Lodge entertains
‘senior citizens

A charming “senior citi-
zens” tea was held by the
Royal Purple Lodge last Wed-
nesday in their banquet room.

Honored Royal Lady Mrs. G.
Halfnights was hostess on this
special “Royal Purple” day
set aside each year for the
members to do an act of kind-
ness. This was done by invit-
ing older memsbers of the com-
munity to a tea so they may
meet other people and also en-
joy a special outing.

Fragrant bouquets of lilacs
ecntred the tea tables, and the
50 people who attended also
were entertained by a unique
form of bingo in which the
prizes were circulated from
winner to winner.

Mrs. R. Kelt was in charge
of the tea arrangements.

WITH IRENE

I watched fondly from the
window as Ward played ball
with the bigger boys, and I
thought of how kind it was of
them to be bothered with the
nuisance of a small one.

Then suddenly it happened.
The ball bounced up and
caught Ward full in the face,
and he came screaming for
home. “Gordie hit me,” he
howled.

“No he didn’t,” I corrected
him, “it was an accident, and
besides, big boys don’t cry over
a little thing like that.”

“But,” he sobbed indig-
nantly, “I’m only four years
old.”

That was several weeks ago
when it seemed that Ward
had been four for a long time,
but now suddenly impossibly
he is five and in another year
will be going to school.

PARTY PLANS

“As we are surrounded by a
neighborhood full of children
Of assorted ages and sizes, it
makes it a little difficult to
know where to stop with the
invitations. So I had the
idea of having a
birthday lunch this year, and
just inviting about six small
special friends. With the
graduation banquet scheduled
for the same evening, this
seemed a distinctly happy ar-
rangement. “I'll get the party
over with early and have lots
of time to get ready for the
banquet,” I chortled to Clive.

How naive can you get? At
2:30 I called out, “ Okay, kids,
the party is over, here’s your
candy, everybody go home
now!’ (You can’t be subtle
with five-year-olds). “ Thanks
for the party,” chorused Dawn,
Brad, Allison, Jock, Teddie and
Linda as they filed out.

At 2:34 there was a knock
at the door. “Come in,
Dawn,” sang out Ward .°. .
“Oh, good, here’s- Brad, tgo,
and there’s Linda coming. . eg
Stunned, I stopped in the midst
of cleaning up the bathroom
(they had been fishing with
the new plastic fish) but there
was no doubt, the party was
on again.
So much for my bright plans
} ... instead of having a party
from three to five, I had one
from 12 until five!
At five, Ward is an ash-
blonde tease (“crew-cut,” he
demands of the barber) with
bright blue eyes and a grin
with one front tooth still miss-
ing, a memento of a fall when
he was 14 months old. It may

account for the fact that he
has

difficulty pronouncing

“ the,”

for which I am con-
stantly correcting him.
“I frowed my apple core

in the garbage, Mom," he said
one morning, looking to Mar-
guerite Court and me for com-
mendation as we sat having
mid - morning coffee.
“THrowed, Ward,” I said
automatically . . . “ THrowed,
not frowed . . . THrowed.”
“Threw,” quietly interposed
Marguerite, and Ward stood
puzzled while the crazy adults
laughed themselves helpless.

NOT MUCH DIFFERENCE

At five, he doesn’t think
Playing with girls is sissy yet,
but if you kid him about his
girl-friend, Linda Kerley, he is
apt to smirk and look embar-
rassed, At five, he will look
me straight in the eye and tell
me he has washed his hands,
and at the same time try to
hide the dirty evidence behind
his back. At five, he will still
walk in all the puddles he can
find and through the treshly-
tarred road even though he has
already been threatened with
a spanking if he does it again
At five, he comes in with his
hands behind his back and a
coy “Which hand, Mom?
and then hands a bouquet of
dandelions.

At five, he still has a strong
attachment to his bathing
trunks for some unknown
reason and pesters to wear
them in sun, rain, wind and
snow; and his current dearest
Possessions are the new cow-
boy boots and the gun with
caps that really shoots. At
five, he loves to tease his sister
- +. “You can't come to my
birthday party,” . “Mom
gave me a chocolate bar but
you can’t have one.”

At five, he undoubtedly has
a lot of faults that are obvious
to the neighbors, but of which
we are oblivious.

We love him.

Auxiliary to buy
ice-making
machine

An ice-making machine for
the hospital will be purchased
by the Hospital Auxiliary, fol-
lowing a vote of approval at
their meeting last Wednesday
night.

The staff has found it im-
possible to keep up with the
demand for ice for such things
as cold compresses, baby in-
cubators, ete. so the new
equipment will fill a real need.
It will also be suitable for use
in the new hospital.

The group realized $40 on

the sale of coffee, and donuts
in town stores, which was
sponsored as a publje relations
service for National Hospital
Day. The money was turned
over directly to the hospital.

Other ventures planned by
the Auxiliary include a foat
entry im the Stampede parade

School problems
traced to home

WINNIPEG—The source of
many educational problems
lies in the home, says Dr. R.
L. Donald, president of the
Manitoba Teachers’ Society.

“Parents should see that
their own house is in order
before they voice their griev-
ances,” he said in an inter-
view.

Parents who are lax in dis-
ciplining their children expect
them to respect authority. at
school. Patterns of irrespons-
ibility end poor manners are
set in the home when parents
fail to correct their children,
he emphasized.

PARENTS’ CREED

Mr. Donald said parents
should be. able to answer ‘yes’
to each of these points,

1—When my child has a
dispute with school authorities
I never unquestioningly take
the child’s side without check-
.ing on the facts first with the
teacher or principal. —

2—Vprovidé a proper piact
for my child to do homework
without distractions. I check
before and after his home
study period to see how much
work was actually done,

8—I give guidance and en-
couragement in doing home-
work. I don't do it for him.

4—I consult with school
guidance teachers in selecting
courses for which my child has
suitable interests, abilities and
attitudes.

5—I know my child’s iimi-
tations and encourage him to
do his best at his own level.

FLOSS KEEPS BUTTONS ON

To keep the buttons of a
small child’s clothes is always
a problem. Use dental floss in
sewing buttons on all child-
ren’s garments. The floss is
easy to use if you have a needle
with a large eye, and it is
almost impossible to break the
floss.
