AGE STATE JOURNAL POCATELLO, IDAHO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER is, iws DEAR ABBY: My daughter Prissy had been going steady with Jonathan, a charming young man she met at college. I expected her to come home with a diamond any time. A young lady suddenly reappeared in Jonathan's life--his high school sweetheart who had married someone else. Her marriage was being dissolved, and she needed someone to "talk to" and help straighten out her life. She contacted Jonathan.and he started seeing her.

Prissy became resentful, and Jonathan asked her to please be more understanding. Prissy said, "I'm sorry, but that girl should be talking to a marriage counselor or a clergyman. It's not your place to straighten out her life." Jonathan resented Prissy's attitude, and they had words. It's been three months since Prissy has heard from him, and she is heartbroken. Now she wonders if perhaps she should have been more understanding.

What are your views? PRISSY'S MOM DEAR MOM: Even if Prissy had been more understanding, I think the high school sweetheart would have won out. If Jonathan truly cared for Prissy, when his old flame returned, he would have tuld her that he was seriously involved with someone else. Instead, he played the moth. Prissy could be the lucky one. DEAR ABBY: I have a relative who is quite old but by no means senile.

She has mentioned several times that she has me in her will for a sizable amount of money. Frankly, I doubt that she is worth that much. Is there some place I can write to find out exactly how much money she is really worth? I want my inquiry to be absolutely confidential. Please don't use my name, initials or location. Thank you.

ANONYMOUS DEAR ANONYMOUS: You won't (and shouldn't! know until the will is probated. Meanwhile, I Suggest you respect your relative's right to privacy. DEAR ABBY: What do you think of "awards" for first and second graders when only four or five students from the class receive them? The other students feel so bad. Some even cry. The students who receive the awards may invite their parents to attend.

The other students may not! This upsets me so that it takes me weeks to get over it. I feel so sorry for the youngsters who get nothing and feel ashamed. FIRST GRADE TEACHER DEAR TEACHER: I am all for rewards for outstanding achievements, but they should be given in a way that wiU not humiliate those who receive none. Instead of complaining to me, why don't you complain to the authorities and try to get them to change the system? er ACROSS 1 Seed coat 5 The privet 9 Like (slang) 12 Cartoonist Goldberg :13 Bulwer Lytton heroine 14 DDE's war area :15 To carry on Fixed charge :18 French city 19 Rows '21 Army rank :24 Sibelius, for one Dog in heraldry 26 Certain missiles French friend 31 Loretta or Robert 32 Sharp tool 33 Saltworks 35 Interlock 36 Evil influence (poet.) 37 West Indian island: St. 38 Savage 40 Used to make tallow 42 Salutation 43 Functioning 48 U.S.

JOURNAL CLASSIFIEDS i BRING RESULTS Dear Dr. Thosteson: My doctor says I have an extremely underactive thyroid gland and has me on thyroid medication. I also have a friend going to the same doctor and he prescribes the same pills for her, but she has an overactive thyroid. Can you explain the same medication being used for underactive and overactive thyroid? Also, she had surgery on her thyroid.

--Mrs. S.A.D. I'm glad you mentioned the fact, in passing, that your friend had thyroid surgery. Without that bit of information, I would have been as puzzled as you are. Your thyroid medication is a supplement to provide the necessary hormones your thyroid is not producing.

Without it you would probably be sluggish, tend toward- obesity. The thyroid gland governs other glandular activity and generally regulates body metabolism. In your friend's case, the opposite was true. Her thyroid was overactive. A surgeon removed a part of it, in that way reducing the amount of hormones secreted.

After such surgery an underproduction of thyroid hormone can occur. For her, thyroid supplement helps stabilize matters. Dear Dr. Thosteson: A long time ago, I read in your column something regarding craving for ice cubes being related to anemia. I was craving ice cubes and, in fact, did have anemia.

My doctor had not heard of this, and I don't think he believes me. Did I read You did. The craving for ice or for any unusual items- starch, soui, called "pica," and it is often associated with an anemia or a deficiency in the diet. The deficiency is often of a mineral type- Treatment of the anemia and correction of the faulty dietary practices usually takes care of the problem. Dear Dr.

Thosteson: Can you tell me what effect beer would have on divei Liquid is i a in diverticulosis. An occasional beer should have no ill effect. i i i patients should avoid laxatives when possible. If you are one in whom beer produces flatulence and loose bowel movements, than it should be avoided. Forgive me if I seem overly suspicious, but I rather suspect that your doctor has ruled out beer for you, and for just such reasons as mention.

So don't take my comments as any free pass to beer drinking. contracts, partnership proposals. It's possible somtone wants you to do more, much more, than your share. Be aware of this and let it be known that you are not naive. Individual in position of authority is willing to listen.

State your CANCER (June 21-July 22): Finish what you start and avoid premature actions. Aries, Libra figure prominently. Accent on change of long-range plans. Friend who had been quick to criticize may now be wearing "sheepish grin." Co-worker, one who shares your interests, has case of "nerves." LEO (July 23-Aug. 2 2 Highlight independence of thought, action.

Originality is great asset--take a chance on your own concepts, abilities. Accent is on digging deep, beneath surface indications. Truth is available if you search. Action is being taken to fulfill your desires. AAember of opposite sex is involved.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you are doubtful, do nothing. Review is required, especially where contract, agreement or partnerhsip commitment is concerned. Aquarius, Leo persons are in picture.

Property value could be subject of controversy. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 2 2 Forces are scattered. Leave fine points, details for another time.

Gemini is involved. Study Virgo message. Remember diet, health resolutions. Mate, partner takes short trip and results are surprising. You'll get call which proves a point.
