PRINCESS MARGARET Missing Greetingsrom Her Father Princess Margaret Marks Birthday By MURIEL NARRAWAY LONDON (CP)--A touch of sad- ness shadows the thoughts of Prin- cess Margaret as she celebrates her 22nd birthday today within the granite walls of Balmoral Castle. Presents and greetings were taken to the princess in her suite. But the occasion was different from the happy times spent within the same castle walls when her father was alive. On other birthdays, Margaret eagerly to the breakfast table in search of a familiar card. It con- tained mysterious instructions that would lead her to a present--if she could figure out the message. This first birthday since the King's death marks an intangible but real change in the life of the fun-loving young princess. Since her sister became Queen, Margaret in a sense has been living in "her sister's house." Buckingham Palace and Balmoral are no longer her own homes, "Close as Princess Margaret is to the Queen,"*said a palace rep- resentative, "that makes quite a difference--even to a royal prin- cess." MAY LEAVE CASTLE It is believed that this as much as anything else will take the prin- cess from Balmordl, before the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh leave for London in October. Mar- garet may visit friends in Scotland. There will be no official birthday party today. The Royal Family and guests staying at Balmoral will toast Margaret's health and happi- iness at dinner, followed by an evening of dancing. Still a careful, elegant dresser, the princess now favors a new short hair style with high, cunky curls fitting closely under her tiny half-hats. She has recently used a | darker shade of lipstick and just {a hint of mascara and eye shadow, | lending a further sophistication to jher dark blue eyes. Machine Age Has Liberated Women, Duty Demands Individual Effort OTTAWA (CP) -- Dr. Hilda Neatby, professor of history at the University of Saskatchewan, said yesterday that women's job now seems to be to see themselves as individuals.

CLEVELAND MYERS _ As soon as the child has learned | to talk, he discovers a fascinating | field for satisfying his curiosity. Not only can he continue to ex- plore with feet and hands and eyes, but also with questions he can ask. How fortunate he is then if his parents and all other older persons about him 'are ready and willing to answer his questions. But if they feel®and express irritation over his questions, ridi-|find some practical limitations to cule them or tell him not to ask| so many, he will ask fewer and fewer of them, or none at all. Yet if he has his questions answered, he will think of still more of them, his curiosity will grow. Then by the time he enters the first grade he has a pwwerful motive to learn to read in order to find answers to his-own questions from books.

Many of his ques: tions are too hard for us. We just don't know the answers. We don't like to admit our ignorance and are too lazy to take the trouble to find out. Any child, three, four or five can ask us many questions we can't answer, Just why should we be so stupid as to suppose we should know all the answers? We could, of course, bluff an answer in self-defence. But how could we afford to be so dishonest with a child? Anyway, he will soon fipd us out. Why shouldn't we tell him frankly when we don't know? EASY ESCAPE But once we get ourselves to this level of honesty we are in danger of finding an easy escape by saying,."I don't know." I must have reached this level when, after I had nonchalantly said, "I don't know," to a series of ques- tions by one of our children when he was about five, for he said, "Dad, you don't seem to know anything." Following this shock, I bestirred myself to find the answers to his questions and I began searching in the encyclopaedia, going to the library, even telephoning some ex- perts. Something very good hap- pened while I was doing this. The child indicated great satisfaction observing me and joining with me in the search. Of course, I did the procedure, as any parent can see. FEEL ANNOYED? There are times, of course, when one is so absorbed in other mat- ters which command considerable concentration that one cannot con- sider carefully and promptly every question a child asks. But why should one feel annoyed at a young questioner while one is dressing, cooking, peeling potatoes, mending or making something with tools, or even while eating a meal? How we treat the child when he | asks us questions is a measure of | how completely we appreciate him as a precious person.
