CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, Morch 13, 1958 THE ~ TIMELESS A WEEKLY MESSAGE FROM TOPICS CASTLEGAR MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION | ’ By Archdeacon Resker Member: Conadian Weekly Assn. OPEN LETTER TO THE CASTLEGAR VILLAGE COMMISSIONERS AND ELECTORS We who live in the. Village of Castlegar belong to a new and flourishing Community. We have most interests in common, that is what ‘Community’ means, In all Communities from the family through our Dominion and Com- monwealth, the United Nations Sight through to the greatest ity of all, the i Kingdom of God, there must be unity and cooperation if there is to be happiness and real pros- perity. Homes are broken up by disunity; the world lives terrible fear because of the lack f real unity in the so called United Nations. Where there are «constant squabbles there can be no happiness and efficiency. May I beg all our citizens ‘and especially those who re- cBresent us on the Village Com- in|. mission to begin to pull together in the interests of the good of our Village and so to uphold its reputation in the rest of the province, 1 often wonder what other communities think of Castlegar as they so frequently hear of the squabbles in our Commission. TOLERANCE is a@ great vir- tue which stems from the teach- ing of Jesus Christ. When a per- son js tolerant he recognizes that there are at least two sides to every question. We need ‘tol- erance in all our political and social relationships; in our Vil- lage and in National politics (which should be so much in our mind as March 31 gets near- er).We ‘should try to look for GOOD in everyone and not the bad, The Golden Rule applies to all phases of our social life, We need to pray that little prayer I mentioned recently in this column, not only with T.V.

The Bearded Ones With such a choice of face fungus to choose from, most men wore some visible sign of their virility, and like the earlier equally widely bearded era of the Renaissance it was a vigor- ous, masculine culture, Other such periods we might mention as well — include the Hebrews patriarchs and prophets, the Greek philosophers, the fierce and daring Vikings and the fearless Spanish explorers of the sixteenth century—bearded to a man if the dog-catcher looks at you with a puzzled expression every time you pass him, get rid of it, After You Madam. And for the benefit of a certain lady columnist who has unwisely raised her head again, I offer the following thoughts: The first is from Clement of Al- exandria, one of the Church fathers, and manfully bearded, who said ‘in effect that it was clear that God intended woman to be smooth and ailly, exulting in her hair alone, like a horse in its mane, But a man He ad- orned with a beard like a lion, making him tough, with a hairy chest, for such is the emblem of strength and empire. The second is from Voltaire, great man of letters, phi and wit, who Walk In The The trouble with this mod- ern masculine gesture of defience which requires some major local, incial or national i ocassion as its starting point, smacks for me at least, too much 'y is maternity, never. No man can never be absolutely certain that he has fathered a child and so fulfilled his biological destiny. The birth of a child to a wo- men establishes her destiny once and for all. It is possible there- fore that men, fettered by this nagging shadow on their man- hood and unsatisfied with the more exalted but less personal honour of belonging to the sex which has produced the greatest} paintings, sculptures, prose and poetry, as well as the greatest thinkers in science and philoso- phy and religion. Which is in fact unique in every field of human endeavor, except one— maternity, are seeking some more immediate and conerete means of establishing their in- dividual claim to maleness by the growing of a beard. And Their Challenge These gentlemen therefore, whether thy admit or not, are in effect issuing a challenge and ing a claim to d. They are in effect challenging Women’s Rights in the only manner left to them as. individ- uals — by growing a beard, Like their Victorian forebearers and eariler ancestors down through the ages, they recognize that the beard is an agressive symbol of male domination but unlike our Victorian forebearers they have lest most of their confidence to display it. Did these earlier, bother their heads about Wo- men’s Rights and similar non- sense? They did not. Their beards were an answer to all such fin- looker and flapdoodle. And to make sure that there was no doubt of two wore, the pants and the beard in the family, they showed up in a bewildered variety of ‘Mutton-chops’ ‘Dun- dreary’, ‘Navals', ‘Full’, ‘Imperi- als', ‘Spades’ and” possibly an unclassified collection of ‘shawl- See B.C, in Centennial Year — you'll wait 100 years for another chance like this!

That is, lif you have the stamina and j patience to endure the sight of jpablum and strained carrots | masking his angelic little face. it the baby happens to be a |strcng vigorous boy baby, then !.he sport is even greater, Books on scientific baby care are a great help, they tell you in great detail just where, when and how to go about training the baby to feed himself. What they do not tip you off about though, is the hazards. of these test and tried methods. or instance, the book says, the necessary utensils “needed Yor the baby’s meal, then you wragp. the baby firmly, settle him in his high chair, and with .a cheerful confident air, (which -yau probably are far from feel- ing) you proceed to spoon the ‘food into his. mouth. [t sounds so easy and uncomplicated. Another thing the book does not tell you,.is what to do when the baby refuses to open his mouth, this in itself can become quite a problem, however, as the bock says, above all things one must keep calm, never at anytime let your frustation show.. You might try eating a few spoonfuls yourself, just as an example, the baby seems to enjoy this, so just for good mea- sure you eat a few more spoon- fuls, being very careful not to gag, gad, how I hate pablum. At this stage of the game By GLADYS Reflections COLLINSON the baby has usually become even more uncooperative, per- haps, you think in desperation, he would do much better were he just given the bowl and spoon and allowed to feed him- self. Obviously, this is what he jhas been angling for all along. This baby in particular, bless his impish little heart, suddenly est in his food. He even manages to get part of every’ wobbly messy spoonful into his mouth. The scientific baby books do not advise this, but,.I have found through experience that it much better not to watch this self-feeding process, it makes things easier all round if you just go quietly into another room and count very slowly to a hun- dred or so. By this,time the baby should have most of his food disposed of in one way or another, and, us I have pointed out to my daughter before, ‘there is abso- lutely no need to get excited, just beause she can’t stand bread and gravy, or applesauce, drip- ping from an up-turned bowl, down her neck, there is no rea- son what so ever to believe that her son does not thoroughly en- joy the sensation. Some people like to: do things one way and some anoth- er, therefore when the baby mixes his egg yolk in -his hair instead of putting it into his mouth, he should not be dis- couraged, after all he is only trying to be helpful.

This business of baby feed- ing can become serious, you can either become a soggy - nervous toe with pablum, or you. can look the baby straight in the eye and pretend that you are the boss. This last try of course will avail you nought, except perhaps, you will receive an utterly charming drippy smile and the next spoonful of his egg yolk right between the eyes, Personally speaking, even from the view point of a doting grandmother, I would suggest that the most efficiant and least nerve wracking way of feeding a 15 month old baby is, simply to walk out the door,. closing it firmly behind you, letting your children feed their own baby.
