R|CKER'S
NAIL
By DOROTHY KICKER
Dear Mrs. Kicker:

Dear Mrs. Kicker:
/ am Is years old. A very
nice boy whom / have
known for years asked me
to 60 steady four months
ago. 1 jumped at the chance
because several Of my girl
friends were going steady
and I also liked the boy.
Now 1 realize it was a
big mistake. 1 have not
only lost contact with sew
eral Of my former friends
but I've also had to refuse
dates with other boys
whom I like very much.
How can l explain the
way l feel to this boy?
I've tried many times but
I'm afraid Of hurting his
feelings. Will you please
tell me how to get out Of
this situation?
CARLEAN
Your problem Is quite
common among young teen
ayers who go steady. In my
opinion, a girl who finds her
self in this situation is not
being kind If she continues
going steady with the boy.
1t is far better to talk it
over with him and explain it
is not his fault and has moth
ing to do with him as a per-
son. Take the blame and tell
him how sorry you are but
you realize you are Just not
ready to settle down to one
boy. However, since you do
like him, you would still en-
Joy dating him occasionally
If he is interested.
In other words, Carlean,
try to build up the boys ego
while you are subtly letting
him down, and give him
every chance to save face. "
Dear Mrs. Kicker.

Bronte Sisters Poems a Prize

One of the great rarities Of
10th century English literature
is the first edition of Char
lotte, Emily and Anne Bronte's
Poems" a book published
at their own expense under
pen names and of which only
two copies were sold.
The surviving copies are
at a premium on the col
lector'S market today. In 1859
a copy brought $5S2 at auc-
tion. The title page Of the
rare first issue of the first
edition reads as follows:

LIS, AND ACTION BELL.

AND JONES, 8, PATER-
NOSTER ROW. (Rule. }

The Bronte sisters, who
were later to become famous
as novelistS, used their first
initials as part Of their pseu-
dOnyms.

cloth and contains an errata
leaf at the end. Copies lack
ing the errata leaf are less
valuable than those that have
it. There was a second issue

to $10O or more at retail.

BY HOWARD WHITMAN

George, in his mid-4Os, finds
himself in the doctors office
with a case of nerves. The doc
tor says, "Sorry, old man,
you've got to get away, You've
got to close up that office and
get away for at least six weeks.
It's either that or - break
down"
What went wrong in Georges
life? In simplest terms, he lost
his work-play balance. This
balance is one Of the prime
elements of mental health.
Psychology Prof. Mandel
Sherman, of the University OF
Chicago, said to me, Zone Of
our most common problems
with people who tend to be
tense or neurotic is to balance
their work and play"
And when l visited the Men.
ninger Foundation in Topeka,
Kans., DR.. william Menninger
remarked, ''There is no
healthier sign than a. mans
willingness to toss all his wor-
rios into a cooked hat and gu
out and play golf"
For the intricate machine Of
the nervous system, play is a
lubricant. The man who brags,
81 haven't taken a vacation in
five years." is like the motorist
who boasts, 81 haven't changed
the oil in my car for 5000
miles"
PurifieS Emotions
The personnel director Of a
large corporation recently told
me, Before / hire a man l
always find out what he does
for play. If he plays well the
chances are he will work well. "
In ancient Greece, Aristotle
said that play purifies the emo
tionS "of great deal of the
distaSteful and dangerous prop
critics which adhere to them. I"
Even then, lack Of play was a
problem. The Greeks had a
word for it - Anhedonia, in
ability to have fun.
Today, the nervousness which
sends George to see the doctor
is more likely to stem from a
distortion Of play than from a
lack Of it. Our cities are full

DON'T BE NERVoUsL9
Balance Work With Fun

and anxiety normally attached
to the most exacting kind of
work. Play exists as a contrast
to work; there must be some
thing with which to contrast it.
There is no slide-rule to tell
you just how many hours a
week you must play to. achieve
a work-play balance. Only your
own sense Of well-being can
tell you that you are playing
sufficiently. Only your own feel
ings Of tension, irritability, and
worry can tell you that you are
not playing enough.
Poor Vacations
It is no good to earmark so
many hours a week in which
you will roll up your sleeves,
grit your teeth, and play. Play
cannot be taken like castor oil.
The vacation trails are full Of
nervous people with a do-or-die
determination to have fun even
If it kills them.
Sometimes people choose play
which is too expensive for their
pocketbooks. Result: They bar
gain for too much play and end
up with none at all. AS DR.. Will
Menninger put it, eff a vacation
is full of worry over the money
it costs, then it is no vacation"
Plays sole goal is satisfaction.
Choose something you are good
at.
This is one of the beauties of
play. While work often offers
little choice, play puts the
world at your feet. While you
may not be the greatest lawyer,
salesman, or engineer in the
world, you certainly have a
chance to be a great fly-caster,
trap-shOoter, ice skater, bowler,
or squash player.
Or, If you like collecting, you
can have a pre-eminent collec-
tion Of glass buttons. You pick
what you like-and if it doesn't
like you, you pick something
else.

You don't need a thermo-
meter if you have a cricket
in the house. II was dis
covered in 1897 that If you
count the chirps of the snowy
night cricket for Is seconds
and then add 80 to the num-
ber Of chirps, you will get
the fahrenheit temperature.
AS the temperature goes up,
the frequency Of the chirps
