But when we are a help and when we are a hindrance is often divided by a very thin line. Here's one letter on that sub- ject. "I wish you'd write a column to tell a girl of 15 that she's far too young afd inexperienced to know for sure what vocation she wants to follow," pleads the writer of this letter. "As a parent, this is problem I face, because my daughter of - 15 is set on one vocation. In fact, she has been interested in everything connected with that ever since she was a little girl, and I suppose she'd be good at it, too, judging by her school * work. "But, at the same time, both my husband and I think she's far too young to know what she really wants, And, besides, nei- ther of us wants her to settle . on her current career choice anyhow. There are other job fields we'd like much better. But she won't even listen to us. "Don't you think she's far too young to know what she wants _ for a future job?" Actually timetables for know- ing what to do vocationally are hard to. set for everybody. Some people find career in- terests early. late But many people become suc- cessful who have indicated at an early age what they want to do with their lives. Auto pioneer, Henry Ford, for instance, began showing an in- terest in developing his mechan- ical and building ability several years before he reached his teens. In fact, he had learned 60 much about the mechanics of clocks and' watches that, at age 10, he was already earning money repairing them. By the time Ford was 12, he moved on to bigger things and persuaded his teacher to let him organize the building of a forge in the school playground. At 14, he designed and supervised the building of a dam across a stream. And by then, he also began to show his executive ability, because he bossed the project while his friends gath- ered the material and built the dam. Finally, at 16, Ford took a part-time job -as an assistant mechanic and decided at this point that he would like to work on steam engines, or something similar, for the rest of his life. Judging by the history that follows, Ford wasn't too young to decide. And other youngsters now in their teens may be old enough, too, if aptitudes and in- terests keep their minds on a Others find them cial time spent. WESTMOUNT U.C.W. Tuesday evening the regular meeting of the Westmount Unit- ed Church Women. was held in the Sunday school auditorium. Mrs. Percy Neal, president, wel- comed the members and the guests, Westmount CGIT and leaders Mrs. Gordon Wherry and Mrs. F. A. Gravelle.

She walks already, says a few words and. is a darling child. My wife's parents are fine, intelligent people in their early 50s. When we invite them to our home they are cordial but we have never been invited to their home for a meal. Not once have they picked up our child or played with her, They show no interest in their other three grandchildren either. Last week I was so hurt. by their actions I asked my mother-in-law for an explana- tion. She said, "We raised our children, educated them and now we are through. We want nothing to do with baby sitting or diapers. We have earned peace and quiet and we want to spend our leisure time with our friends." Is something mins with them or is it us?--! Dear B.W.D.: Did you ask your mother-in-law to do: dia- pers or sit with your child? If you did and she refused I would not criticize her. But in-laws who have never picked up a grandchild do not sound normal to me. Such a lack of warmth is beyond be- lief. These people are to be pitied because they are miss- ing life's sweetest rewards. Dear Ann Landers: When are going to assert themselves and receive the credit they deserve? If I tell my husband at din- ner that I have had a hard day he says, '"'Doing what? I wish I could stay home and loaf Sheri Yuill and Miss Kathy Cobb were in charge of the devotional period. Mrs. Wherry spoke on the purpose. of stew- ardship in the church. Mrs. Neal conducted the busi-| ness. Plans were made for the spring shower of fashions to be held in the church auditorium February 24. The date of the fall bazaar was set for November bers were reminded of World's Day of Prayer to be held March 5 at St. George's Memorial Church and a preview of coming catering events was given. around like you do." One evening I said something Cool Grandparents Deny Themselves Love about 'our money' and he yelled, "What do you mean our money? When did you last earn a dime?" If it weren't for the children I'd chuck it all and go back to work so I could have a few dollars to call my own. My husband makes me feel like a beggar. Whenever he hands me a few dollars he makes. such a big deal out of it you'd think I was a charity case. Several months ago a friend of mine had a nervous break- down. My husband said, "What did she have to worry about? She had a beautiful home, a nice husband, three swell kids and no job!" Say something, will you? I'm hing Dear Frothing: The housewife is either the best-paid or the worst-paid woman in the world, depending on the man she' 8 married to. If her husband is an ignorant, insensitive slob (like yours) she is the worst-paid. If her hus- band is a_ thoughtful, under- standing guy (like mine) she's the best-paid. Dear Ann Landers: Regarding the vexed veterinarian who cri- ticized you for calling him a "Vet"': When my wife and I lived in London, we always took our dog to a you-know-what in Kensing- ton. It was an embarrassingly posh establishment. The waiting room was filled with chauffeurs and pedigreed pooches. Among the patients were the King's (now Duke of Windsor) Corgis. We paid our bill in guineas (and that's real money). No one ever thought of calling-the man any- thing but a vet and he didn't mind at all.
