I This morning I heard a youngster crying in front of my| house I looked out to see a lit-| tle neighbor child surrounded} by four jeering children. The| boy was wearing a diaper over his trousers and had a card- board sign around his neck which read, "] am seven years old and I still wet my bed." I was furious and went out- side and began to remove the sign and the diaper. My hus- band stopped me and said, "'It is none of your business." I know the child's mother. She is a divorcee and as nutty) as a fruitcake. Her oldest boy plays centrefield with his thumb in his mouth. A middle child. a girl, has a nervous eye tick and stutters.

By CAROL ANDERSON TORONTO (CP)--Visiting Mrs. Donald Fleming is like visiting your grandmother. In spite of her great dislike of publicity, she is a comfortable And like any woman who has just put her nine-month-old granddaughter to bed, she loves to chatter about homey things --the kind of coffee she likes, the pleasure her husband gets from his library, or the walks the end of the street. But there is no doubt that the short, gray-haired woman with the smiling blue eyes knew what her life would be like when she married Donald Fleming. "T married a politician," she said, "Shortly after our mar- riage Donald ran for the board of education, and we've been involved in politics ever since." In 1945, Mr. Fleming was elected a member of Parlia- ment and for the next 18 years politics. He has served as min- ister of finance and justice min- sought the leadership of the Progressive Conservative party.

"Toronto isn't like that though--even. a shopping trip is an all-day outing'.' But for one who loves the out- doors, Mrs . Fleming does not like gardening. "I planted the petunias," she said laughing and pointing to a few small flower beds. 'Some people have green thumbs and just love it, but evergreens need just enough care for me. "I don't go overboard for any one thing. Variation suits me best. I enjoy going to the thea- tre but like a little of every- thing. I'm the same way with reading and furniture--I like variety." WORKS WITH BLIND When she _ has time, she enjoys bowling and golfing, and she spends every Monday morning doing volunteer work with the blind.
