There are exceptions, of course.

There is much attention to pro- viding "'kidney rolls" and other cushioning for, ie small of the back. There are comfy foam rubber seat cushions, soft enough to give gently with each movement of the body, yet firm enough so that they will never "bottom out'. ' COMFY LOUNGERS There are many high-backed loungers for those who. enjoy relaxing support for the neck and head. But there is also a noticeable trend toward the low- backed tub ehair and the square upholstered box shape. There is also a growing preva- lence of the "demi-lounge"' chair for the young sophisticates who enjoy grouping ther dinner guests around outsizéd coffee tables. This type of chair is scaled low to the ground and is armless. The wide, box-like Oriental contour is particularly popular for thie type of low seat- g. Of course, there are plenty of full-scale lounge chairs, either thin-lined or massive. In occasional chairs, detailing marks both frames and uphol- stery.

As you can see it is a hospital form for physician's orders. . Tam a student nurse and this letter is being written in the maternity section of a large hospital. This is my first day in the delivery department and I am assigned to sit with four expectant mothers. Two of these mothers are happily married women. One woman has three little boys and she is hoping for a girl. When her fine-looking husband brought her in a few hours ago he said jokingly: "It's got to be a girl, you know--but if it's an- other boy; we won't leave him here." The second happily married woman is having her first baby. Her adoring husband is so con- cerned for her that I am se- eretly envious. How I hope one day I am lucky enough to get @ man like that! The other two expectant mothers are unmarried. They came within hours: of each other, from the Florence Criten- ton Home. My heart aches for these two girls. One is 17, the other is 18. I am sorry for them not only because they are facing this ordeal alone, but because when it's over they will not be taking their babies home. They will leave empty-handed and heavy- hearted. The full impact of this trag- edy hit when I heard one girl say to the other, "It wasn't BS ies I am writing this letter in the hope you will print it. It may help some foolish teenager whose resistance is gradually being worn down by a smooth, fast-talking boy. friend.--DIANE Dear Diane: There is nothing left for me to say except thank you for writing. Your letter said it all. Dear Ann Landers: What do you think of a mother who en- courages her daughter's boy friend to come over every night of the week? She drives the two of them to the movies, to the bowling alley, swimming, any place they wish to go. The boy is urged to eat lunch and dinner at the girl's home about a half-starved dog in the neighborhood. It wouldn't sur- prise me if Joe was writing about our pet. We have a large, long-haired dog. She tries to cool off during the summer by going. under the porch. She refuses to come out during the day, even for food. At night she eats only part of what we give her. The other dogs eat the rest. It's been this way every sum- mer since she was a pup. It used to worry us sick, but the vet told us she'd eat when she felt like it and not to worry. When the weather cools off she perks right up and eats nor- mally. If Scranton Joe can get our dog to eat during the summe: we would surely appreciate it. If he feels bad because he can count her ribs a block away, how do you think we feel?-- A DOG LOVER, TOO Confidential to sorry for him This bird is bad news.

When he writes he usually considers them so important that he may not have much urge to centre his attention on the ideas he is expressing on creativeness. Right now, in the upper grades, higl. school and college, a theme or composition of superior creativeness may be rated by the teacher as low or failing, if it has many mis- spelled words or violates the simple rules of good form.

In the Prudent Diet the stipulated amount of oil (corn oil) is three tablespoons daily, to be used in cooking and at the table. Perhaps knowing some of the difficulties experienced by the Anti-Coronary Club members will be helpful. The biggest hur- dle was limiting the size of por- tions and frequency of serving of meats containing high propor- tions of saturated fats, such as beef, mutton and pork. So, homemakers, you might wish to brush up on your gourmet cook- ing of chicken, turkey, shrimp, fish and veal. The problem in restaurant eating was to limit the choice of entree to broiled, baked or boiled seafood, or to poultry. If your family doesn't have to count calories too closely, cakes and pies may be included. How- ever, these will have to be made at home with oil. The men participating did not find it easy to give up Danish pastry, coffee cake, cookies and pie when the wives did not of- fer a substitute. Some men missed the ice cream, but wa- ter ices and an occasional sher- bet topped off a meal for them.
