I'm sure it would help a lot of people with very young children and large families who are always saying: a picture of the Baby: Got your 20lh letter today. Ending line went this way: "Whenever you get a chance one day. Send a picture of the baby." Today we got your 14th call Everyone is fine and all. "We know we'll see the kids next fall.

But send a picture of the baby." Friends and family we love you a lot. That picture 1s 20 bucks a shot. money we just haven't got. So send a quarter for the baby. We think it's just a great idea.

So send a quarter here and there. And maybe by this time next year. You'll get a picture of the tjaby. From Mother Of the Baby Dear Mother: When people ask for a picture of the baby, they don't mean send a $20 portrait. A snapshot will do.

So loosen up, put one in the mail and forget the poetry, Mrs. Browning. Dear Ann Landers: I've just read your reprint of your message to "Meant Well" and I-agree that guilt after 4 Dr. Joyce Brothers Quiz on love In the spring, fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, the subject of today's qui: 1.

Passionate love doesn't decline in a relationship if all the other kinds of love remain constant. True False 5. Most people tend to fall in love with oppo-sites. True False 6. A happy love relationship is good for your health.

1. FALSE. Women are much more apt to expect their mates to be unfaithful. Men are much more trusting and are frequently shocked and surprised by a woman's Infidelity. 2.

FALSE. If you play hard to get, what you're apt to catch is a person who's more interested in playing games and making conquests than in living. Once he or she mother children have been raised does no good. Kindergarten and first grade teachers like me see many little people whose lives are made unnecessarily difficult by well-meaning parents. We are able to compare their children with others the same age in an objective manner.

Some youngsters are not permitted to exercise their own judgement and are kept much too dependent. Others, given too much freedom, become tyrants. They run their parents' lives and try to run everyone else's. We don't claim to be 100 per cent right all of the time, but if parents would cooperate with us, their children would benefit handsomely. Please print this message especially for moms and dads who think we are mean because we ask that Mary or John to repeat a year.

First Grade Teacher Dear Teacher: I hear you loud and clear and what you say makes a lot of sense. Too bad so many parents resent any criticism about their youngsters. Please, Mom and Dad, listen to what the teacher is saying. She wants to help. CONFIDENTIAL to Should We OK 72 and They are old enough to make this decision without your OK.

FALSE. It generally docs decline. This doesn't mean, however, that the relationship declines or that people don't continue to be interested in and to engage in sex with their partner throughout life. It's just a fact that the honeymoon period of any relationship doesn't last forever. 5.

FALSE. While love between can be exciting and Successful, it seems to be the exception rather than the rule. Love is more likely to be based on a couple's similarity in character, physical attractiveness, mental or physical health, intelligence, and even income. 6. TRUE.

It's so good that life insurance companies show that those who maintain a happy love relationship tend to live longer and to be healthier throughout their lives.

The Quebec City Municipal Congress Centre is, in fact, probably the best single playing facility in Eastern Canada. A good sprinkling of Ottawa players attended, and were well-rewarded by good food, pleasant opponents, some minor bridge successes, and a couple of major ones. What appears to be Ottawa's strongest team of four put together an impressive string of successes of late the Grand Nationals T4, the By-town IMP League trophy, and now the Quebec City Regional Swiss T4.

However, Jacques Cartier was there in 1535 and saw the view from the top of Mount Royak Champlain was there in 1611 and established a trading post on May 26 of that year. He also named St. Helen's Island, site of Expo '67, for his 13-year-old wife whom he had married In Paris the year before. She did not come to Canada until 1620 and stayed only four years.

Champlain used St. Helen's Island as a base and left there (also on May 26) In 1613 on a trip that he believed would take him to the Pacific Ocean. A young man called Vignau told him that he had gone far up the Ottawa River until he came to an ocean, and there was an English ship wrecked on the shore. It might be the "western sea" for which all the explorers had been searching. Greatly excited, Champlain began paddling up the Ottawa with Vignau, two French helpers and an Indian guide.

Although the distances involved in Great Britain are rather small, the TV hookup meant the players did not have to spend even those few hours traveling by train or boat to one spot for a face-to-face encounter. Chess games are regularly played over the telephone. In the United States, the National Chess League is comprised of 12 teams of six players each. But the telephone has three drawbacks: First, there is no contact with the opponent.

The moves may as well be made by a computer; second, because the move made at one end must first be coded, brought to the telephone, spoken, received and decoded at Paaa Paaa 1 Paaa 1 What do you bid now?

But television overcomes most of those problems, and with a simple device attached 1 could insure that time controls are properly observed at each end. Here in Canada, where distances have been a hindrance to competition at the highest level for over a hundred years, chess by television is an idea-definitely worth investigation.

Western Sea SOUght present-day Renfrew, Ontario, he made a trip through the woods to Muskrat Lake where he knew an Algonquin chief.

It was a hard walk and Champlain was carrying a gun, paddles, and an astrolabe, an early type of sextant. On the way through the woods, bothered by mosquitoes, Champlain dropped the astrolabe and could not find It. then the Indian chief laughed at Viganu's story and made him admit it was a lie. Champlain was greatly disappointed and could not risk traveling any farther without the astrolabe. So he was forced to return to St.

Helen's Island. The astrolabe was found In 1867 by a farmer who was ploughing land near It Is In a remarkable state of preservation and its date of manufacture, 1613, can clearly be seen.

Can you tell me when the Loew's Theatre was built in Ottawa? I think I am the only surviving member of that theatre's orchestra but I have no recollections about when the theatre was built. All of Ottawa's theatres were eclipsed by the opening of Loew's Theatre on Nov. 8, 1920, unrivalled in its seating capacity, lavish decor, chan-dellered domes and its vistas of sweeping balcony, mezzanine and marble staircase, according to newspaper reports of that day. Plenty of advance publicity was given to its opening, and its designer Thomas Lamb, who came to Ottawa for the event, told Ottawa residents in a full-page newspaper advertisement that the building had afforded him greater pleasure than working on any other because of the tremendous scope for designing and engineering'ability. The opening of the one-million dollar theatre was attended by Marcus Loew who came by train with "a galaxy of movie stars." The evening newspapers reported the stars rode in state to City Hall and were met by a crush of spectators which "exceeded anything since the reception of the Prince of Wales." At the House of Commons the procession was received by Acting Prime Minister Sir James Loughced, owner of Calgary's Grand Theatre.

The event stirred much controversy which continued for weeks after the official opening of the theatre. Is it possible to find statistics concerning long distance running and the long-range effect of it on people who started to run while they were children and continued doing so through mid-life? Such figures may not be available in Canada but they may be elsewhere. Can you give me any help on this? A spokesman for Fitness Canada indicates there may be more figures available on the effects of long distance running than on almost any other sports activity. You have not indicated if you are interested in the positive or negative aspects of long-distance running and resulting stress. Various aspects of stress, including the psychological effect of marathon running, are dealt with in the magazine Kunners World which should be found on your Public Library's shelves.

Such research data will also be available from the Sports Medicine clinic at Carleton University and from the library at the University of Ottawa's Physical Education department. Several marathon runners are on staff at Fitness Canada in The Journal Building. You may wish to discuss this question with one of the runners calling 99b'-4510. Are hair dressing salons required to have charges posted in their window or where, customers can see them? Hair dressing salons are no longer required to be licensed by the City of Ottawa. City officials decided that because the salons are required to meet provincial labour and health standards, it was not necessary to bring them under municipal regulations.

However, in the interest of good customer relations it would seem wise for such establishments to make these charges visible to would-be patrons.
