The three pictures shown here by Pat Swartos display the versatility of her painting. Pat started this interesting hobby two years ago. Sketching Led To Interest In Painting • Although she has sketched as far back as she ran remember, Pat Swartos had never tritt painting until two years ago. In college, art was her minor, but the subjects did not include either oil or water painting. Shortly after Pat and her hus- band, Jerry, moved to Shelton a little over two years ago she decided to sign up for painting lessons. Extremely satisfied with her first attempt, Pat also start- ed taking portrait lessons. When she first began painting she used much detail but recent- ly Pat has linen doing the tyI)e of picture that is not detailed. She has become acquainted with the palelte knife and especially enjoys that technique. Vivid colors are typical of most of her pictures. She is particu- larly fond of shades of orange, hut has painted some striking pictures us!ng other colors l)VC- dora ins tely. A portrait of her son, Terry, now four years old, is easily :i:: : : identifiable and she is planning to do another of him. Pal has shown her pictures at the Catholic Art Show and had the window at Mann Realty during January. She has sold several of her paintings. Her artistic talent was recent- ly put to use by the Jaycees. They made toy chests for the Robers School and Pat decora- ted them with pictures of animals and toys. Her collection of pic- tures also includes some paint- ings she has done for children's rooms. Since she moved to Shelton Pat has been active in the Shelton Jayettes. She recently joined the Adult Art Group and Epsilon Omicron Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi. She also bowls and sells Avon. In addition to painting, Pat lists gardening, sewing and cook- ing, along with music and sports as her main interests.

J., Princelon, N. J. Dear R. J.: Instead of arguing wifll your husband, try re-educating him. He ¢,n't Xl)C¢'rI a vital, energetic woman It:) sit at home doing nolhitlg when her wllole outlook on life can benefit from being a l)roductiv(, member of society. A noted clergyman recently said it beautifully: "Of course (wo- man) belongs in the home, but so does he.,usband, and neither of them belt)nhere exclusive- ly." "% Dear Margaret : I brought ut) four chihh'en and I think I did a pretty good job. My house was neat arid clean, meals were servcd on lime. and everyone seemed happy. I c,'m'i understand my daughter. She on- ly has two little ones and yet her home is chaotic every time I visit. I offer to help, but she always says no. My husband passed away last year and I have plenty of time to give. Why won't she accept my offer? Time on my Hands, D)uisville Dear Time on my llands: Your feelings are completely understandable, hut perhaps if you think back to your own days as a young housewife it will help you accet)t your (laughter's at- titude toward your offers of help. Remember when you wanted to bc ltfl ah)nc to run your home your own way? Your daughter n]igtlt tilipr,ciale an offer from you it) take the children on an occasion;d excursion. Bul if she says 'no,' don't feel too badly. In time, she muy change he/" mind. Meanwhile, since you do luve lime oil your hands, antl you evidently have a Iot of en- ergy, why not lok for some other ways Io be of service? There are lots of organizations that would welcome homemaking and ,thlld-raising skills. Or, if volunteer work doesn't appeal to you. perhaps you would be inter- cstcd in a paying job. Some wo- men in your cireumstanee. have found their answers in continu- ing the'r education or training for other kinds of work. At this stage of your life yo'J ilave to explore the various choices and decide in which direction you want your life to proceed. Dear Miss Brookfleld: I am 42 ycars old and con- sidered quite attractive. I have a well-paying, responsible Job that I've always enjoyed. In the past I've had many dates and been very popular, and even though I haven't met a man I would like to marry, I have had some close relationships with men. But recently I've been hav- ing the feeling that, frankly, I'm over the hill. Men who used to give me the once-owr are begin- ning (o ignore me. I know that I don't really need to have men looking lt me, but it worries me when I think about the future. If my lot)ks and attractiveness to men fade, what chance will I have to get married? -Despondent, St. Paul Dear Despondent: While statistics show that younger women do have the greatest chances for marriage, reaching the age of 42 does not me:m you are doomed. Today women your age are mothers, teachers, business executives anti movie stars. There is no real reason why you should lose your attractiveness if you take care of yourself. With modern ad- vances in medical science there is no need for the woman enter- ing her second 40 years to feel that her life is over. Today's knowledge of medicine, diet, nu- trition and hormone replacement therapy has helped keep women more attractive, vital, slimmer and better stacked than 42-year- olds were In your mother's day. Along with that, you've also got more help from the cosmetic industry than women ever had before. It may be flattering to Tet that once-over as you walk down the street, but much more importcnt is the way a man looks at you when you're with him. Have you a problem as a ma- ture woman, or with one? For answers In the column wirte to Perfect symbol of tov(.

My teenage daughter con- aiders everyday grooming bor- ing. Can you suggest a fast, efficient beauty routine for her to follow? A. A quick shower in the morning, followed by the ap- plication of a deodorant, should be enough to keep your teenager clean and fresh throughout the day. If she tends to get facial blemishes, it would be advis- able for her to ae a correc- tive lotion or gel under her makeup. Young faces seldom need more in the way of makeup tha a little pressed powder and ltp- atick. An eyebrow brush will help to keep too-bushy eye. brows in line, An evening routine should include vigorous htlr brtm- ingto keep hair altiny and healthy-looking. practicing.
