until recently had strong opin ions about funerals afterlife flowers sympathy cards phone calls etc believed sick calls were an intrusion on ones privacy cards superfluous and visits to the funeral parlor an imposition unless one was close relative was also tonguetied didnt know what to say to people who had suffered loss soI never said anything changed my mind when my Dad died just before Christ mas Then Mom died at Easter and my husband suffered fatal heart attack in May My friends gave me the strength to carry on It didnt matter what they said was grateful for every person who said anything received letters and cards from folks hadnt seen in years They all conveyed some mes sage of concern That was important want to tell the whole world what have learned Perhaps will encourage others to extend hand make call stop in or send card Its evidence that someone cares and this can be very lovely thing EC Of Chicago Dear Youve done lot of good today perhaps even changed some minds abouh few things Thank you very much Dear Ann Landcrs Walter Cronkite the most trusted man in America said in speech few weeks ago that newspaper readership is lowest among people in the 1830 group He also said people in that age group watch the least Can this be am asking you because as newspaper columnist who gets mail from every segment of society you ought to know How does Mr Cronkites statement stack up according to the mail you receive Doubling Thomas In White Plains Dear Tom According to my mail Mr Cronkite is right on Approximately 25 per cent of the people who write to me are under 18 and 60 per cent are over 30 years of age This means about 15 per cent are between 18 and 30 Of course not every person who writes tells me his or her age but the majority do and almost always its in the first sentence or the second Dear Ann Landcrs dont know where you get your infor mation but this is for Concerned Children Alcoholics Anonymous WILL go see people In chapter five of the AA book How It works part of the Twelve Steps states As result of these steps we try to carry this message to alco holics Its called The Twelve Step Call Im sure if these children got in touch with group close to their home someone would be more than happy to come out and talk with their alcoholic mother Member Dear Member Sorry you are wrong Alcoholics Anonymous will send someone out to speak to the alcoholic only if he or she requests it When family members or friends or neighbors telephone they are advised to contact AlAnon Children of alcoholics are told to contact Alateen Dear Ann Landers have heard the expression fool and his money are soon parted and often wondered how this adage got started see so many tools who are loaded Care to comment Wondering In Kansas Dear Wondering That saying always raised another kind of question in MY mind How did they get together in the first place Erma Bombeck Advice for Chinese 31 It isnt often have chance to do something for my country But China needs me It seems Peking is suffering roni an invasion of Western styles and trends which our children introduced in the 60s as the Chinese press put it long hair bellbottom trousem and other outlandish fashions that are decadent and quue bourgeois arioons in Communist newspapers are already showing the effects of what happens to nice boy in crew cut Mao jacket and baggy trousers who turns intoa longhaired freak and gets drunk on heady spirits and eventually engages in billing and cooing Believe me when say American parents have empathy and expertise on how to handle these problems In the in terest of friendly relations we are willing to share with Chinese parents the stages and their progression so that you may know what to expect and how to handle the problem First the llilllrIIlIhl eyes phase Your child will develop an affliction in which he Will snap his head to one side and for tew sc nds you will actually see his eyes They will be hostile and youll be glad when the hair falls back over them The second stage develops when you suggest he gets haircut and he combs it over to one side and secretly uses your hairspray to make it stay He has begun to do other things like not wear socks with his tennis shoes and uses words like thin laing ttougho and Ho Mcingh No way The third stage is when he appears for school one day wearing pants he has worn for the last five days Ile now ns his own hair dryer In the fourth stage his hair is down to his shoulders and he is sprouting hair all over his face With pure belligerence he tell you Confucius had mustache this long and no one complained The fifth stage you have lost control Trousers arc frayed holes are secured with pins your newspapers have no rub her hands on them since they are wrapped around his pony tail and you arrange for financing for shampoo You pray he is oiin billing and cooing The solution is an old American proverb Parents who adapt style of young people and begin to look like them will soon have young people clamoring for crew cuts and leisure sluts Pollys Pointers Vinegar water lift crease DEAR POLLY have 3yearold dress that have lengthened at the hemline do not know how to get rid of the line where it was before DARLENE DEAR DARLENE erng your pressing cloth out of strong white vinegar and water solution and then press Should the line remaln use whlte vinegar alone Be sure it is white vinegar and test for effect on your fabric apologize to many other readers who may be tired of seeing thls repeated but the requests continue to come for the answer to this problem POLLY DEAR POLLY save all my little scraps of yarn throughout the year When spring comes can put them in the bushes for the birds to find to use in building their nests LINDA DEAR POLLY am answering Ruth who has the old railroad spikes she wants to use An exrailroad man told me that he had three such spikes welded together to make tripod that can be used as door stop paper weight or just as an ornament NELLIE DEAR POLLY suggest that Ruth take her old railroad spikes to blacksmith let him lay them in his forge and bring to red heat After they cool the rust can be easxly removed with file or stiff wire brush Then they could be given coat or two of flat black paint If she does not know where to find blacksmith she might lay the spikes on top of the coals in coal furnace or even in the fireplace among the coals This will take longer but it will work Be sure to use tongs when removing them from the fire Also it may interest some to know that if tap is rusted tightly to bolt or rod it can be placed in the fire until red 210an after cooling the tap will unscrew easily REV at
