PLANTS NEED FOOD Plants, like animals, must have food if they are to grow and flour- ish. If the soil has been properly prepared, the food supply will last a long time, but a little fertilizer once a month will keep the plants in good condition. For a six-inch pot, use one-third of a teaspoonful of a complete plant food. Sprinkle it on the earth around the side of the pot, well away from the plant. Use fertilizer sparingly, strictly ac- cording to directions on the pack- age. FOR THE HANDYMAN An old doll carriage can be re- modelled at small cost to delight a little girl. Strip the old fabric from the carriage frame. Then use it as a pattern to cut a new cover from the colourful plastic coated fabric sold by the yard in depart- ment and handicraft supply stores.

Plus many more patterns to send for-- including ideas for gifts, home Financially Independent Widow Challenges Columnist's View with her younger married daughter and son-in-law, and makes a house- hold drudge of herself. The young couple pays board and apparently doesn't lift a hand to help. You suggest that their very presence may be an implicit boon to the mother--""as elderly persons need, above all, to feel needed by some- body, and to have a framework of routine in which they are more or less running the show." 1 consider myself qualified to challenge this view. My case is sim- ilar to hers. I an a widow, 57-- an average person-- living alone with my younger daughter, 19. My eldex daughter and son are mar- ried, have their own families and are very good to me--as are their in-laws. I love all three of my chil- dren, haven't neglected them and don't regret having them. But be- lieve me, after the youngest is married I shall see that she doesn't live with me. KEEP "OCCUPIED" I have an adequate income and believe in helping married children, when necessary--but my pet peeve is people trying to find something for me (and other widows) to do. I know other widows, many of them, who feel just as I do, though circumstances force some to sub- mit to their children's "kindness" in plying them with tasks. After a woman has worked for her fam- ily for 30 to 50 years, I call it unhuman, heathenish, to pile work on her--just to keep her "occu- pied." Sure, I concede idleness is the devil's workshop and self - pity is even worse. But let me choose what I want to do. I haven't time for half the things I'd like--the books I would read, the lectures, I'd hear, and the Lord's work that ought to be done for poor unfortunate who direly need help. My elder daughter lives nearby and I help her many times--but for her sake, not mine. Right now 1 am keeping two of her children while she has a vacation with her husband, but I don't give up every- thing for my progeny and they don't expect me to. My youngest child is by far the most selfish of my three and I am looking forward to her leaving me, I guess, so then I can really' do as I choose. I know I speak for many tired widows, held in bondage by their well meaning but misin- formed children. Call me selfish and heartless if you will, but I consider myself an independent person.

Truly there are times when no price can measure the value of your telephone service -- ready when you want it most. Such a time came to Sarnia on May 21st when the tornado ripped through the downtown area. That night, Bell equipment -- the telephone builuing itself -- built to stand up in emergencies, came through one of the toughest tests. An emergency power unit kept building and equipment alive. Dial mechanism, properly housed, remained undamaged. Light from the Bell--shown above streaming through the building's shattered doorway--was for hours the only electric light in downtown Sarpia. It bé&ame a beacon that told of service working for nearly all of Sarnia's 12,000 customers. Less than 1200 telephones were put out of action, and by the end of the next day all but a few of these were back in service--thanks to telephone men from Sarnia, Windsor and Chatham. Outside wires suffered little damage, because they were either under- » ground out of harm's way or overli¢ad in rear-lane areas, safer from falling trees. above) and Pearl Roberts (right) switchboards, Chief Operator Alice Edwards (shown here directing an off- duty volunteer to her post at the switchboard) found all but those more seriously cut anxious to go back to their switchboards, and when the off duty came in without being were no longer required.

By TRACY ADRIAN stances, on the theory that these views are wrong, simply because | they don't interpret your private feelings about certain thorns in your side. - At 57, you are a long way from being 68, remember. And as your last chick isn't married yet, you aren't at all prepared to say with finality just what accomodations you will or won't make, to retain a sense of close significant value of somebody. Only the testing time will tell. You are still involved in speculation, as to how it will be, | to have nobody's wants but your own to consult, in ordering your last years. However, more power to you. I am all for your self-reliant ap- proach (in theory) to age. Maybe the golden mean in mother - love would be found somewhere in be- tween (1) your attitude of pushing progeny out of the nest and (2) the other widow's tireless clinging to her burdensome married 'baby' daughter. But certainly your ac- cent on independence is healthier than the other woman's sacrificial bleating insofar as the welfare of all affected is concerned: Mary Haworth counsels through her column, not by mail or per- sonal interview.
