It 'is really only tact and com- mon sense; with a little effort you can lighten his mood, make him conscious of yourself and .the children and keep him _ in a Nirvana of content. The fact that he comments on the fun they have in the of- fice indicates, to my mind, how lightly he takes it. If he were. guilty of philandering, it is not likely he'd 'mention it at all, Instead of doubting him, and imagining evil where no evil exists, be a trusting witout best protection is to takeé it for granted that he is entirely loyal to you, and letting him know: you think so. Many a suspicious wife has driven her man- to intidelity by sowing the seeds-- in his mind. --J know that caring for small children and a home is an ex- hausting and often a dull job. But a wife has to create an atmosphere of pleasantness and even galety in the home; if you will spend more effort on\this angle you will find your' hus- band more like the man who courted you, and a closer com- panion than he has been. I don't know of any attitude that brings richer rewards. I wish I could devote this whole column today to your problem, but these ideas will help you if you weigh them practically and seriously. * * » A suspicious wife can change a loyal husband into an unfaithful one; -it takes a cad to betray a trusting wife . . .

J { . strong nylon * are using nylon FEATS a in] IN AL Ia at a s Seams That Don't Rip More important than sewing a fine seam is sewing a strong one. This means that sewing end should 'be at least as strong as the fibre in the fabric, Then, seams and hems will last for the life. of the garment. ~~ y Nylon garments sewn with nylon thread will give better satisfaction because the thread and the fabric are equal in strength, By matching thread to fabric, there is little danger of fibres cutting weaker threads and causing seams to pop. Nylon thread also dries at the same rate as nylon .. fabrics. This eliminates the .pos- sibility of mildew and deteriora- tion if the thread happens to be still damp when the garment is stored. There are a few tips home sewers can pick up from garment manufacturers. An increasing number of these Canadian firms : thread on all types of fabrics to reduce the number of returns due to seam failures. ~ Size for size, nylon thread is three times as strong as the thread most of them used in the past, and is between three and four times more elastic. This elasticity; they found, prevents seams at armholes and other points of strain from splitting open, It gives garments made of stretchy materials, - like jersey and crepe, stretchy seams too. _ The thread's extra strength keeps buttons from falling off and- going astray, Ln Manufacturers -have also learn- ed that the semi-transparency of nylon thread cuts down on the number of colors they previous- ly had to stock. Although the thread - is available in some 40 colors, it isn't always necessary to spend time and pennies care- fully matching spool to fabric. For instance, a spool of white + nylon thread may 'blend well enough with a pastel fabric to save a trip to the store. Or a left-over spool in one shade of green may. match up beautifully with material of a lighter or deeper tone of green. Nylon thread is different from | others and requires slightly dif- ferent sewing. techniques,- When sewing by hand, a shorter length of thread will help overcome tangling. Nylon thread should always be cut with a pair of scissors. It can be broken by tugging hard, but this method will stretch the thread and may cause the seam to pucker when the thread relaxes. When using the sewing machine, adjust needle and bobbin threads to low tensions just as the operators of power machines do when they stitch men's suits or women's dresses. When sewing a stronger seam, the home dressmaker usually winds up with a finer one. This is due to fibres strength, which . permits use of much finer threads. : id RR) SEI St Yes!

I was puzzled. "What happened "to the milk this morning?" I ask- ed Partner, "there's hardly any cream on it 'at all." Partner thought for a minute and then; 2 he answered, "Well, I guess Xr: "must have brought you Mrs: May's milk." Mrs.- May was the: cow that freshened about ten'~| days ago. So -that started me-- - thinking--about the way Mother Nature has of keeping a nice bal- ance, when permitted to do so. What I am saying will not be news to farm folk but it. may surprise a few others. It's this way. Baby calves are much the same as other babies-- ~ milk for them must not be too rich or digestive trouble follows. A cow cannot make up specidl formulas or dilute qver-rich milk, so in her- case Mother Nature takes over and provides the cow with milk that is low in butter- fat content--in other words, it is just right for a baby calf. As the. calf gets older the mother's milk ~--gets richer, "Not only that but the normal lactation period for a cow is nine to ten months -- Just long enough to give the calf. a good start in life, or until such time as it can eat hay, oats or ° grass, That was an ideal arrange- ment in the days when cattle roamed at will and bred. and, raised families 'according to the laws of nature. Now, however, ! - the cow is-a milk-producing ma- chine, so the farmer has to space the arrival of calves and thus prevent too many cows from freshening 'at approximately the same time. If he 'doesn't, down: - goes the butterfat content 'in -every. eight gallon can of milk, and that means a lower milk ' price to the farmer. 5 It is queer, too, the way fash- jons change even in regard to milk, Time was when dairies would advertise 'rich, creamy Jersey milk." Now that same milk is recognized as being too 'rich for. young children and too fat- tening for adults. ' Skim milk, that -we wouldn't have put on our tables years ago, is now con- sidered as ideal for invalids, ul- cers, reducers and elderly folk. Speaking: of elderly folk . . . we had the grandest W.I. meet- ing last week at our County Home * for the Aged. There were 23 elderly ladies and about 35 W.L . "Better buy two rings, dear, If, Jhings go wrong, we Rash have a souvenir Rg . members present. Our program was arranged to give pleasure to our guests, although we had our business session as usual. Busi- ness over, we served refresh- ments--tea, sandwiches and little tarts, Several of the ladies ex- claimed with delight, "My, but that was a good cup of tea!" Tea was followed by a short program. One of our ladies, who has--a lovely, mellow voice, sang sev- eral songs--old time favourites-- and I noticed several old: ladies furtively wiping an eye as they listened to the closing number, ~ "When I grow too old to dream: Another W.I. member gave a - humorous recitation that provok: ed a good deal of laughter. There was also community singing and "a roll call, It being close to St. Valentine's Day, each member, as her name was called, got up and presented a valentine to the lady whose name was giyen to her. One dear old lady got up and- thanked our W.I. members "for the lovely afternoon you have given us," I imagine the little speech was quite impromptu and Obviously sincere. We just loved t. If our. elderly guests were happy we were too, knowing we had brought a little change and brightness to them for two short hours--and two hours at a time is plenty long enough. ~ Halton Centennial Manor fis - one of the newest and most up- to-date homes for the aged in the provinces. Those who live there | are well-fed and well-cared for, That day every room was com- fortably warm, although it was "to remember: Elderly people in this and other homes must con- form to-certain rules and regula-. tions.

It is: this monotony that friends, re- .latives and organizations can do much to alleviate." Old. people : crave to be remembered, to know | _ zero outside. Yet: there {is this | ¢ that someone. cares, little atten="| tions to make them feel they still "belong"'--to their families and their communities--to prevent that out-of-date idea of stigma at- taching to living in a home for the aged. Lo To those who take the trouble to visit the old folk it may even be as bread upon the waters, for many of our elderly citizens have charm, dignity and wisdom that comes only in the sunset years of a full and useful life. .
