Mother Shipton's Prophecies "WHAT YOUNG PEOPLE THINK" died very aged Her epitaph is: She was born in Norfolk and Clifton, Yorkshire, A. 1449. Here lies one who never ly'd. Whose skill has been often tried: Her prophecies shall still survive, And ever keep her name alive. PHOPHECIES Carriages without horses shall go, And accidents shall fill the world with woe.

Primrose Hill in London shall be. And in its centre a Bishop's See. Around the world thoughts shall fly In the twinkling of an eye. Waters shall yet more wonders do, How strange, yet shall be true, The world upside down shall be, And gold found at the root of trees. Through hills men shall ride, And no horse or ass by tlieir side.

Under water men shall walk, Shall ride, shall sleep, and talk. In the air men shall be seen, In white, in black, and in green. A great man shall come and go! Iron in the water shall float. As easy as a wooden boat. And gold shall be found In a land that's not now known.

Fire and water shall more wonders do. England shall at last admit a Jew. The Jew that was held in scorn Shall of Christian be born. A horse of glass shall come to pass In England. But Alas! War will follow with the work In the land of the Pagan and Turk.

State and State in fierce strife Will seek each other's life. But when the North shall divide the South, An eagle shall build in the lion's mouth. Taxes for blood and war Will come to every door. Three times shall lovely Franch Belled to play a bloody dance, Before her people shall be free Three tryant rulers shall she see: Three rules in succession see, Each spring from different dynasty. Then shall the worser fight be done, England and Prance shall be as one.

The British Olive next shall twine. In marriage with German vine. Men shall walk over rivers and under rivers. All England's sons that plow the land Shall be seen book in hand. Learning shall so ebb and flow.

The poor shall most wisdom know. Waters shall flow where corn shall grow, Corn shall grow where water doth flow, Houses shall appear in the vales below, And covered by hail and snow. at Culture Exchanges May Soothe World, By EUGENE GILBERT President of the Gilbert Youtit Research Co. If teen agers have their way, diplomats of the future may hnve to take up the piano and join in native folk to promote world peace and harmony. Culture, they feel, is the key to international understanding, including that with Soviet Russia.

Answering our pollsters across the country, 85 per cent jof the teen agers interviewed said they favored a cultural exchange between the United States and the U.S.S.R. Of these, 80 per cent firmly believed that a cultural exchange would improve political relations. The rest were not so optimistic, but felt that any kind of friendly exchange was better than a continuing cold war. "What conferences haven't done, culture and friendship may be able to do," suggested 19-year- old Robert Graf of Philadel.hia. But when it came to going to Russia, many teen agers thought in terms of pianist Van Cliburn and the University of Washington rowing crew rather than themselves.

In answer to the question, "Would you like to go to Russia as a member of some cultural or athletic group?" only a little more than half of the teen agers interviewed said yes. Girls (47 per cent) were less anxious to see Moscow than the boys (56 per cent). But Not as Guests Similarly, 77 per cent of the teeners favored a student exchange between Russia and the United States, but only 64 per cent would like to have a Russian student living in their homes. Girls, at 79 per-cent, were more in favor of a student exchange than the boys (75 per cent) but when It came to housing a Russian student, the distaff vote dropped to 62 per cent. "We don't have a large enough house," demurred 17-year-old Sharon White of Portland, Ore.

Walter Weisel of Ohio, said he was choosy about his house guests and "I don't like or trust the Russians." Teen agers favoring a cultural, athletic and student exchange with Ru.ssia argued that at least it might dispel some of the mistrust between the two nations. Ignorance breeds mistrust," insisted Eileen Healy, 18, of Chickasaw, Ala. "By exchanging cultural ideas the two countries are each putting forth the best part of the life in their countries." Wary of Russians The 15 per cent who opposed increased cultural exchanges with Russia felt we were consorting with an enemy who cannot be trusted.

"Their exchanges invariably are filled with bad propaganda," said Jane Carson, 17, of Norwood, Ohio. Walter Howley of Cbral Gables, felt that Uncle Sam will come out of the short end of any dealings with Russia, whether it's ballet or ballistics missiles. "I don't think," he argued, "that our visiting delegations ever learn anything in Russia, whereas they can go where they want here and are always profiting. In addition, none of their delegates go home and preach how perfectly wonderful it is here." Dick Ayer of Merchantville, N. a 15-year-old student of the political scene, feared that Russia might slip a few military experts into the middle of a glee club or ballet troupe.

"Then they could locate our airbases and plan an attack," he warned. Some of those favoring a cultural exchange with Russia were wary too but felt in the long run that some good would be accomplished, particularly among the Russians who visit here, "They get a chance to see how we really live and how valuable freedom is," said 15-year-old Mary Houser, of Peeksill, N.

There are easy hands to play in bridge, and there are tough ones. The easy ones don't teach us much, but the tough ones are not only challenging and interesting but also instructive. Presented here is a defensive play we would classify as difficult. West opens a diamond and East wins with the ace.

What should East play at trick two? The proper return to a club! First, let's examine the effect of the play before we consider the reason lor it. East returns the two of clubs and West's tei: forces the queen. If declarer draws two rounds of trumps and leads the queen of spades, East wins with the king and Kiiitat i club. South must go down since he has to lose two spades, a dian'ond, and a club. But suppose East had not returned a club.

Then declarer would have made losing only two spades and a diamond, since two spade tricks in dummy could be built up in time to take care of club losers. East sees only his own hand and dummy's. But these 26 cards are enough to indicate that only a club has any real chance of defeating the contract. East can't tell who has the ten of clubs, but he assumes the contract will make if South has it and may be defeated it West has it. What East does as defender is count declarer's tricks by looking at dummy.

He assumes five hearts, two spades and a club. This brings South to eight tricks. Since West opened the two of diamonds he cannot have more than four. Therefore declarer is credited with a minimum of three diamonds. But since South can ruff two daimonds in dummy, he has two more tricks available to bring the total to ten.

East cannot afford to sit and wait. His only chance at trick two is to develop a club trick. The club plan may fail if South has the fen, or only two clubs, but if this is the case, no harm will have been done. dance troupes and track teams, but had no illusions of conquering world problems this way. "The majority of the Russians have no control over their government," he said.

"It's all just a lot of mealy- mouthed propaganda," said Albert Arthur of Springfield, who cast his vote with the 15 per cent opposed to doing intellectual business with Russia. But the majority who favored increased cultural and athletic relations had a long list of suggestions for future visits of Kremlin performers. Ballet, folk dancers, Russian violinists, symphony orchestras and track stars led the popularity parade. "I'd like to see one of their baseball claim to have invented the game," suggested 18-year-old Jo Fitzgerald of Norwalk, Conn. Anne Kimmel of Valley Stream, N.

K. brings up the question: "What would be a suitably yearly clothes plan for me and many others like me? I'm just a middle-aged housewife in a small city. I'm 50, weigh 110, 5'4" tail. My hair is grayish brown and eyes yellowish green. I can't describe my Gompexion I guess.

I'm rather hippy. "My activities include the church circle and other church meetings, PTA, golf, a few luncheon and dinner parties, a dance once in a while, plus a vacation trip. If you can help me I teel it will interest many, as a good share of women have similar lives." I cannot believe you are hippy when you are 5'4" and only weigh 110. You are ten pounds der the ideal weight. Anyway, your slim figure is no doubt easy to fit, which is always a help.

I suggest charcoal gray for your basic color. This is good for all seasons. Mix with it plenty of beige and a smidgen of black. And very sparingly introduce two other colors, in blouses and jewelry, for lime and tomato red, Use more of these last two in summer. Perhaps lighter grays, too, depending on your complexion.

Test for yourself. To make a yearly plan, it is wise to assemble three groups of clothes in as many weights: summer, midseason. Mid- season weights serve for spring and fall if seasonally accessorized. These three groups contain the same basic pieces but need 'not be complete repeats becaijse some pieces span the seasons, regardless of weight. This is true of most party clothes.

It also applies to suits which may be worn arately or beneath winter coats. Since fall is imminent, here are i-6me suggestions for your son group; A nubby tweed suit in a mixture of charcoal, beige and black. Accessorize with lime green blouse, beige blouse, beige hat and gloves, black shoes and bag. gold jewelry. One charcoal or beige medium-weight topcoat.

One lightweight wool dress in charcoal. One beige dress, perhaps in winter cotton. One dress in rayon challis could be a lovely Persian print in approximately the colors you are using. Further accessorize these pieces with greiga lizard shoes and bag, lime green hat, tomato red hat and jewelry, gray gloves. These suggestions should take care of activities calling for street clothes.

Choose comfortable costumes for housework in these colors- wrap-arounds or slacks and blouses. I suggest skirts with blouses ie Jackson, Portland, Ore; "I'm not interested in going 7,000 miles to Spieiss, Creve Cour, Mo.

Match shoes and bag to dress; wear gray hat and gloves. Your dancing dress might be beige chiffon or lace with low neck and long sleeves and a full skirt, street length. The jewelry just described should be lovely with this outfit, too. Wear ivory gloves and black satin shoes, carry matched bag. A beige faille coat would be an added luxury for evening wear.

DAILY GAZEITb Fage IHURSDAY, AUGUST 1958' ANN LANDERS Opposition to Daughter's Boy riend Dear Ann Landers: Our beautiful and brilliant daughter, 23, is thinking seriously of throwing her life away on a very average fellow. It's breaking my heart.

We have npthing against the boy but he's not in our daughter's class. She's had all the advantages of fine upbringing and he has had none. At present he does accounting in a small office and is attending law school at night. He has no personality, and rarely says two words to us. I doubt that he owns a suit of I clothes.

The thing that worries me most is that his parents are separated and his dad drifts arouiid the country, showing up only when he needs somethiiig. I keep reminding my daughter of the old saying "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree" but it hasn't I helped her to see the light. Maybe a word from you will open her MOTHER. Put your nose back in joint. Mother.

To borrow an old phrase from Amos and Andy, "Many an offspring springs higher than the offspring it Ann-Landers off oL" If the boy is working during the day and going to law school at night he's got good stuff. This is more important than wheUjer of-not he owns a suit of clothes. He should be congratulated for rising above his environment and you should be proud that your daughter has the maturity to select such a boy. Dear Ann: My husband and I have been married for 16 years. At first was just a social drinker.

I thought little oi it until he began to get socially cockeyed four nights a week. His absentee record at plant got so bad he was demoted. For the past three years he has averaged five cases of beer and three bottles of wlusky a week. I have visited seven clergymen of three faiths, five medical doctors, three social workers, two psychiatrists and a judge. They haven't been able to help ma get my husband to stop drinking.

Can you give me some Do you really want advice, or are you just collecting opinions? From the rounds you've made you surely must have had much good advice poured into your ear. If you wish to add me to the distinguished list, I humbly suggest that you try to get him to attend an A.A. meeting. will meet many people at A.A. who also considered themselves social drinken.

I know from the postmark on your letter that there is no A.A. chapter in your town. The nearest one is in Houston. It will be well worth the trip. Good luck.

Dear Ann: My husband is a good-natured shnook who is in the furniture and appliance business. Several of our friends and relatives have asked him to get things wholesale. He always obliges with a smile. Two girls I play cards with complained last week that the pliances they got through my husband didn't work. I told them to send the merchajidise back to the factory.

They said it was "too much trouble" and brought the appliances to our home and asked my husband to exchange them. He said he'd be happy to. The giris left without so much as a "thank you." I'm very burned up and would like to tell them off. My husband gets nothing out of these wholesale transactions but a lot of static. Shall I tell these dames off and put an end to Why tell them off? If your husband enjoys being a "good-natured shnook" let him.

Simply refuse to be the middleman in these matters. Tell your girl friends to contact your husband directly. Don't take orders, relay messages or adjust complaints. CONFroENTIALLY: SMARTYPANTS: Your letter reflected ignorance and snobbishness. You seem to know the price of tha value of nothing.

Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her care of the Janesville Gazette and enclose a stamped self-addressed envelope. MALE POLISH When in Spaghetti! w. By DON GOODWIN H. Auden once remarked that the greatest insult one can offer anybody is to refuse his food.

"An American," he said, "who refuses to eat the typical food of a country he is visiting is doing more to create ill-will than if he stole it." In many cases, of course, stealing it would be pleasanter. How many Americans, for example, could face that Bedouin delicacy, a sheep's eye? Auden admitted that he himself, confronted in China with large boiled water- beetles, failed miserably. Nevertheless, his point is valid. Americans traveling abroad are more than tourists; they are emissaries of their country. Accordingly they should string along with local custom.

And if they can't stand a foreigner's food, they can at least practice his table manners. This shouldn't be too hard, at least in Europe. Instead of learning new manners, an American must simply know his native ones and mind them vigilantly. Is this asking too much? Perhaps' so. For according to Europeans and manners-conscious Americans' returning from abroad, our dinner-table goofs over there runJnto a figure even astronomers and Directors of the Budget would quail at.

With a cigarette in one hand and, a ketchup bottle in the other, this man may not be a Typical American but some Europeans think he is. Here, they say, are some of the more common ones: 1. OVERIMBIBING. This, to Europeans, is the most disturbing of American foibles, their tendency to begin a meal tipsy and end it smashed. The more charitable Europeans attribute it to the difference in drinking habits, on the two continents and to the Americans' braveiy in mixing their traditional before-dinner martinis with Europe's during -4inner wine.

The less charitable ones say it's a blasphemy toward the wine, which should be savored, not jugalugged, 2, SMOKING DURING THE MEAL. This, say the Europeans, shows a callousness for the cuisine matched only oy that arch insult to chefs slopping ketchup on their works of art. 3. GROUSING. In Spain, it's said, Amerltfans complain because dinner is not served until 10.

In Hamburg, because there are no hamburgers. Everywhere, because breakfasts are too small, lunches too big and dinners too long. 4. LANGUAGE BOOBOOS. Europeans are used to Americans knowing only one language and usually know enough English themselves to get by.

What they object to is the patronizing use of pidgin talk. Also, Americans trying their wings in a foreign language should learn the difference between formal and familiar pronoun and verb forms. It unnerves Frenchmen to have strangers address them as "tu" instead of "vous." Language hazards exist even in England, where an American asking for a napkin is liable to be given a A serviette is what he wants. 5. OVERCASUALNESS.

The chief difference between American and European table manners is that a European takes his seriously. Much of the time Europeans endure and even admire Americans for their famous inform mality. But not at the dinner table. 0 A ON P'S Q'S (Q) "Should ladies be seated at the right or the left of men at a formal dinner?" MRS. S.
