisturbed where you find them! Nature does a remarkably good job of caring for her own when man does not interfere. Too, it is most dangerous to mo- lest voung creatures found in the woods. The mother is probably quite close by in te bush... but "at the first S. 0.

More than 800 varieties are known, some of which measure four feet or longer. Others are so small they may be seen only with the aid of a good magnifying glass, Common to most parts of the world, earthworms are famil- much about them. - Best known to Ontario residents are the "night crawlers", some- times called '"dew-worms." The so-called "fecal worms," the kind that throw up 'worm casts" on the lawn and look like smaller bro- thers, make even better bait and are easily cultivated. According to Department of Lands and For- ests conservation officers, any in- terested fisherman .can culture worms for his own use with little effort. Here's how: Simply dig a bed about a foot deep and three feet square, or lar- well-drained location is best. Your old compost bed may make a good site. Spade in the earth mixed with well-rotted manure. Soak a quantity of stale bread in water and spread it on top, then sift over that enough fine dirt to cov- er. Now introduce a number of worms. They will remain, thrive and reproduce so long as you keep the bed damp_but not soaked. Ad- ditional bread, or corn-meal, and vegetable refuse should be added across the top about once a week. Later this summer, when you get angler's itch . . . . just take vour spading fork, turn over a few forkfula of bedding, pick up your worms, put them in a ventilated container with moist spahgnum With the nesting and rearing season for most song birds well | underway, the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests Wildlife Di- inteeference with, Most birds help to keep control of insect populations. killing of, or moss and . . . go fishin'.
