ANN LANDERS Thoughtless Children Should Be Reminded Dear Ann Landers: .Our mother passed away in her late 30s and left dad with five chil- dren. He gave us love and af- fection and not once did 1 hear him complain. Now all five of us are married and have families of our own. Three of us live in town. Two years ago dad was bed- ridden. We got together and de- cided to put dad in a rest horae where he could get medical care. We are all in moderate circumstances and agreed to share the expenses. The brother and sister who live out of town have not sent their cheques for over a year-- nor have they gone to see dad in all that time. They send post- cards from their trips but they never write a letter or call dad although they know he has a phone by his bed. How should I feel about the two deadbeats Should [ call them and remind them that they have a dad here Or should 1| write them off as selfish, worth- less people and give them the cold shoulder when they do show up--probably for dad's funeral.--Smoldering Dear Smoldering: There's usually one in every family. Your family has two. By all means call the miserable in- grates and write to them, too. Children who forget that they re- have parents should be minded. As for how you should behave when you see them, be civilized but don't fall on their necks and pretend affection you don't feel. Dear Ann Landers: That "lovely lady'"' who was mad be- cause her two sons were in the army while the ex-cons were not accepted should get her facts straight before she opens her big mouth. I'm an ex-con and I served in the Second World War along with thousands of other ex-cons. Many were decorated for bravery. We had to volunteer. | We were not drafted. And each case was revieweu, x ~ cons with records of murder, rape or treason were nou accepted, My commanding officer told me the ex-cons under him were better soldiers than the average GI's because they were used to) regimentation and discipline and | 16 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, Merch 2, 1966 Wemen Tea Held In Hosnital Lounge Marks Golden Anniversary Honorable John P.
