714 THe OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, August 11, 1966 ANN LANDERS Brother's Resentment Dear Ann Landers: For the + 20 years my brother has spoken to me because he not asked to be an usher my wedding. I realize now t it was a mistake and I feel ; rotten about it, but I was young and I didn't know anything : friend oh about weddings. My husband asked his closest to be his best man and ie asked his four brothers to be T thawwhe thace a wvugne ween choi es were up to the groom 60 I kept quiet. No one said a shat ties " word until after the wedding. Then my parents and aunts told me what a horrible thing I had done. Although we live in the same * ¢lty, my children do not know my brother's children, They are like strangers. I get physically ill when I think about it, Any advice will be appreciated.-- Learned Too Late Dear Late; I cay understand your brother's hurt feelings-- but 20 years is ridiculous, You don't say ow old you were when you married, but I suspect your parents are more - to blame than you, They should © * 7 oy - * 7 * " - - * - 7 - w * - 7 "- * = - * - ° * * * - " Ceeeabe ee eaweeantaaanas eeeaeeae have told you before the wed- ding that your brother belonged in the wedding party. (And they should have insisted on it.) If you think it will help take this column to your brother's home and tell him I sent you. Ask him to forgive you and to forgive your parents, too. And please, please let me know how it all turns out. Dear Ann: I met a girl a month ago and from that first meeting we were strongly at- tracted to one another. We are both 23, mature, have good jobs, and are struggling to keep above water financially. Mar- riage has been discussed but we agree that we should first live together for several months to learn if we are compatible. Twenty. Years They won't get off my back. They insist that what we have in mind is back-alley living and they are appalled that I would consider it. I can't make them see we are trying to avoid di- vorce, What do you say?-- Mr, B. Dear Mr. B: It sounds to me as if you are trying to avoid marriage.I'm with ma and pa. Dear Anw Landers: I am 17 years old, a junior in high school, and pregnant, My story is not new to you. Alex and I went steady for a year and we thought we were in love. When I gave him the news I was pregnant he said he was real sorry but that it was my responsibility so see that such things didn't happen. He could not see wrecking his life by getting married at 18. After that speech I wouldn't have had him on a silver tray. The. saddest part of all is that my parents blame themselves. They have been wonderful and I die when I see the hurt look in their eyes. I would like to say to all par- ents who have had to face such a situation that they should not eat themselves up with guilt. True, they should not have al- lowed their daughter to go steady, but 90 per cent of the blame belongs to the girl. I knew right from wrong, but I didn't have the well-power to discipline myself. Parents can't go along on dates and act as policemen. All they can do is teach their daughters what is right and hope for the best. My parents did their part and I let them down.--Regretful Dear Regretful: Your story is indeed an old one but your ap- proach is unusual. Most people in trouble look to place the blame elsewhere. You are ac- cepting the responsibility for your mistakes and I admire you The problem is my parents. for it. Good luck to you, dear. # mato and bacon on 6 slices GRIDIRON ROLLS AND MUFFIN SNACK Knife And Fork Sandwiches Popular For Patio Suppers Sandwiches are no longer the dainty tea-time morsels they once were, Today's sandwiches can be a light lunch or as hearty as you wish to make them, The trend is to a sub- stantial filling along with salad greens and crisp salad vege- tables.

The books emerged from the private hell of the childhood and youth of their creator, Beatrix Potter. Her secret diary was published recently, 100 years after her birth. From the ages of 14 to 30 Bea- trix Potter wrote the journal, entirely in code, The 200,000 words were deciphered by Les- lie Linder, an engineer with a lifelong fondness for Miss Pot- ter's work. She was raised in a_ strict Victorian household of great luxury and idleness. She de- scribed her parents as "obsti- nate, hard - headed matter-of- fact folk." She never went to school and had no friends of her own age. Her father kept her on a tiny allowance, and was "constantly on the lookout for matters of complaint." on She suffered constantly from) headaches and "odious fits of low spirits' -- a common ail- ment of daughters of the well- to-do in Victorian England who were given little to do except stay home. At 17, she wrote: "I have be- gun the dark journey of life.) Will it.go on as darkly as it) has begun?" B.C. Girl Guides Acquire Camp Site | CRANBROOK, B.C. (CP) -- The four companies of girl guides in this eastern British Columbia city have become landowners. The guides, who have al- ways depended on rented or loaned space for summer camp- ing, have been given a four-acre site along the Moyie River southwest of here. Service clubs and citizens, hearing of the land donation, went to work to provide facili- ties at the site. The guides now have a 40-by- 28-foot longhouse, complete with a donated metal roof. Each of the four Cranbrook companies spends a week in the new camp, using the longhouse for storage as they camp out in tents. Brownies, the junior guides, will use the longhouse for sleep- ing accommodation when they are at the camp.

I never seem to know people, It makes one wonder whether one is presentable." TURNED TO ART Through these years, she was, which became her room, she classified fossils and studied fungi, Her diary: "I cannot rest, I must draw, however poor the result. ,..I can't settle to any- | thing Sut my painting. I iose patience over everything else . , . 1 will do something sooner or later," She did. The Story of Peter Rabbit was refused by several publishers and she had it printed privately in 1901. It sold for about 25 cents a copy. Among those who praised it was Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes. Soon she got a publisher -- Warne, the com- pany now publishing her diary --and the book was successful. | It is still being bought by par- ents.
