t half with and 1 tea- Sprinkle a bitters over broiler until slightly. ed t- ly a st nir ing ARE YOU, LIKE ME, get- ting a little tired of everyone writing and talking about the "affluent society", the 'great society'; women who are frustrated because they have a "job" and keep a home, or who don't have a "job" and keep a home; that Canadians are becoming an adjunct of the U.S.A.; that Canadians are becoming anti-American, that teenagers are a terrible problem, that everyone who wears a beard, or doesn't conform, is a beatnik and so on and on? What a lot of hot air. We are what we are. Our centen- nial year which will never come again, is here. Why not start accentuating the positive and practise being proud of being a Canadian; proud of our many talented young citi- zens without waiting for them to receive accolades beyond our borders before having the confidence to pay them grudg- ing tribute; proud of our edu- cational institutions and our varied heritage? It seems to me that those with a Real Canadian spirit and pride are our delayed pioneers, also known as New Canadians. They chose Can- ada as their country and cher- ish her freedoms and the many benefits that the native- born take for granted. These are the people who want to celebrate Canada's Dominion Day, July 1. They would no more want to change it than a Yankee would change the Fourth of July. LET US REALIZE that it is no longer fitting to excuse ourselves because we are a "young country'. We are not even in our teens; we are now what might be termed a middle - aged country com- pared to the many nations which have '"'emerged" in the past decade or so. Let us start acting like a mature middle - aged country instead of a petulant juvenile. Let us hope that the federal and provincial governments of Canada will lead the way with mature dignity, the mass media of our country lead the way with more boosting and less knocking and every citi- zen stand tall and proud, whatever our ethnic back- ground, rather than sulking in the shadow of what can only be termed the great Canadian inferiority complex. Which exuberant note brings me to Les Feux Follets and I'm happy to be able to report that the Kiwanis Club who sponsored the show in the civic auditorium is in. the clear. What a vivid, vigorous pro- JO'S JOURNAL BY JO ALDW!NCKLE Women's Editor of The Times duction it was; full of life and humor blended artistically with exceptional technique. Those who were wise enough to attend will remember for a long time, the haunting Indian scene with the throbbing drums, the chiefs in their gor- geous feathered headgear and the maidens in beaded buck- skin. WHO COULD FORGET the old prospector, panning for gold and the gay ladies of the Last Chance Saloon; or the prairie cowboys and the homesteaders singing at sun- down or whirling through some fancy "squares"? Wasn't every Britisher mes- merized by the exquisite Highland dancing and didn't every Easterner tingle and tap to the tempo of Old Que- bec? Well then, why were there s0 many empty seats? Basically, we need more patronage for artistic enter- prises in Oshawa. Kiwanians sold fifty per cent of the at- tendance and the news media were extremely generous with advance publicity but obviously this is not enough. Here is an opportunity, I might say a responsibility, for presidents and general mana- gers of big business in town to support the efforts of the Centennial Co-ordinat- ing Committee in a tangible way. This committee has been working voluntarily for the past eighteen months to make possible some _ spectacular events for the citizenry, now it is the turn of those who have not been called upon to give up their summer evening of golf to swelter on the fifth floor at the city hall, or to face cold, sleet and treacher- ous roads, passing up a cozy evening at home, to wade through the interminable cor- respondence of a committee meeting. TO PUT IT PLAINLY, I think industry and commerce, including the banks, should buy blocks of tickets and dis- tribute them among their em- ployees. This form of patron- age which is practised in other cities, promotes an ap- preciation of the cultural arts, opens windows of the mind hitherto sealed, the far-reach- ing effect of which can never be reckoned.

"The mother is often a litttle too concerned about what her child is eating,' says Dr. Elizabeth Chant Robertson, a nutritionist. "Often she thinks the child is not getting enough to eat, but if you examine the child you find he's getting KEEP IN TRIM Weight - Lifting Strengthens Flabby Stomach Muscles _ By IDA JEAN KAIN With spring less than three weeks away, you are asking for fast toners. Fine. Try something exciting, work with weights. In this regard, a new mother has written an encouraging report. Here it is. "T want to report just what I did to get my figure back. It seems I have always had loose tstomach muscles. Even when I wore a tight girdle it didn't seem to help much, After my baby was born my stomach pro- truded and I looked just awful. "Two months ago I bought a set of five-pound dumbbells. I exercised with these every day, exercising while the baby took her nap. It has helped me tighten my stomach muscles and banish my midriff bulge. If the exercise can help others the way it has helped me, I am only too glad to tell your read- ers about it. : "T lie across the bed, on my back, but keep my feet flat on the floor. I hold a dumbbell in each hand, and slowly raise my arms to above my head and on over until my arms are hanging over the other side of the hed. Then just as slowly, I bring my arms back down to my sides.

This exercise is amazingly nelp- ful. I plan to continue until I have firm muscles. "The nicest thing of all, my husband says I look a lot nicer in all my clothes, and I feel nicer, too." Wonderful! This exercise posi- tion is safe, for your back is protected. In working with weights, some authorities rec- ommend exercising every other day, with a day of rest in- between. Work slowly. Breathe normally. The advise is to un- dertrain rather than overstrain. "Women who want to regain a youthful appearance should work with weights," advised Dr. L. E. Moorehouse, who is direc- tor of the University of Cali- fornia at Los Angeles human | performance laboratory. Working with weights can flatten and firm up flabby stem- ach muscles, improve carriage, strengthen the heavy muscles under the breasts and thus im- prove the bustline, Dr. Moore- house promised. Your clothes will fit better and you'll feel like holding your head up and your shoulders straight. plenty. "At age three or four a child is normally growing slowly in weight. He's growing in height and is active and more slender than he was as a baby and mother worries." Dr. Chant Robertson, a clinical consultant at the Hos- pital for Sick Children, says feeding problems in the two- to - six - year - old group are more common in small famil- ies than in large ones. "This is partly because mother has less time to spend on any one child in a large family and partly because the younger children follow the example of older ones, who are eating better. "They don't have problems in camps or institutions be- cause the children know that if they don't eat their dinner their neighbors will." There is too much permis- siveness in training a child to eat, she says. Picky Eaters Can Be Trained To Enjoy Majority Of Foods "He knows he has to wear rubbers and go to bed at a certain time because he is trained. The child accepts that. Why shouldn't he be trained to eat what he is given? He can be if mother is interested and ingenious. You don't need to meet the child head-on. "If you've prepared a meal and the child announces he isn't going to eat it you don't have to make a new home. In this age their favorite word is 'no' and they don't really mean it half the time." In introducing new food, "give just a little nibble and encourage rather than gcold, and make sure all helhines are small."' If you think your child really doesn't like a food, skip that one and provide some- thing else of the same type or try serving it in another way that he might like better. "Children this age don't like mixtures much and don't | like things such as creamed | vegetables because they can't see what they've got. Often don't like firm meat | the youngsters will learn to be. Try to serve food every- one likes. You can alter sea- sonings or trim fat for young children. "There used to be a lot of things you were told you couldn't feed a child. Nowa- days pre-schoolers can have anything a grown-up can." Snacks should depend largely on your child and his appetite. Will it spoil his meals?

Dr. Chant suggests fruit juice or a bis- cuit. "There is real evidence that eating candies between meals does cause tooth decay, espe- cially sticky ones.
