Rhyme and Reason
By LOUISE METEER
Mother works from early morning
Till the evening sun is set,
Baking, washing, ironing, sewing
And we seldom hear her fret.
She is first to reach the bedside
When she hears a wailing cry
Always poised for flight at table
To get bread, or jam or pie.
Mother's good and she is gentle
And she tends to all our ills;
She says Father's pretty lucky,
He just has to pay the bills.
Mother says a man's life's easy
With his feet beside the grate
He can sit down to the table
And he never has to wait.
He can read the evening paper
With its politics and thrills,
Not a thing to worry Father.
He just has to pay the bills.
Mother says his life is simple;
Never has to curl his hair;
He can get a paunchy middle
And there's no one who will care.
And she says her closet's empty
Since the new look came to stay
And she must keep looking stylish
Cause a woman's made that way.
Dad is lucky, says our mother,
His blue serge is clothes need fills.
Women have so many problems.
Father's...just to pay the bills!
Unless a woman has been placed in the position usually occupied by the head of the household, she cannot possibly know the grave, even burdensome sense of responsibility that is his.
To look upon your dependents, knowing that in the final analysis it is up to you, dead or alive, to see that they have enough food in their mouths, proper medical and dental attention, adequate housing, and not only warm but pretty clothes, is no matter to be treated lightly.
It has been said that every time a child is born his parents are signed up for another 21 years at hard labor. Only Dad can know how true that is. Nor does it end with 21 years, since often he is the bulwark of defense for the younger generation and its children long after they have left the home nest.
To want for your children the best that is enjoyed by their friends, although your equipment to do so is inferior to that possessed by the wage earner next door can bring overwhelming discouragement, particularly when you are driven by the long and ever growing lists of "I wannas" from within your home.
Some women pride themselves that they are the power behind the throne, but interpret that fact not through encouragement and faith, but through the wielding of an iron hand in a velvet glove that sometimes hold a whiplash.
No man should let his wife dictate to him in such matters as when to ask for a raise, how to ask for it, or even whether the request should be made at all. Talking it over is one thing, but tears and cajolery are something else. A deaf ear is a handy thing to posses. Turn it.
NEW YORK (UPI) — Diet to lose pounds gradually, not to "crash" diet the body into ill health.
"Although an early weight loss is desirable as an incentive to the dieter, the aim should be to lose only one or two pounds every week," says Dr. Michael H. K. Irwin, medical officer for the United Nations.
"Crash diets, although sometimes encouraging because they enable a person to lose weight quickly, often makes the person feel weak and are damaging to the body," he says.
"If the person abandons his diet, gains weight, and then returns to the diet, the resultant frequent fluctuations of weight can be even more harmful than remaining overweight."
Widespread Problem

"If the person abandons his diet, gains weight, and then returns to the diet, the resultant frequent fluctuations of weight can be even more harmful than remaining overweight."
Widespread Problem
The physician made known his views and those of others in the medical profession in a new publication of the Public Affairs Committee, a non-profit educational organization with headquarters here. Called "Overweight — A Problem for Millions", the author says to be specific it's a problem for 25 million persons.
"Conservative estimates" indicate that about 20 million persons in the United States are 10 per cent or more overweight and some five million are at least 20 per cent overweight.
In addition to being uncomfortable, overweight is a danger to a person's health", says Irwin. "Heart disease, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, diabetes, osteoarthritis (the kind of arthritis occurring with older people) and many
COME LEARN NOW! — Orange Coast College home economics instructor, Mrs. Patricia Morgan, shows how to blend chicken, artichoke hearts, tomato slices and grapefruit sections into California Salad. This is one of many recipes she'll share with Orange County women at a cooking school at the Lido Theater in Newport Beach, Oct. 29, Nov. 5, 12 and 19.
WSCS Funds Supported by Coming Sale
Mrs. Louise Clem and Cleta Messenger state that they are expecting to have a good amount of used clothing, toys, dishes, games, records and all sorts of other treasures for the Annual Rummage Sale of the Women's Society of Christian Service of the Orange Methodist Church.
Sale dates will be October 29 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and Oct. 30th from 9 a.m. until 12 noon. There will be a lunch room where desserts, sandwiches and coffee may be purchased.
Cooking School Is Forerunner of Holiday Food Extravanganza

Cooking School Is Forerunner of Holiday Food Extravanganza
Orange Coast College's 1964 taste-tested soups, salads, pies cooking school will feature taste-tested soups, salads, pies, cakes, dishes from other nations and holiday dinners.
Taste-testing for the Oct. 29, and Nov. 5, 12, and 19, school sessions at the Lido Theater in Newport Beach was carried out by Gerald Ellis, OCC Evening College associate dean.
Ellis' reaction to "Manicotti with Cheese Filling" was, "Mmmm." The Italian holiday dish, large-size macaroni stuffed with ricotta and mozzarella cheeses, hand-cooked eggs, parsley and parmesan cheese, and covered with a rich sauce, was prepared by Gerry Gerkin, senior home economist for the Southern Counties Gas Co., who will be a cooking school instructor.
A "California Salad," prepared by Mrs. Pairicia Mogan, OCC home economics instructor, and a cooking school teacher, brought a request for a second helping from Ellis. The salad is a tossed mixture of cubes of chicken, artichoke hearts, green onions, tomato slices, avocado slices, chopped ripe and green olives and grapefruit sections. The dressing is prepared with grapefruit juice, vinegar, oil and a variety of herbs.
Another Gerry Gerkin creation put to the test by Ellis was "Chicken with Bamboo," a combination of chicken, shrimp mushroom, bamboo shoots, and peas in a sauce made of chicken stock, and sweetened soy sauce. "I like it," was all Ellis could manage before he was served the next dish.
Mrs. Mogan produced "Flaming Caramel Flan," a rich custard dessert, sugar coated, garnished with fruit, and placed on the table in a halo of blue fire. "No more, please," Ellis said, after the second helping.
In addition to recipes prepared by Mrs. Mogan and Gerry Gerkin, cooking school students will receive instruction in chafing dish cookery from Victor Bennett, captain of service at the Villa Fontana restaurant in Orange.
The cooking school is sponsored by OCC, Richard's Market, the Southern Counties Gas Co., manufactures and the Lido Merchants Association.
Each Thursday cooking school session will be from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Merchandise prizes will be awarded at each session.
The school will be open to the public without charge. Each person who attends the school will receive a set of taste-tested recipes for the dishes discussed during the instructional sessions.
You can shop for a living Christmas tree any time now. It will make a wonderful tubbed plant for porch or terrace be-tween now and the holiday season.

Avoid 'Crash' When Dieting
WORK (UPI) — Diet to pounds gradually, not to diet the body into ill health an early weight desirable as an incentive meter, the aim should be only one or two pounds each," says Dr. Michael Irwin, medical officer United Nations.
Irwin said that almost all cases of overweight are caloric intake caused — "if the energy value of the food consumed is equivalent to the energy the body uses, weight remains constant."
He pooh-poohs the often heard comment that "overweight runs in the family". It's the body structure that's inherited, not the pounds, he says.
To Irwin the proper way to lose pounds is to cut the caloric intake, exercise moderately each day because exercise tones the muscles and aids circling habits so that once lost pounds are not regained.
The overweight must have a balanced diet while reducing—one built on the four basic food groups which include dairy products, fruits and vegetables, cereals, and meats.

Short Order Is Rule for Supper
When you have only minutes to organize a nourishing meal for the family, look to your canned soup shelf. There are so many kinds to fill out the menu and the flavors combine so well with many quick-to-fix foods. Suppose you scramble eggs and serve them with toast and a healthy rasher of bacon—a delectable complement to this is "Potage Soup-reme." Combine 1 can each condensed tomato, beef noodle and bean with bacon soups. Stir until smooth. Blend in two cans of water. Heat thoroughly. Makes 6 servings.
