They traveled there to present an award to another state of ficer. The recipient, Mrs.

Paul A Bottea of 300 Fairview state auxiliary third vice presi dent and membership chairman, is seriously ill and in critical condition at the hospital. Mrs. Stanley Tupper of Bar- rington, state president of the auxiliary, presented Mrs. Bot tea with a plaque inscribed "American Legion Auxiliary National Membership Award for 1971." It was topped with a gold star. Mrs.

Bottea had won for the state auxiliary, as well as for herself, awards for establishing 95 per cent of the goal set for membership. The award was to have been presented at the aux- iliary national convention in August, but because of Mrs. Bottea's illness the national president, Mrs. Deverre Harper of West Grove, Iowa, granted the exception. The award was accomplished by a letter from Mrs.

Harper Who wrote: "Dear Mrs. Bottea: Heartiest congratulations to you an(j the members of the Depart- ment 0f n6w Jersey for having won the January 31st National Membership Award. Sincerely, Mattie Harper." Others in the ftaintf mi like this and what can be done about it Baffled In Charleston DEAR BAFF: Some poeple are so insecure that they can't accept anything not even a compliment When you tell them they look nice, they reply, "Oh I look terrible! "The problem is a lack of self esteem. They must be constantly on the giving end because they feel unworthy of receiving. Not allowing friends and family to reciprocate is not generosity.

It is selfishness turned inside out. DEAR ANN: The letter from Two-Ton Tommy (wife of "Worried In was fascinating. I saw myself in that letter because I am also eating myself into the grave. And I am doing it intentionally, as you pointed out. Life has no meaning and I figurel might as well get whatever pleasures I can.

Like Tommy, eating is the most fun I have, too. Although Tommy and I are soul-mates, tation were Mrs. Bottea husband; her mother, Mrs. R. A.

"THE SPRING Fur Fashion Show," for the benefit of the Sisters of Our Lady of Africa, ilfNf; ptlillit pggjL DEAR ANN: Being an avid reader of your column, I thought perhaps if I waited a while someone would write in with MY problem. But so ar, no luck and I do need help. I married a divorced man who had a daughter by his first wife. The daughter gave birth to a son about a year ago.

She is not very fond of me, although Lord knows I've tried to be pleasant and get along with her. The problem is that she does not want her son to know me by my rightful name which is "step-Grandma." She insists that her son call me "Auntie." This is my first marriage and I don't want any problems with my husband's relatives. If the child calls me "Auntie, won't lie be terribly confused when he reaches the age' of understanding and discovers that I am his granddady's wife and not his aunt? I'd like your opinion. Rankled DEAR RANK: "Step-Grandma" is quite a mouthful for a child who is learning to talk. Since the boy's mother is teaching him to call you "Auntie," accept the name and say no more.

When the child reaches the age of understanding he will realize you are not his aunt. Until then it doesn't matter. DEAR ANN: My sister-in-law is the kind of person who will do anything in the world for a friend but she will not let anyone do anything for her. What is wrong with her? Why doesn't she realize that an honorable person appreciates the chance to reciprocate? My sister-in-law is the salt of the earth. Her whole life has been spent doing generous deeds for others.

But after being on the receiving end for so long, people feel uncomfortable. No one likes to take favors all the time. Please explain why she is a woman. Wis now he hates witeturnea nun on years ago ana all women. My husband turned Lutherans to hold have sent flowers and cards.
