3371333 Can't divide into black and white May I make one more comment regard- ing Dean Blakeiy's Oct. 29 letter. World politics cannot be divided into black and white issues with communism being all evil and ourselves good. To boycott every country that has an unjust government would leave us without any trading partners. Hardly a step towards world peace. And as to my assumptions about US. - Soviet parallels, fighting communism is no justification for terrorism, and the contras do use terrorist tactics. Colin Read Waterloo, Ont. Be honest with yourself. You are one of thousands of women who hate to exercise and no matter how hard someone like myself tries to motivate you, you can offer a million reasons why you feel this way. Perhaps "excuses" is a better word. I won't linger on the psychology behind this stance, but I will let you know that a relatively new exercising concept has arrived in this area of the exercising world. You can now stuff your reasons for not. exercising and lie on a soft, comfortable machine and let it do all the work for you. Being skeptical of something which gives you something for nothing. I took advantage of a free half-hour toning session offered by Sylvia's Feminine Reducing Salon in Kitchener. Remeber the exercise machine with a belt that could go around enormous hips and vibrated, jiggling the fat to kingdom come? Well, these toning machines work on the same basis. They get the circulation going in particular body parts, trying to shake loose the pockets of fat known more commonly as cellu- Cellulite is a dirty word. At least to a woman. Most women might as well say forget it when it comes to shaping their upper things. And many do. They give up on exercising, claiming it doesn't work, and resort to dreaming of having beautiful bathing suit legs. If, however, the proper form of pleasing exercise was done regularly and with vigor, cellulite can be dissolved into the body and replaced with more muscle tone giving the leg a smoother look.

To a basically lazy person, this sounds GOOD! "In order for the machines to work", said Kerlovich "you have to be consistent and faithful just as in any- thing else." involves work, and going back to the beginning of this column, many people shun work. So .. let's enter the world of a toning salon. Tr Toning machines are engineered to do much of the exercise for you by vibrating and moving specific parts of your body for a period of 10 minutes per machine, repeating the action over a thousand times. (When 1 say much of the exercise, I should clarify that to get the maximum benefit from these machines you must squeeze or tighten your muscles in harmony with the move- ments of the machines.) I was put on machines which vibrated my rear end, moved my legs up and behind, circled my legs, vibrated my upper back and arms, and loosened my whole body. I felt a tingling sensation which I was told was an increase in my circulation. Whether or not this type of movement is good for you I don't even want to get into. For me personally, the machines would not be an added benefit. I prefer to work hard to reap the benefits. Even Kerlovich states that the machines are not for everybody, and that she herself is not physically fit from using the machines but toned. Angry over Lee instead of Dee I am writing in response to an article I read in the Wednesday, Nov. 5 edition of your paper. The article was entitled, "Star Status Reached by Honeymoon In your article you made a gross error. Continually you addressed Mr. Johnie Dee by "Mr. Lee." I feel that if your reporters had made half an effort they would have been able to correctly spell Mr. Dee's three-letter name. Also, not once in the article was Mr. Dee credited with being the lead vocal singer of the band. I hope that you will correct these errors. __ -- "I don't think It would be that much of an inconvenience, though they will have to do something about a crosswdk " Erh and Caroline."

Jean Locked The Arthritis Society, K-W I ran across a way to find out what it is you really want to do with your life and where your real interest lies. I bring this up because of the number of people who say they don't know what they want. For them, the answer may be found in their dreams, both the night and, day variety. While most of our sleeping dreams make no sense and are not remembered, they act as our mental and emotional garbage disposal, essential to our well-being. Some of our day-dream- ing is also used as an escape-hr tch to help us get away from some unpleasant reality. Even though we know they are not true, they act as safety-valves to let off mental and emotional steam and may keep us from an explosive break- down. Both serve a purpose and are not constructive. The dreams to pay attention to are the recurring ones, particularly the day- dreams - which the experts on such things say are just as important and revealing as our sleeping dreams - as they often give us valuable clues, not Just to problems of an emotional nature, but real insight into new directions we might be wise to give our serious con- sideration. The very fact that they keep repeating is a sign that they are trying to tell us something. In our sleeping dreams, things seem to be happening in the present; whereas, in daydreaming we project ourselves into the future, but either way, they give us indications of Try to pin down a recurring dream and analyze why you keep thinking about it and you will probably get the tipoff as to your true vocation.

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 19. 1966 - PAGE , Cathy Stub Waterloo (hsttth'tsy Fellows some time come true. Most of the world's greatest ac- complishments have been achieved by people who have first dreamed of them and then followed through; and you might be surprised at the number of successful people who are daily engaged in turning their daydreams into reality. There was the man whose plans to become an architect were thwarted by family problems and lack of money. For years, climbing up in the business world he daydreamed of being an architect and doodled plans of fine homes at every opportunity. Today, his business and hobby is re-modelling homes at a very nice profit. He's still not an architect, but he's doing the work he loves and using his talent to best advantage. Then there was the woman who dreamed of writing children's stories. After her children started in college, that's what she did and is now busily and successfully engaged in the work that was once her daydream. Circumstances may frustrate the re- alization of your dream. People's lives can flatten out, become dull and routine, so if you're not getting as big a jolt from life as you'd like - look to your dreams. Your dreams of tomorrow can make today's problems seem unimportant. The crumbs on the floor, the worn out tire, the corn on the toe, complaints and dreary tumdowns will fail from your thoughts like leaves from a tree, if you hold fast to your dreams.
