the best We can. holding to prin-
ciples. and hope for the best.
Prohibition never works in
human relationships, something
I learned once to my everlasting
grief.
Children and candy are like
strawberries and cream. Given
the two it is well nigh iinpos-
sible to keep them apart, and
who wants to? I have met many,
many children but never have 1
met one whose eyes did not
shine with anticipation when
they fell on piece of candy.
What to do?
! ration the candy and / al
ways manage to have handy a
bowl of red apples. / select
smaller apples SO the children
can eat them without straining
their Jaws, and not. after TAX
ing a couple Of bites, toss the
uneaten apple out on the lawn.
Most people give children the
biggest apple they can find with
sad results. 4s
Apples have a way of cleans
ing the mouth. They leave it
with a clean. fresh taste. I
believe they remove the deposits
the candy might have left on
the teeth and tongue The little
mouths / have examined in this
experiment seem to bear this out.
And the children like the idea.
In Italy. the land of my fore
fathers, the dessert is usually
fruit. Rarely are there the
richly sugared desserts we know
in our country. Did you ever
notice the strong white teeth
of the Italian youths who visit
us? Maybe those fruit desserts
are the answer.
Whatever the situation, chill
dren want candy. Let them have
1t in reason, I say, and follow

happens.

The dentists, and may their
shadows never grow less. want
us to be more cautious about
allowing children to eat candy.
They point out that candy. espe-
cially overuse of it, is likely to
cause cavities. They advise that
Immediately after the candy is

of love between his parents. Be-
cause she lacked a responsive

showered all her affection on
the boy. He then comes to
think. unconsciously, in later
life, that he has not been
weaned-that he is still being
mothered if a woman shows him
any affection. He feels this as a
threat to his manhood. He is
insecure and overanxious to as
sert himself. He must always
feel that he is debating. yet is
too immature and insecure to
take the initiative.
Thank your lucky stars.
George, if you are engaged to a
fine girl-whom at present you

of your life to being worthy of

of how much you lack. Write me

If, as you claim. you have
never once taken the initiative
in displaying affection, you cer-
tainly don't have the makings
of a good husband, and you'd
better begin to improve your
game. Don't dream of marrying
her until you have learned how
to be a man. Try rushing her
every time you see her. Forget
how attractive and we'll educated
you are and begin to figure ways
in which you can please her, in

You can do this if you put your
mind on it, and you may end
up by finding life a lot more

reflections to this massive torrent of deahess prose

A gloom thicker than the
November fog and mist that
swirled through the streets
blanketed the homes of Twin
brook on the morning of Novem-
ber 16. Newscasters and the
morning paper were shrilling a
story that couldn't happen in the
model community of Twinbrook
but it had. A sordid, shock
ing tragedy of sister killing
sister that was played for all it
was worth by the sobsisters and
the sensation lovers.
Twinbrook has a fierce COM
munity pride. 1t is a place of
happy young families with hand
some, gregarious children and
civic-minded parents who have
left no stone unturned to make
Twinbrook known throughout the
area for its unity of effort and
spirit.
On this morning there was no
gaiety. As the news flew from
home to home, there was shock
and quick sorrow. In the school
yard, children stood in hushed
little groups as they talked in
fairy tale terms of "A wicked step
sister who had killed IA little girl
who only yesterday had walked
among them.
The Bannister family were
newcomers to our community.
They have emblazoned the name
of Twinbrook across every tab
loid in the country. But, sur
prisingly, there was little con-
demnation. Where the fault lay
seemed of little importance.

child who would never sit in Mrs.
Denise Mason's first grade again.
Grief for a five-year-old who
would not comprehend why her
life had suddenly been turned
upside down. Compassion for a
pretty teenager who had hated
enough to try first to destroy
herself and then to CARROT her
half-sister in a minute of uncon-
trollable passion. Mothers and
fathers held their own carefree
youngsters a little closer as they
thought of a man and woman
whose torment must be beyond
human endurance. The milk
man, the mail man, the neigh
bors, the whole community were
sickened and saddened by this
stain upon the happy place that
is Twinbrook. Each guiltily
wondered if he had passed light
ly by, unheedingly, when by word
or deed he might have eased the
growing tension in this uneasy
household.
The remnants of the Bannister
family must pick up the shatter-
ed fragments of living and some
how carry on. The cruel head
lines will subSide. Life for the
rest of us will proceed about as
usual. But we must not forget.

ming, Star of Oct. % concerning

Manager for Montgomery Coun-
ty. 1t (the letter. was signed by

What is wrong with the pres
ent acting County Manager, Mr..
Mason A. Butcher or Mr.. Alex
ander Hancock, the Finance Di-
rector, who has acted in the past
as County Manager?
Or is history going to repeat
itself with the new Council. Are
they going to advertise for a
manager all the way from Kala-
mazoo to Tim-buck-too, pick out
something, pay high price, and
find out after it is too late that
what they now have is twice as
good at half the price?
l do not know what Mr.. But.
cher's or Mr.. Hancock's salary is
at present, nor do l know if they
are "Damcrats or Publicans".
This much l do know-that if it
was necessary to vote for the

for either Mr.. Butcher or Mr..
Hancock in preference to several
the County has had in the past.
