Youve got ten lashes coming for not seeing beyond your nose when that fellow wrote in and complained about fat slobs and able bodied people parking in spaces reserved for the han dicapped Im overweight sol would probably be classified by you as fat slob but also have severe asthmatic condition and cannot walk more than few steps without being winded If the weather is cold dare not go out at all My mother who has heart trouble is the picture of health You would never know to look at her that she has any physical problem whatever She must be driven to the nearest entrances at all times These spaces reserved for the handicapped are godsend to both of us So please Ann next time folks write and complain about healthy fat slobs taking up spaces reserved for the handi capped say word in otir behalf Just because we arent in wheelchairs or on crutches doesnt mean we are not severely disabled lire If Many Ilear ne My humble apologies to you and all others who wrote to give me welldeserved clobbering There are too many folks who are physically fit and hog the parking spaces and it is to them that address my plea Appreciate how lucky you are that you dont NEED to use these parking places and leave them for those who do Dear Ami ur 16yearold son left home in January be cause he got fed up with being told what to do He lived with friends from coast to coast humming all the way getting kicked out by their parents regularly Now he has come home stone broke hair down to his shoulders smellinglike six weekold piece of horsemeal My husband and decided he could live here so long as be cleaned himself up and stopped running around nights He has heett out until 300 am nearly every morning with bunch of creepy kids who look and smell like he does He has informml us that he has no intention of meeting any of our ioridit ions and that we cannot throw him out because the law in this state says we are responsible for him until he has reachwl his majority The whole family is in constant uproar because of this kid lie does whatever he pleases and has no regard for anyone What can we do Distraught Parents Dear Parents First please know that your son is just as sick of himself as you are He is angry insecure rud derless arid iiriserahle hostile kid is troubled kid Since there is tio coriirriinrication between you and him suggest an intermediary sorrreotre the boy can talk to physician clergyman coach or counsellor The boy needs therapy but it cannot be forced on him he must accept it willingly Then you and your husband should go for counselling This problem is larnily matter The boy is right when he says you cannot throw hint out because he is minor You can however place him in detention home II he becomes unmanageable dont fttiiillllltllll it Most detention homes are factories that produce hardened criminals Your sons hostility did not tleyclop overnight so dont expect miracles Be patient and lllllllllltll that the child who is least lovable

nothing added on my shortnapped nylon ca et and wonder if there is anything that will remove resulting stain DEAR Sponge the stain with lukewarm water and then with halfpint of lukewarm water that has teaspoon of synthetic detergent added Rinse out with plain water Next use one teaspoon white vinegar in three teaspoons lukewarm water and leave this on for about 15 minutes Sponge out with lukewarm water Blot up as much of the moisture as possible and then put several thicknesses of paper towels over damp spot and weigh towels down with heavy book until dry III DEAR FULLY Oil the ends on your window shade rollers and find they work like new MRS AWD DEAR POLLY Did you know that the white of an egg will remove chewing gum from anything including hair know because just did it To keep pictures front slipping and hanging unevenly first hang them facing the wall Turn over and this will cross the wire and they will not slip learned these tricks when took over the household chores while my mother was in the hospital ALLYSON DEAR lllY My Pointer is for mothers who have toddlers who are learning to feed themselves When giving baby soup only dilirte it with onefourth can of water or none at all Stir while heating so all lumps are dissolved This thicker texture allows baby to keep more on the con and therefore get more into himself If the rest the faintly is also having soup dish up babys portion first and then dilute it for the others These extra few minutes gin babys soup chance to cool bit and think it works very well JM lolly will send you one of her signed thankyou newspaper
