Joan B. Everything seems to fall flat for Cora. Cora L. I just fill up time. Joan B. I am very much con cerned about my good friend, who is a midle-aged woman a widow with two married child ren living in differentt cities. She has a part-time job and a small income left to her by her husband. Her situation in life may sound ideal, yet she is very lonely and unhappy. I have tried to interest Cora in certain clubs and volunteer work I like. It just doesn't seem to take. She is a well-educated, intelligent woman and the usual routine jobs Bore her. I have suggested that she do more en tertaining and gadding about, but this too seems to fall flat. It seems to me that Cora ought to marry again, but as she points, out, free men of her age are few and far between. Never theless, I'm pretty sure this is the answer and she should make the effort. Cora L. How does one go about making an effort to do something for which one has no inclination? All my friends say marry, marry, marry, yet I don't see them producing the men to marry. , . I am one of those unfortunate individuals who have a good over-all knowledge of many things, but a talent for nothing. Routine bores me, petty details drive me wild. When I join a club and they give me post cards to address or lessons in hand weaving, I know I've had it. My children, my friends, my relatives are all busy with their own affairs. I entertain and visit occasionally, but it doesn't fill up the long, empty hours. Every thing I do is just a matter of filling up time, making the days pass. Is this the way to live? Surely there must be more meaning, more sense in life than this. Th Council: Cora's sense of futility and boredom seems to be based in a deep, underlying sense of being left out of life. She points out other people are busy, apparently with things that really concern them, but she alone must use activity to make time pass. She seems to feel other people could give her something worthwhile, if they had less concern about their own affairs and a little more interest in her. Cora should recognize, how ever, that it is not others who have left her out of life. She has shut herself out. Their af fairs really concern them be cause they bring warmth, love and enthusiasm to even "petty details." Those who are able to contribute more than the routine tasks owe it to themselves and to others to make this contribu tion. Of course, one cannot expect to join a club and be immediate ly delegated to policy-making jobs. One cannot expect a "tal ent" or an enthusiasm to descend on one like a halo. Talents are developed through effort, en thusiasms are created by a na ture seeking and fighting for expressions, for things and per sons to love. Marriage happy marriage is an outgrowth of full and happy living, not a way out of a dilemma or a means of filling up emptiness. It would not give Cora the "meaning" she seeks. Perhaps it would help Cora to recognize that her individuality is absolutely unique. She un doubtedly has something to of fer, and somebody or something needs what she can give. But only she can find the form of her contribution.

Peasant Look To Be Tops in Ski Fashions PRINT SPORTSWEAR FOR 1958... was introduced by San Francisco Designer Stephanie Koret at California National Press Week. Something new i3 the chino cotton print T-shirt ac cented with cotton ribbing worn with sleek matching print pants. Bv MARY PRIME United Press Staff Writer Sun Valley, Ida. W A ski fashion expert predicts that skiers will be comin' down the mountains next year in peasant style clothes. Fred Picard, who owns a shop in this resort, says the peasant look will be tops in both ski fashions and after-ski styles in 1958. He designs sports clothes and has been technical advisor to two consecutive Olympic uniform committees. Picard expects peasant designs to dominate styles of jackets, skirts, vests, sweaters and boots because "the peasant look fits in with the mountains." He also expects a trend to bul ky lines instead of slender lines especially in ski outfits of con trasting colors. Jackets will be heavier looking, often quilted, but still light in weight. The reason for bulk, he said, is that skiers want more comfort on the slopes. The Slender Look One material which should be popular is upholstery fabric, combined with quilted linings. Picard shows one such jacket which comes in only two sizes but which fits almost any wo- i man. ! Ski pants will continue to have a slender look next year I and must be as well fitted as slacks. Picard said, "but not too tight." He is fighting the under-1 i . . - . i , . 1 wcai iuuk puyuiar in r.urope the German-made ski pants I which are so tight they seem ! molded to the skin. 1 Picard predicted that color will be even more Important in 19D8. He said violet and pumpkin-orange should be popular for both jackets and pants. Outfits either will match, giv ing a one-piece look, or will con trast sharpley. Picard does not limit colorful clothes to women. He believes men soon will turn from con servative navy and black ski pants to bright colored pants, either matching or contrasting with jackets. f Refrozen Food Poor Researcher Declares Chicago (IP) Housewives often are told not to refreeze food that has thawed or partially thawed. Most accept the advice without really knowing the rea son why. A University of Illinois food researcher said re-frozen food won't taste as good nor will it have as good a color or appear ance. The texture also may be changed because the freezing, thawing, and refreezing process could cause some of the food cells to break down. Actually nothing harmful hap pens if the food has not reached the temperature at which bac teria start multiplying. The food can be safely refrozen if it still has a few Ice crystals.

Cover with white sauce, to which green peppers have been added. iu3iuigia jaia reason Women Coecf Antiques New York OP! Noslalgia is the main reason women col lect antiques, says a dealer. "You start by trying to dupli cate or replace an object you remember fondly from a child hood home," said Walter du Ver rier, who exhibited his collection at the New York Antiques fair. "Next thing you know, you're furnishing a home, or at least ac cessorizing it, with relics of past ages," he added. Du Verrier suggested reading widely on the general subject of antiques. "Then narrow your studies to a particular field. Visit museums and restorations. Shop around. And ask questions," he said. STUDENTS WORK Grand Teton National Park, Wyo.
