Dear Abby Does Anyone Know? Abigail Van Buren DEAR ABBY: I am elderly now, but when I was a child all the clocks were stopped in the house when a person died. No one thought Jt peculiar. Why was this done? Do you, or perhaps any of your readers, recall anything like this? Or was it a local superstition? This has bothered me for years. OBERLIN DEAR OBERLIN: I recall the same "superstition" but I have no idea where it originated, or why. Now, too, am curious.

Does anyone know? DEAR ABBY: My mother is a seamstress and she sews for the public. She is making a dress for a woman who is very hard to please because she can't make up her mind about what she wants. The dress is for a wedding (her son is getting married) and it ss all taffeta and lace and very fancy. This woman has changed her mind eight times and my mother has spent days on that one dress and she's not finished yet. My mother is a wonderful seamstress, if I have to say so myself, and every one of her other customers is very satisfied with her work.

I am wondering just what my mother should charge a person like that? DAUGHTER DEAR DAUGHTER: Your mother should keep track of the hours she spends on that dress, and chargffe accordingly. A good seamstress will hardly pick up a needle for less than $2.00 an hour these days. X. DEAR ABBY: what do you think of a man who is so disappointed because his first child was a girl that he won't lift a finger to help? He is also mad because the bo by doesn't look like him. And 1 might as well tell you that he acts more single now than he did when he was single.

DISGUSTED WIFE DEAR DISGUSTED: You have a bahy girl AND a baby boy (your husband). Raising a husband takes patience, understanding and humility. I hope you are equal to (he task. DEAR ABBY: Today would be my ninth wedding anniversary if my husband were alive. I lost him ten months ago at the age of 30.

I have read your column for years and am amazed at the petty things married people fight about. Our marriage wasn't perfect either, but since I lost my husband I have become a wiser person. My advice to married couples is to live each day as though it were going to be the last. Because sometimes it is. M.

KORNS Phila Man Retires Following 33 Years With Ohio Power Spending as much time as possible with his 9 children, 24 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren, all of whom live in the New Philadelphia area, will be the chief retirement activity of William L. Korns, night troubleman for Ohio Power Co. in the New Philadelphia- Dennison district. Korns, who retired today after more than 33 years with the company, all in New Philadelphia, also plans some motor trips as time permits. His most immediate objective is a trip to Florida this Winter.

"My wife and I have done a lot of fishing in Canada and will give Florida waters a try this Winter," the retiring employe said. "A couple of years ago in Canada, we caught a couple of dandy muskies, one 53 Inches long and the other 54." The Kornses have been to several places in Canada, the last time going as far north as it is possible to go by car. Korns has given some thought to locating permanently in Canada, or possibly in Florida. He wants to be near water so he can fish whenever he wants to. "But those ideas probably will fall through," he said.

"I'll probably stay right here in New Philadelphia where I have lived almost all my life." He and his wife, Irene, live at 415 Kaserman Ave. NE. Born in Bright wood on Oct. 2, 1895, Korns started to work at the age of 15 as a "mule skinner" in coal mines near Roswell. He drove mules in the mines for 6 years, then left to enter the Army.

After years in the infantry at Camp Gordon, Korns went to work! for the American Sweeper Co. in New Philadelphia. He joined the Ohio Cities Telephone Co. 3 yaars later and did line work there and for the Pennsylvania Railroad in the Dennison area until joining Ohio Power on June 25, 1927. He worked in various line capacities until July 1, 1947, when he was named night troubleman.

He has reported for work at 4 p.m. when most of the other Ohio Power workers are heading for home. "I usually 'come in a little early so I can talk to some of the other fellows a few minutes," he said. "My work for the oast 13 years has been a little lonesome, so it helps a lot to see the boys, if only for a short time." He is a member of the Central Division Chapter of the Ohio Power Veteran Employees' Assn. Gnadenhutten Tops Stone Creek 74-2 For 4th Triumph The Gnadenhutten Indisns high school baseball team wrapped up its forth win in 5 starts Thursday to retain the Fall League leadership, trouncing Stone'Creek 14-2.

The second place Caraway Pirates will host the Indians Monday in an important encounter at Community Park Gin-away has a 3-2 record. Dave Struchen posted the win although receiving aid from freshman Don Garretl in the final 2 frames. The pair fanned 9 and walked only 3 and allowed 3 hits. Larry Stephen the loser on 11 hits as Stone Creek dropped its fifth straight decision. Leading the winning barrage were Dick Shuil with a double and triple, Carl Dichler with a double, John Rauzi with a triple and Struchen with a double.

John Weaver, sidelined with a bad ankle since before the season opened, finally got into the lineup and collected 3 hits in 3 trips. California is the only state which produces the artichoke commercially The Winter vegetable was introduced in the state prior to 1900 by Italian immigrants.

(AP) Arabia today proposed a summit meeting between the United States and the Soviet Union with neutralist leaders sitting in. Ahmad Shukairy, head of the Saudi Arabian delegation, made the proposal in a speech prepared for delivery before the U.N.

General Assembly. Shukairy said there was little point in another Big Four meeting since the Paris summit conference had proved a failure. "The United Kingdom and France, with all due respect, have little to say when the United Slates is in a summit conference. The two giants, the United States and the Soviet Union, can talk to each other with full authority as representing tsvo dramatically opposed worlds," Shukairy declared. "But the two giants should not be left alone." Shukairy proposed that the meeting include "leaders who have distinguished themselves not only as national heroes, but also as international figures dedicated to the cause of justice and peace." Shukairy did not say who he believed should take part, but he apparently referred to such men as President Gamal Abdel Nasser of the United Arab Republic, President Tito of Yugoslavia and Prime Minister India.

Page 13, The Dally Repbrter, Friday, September 30, Who Has A Grass Skirt? Whatever happened to that grass skirt you brought back from World War II? Is it in the attic creating a fire hazard or are the kids planning to use it for Halloween? If you'd like to do a little house cleaning and see it put to some really good use, why not loan It to the Little Theatre of Tuscarawas County? Thirty grass skirts are needed for the chorus of servicemen and nurses who will be performing the 'Honey Bun" number in South Pacific which is currently in rehearsal. This selection climaxes the first act of the musical which will be presented in Dover High School au- Philharmonic Opens 25th Season 'IlGuarany'To 'Music Man' The opening concert of the 25th season of the Tuscarawas Philharmonic Orchestra will be given Sunday in Dover High School Auditorium. Variety will spice the program as works by Beethoven, Antonio Gomez, (Haydn) Rachmaninoff, Brown and Meredith Willson will be played and sung. The program directed by Gilbert Roehm, will open with the overture from II Guarany, an opera by Antonio Carlos Gomez, 19th century Brazilian composer. Although Sr.

Gomez was born in Brazil, he received his musicial education in Italy at the Conservatory of Milano. This may explain his love of opera as a musical medium. His fame was established with the opera "II Guarany," which was premiered at La Scala on March 19, 1870, and then produced in Genoa, Florence and Rome. The second work to be undertaken will be Beethoven's Second Symphony in Major. The unison opening of this symphony's introduction has a force and simplicity that is 'both beautiful and stirring.

Gradually the rhythm and melody accelerate and the music brightens, glowing with new colors, as when a valley in high mountains takes fire with the It is Beethoven's salute to the life and splendor of the world. The principal movement, Allegro con brio, is bold and gay, beginning with a waggish theme that creeps along in the lower strings until it suddenly springs with the full force of the orchestra. The singing second theme is played by the wind instruments over the accompaniment of the strings, and jubilantly answered by the full orchestra. Between these themes are flashing episodes, but most of the movement rests upon the jester's quip of 5 (notes), a nugget so smal that few composers would have seen anything in it. This symphony will be followed by 3 numbers sung by Mrs.

Charles (Sally) Riel, well known Dover musician. A soprano, Mrs. Riel wiU perform "With Verdure Clad" from "The Creation" (Haydn) -NIKITA FROM PAGE 1 mood of the delegates and adroitly appealed to it with the attitude of a man calmly approaching solemn deliberations on life-or-death issues. And Macmillan had reasonable proposals, proposals that might provide a hopeful path toward easing tensions. Khrushchev set out, say some observers, first to intrude on that mood of reaonableness, and second to capture the center of the world stage again, so that proposals advanced by Macmillan on behalf of the West would be buried in a mass of spectacular publicity for the Russian's antics.

But from comments heard after the meeting, it seemed that his actions had left only a sense of shock among many delegates. This performance, and the belligerent language Khrushchev used after the speech was over, strengthened the impression held jy many that his mission in New York is not to reach agreements, 3ut to mark time, to fight a holding action for world communism, which is unready to move aggressively in today's dangerous circumstances. Many recalled previous Khrushchev outbursts. There was the 'toothache" incident, when Macmillan was in Moscow in February 1959 and was considered to be making progress in delicate nego- iations with the Soviets. Suddenly Khrushchev issued an enormous at Western policy and then further affronted Macmillan by pleading a toothache and avoiding neeting with the British leader.

Two outbursts that at the time ooked like tantrums occurred in Angeles and New York, dur- ng Khrushchev's tour of the' United States, when he gloweringly hreatened to pack up and go home unless his audiences listened to him respectfully. He put on another show in Paris when he exploded the summit conference last May before it could get started. He had no place to go but backward so far as the key issues of Berlin and West Germany were concerned, and he could not afford a showdown. He voided it by making sure there would be no summit meeting. A man throwing a spontaneous tantrum does not smile merrily as Khrushchev did Monday when he was thumping the table in protest against Dag Hammarskjold's defense of the secretary-general's office.

And Thursday, in the opinion of Canadian Prime Minister John G. Diefenbaker, Khrushchev once again "was enjoying his interruption." ft Serving Our Flag Pvt.

An Air Force commander would have given Harry Clever, manager of the New Philadelphia airport a poor score for his bombing effort' Thursday when he attempted to drop 3,500 ping pong balls in the New Philadelphia public square. But even an Air Force bomb sight would have helped little as the slight breeze carried the light ping pong balk off target from 1,000 feet up. Consequently, as the crowd at the square waited in vain, residents and business places a block away from the square were pelted with the balls. The ping pongs balls contained cash prizes, discount values and merchandise certificates and it was only a matter of minutes after the first drop that the certificates began coming into the downtown stores to be redeemed.

The certificates are good until Oct. 8. The National Park System of the United States includes nearly 23 million acres of land. 4 Adventist Youths Of Phila To Attend Rally In Mt. Vernon Four New Philadelphia delegates will attend the annual state wide youth rally sponsored by the Adventists in Mt.
