Loretta Orgain, junior can- HOW TO DEAL WITH YOUR TENSIONS The quest for peace of mind er for good mental health, which is another name for it is universal. We have to work to achieve it. Following is one of a few simple, ready-to-hand actions which may help you. ESCAPE FOR A WHILE Sometimes, when things go wrong, it helps to escape from the painful problem for a while : to lose yourself in a movie or a book or a game, or a brief trip for a change of scene. Making yourself "stand there and suf fer" is a form of self-punishment, not a way to solve a problem. It is perfectly realistic Published as a puhhr service in co-operation with The Advertising Council and the Newspaper Advertising Executives Association, INlews didate, was crowned queen of the dance. Her escort was Dave Gardner. The princesses were Marilyn Valentine, freshmen, Joann Yates, soph omore; and Joyce Moore, sen escorts were Mick Ring, Robin Hedgpeth, and Richard Robin son.

Dolly M Why don't they treat an older person with respect? . Frances D. My mother is a widow in her late 50s. Not having worked for some 30 years, she recently took a job in a neighborhood shop. I hated to see her go to work, but Mother says she is better off working. One day, however, I came into the shop and Mother looked as though she was passing out on her feet. Just the same, her em ployer told her to hurry up and do something she had ne glected. Mother complains that he treats her like that all the time. Mother can get by with out this salary, so I don't see why she should take that kind of guff from anyone. Dolly M. Frances makes me feel like a real old wo man when she tells me how awful it is that I should have to work so hard. The work is hard, true, but I can take it. If I didn't work hard I'd brood around the house. The work isn't what I care about anyway. It's the disre spect. Can't people realize that they shouldn't just make demands on an older person send her running this way and that and never a please or thank you? Young women come in and demand service in the program. Each home room will be striving for a 100 per cent student partici pation. The McLoughlin PTA met Jan. 16.

New Ages KKan Has Lot of Territory; Official Installation Due Jan. 23 Karachi, Pakistan 0PI As spiritual leader of the 20 mil lion - strong Moslem Ismaili sect, the new Aga Khan has a lot of territory to cover. The new Aga's faithful fol lowers range from Nairobi in Africa to Chitral near the Russo - Chinese border, and from Singapore to Buenos Aires. Prince Karim, a 21-year-old Harvard undergraduate, will be officially installed in Ka rachi as Aga Khan IV next Thursday, Jan. 23, although he assumed the title in a tok en ceremony last summer. As such, he is regarded by the Ismailis, a Moslem sect particularly strong in Africa, India and Pakistan, as the 49th lineal descendant of Hazrat Ali, the son-in-law of the prophet Mohammed. Ismailis from such widely diverse places as Argentina and Goa are expected to at tend the lavish ceremony. Many Will Attend They will be joined by their fellow believers from Pakis tan, Iran, Iraq, Bahrein, Ku wait, Malaya, Singapore, Cey lon, India, Burma, Lebanon, Syria, England, France, Bel gium, Africa and probably Brazil. So big is the expected turn- from me, fast as if I were a teenager or something. It's hard for' me to get work, so I can't change jobs. The Council: Many older persons complain of just this problem. It is true that cust omers and employers are often inconsiderate and even rude, but Dolly should rec ognize that this will bother her less and less as she gains confidence in her ability to handle the job. Dolly should realize that she is making a tremendous psychological adjustment. For 30 years she has been boss in her own home. She had complete independence and, despite the hard work in volved, considered herself rather a queen in her own household. Now she not only must take orders from a boss and from customers, but is hardly rec ognized as an individual at all. She is merely looked upon as a service. It's a very big change to make, and it is natural that Frances .too should be upset by her moth er's "comedown." Both Dolly and Frances should remember that dis courtesy is far more of a re flection on the person who de livers it than the one who re ceives it. Unfortunately, a certain amount of brusque ness is inevitable in the busi ness world and Dolly should learn to accept this without hurt. In a sense, she should be pleased that she is treated as naturally as though she had been working all these years and that nobody even notices she is an "older person."
