10 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, February 6, 1967 Dear Ann Landers: I was deeply disappointed in your an- swer to the woman who wrote about her Lusband who pre- ferred her silk nighties to his own pajamas. You didn't come right out and say the man was a weirdie, but you made it obvious that you considered him mighty odd, even though his wife stated flatly that there was nothing funny about him. My wife and I are happily married and we have three I have been wearing my wife's girdles for several years and I am not ashamed of it. I wear a girdle because it makes my back feel my I also wear nylons under my wool socks because I need something to hold my gir- lovely children. better and it improves posture, dle down. Itrust you will print this letter in the interest of fairness. I always thought you were open - minded--until. now.-- Dallas Golfer Dear Dallas: I try to be open-minded but signed for males problems lost my support completely. A word of advice to you, old buddy: Don't let the guys in the locker room get a load of your undies or you're going to have a lot more trouble than you need. Dear Ann Landers: I am a widow in my middle 70s and am living on a@ limited budget. The lady next door is very kind and thoughtful. She saves her newspapers and gives them to me the following day. Your col- umn is my favorite feature. ANN LANDERS || Should Society Dictate His Choice Of Apparel? About three times a week I find a big hole in the paper and your column is missing. Yesterday I dropped a broad ye but she didn't get the point. I said, 'What did Ann Landers say today? Someone tore the column out ofthe paper." She replied, "Oh, it was wonderful. I sent it to my mother in St. Petersburg." Would it be in poor taste if I asked my neighbor not to tear that doesn't mean I have holes in my head. I was all set to go along with your girdle, for health reasons, although a surgical corset de- with back would have made more sense. But when I read that bit about the nylons you out your column and promised to return the paper in case she wants to clip You Dear Faithful: I don't feel it would be in good taste to ask your neighbor not to rip things out of her paper. Some people enjoy clipping and sending. In- cidentally, I wonder if your neighbor knows that my column appears in the St. Petersburg Times, one of the country's finest newspapers. A gift sub- | scription to that paper woyld be a superb gift for her mother. Suggest it. Dear Ann Landers: The gen- tleman who wanted to call his wife's new teeth her Christmas gift was no gentleman and it is obvious, Ann Landers, that you have had no experience with dentures. Why didn't you consult your dentist before you suggested that the man give his wife a single rose---and make it 33 gifts in all? He would have told you that there are only 28 teeth in a full set of dentures. Now, aren't you ashamed?~-D.D.S. of Honolulu Dear Dec: Would you believe mortified? Thank you (and about 400 other D.D.S.s for wising me up, and I'll take my punishment. Will you settle for 20 lashes with a piece of dental! floss? | CHILD GUIDANCE Children's Feelings Are Not Motivated By GARRY C, MYERS, PhD Most parents who really care assume that they can teach the young child love and kindness. Parents assume they can teach a child to want to do what is right, by exposing him to per- sons who do right and are kind to others and unselfish. They also assume that, by constant guidance with words and ex- amples, they can practice this child in desirable behavior. Most of these parents believe that the young child can learn from the teacher and other chil- dren in the nursery school, kin- dergarten and early grades of the day school or Sunday school desirable attitudes, feelings and behavior. To my knowledge, no child expert or educator has come forth with statistics or asser- tions to indicate that parents are foolish to suppose young children can be motivated in desirable feelings, attitudes and behavior in the foregoing direc- tions. If anybody did, do you suppose parents would quit try- ing to expose their children to influences they consider whole- some? But if one of these same par- ents complained to a broadcast- ing company about the many sordid programs of violence-- murder, horrer and gore--their young children may watch on TV, they are asked to cite ob- jective proof that such pro- grams can do them harm. EMOTIONALLY UPSET With the air waves at their command, the broadcasting offi- cials, aided and abetted by their access to the public press, millions of parents are told re- peatedly that all is well, that they have nothing to worry about unless they should have a child already emotionally dis- turbed. Suppose these parents were told in like manner that only the good and innocent young child could have wholesome in- fluence by their efforts to teach him in desirable ways. Do you suppose many parents would believe this? How absurd for anyone to maintain a little child could be influenced in desirable ways by what he sees or hears that is wholesome but couldn't be influenced by what he sees or hears that is unwholesome? Then why do so many more parents seem to believe the for- mer than the latter? One big difference is in the use of the alr waves. Silent on the former, they are forever busy at repeat- ing the latter, Yet these air waves belong to the public. Doesn't plain common sense|® lead us to suppose that any- thing a child sees or hears af- fects him in some way? When Professor William Jones, back|! at the beginning of this century|® said, "No impression without expression," didn't this state- ment make sense? Just as we parents don't wait for proof that our children can be influenced through what they see and hear toward desirable ideals and behavior, why should we wait for proof that they can be influenced toward indesir- able ideals and behavior? PARENTS' QUESTIONS Q. Is it better for a child to enter kindergargen a few months before the legal age or to enter a year later? A. If a child has good health and is reasonably rugged, think he should go a little early than a little late, as a rule, something?-- Faithful Reader When I can Get PLANNING National Day Lady Gotz, wife of New Zealand's High Commission- |New Zealand's OTTAWA --- Home is out there in the Pacifie Ocean more than 10,000 miles away. But behind the doors of the comfortable Rockcliffe Park residence of New Zealand's high commissioner to Canada, the mood of a homeland far away is in the air--literally. Today, February 6, is that day, when New Zealand hospi- tality moves from the high commission residence to the more ample quarters of Otta- wa's venerable Rideau Club on the doorstep of Parliament, Hill. Here. Sir Leon and Lady Gotz each year celebrate New Zea- land Day with some 500 dis- tinguished guests -- members of the + gerd corps, Otta- wa frien government offi- cials and New Zealand na- tionals. February 6, the commemora- tion of the 1840 'Treaty of Waitangi -- by which the Maoris came under British protection -- offers Lady Gotz an ideal opportunity to plan tempting lamb treats for her many guests. A favorite na- tional day hors d'oeuvre is lamb cocktail snacks. The recipe, modified to serve 30 guests, follows. LAMB COCKTAT!. SNACKS (Serves 30) 6 Ibs. spring lamb leg slices (% inch thick) 1% cups firmly-packed brown sugar i tsp. ground ginger tbsp, soy sauce a, -- pine We = fine ketchup tsp. salt tbsp. medium white wine thsp. cornstarch tbsp.: water Trim fat and bene and cut lamb in bite-size pieces. Brown lightly on all sides in small amount of hot fat and drain fat. Combine sugar, ginger, soy sauce, juice, ketchup and salt and wine. Pour over lamb and heat to boiling. Reduce heat and cover, simmer until lamb is tender, stirring occa- sionally. Remove lamb and keep hot. Combine cornstarch and water and stir into mixture in pan. Stir until thickened and cooked. Serve very hot, sauce separately and lamb on attrac- tive cocktail picks. If desired add a small amount of lemon juice to taste. AS A HOSTESS An omnivorous reader who modestly submits that she has "no special talents," Lady Gotz last summer was voted one of the ten most beautiful women in "official Ottawa, in a story which appeared in newspapers across the country. Drawing up his list of the best- looking "dolls who grace the Big Scene", the writer chose San "er to Canada, plans Day, Marked By Ottawa High Commissioners Lady Gotz for her elegant good looks and fashion sense . . . "and she adds a Common- wealth touch, to boot." Lady Gotz says she finds satisfaction in the careful plan- ning of the parties she and Sir Leon host -- every detail from guest lists to floral arrange- ments to menus. Words like "flair" and "'originality" spring to mind when one recalls the many social events -- whether official receptions for several hundred or an intimate din- ner party for 10 or 12 guests-- held by Sir Leon and Lady Gotz since their arrival in Can- ada in April, 1965. Sir Leon, a retired politician, former New Zealand minister of internal affairs, and his wife are tireless and articulate spokesmen their island country. While her husband handles the formal diplomatic duties of New Zealand's Ottawa . mis- sion, Lady Gotz concentrates on the aspects of diplomacy she knows best. "We usually give one or two dinner parties each week," she said, thought- fully easing into the chair in the brary of her residence. On the desk heside Lady Gotz, a photo of a miling Sir Leon and Her Majesty Queen Eliza- beth beamed down on an un- opened stack of morning mail. The charming photograph is a souvenir of the Royal Tour of New Zealand in 1962 when Sir Leon, then minister of the in- terior, and Lady Gotz were almost constant companions and hosts to the Queen and Prinee Philip. It's no surprise that the woman who says that her "great interest is being with my husband," prefers dinner parties with mixed groups to luncheons. "We also like to keep the group small enough for good conversation," empha- sized Lady Gotz. In typical New Zealand fash- ion, the dinner menu at the high commission invariably offers something from home to tempt the guests. A favorite with Lady Gotz is roast leg of New Zealand Lamb -- served hot or 'as cold euts for buffet-style dinners. Lady Gotz, who does of cooking when I have the time," roast stuffed lamb: ROAST STUFFED LEG OF LAMB for leg of spring (6 to 8 servings) 1 (7 Ib.) leg of lamb 1 clove of garlic 1_ teaspoon salt ¥% teaspoon pepper 1 tablespoon soft butter Y% teaspoon powdered ginger 1 tablespoon lemon juice dee tails for New Zealand's Na- tional Day reception in the study of the high commis- sion residence on Crescent Road, in Ottawa's Rock- cliffe Park.

Roast as usual (1% te 2 hours) in a slow aven. During the last 15 minutes glaze the top with currant jelly. For variety, Lady Gotz some- times decorates the platter with halved peaches, parsley and mint. To complete the din- ner, add a tossed green salad, halved beets, preserved water- melon rind, new minted pota- toes and perhaps green peas or tiny green beans and you "a lot} | offers this recipe for| have a marvellous dinner for eight, Lady Gotz noted with a ismile. LAMB SHISK KEBOB But one needn't stop there with spring lamb. There are dozens of ways to prepare lamb -- all of them palate- tempting. 'That's the best part, It's so versatile to cook," added Lady Gotz. However, the piece de resis- tance of lamb treats is lamb shish kebab style. Ottawa gourmets, diplomats and politicians still recal] the ay, 1966, lamb barbecue "Happening" at the New Zear land High Commission. The barbecue 'Happening' turned inte a spontaneous affair -- every bit as creative as a "happening" in an art gallery where guest "artists'" paint in- stant "abstract'"' canvasses. The New Zealand barhecue "Hap- pening" brought forth the same sort of creativity among the guests. But in this case, the |work of art 'was lamb - a la shish kebab.

This 'worthwhile personality trait became evident in her girl- hood ambition to prepare for a nursing career. After her mar- riage, it displayed itself just as strongly when she took on as one of her odd jobs the practice of meeting refugee boats and greeting incoming passengers. Eventually, this outgoing quality landed Monique an inter- esting job as hostess for the city of Montreal. 'This was a stepping stone to her present assignment as chief hostess for Expo 67, the giant world expo- sition in Montreal! that will run from April 28 to Oct. 27. "I started working as a host- ess for the city ef Montreal after my husband died," Mo- nique said. "When I first became a widow, I went to Europe to live for a while. On fhe way home, I met a friend who said, 'We must find you a husband.' Since T wasn't in the market for a husband, I countered with 'find me @ job.' To my surprise, my friend announced that she knew of one that was opening up with the city ef Montreal." Once Monique learned the city job was connected with meeting and greeting people, she applied for it and got it. But on the day she began this work, she heard about Expo 67, high commission resounded to the hum of competition as the distinguished guests speared ehunks of tomatoes, green pep- pers, onions, tiny potatoes, apricots and, of course, char- coal broiled spring lamb, fash- joning leng shish kebab swords into proud examples of culin- ary artistry. Nothing quite like the lamb barbecue "Happening" had ever "happened" in Ottawa diplomatic circles. It was truly a night to remember - when informality and the special Gotz brand of hospitality reigned supreme at the New Zealand high commission.
