You'd be sur- prised the places we can't go. Too many stairs--narrow pas- sageways. Everything must be checked in advance to avoid inconvenience and embarrass- ment to others. We had one child before my husband got polio and we have had two since. You wouldn't believe the questions I've been asked. And, yes, some people have been cruel and highly critical, but I have learned to be patient and: forgiving. What they don't know is that we are trying to live as normal a fam- ily life as we can. It has been said that God never sends a heavier burden than we can bear, and I believe it. When my husband tells me he is the luckiest man in the world because he has me, my heart melts. I know what it is to be loved and I wouldn't trade my life for any other.--Wife of an Invalid.

And for Pearl, an accomplished harpist, this viewpoint has brought many chances. One job opportunity, for ex- ample, keeps her busy as the harpist in the otherwise all- male CBS orchestra in which she plays, on a regular basis for the Ed Sullivan, Jackie Gleason and Arthur Godfrey shows for Lamp Unto My Feet, for Look Up and Live and 'for Around the Corner and Camera Three. Another job opportunity keeps Pearl Chertok on the go teach- ing the harp to a wide range of students. And still a third op- portunity has her giving con- certs like her recent one in Carnegie Hall, as well as those she continuously gives in hos- pitals, mental institutions and reformatories.

'But this is the life I love, and I be- lieve you must love what you're doing in order to build a ca- reer." | Pearl herself has loved the |harp since the day, as a very small child, she heard a dra- matic reading of Edna St. Vin- Harp Weaver. "I was brought up in Laconia, New Hampshire," she said, "and all through my childhood my mother used to take me to all the concerts and dramatic me a small fortune.

Today's story is from the grandmother whose teen - age granddaughter said: "Grandma you have the pretiest shape I ever saw!" She sent the infor- mation along with a full meas- ure of inspiration. Here it is. "Grandmothers, don't wait another minute! Start a protec- tive reducing diet so you can enjoy a new life full of bounce and energy. Think of the day you will be shopping for new clothes to fit your perfect fig- ure. You'll purr with pleasure while making your selection-- among the misses sizes. "First, see yur doctor. Tell him of your earnest desire to reduce and improve your health. He will give you a cal- orie chart and a protective diet plan. My doctor put me on 1,200 calories a day. To lose the last 15 pounds, I lowered calories to 1,000 a day. "My usual breakfast: One whole orange or half grapefruit --the fruit is more filling than the juice; one poached egg; three slices of unsalted whole wheat melba toast, with a half pat of margarine and a trickle of honey and black coffee. Later I switched to caffeine-free cof- fee as coffee made me nervous. I wanted to enjoy every minute of this challenging adventure. VARIGO PROTEINS "IT had my big meal in the mid-afternoon, I varied the pro- tein--a most serving of lean meat, broiled chicken, fish or shellfish--crabmeat, oysters or shrimp. I had three vegetables --a half cup each -- always choosing one green or yellow. (Avoid corn, peas and lima beans.) With salad I had sea- soned vinegar, or yogurt or but- had gelatin, fresh fruit or fruit tapioca. "Here are the 'bad guys'-- steer clear of them: baked beans, macaroni, spaghetti, gravy, all baked goods, avo- cado, cream, cream dressing, ice cream, whole milk, potato chips, corn chips, salted nuts, soft drinks, alcohol and choco- late. "Regard these weight-makers as the killjoys that keep you from reaching your goal, and the temptation to eat them wanes. Soon you won't want them. "Think of the thrill that will be yours!

Pearl started taking lessons-- and couldn't stay away from the harp. "I loved the instrument so much," she said, "that while I was going to school, I'd do any- thing, right or wrong, in order to get home to play the harp. CLIMBED OUT WINDOW "I'd take out garbage at school, for instance, and then continue on my way till I got home to the harp. Or I'd climb out of classroom windows when the teachers and students were Through Dedication, Hard Work "Like many harpists, I have) cay) cent Millay's The Ballad of the) Finds Success solo, recitals and chamber music in museums and librar- ies,"' she said. "Later, when the Ed Sullivan show made its debut 18 years ago, I got a job playing for that, and I've been a staff musician for CBS ever since. "I think you must love what you're doing in order to get anywhere. And I also think that in music or any other field you have to give your interest your all. You can't just dabble around."

An older child in the family or the neighborhood may be in- duced to take an interest in this child's speech and find even better ways than you can at helping her speak more plainly. Sometimes while you are talk- ing with her companionably you might say distinctly a word she utters indistinctly. She might then like to watch your lips and mouth as you do or watch her own mouth in a mirror as she tries to say this word clearly. It is important that you don't cause this child to feel shy and self-conscious about her speech. Of course, you should not scold her or disapprove of her speech.
