o o 0 o O Q o As We Live Free) Time Is Valuable; Put It Too Good Use People today have more free time to do as they please than ever before. Do theyuse it to therf ' satisfac tion or do they fritter it away and have nothing to show for it? It depends upon how carefully they plan ahead. If you are a Dr. Hexlock leisure - time fritterer, what I am going to sug gest may help you solve . this problem. And, it is well worth trying to solve because leisure time can be a great asset, just as it can be a great liability. Peo ple who do not know how to use their leisure time get bored. They get into the habit of work ing at part-speed and sometimes of killing time by drinking, gambling, or even breaking laws. Here are some suggestions for using leisure time wisely: 1. Plan ahead as to how this time will be used. Anything that is worth; doing requires some fanning. If you get up in the Snorning with no plans, the chances are you will spend part of the day trying to decide what you want to do and how you will . do it. A plan made ahead will eliminate this wasted time. Equalize Leisure Time 4 2. Try to equalize .the leisure time of every member of the family. A man who works 40 hours a week has much more free time than his wife who never has a day off, or even part of "a day, unless someone helps her with her work.

There will be no feelings of guilt on the part of those who have the most free time and no re sentment on the part of those who have the least. 3. Devote part of your leis ure time to self-improvement. This may mean attending adult education classes, going to the library, to concerts and lectures, or improving your earning abil ity by learning more about the work you are doing. This can be pleasureable and it certainly is a good investment in the future. 4. Devote part of your leisure time to serving your community. There are constant demands for the help of men and women in various community organizations connected with churches, schools, hospitals and charity groups.. Offer your services to them. q LETTERS FROM HEADERS Sulkiness: "Why do some peo ple sulk so much that they, go around with an angry look on their faces all the time? Don't they realize thai this detracts from their looks and repulses people?" Curious Reader (A) People who sulk most of the time believe that the world is against thent, that they are getting a raw deal in life, and that people are intentionally try ing to hurt them. They have a chip - on-the-shoulder attitude which is reflected in their facial expressions. They could see how this affects 'their looks if they bothered to look at themselves in the mirror, but -to them that is not as important as their hurt feelings. Furthermore, believing that the world is against them they have little incentive to try to win the friendship of others by a cheerful expression and a happy smile. Masculine Supremacy: "I have been married for three months and am running into the prob lem of 'masculine supremacy.' My husband was as kind and thoughtful as anyone could be during our engagement. Now he expects me to wait on him and never offers to help me at home. He claims that is ' 'woman's work.' Should I accept his at titude?" Troubled Bride. (A) You are obviously not "ac cepting" ypur husband's attitude or his treatment of you too graci ously or you would not have written for advice about it. As the years go by, you may be more disturbed by it, than you are now and you may find it very difficult not to be able to count on him for' any help at home should you have children. Now is the time to try to nip this attitude in the bud, if you can. Talk it over with him and see if you cannot persuade him to put your marriage on more of a partnership basis. Buying ear: "Why is it mat high school boys of today want to buy a car as soon as they earn any money?" (A) To a teenage boy, a. car means two things independence and prestige in the eyes of his classmates, especially the girls. Few boys realize that buying a car is only part of the expense involved. (COPYRIGHT 1955. GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) Method Described for Ironing Out Scratches Chicago (U.R) Now you can "iron" dents and scratches from furniture and woodwork. A new gadgetf for furniture mending has a flat-iron "tip which fits onto a soldering iron, and works like this: Apply a drop of water on the dent, place a damp ironing cloth upon it and put the flat-iron tip directly over the dent. Pull the trigger on the soldering gun and hold" until the cloth is dry. The steam which results will cause ,the wood to swell in the dentechspot. Small dents disappear within 30 seconds, the manufacturer says. On deeper dents the "iron ing" can be repeated until the dent goes away. The gadget also can be used for heat-sealing waxpaper pack ages, plastic bags and the like. usr ntr to minor nu nurnnonai axpom rovtai vitamin louoi in teek.d foods, plus faulty did may bo orioutly undermining your tnirgy, itr.ngth, and rtiiltanc., making you fool en dg aff.cting your appotito spoil ing your sloop become your fcody is vi tamin end iron ttomd.
