In\nother words, they cramp their own\n'style and put themselves on the\nshelf too soon, by thinking ot themselves as advanced in years, and\nfrail, when a little gumption would\nkeep them active and happy tor\nyears to come.   \u25a0\nA woman of 54, who writes that\nshe is \"a very unhappy person\" is\na case in point,\n\"I have to work all day, and all\nI get for it ls my room and board,\"\nshe says. \"My daughter loves me,\nbut can't afford to .give me any\nmoney, So here I' am, with ho privacy, no money for my personal\nexpenses and unable to solve my\nproblem.\n\"It Is not easy to find work, Vou\nneed experience for everything,'\nand when you haven't worked (or\nthirty-five years you just don't\nknow what to do.

Can\nanyone suggest anything, any work\nI could do or any place I could live\nwhere I could be happy? 1 have\nforgotten how It feels to be satisfied and glad to be alive.\"\nThe first thing I would like to\nremind this woman is that 64 is\nnot by any means too old to be in'\ndependent if the will ls there. She\nsays she is not strong, But again,\nit she really had the will, it might\nbe perfectly possible for her to improve her health.\nShe says site cannot work because she has no experience that\nshe can offer to .any prospective\nemployer. Doesn't she know that\nmany large department stores\u2014and\nthere are large department stores\nWithin'easy reach of where this\nwoman lives\u2014are glad to take in.\nexperienced women and train them\nas sales girls? Right now, in this\npre-Chrlstmas shopping rush, stores\nare looking for extra sales people,\nIf she had the initiative to pull herself together and go. Into the city\nnear which she lives, she could undoubtedly find herself a selling Job\nwhich would give her some pin\nmoney at least, and it might be an\nopening to more permanent work.\nIt is hard to have the Initiative\nto pull oneself out of a rut and\nstart off in a now direction. But\nthousands ot women, JUst as old as\nthis correspondent, have done so,\nand she can do it, too, I am sure,\n.If she really wants to.\nLesson From U.

Given a\nsimple, understandable recipe, good\ningredients and a candy themome-\nter, there's no reason why even the\nmost amatuer cook can't turn out\ndelicious candy,\nSince most candies must be\ncooked fo a deflhte temperature the\nthermometer should be clipped to\nthe edge of the pan before the mixture starts to cok, It must be completely coyered with boiling syrup\nbut is shouldn't rest on the bottom\nof the pan. When the temperature\nIs read, one's eyes should be level\nwith the mercury. (-\nNECESSARY EQUIPMENT\nOther equipment should Include\na pan large enough to allow for\nboiling, and heavy enough to prevent ingredients from scorching, a\ntwo-tlned fork for dipping, a wooden spoon for beating, a spatula, wax\npaper, metal baking sheets, a platter, standard measuring cups and\nspoons. ;-'\";.',;\nTesting candy ln cold- water for\nsoft ball, hard ball, etc, is useful\nbut not acurate. (It Is much better\nto use candy thermometer,) But if\ncold water test is Used, try one or\ntwo drops at a time. When candy\nbegins tp test, remove gently from\nheat so that it will not over-cook\nwhile test is being made.\nOrange Sugared Walnuts is an\neasy reicpe for the beginner, and\nthe result makes a most pleasing\nchange from the more familiar\nsalted nuts.

It is a 'development\nthat has kept step with the growth of\nthe City and District in other directions, and one that can be expected to\nmaintain its progress.\nThis developing \u25a0 interest in the\ncrafts and the arts assures an ever-\nricher life for the community, and\ntheir devotion can only bring credit to\nthose who are its advocates, participants and patrons.\nWe already have the Summer skating School, a dancing school, Photographic Club, art classes and exhibitions\nnot purely local\u2014leather workers, and\nwood carvers; there is a great love of\nmusic as exemplified by Nelson's entries to the Kootenay Musical Festival\nand its busy music teachers. The library, once a small reading-room, has\na large membership, Including a children's section that is popular and useful. ......\nAdded to these is the revival of the\nNelson Little Theatre Group which, in\ncommon with similar organizations\nacross Canada, is trying to make spoken drama as popular as it is in places\nwith much longer histories\u2014Toronto,\nMontreal, Ottawa, London (Ont.), not.\nto mention England, where the theatre\nas well as the movie is part of the people's daily life,      .\nThe ainp of these Little Theatres is\nnot.to educate, out to provide a pleasant change from the ordinary routine\nchannel:: and to accustom the younger\nmembers to hearing plain speech clear?\nly enunciated. It is in this way these\ngroups are doing good work. There is\nno question of competing with the*\nmovies, Any actor, stage or screen, cani\nlearn much from films. Each have their\nown piace in the entertainment world\n\u2014but spoken drama belongs to tradition, and in small towns only by the\npersistent efforts of amateurs can plays\nbe heard in their own location, the theatre. Audiences have to be patient with\nall Little Theatres.

Each year tht Christmas season ls ushered\nin by tha singing of carols and hymns, and\nwo hear again the familiar ahd ever-beautiful\nsongs which have been handed down through- -\nout the centuries.\nIt is an ancient ond lovely custom, barkening back to the olden days when carols were\nsung in the streets by- waifs and minstrels,\n' We like to think that tha first carol ever\nsung waa by tha angel chorus -on that first\nChristmas' Eve, nearly 2000 years ago. How-\nevor, it was not until tha 13th century that\nwo find tha beginning of the true Christmas\ncarol, and Italy as Its birthplace. From there\nthe carol spread to Spain, France, England,\nand other European countries, where it retained its folk-song'qualities ot legendary lore -\nand childlike simplicity, with a mingling of\nreverence and genial mlrthfulness.\nThe beginning of the 18th century marked\nthe transition from the true carol to 'the more\ndignified and aolemn Christmas hymn. Tha\n19th century brought the beautiful \"Silent\nNight, Holy Night,\" also \"Little Town of Bethlehem,\" written by Phillip Brooks and inspired\nby a Christmas Eve spent ln Bethlehem,\nThus, Christmas carols have lived through\ntha centuries, and they are Just as well-loved\ntoday aa they ever, were.\nletters to\nThe editor\nt-attara may ba published over a nom\nde plume, but the actual name of tha\nwriter must ba,given to tha Editor ai evidence of good faith.

And Basu-\ntoland. isn't the only part1 of the\ndark, continent where primitive\npractices are. found. f-\nNow1 if that were the whole story\nwe might dismiss it as a hangover\npeculiar to Africa, But the fact is\nthat In many other countries, ot\nboth hemispheres, one finds astonishing examples of barbarism and\neven savagery. I've encountered a\nlot myself.\nGetting back to Basutoland, the\nbodies of 293 victims of ritual murder have been found by police ln\nthe last seven years.

The Gold Coast ls another area\nwhere this horror still persists.\nThese present-day ritual murders\nin Africa frequently consist of cutting the victim to pieces while he\nis still alive, The sacrifice is made\nto ward off evils or bring good fortune, and ln that sense are religious, i\nOf course such-practices aren't\nconfined to Africa, Voodoolsm, Involving human sacrifice, Is found\nln some Isolated parts of the West\nIndies, and other\/rites Involving the\ntaking ot human life are carried out\nin primitive parts of the Far East,\nMuch more common than tha\nhorrors ot ritual murder are practices involving the supernatural,\nand I have encountered these in\nmany parts of the world.
