BarbaH S.
Dear Barbara: I don't think
there is a hard and fast rule to
cover this question although l
would say the third finger of the
right hand would be more proper
than the left hand. | think if the
rings were worn on the left hand,
people might be inclined to think
the boy and girl were actually
engaged which isn't true of going
steady. My wife also says the right
hand would be more practical be-
cause the third finger of the left
hand should be reserved solely
for engagement and wedding
rings. Then, too, some couples
wear class rings on chains around
their necks and also on wrist
bracelets.
Dear Dan. l recently returned
to California after living in the
East for two Years. While in the
East l met a boy whom l like
very much. When | left we prom
ised to write to each other at
least once a week and we've both
kept this promise. He thinks he
loves me but 7 know that l like
him only as a friend. I've now re-
newed a friendship with another
boy here in California and it's be-
come very serious. Should l write
and tell the first boy about this
or should I wait and hope he
forgets me? I don't want to hurt
him or our friendship but l don't
feel l can continue this deception
indefinitely. Thank YOU

Dear Wondering: You've got
no other choice than to tell the
boy. AS you said, you think of
him as a friend and he thinks of
you as a sweetheart. That's quite
a difference in degree of rela-
tionship and if you continued al
him to write to you under
his false impression, you wouldn't
be able to live with yourself. If
serious about this boy in
California, then the only thing to

Back in the Mauve Decade faint
ing was fashionable. Every lady
who was a lady carried smelling
salts in her reticule and felt it
her duty to faint on the slightest
provocation. Ladies no longer
faint at the sound of a four-letter
word, but people do faint, and
everyone should be prepared to
deal with the situation correctly.
Painting is sudden unconscious
ness caused when the blood supply
to the brain is temporarily reduc-
ed. 1t may be the result of injury
or emotional shock. Fear, hunger,
fatigue, confinement in close quar-
tiers, or unpleasant associations
a cause people to faint. Strong
men have been known to keel
over at the sight of a hypodermic
needle.
Consciousness usually returns
quickly in simple fainting. If pos
sible, the person should be placed
on his back and his feet raised so
that the blood returns to his head.
He should not try to get up for
ten minutes or more or he may
faint again. A dash of cold water
or smelling salts or spirits of am
monia may be used for their slim
ulating effect, but only if there
is no sign of bleeding. If a per-
son doesn't recover consciousness
quickly, there's reason to suspect
something more serious. A doctor
should be called Immediately.
Simple fainting can't happen
when a person is lying down. So
the best thing to do for someone
who feels faint is to get him down

THESE detectives should clarity

you to apply.
Your first objective is to per-
ceive the real basic need to be
met, purpose to be fulfilled and
achieve integrity as to purpose.
The object must fulfill a need. ac-
complish its purpose, achieve its
aim and perform its function.
Physically, it must do its Job well.
effectively. The knife must cut,
at the hand and be easy to main
tain. The chair must raise you off
the floor, be easy to move, EASY
TO maintain, easy to move about in.
1t must meet the physical need.
Aesthetically it must look like
doing its job to the point of max
ing one want to do it, often clarity
ing and redifining the job.
Your second objective is to per-
ceive the real nature of the mater
ial and achieve integrity in its
use: to select the right material
and to understand its suitability
to the purpose and to the method.
Physically, by using every poten-
TALLY of the material to further
the purpose Of the object. A pot
ter's bowl can be made of coarse
clay and crude glaze or have fine
sieved clay with various minerals,
capable Of high firing. Aesthetical-
ly, by highlighting and dramatic
ing the unique qualities of the
material so that the look of the
object increases your understand
ing OF the material and its right
ness for the purpose. One material
should never be made to initiate
another.
Your third objective is to per-
celve every potentiality of the
method chosen to make the object.
The method should contribute to
the purpose and the best use of
the material. Strive for integrity
of method of production. Physic-
ally, by utilizing every potential
ity of the method to contribute to
efficiency. Illuminated nodded
wood can give comfort in chairs,
strength. lightness, long wear and
low upkeep. Aesthetically, the
appearance of the object should

evident the method by which it
was made. If glass is blown it
should look blown. The objective
