Things are quiet

in the old home town

Dear Mom—There really isn’t much news this
week; in fact nothing much seems, to have hap-

Unfortunately I can’t think of any-

thing to write for my column either, so I’m writing

to you instead tonight.

There was a big bonspiel on
in town this last weekend, but
Clive didn’t get in on it. I
can’t say I was too unhappy.
A lot of women have caught
only occasional glimpses of
their husbands coming and go?
ing at ‘odd hours since Friday.
One of my neighbors said that
her husband had a stiff neck
and had put his back out of
joint. He hobbled in about 12°
midnight Sunday, slept for two
hours with the heating pad on
his back, then staggered back
out to the curling rink for his
next game. This is fun?

Peter and Bill from Kelowna
came for supper last Thursday
night. I. planned a menu
around peach fried chicken
and cream puffs, but I g1
just wasn’t one of my

days. I remember the cream
puffs you used to make Sunday
after Sunday when we were

kids, and- they turned out
beautiful every time.
Well, mine emerged from

the oven as delightful golden
gobs . . . exactly an inch high.
I decided to make an upside-
down cake; it's a tried and true
recipe. It emerged from the
oven exuding a spicy pineapple
aroma . . . about half-an-inch
high. By this time I was get-
ting desperate and decided the
cake would have to be eatable.
I made hot biscuits irom a
“mix” as I was seared to take
any more chances, and then I
made the horrible. discovery
that I couldn't find my chicken
recipe. I began to wonder if
even the boiled potatoes would
be successful.

When we finally sat down,
my. guests said:' “Oh, you
shouldnt’ have gone to so much
trouble.” — So, of course, 1
gushed, “ Oh, it wasn’t a bit of
trouble; I just whipped it up in
a few minutes.” Hah!
+++ AND HOMER

They were horrified to see
Homer dragging himself round
the house on his behind as
though he was suffering dread-
fully from some paralyzing
disease. We explained that he
had had a sore leg in January
which had long since healed,
but Homer had discovered that
this was an easy way to get
around the house without ex-
erting himself. They just
couldn’t believe that a dog
could be so constitutionally
lazy that he would continue to
drag his rear-end around like
that. But that’s Hamer for
you.

KIWANIS SHOW

Wednesday is the Kiwanis
Fashion Show and this year 1
will be spared that frantic last-
minute rush as father attempts
to put some sort of costume
together. He has dressed up
as a woman at so many fashion
shows that we have a regular
“bust ’ and-garter belt that we

haul out every year; and one
of Mackenzies blonde wigs has

his name permanently on it.

It is always amazing how

somehow manage to produce a
good show, Women would be

again tonight, then I went to
choir practice afterwards. The
girls are working on festival
music now. Starting tomorrow
I’m going to the school twice
a week to play the piano and
help train a few of the children
in Elaine’s class. Tomorrow
night is P-TA; I have to make
a loaf of sandwiches, then, of
course, there will be the report
to write for the paper when I
get home. I hav2 to make up
two loaves of sandwiches for
the Fashion Show, and then
there is the big job of writing
that up too. ‘Thursday night
is my turn to have the bridge
club; I hope to give them
chicken salad end checolate
cake, but after last week's
fiasco perhaps I should lay in
a stock of store-bought cookies.
The kids have a carnival prac-
tice Tuesday, Wednesday and
Friday afternoons, and I
usually go down to put their
skates on and, wateh for a
while. There is a party sched-
uled for Saturday night, then,
of course, Sunday brings Sun-
day school for both me and the
kids.

Other than that, there isn’t
much doing, Mom.

Baby sitters judged on ability

around the home

If your daughter aspires to
a baby sitting career, your
guidance in basic homemaking
skills may be the deciding fac-
tor in her success.

Although baby-sitters are
much in demand, for a girl to
be rated “top-notch” and to
build up a list of loyal
“clients ’ requires effort,

When mothers compare haby
sitting lists, they do a compre-
hensive job of rating the girls.
Those who don’t rate co high
are usually relegated to the
bottom of the list, to be called
only in an emergency or for
very short sitting periods.

The importance of cleanli-
ness should be understood by a
sitter, especially if she will be
handling babies.

Clean clothes make 2 good
impression, too.

Even though a sitter does
not contract to wash dishes,
she should know how to stack
them neatly. Few sigats are
more discouraging to a return-
ing homemaker than to see
the table still uncleared, the
kitchen untidily cluttered. On
the other hand, the mother
should not continually ieave
dirty dishes with the expecta-
tion that the sitter will clean
up the mess.

Most young sitters re not
expected to do any real cook-
ing, but making sandwiches or
heating soup for lunch or sup-
per should not be beyond their
ability. -

It's up to the woman of the
house to provide her young
sitter with telephone numbers
where she can be reached and
whom to call in emergencies
The sitter should also have a
pad and pencil to record tele-
phone calls.

But it's up to the sitter not
to monopolize the telephone
with long conversations with
her friends. :

Before your young daughter
starts looking for sitting jobs,
see if you can arrange a trial
job or two with friends or close
neighbor:

This gives her a chance to
see if she really wants the re-
sponsibility of caring for
youngsters and she has an apti-

tude for getting along with
little ones,

If she does, then a clear
policy of which days and hours
she can work and of how much
she should charge should be
decided upon.
