At this college in Long Island , m a junior) the latest fad is a "Pig Party." All the boys in the fraternity pitch in $1. The boy who shows up with the ugliest girl wins the money. It sound sort of mean but honestly, Ann, these parties are a million laughs. There are some unseen advantages which should not be overlooked. It gives the homely dames (who would otherwise never get a date) a chance to go out once in a while. Of course they never know why they are asked, so no harm is done. Don't you agree this is a howl? -- FRIED) SHOES " Dear Fried: It's the crum- miest stunt I ever heard of. Send me the name of the char- acter who dreamed up this one. I'd like to mail him a get-well) card, . Dear Ann Landers: My hus- band told me yesterday that I am an idiot. Why? Because I can't cook or bake anything un- less I have a cook book propped up in front of me. His mother never owned a cook book, She just kept tast- ing to see if it needed a little more of this or a little more of that. | The other evening I was fix- ing a rib roast. When my hus-} band came into the kitchen and saw. the meat thermometer stuck into the roast he almost meat thermometer before and insisted only a screwball would go for something like THAT. Please print my letter, Ann, and let my husband know that people who follow recipes and instructions are not idiots. It would help if you added a line saying you follow \recipes, too, Thanks.-- CANADIAN COOK Dear Cook: Sorry -- I'm in your mother-in-law's category and, I'm not bragging, but apologizing. I never feel more like a kitchen idiot than when I am happily ignoring instruc- tions, guessing and tasting -- then suddenly things don't seem quite right. So I have to rum- mage through the trash can to find the box and read the in- structions. Some excellent cooks do not follow recipes but the vast ma- jority of home-makers get bet- ter results when they do. Dear Ann Landers: I am sec- retary to an important execu- tive. These past two years I jhave met many attractive and interesting men but almost al- ways they are married. I de- cided lonr ago not to get mixed up with a married man. Two weeks ago a charming jand unmarried young man came in to see my boss. My boss was in conference so we had a nice 20-minute conversa- tion. He invited me to dinner that evening and we hit if off beautifully. The next day he took me to lunch I mentioned I was searching for a certain re- cord album. He said "If I find it what do I get?'* I replied, "A nice big kiss." . The album arrived yesterday. Mr. Perfect comes back to town next week.

Failing May Start Child Applying Himself To Study By GARRY C. MYERS, Ph.D. Some while ago I observed in this column that I receive many letters about children who have been lagging at school; also that I receive an occasional let- ter about the child who rather' abruptly drops in his school achievement. Then I said it would be a pleasure to me to read some letters about children having last year and has always brought home constant com- plaints from his teachers that he daydreamed too much and seemed generally disinterested in school, although he gave in- dications of being capable of good work. "If we pressed 'him hard enough he would make a small effort for a few weeks, then slack off to his usual day- dreaming. We tried to help him balloon will be returned to the school so students can check wind direction and distance travelled. with his lessons but he couldn't seem to retain even the sim- plest facts for more than a few minutes and though he could read very well he inserted his own words rather than to trou- ble himself with what was in the book, FOLLOWED ADVICE "I had a small success fol- lowing your advice and giving him certain unavoidable duties around home but I didn't have my heart in it even though I'm convinced that it's a valuable method of handling the day- dreamer, if he or she doesn't have a daydreaming mother. | "The real problem was with me and my fear of school. I was radiating with it. I had been a very good student in grade school and always liked school even though I was afraid, There had been talk of letting me skip the sixth grade altogether but after the 1.Q. tests were checked there was no more talk of that kind. "For reasons that are ob- vious to me now I went numb on that test. It might not have left any visible scars if the principal hadn't said, 'I always gent but according to these tests you're below normal.' I haven't figured out yet whether she was intentionally cruel or just. thoughtless but she never mentioned it again and I didn't dare. The thought never really formed but the feeling was there that for some reason I had the ability to act like an intelligent person but I really wasn't and I was always afraid someone else was going to point it out. "So it was impossible for me to put my son to the test until last October when his teacher sent'me a note saying that. he was too big a boy to fail the fourth grade twice. This is the same school where I had my little trauma and two shocks in the same place sort of neutral- ized my own personal problem. SECOND TRY "T enrolled in a night school credit course to finish high school and am an A student. As for our boy, we had to prac- tically threaten his life to get him awake but now he's as- tounding everyone. He's i so much more. The grades are excellent as though he's seeing the world for the first time. Perhaps we both are. "His teacher deserves a tre- mendous amount of praise for she has taken his new interest wonderful personality. But the most important thing to him, I believe is that we, his parents, finally have real faith in him." What an amazing achieve- ment!' I'd like to read more of such letters, wouldn't you? p> cl THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, November 13,1964 1] ey's thought you were very intelii-| * still friendly and cheerful but he's|® THURSDAY, FRIDAY, SATURDAY COMPARE PRICES GET THE BEST DEAL AT CHERNEY'S @ DECORATIVE POLE LAMP 3.88 Floor-to-ceiling light only $3.88 with the purchase of any living room suite priced from $148.00. 6,000 FT.
