Big, Fat Aunt Breaks Then Gripes Dear Ann Landers: I have an aunt who is very fat. She is also very rich. Her husband owns half the lumber in North Carolina. This fat aunt came to visit us a few days ago. I know it was a dumb thing to do but I accident- ly left my ukelele on a chair in the living room.

Well, this fat aunt goes and sits right down on my uke and smashes it in a hundred pieces. She didn't say one word about buying me a new uke. All she could talk about was how kids today dont take care of their Your Problems By Ann SOUVENIRS- Mrs. R. E.

Shipps, Rantoul, shows a grass apron, a monkey pod tray and a fish-shape holder brought from Hawaii where she and her husband visited a daughter and family, the Phil Whitakers and Scott. Mrs. Shipps gave an account of her trip for Elm Grove Homemakers HDU. things and how the sound of that collapsing ukelele almost gave her heart failure. I think it was mighty cheap of my aunt not to offer to buy me a new ukelele.

She could buy me a whole store full of ukes and not miss the money. Please tell me what you think about this, and you can help me in any way I would appreciate it a whole lot. FORMER UKE.

Clogston, installation. There might have been a darn, ing needle, scissors, or a small child on that chair. This column appears in many cities in North Carolina. Let's hope Auntie sees your letter and comes through with a new uke. lele.

Dear Ann Landers: Your advice to the three career girls who were planning a vacation together to "split up" and "avoid hunting in packs," was as dumb a piece of counsel as I have ever read. I am a bachelor 50 years of age. The idea that any girl (alone or with friends) could snag a hus. band while on a vacation is in. sane.

Any man who has the brains he was born with knows he can't tell anything about a woman unless he sees her in her home environment. A man wants to know about a woman's cooking. He wants to see what her apartment or home looks like. He wants to know about her reputation. He is interested in the way she treats her mother and father.

These things cannot be learned on a vacation. Where did you get that piece of advice, Ann? Out of a travel brochure? You sound as dumb as the girls who wrote. I call it the crippled leading the blind. FREE AND HAPPY Dear Free: You sound like such a sweet, adorable guy I cant understand why you are still single. Maybe it's because the women in your home town all know you.

Why don't you take a vacation, Bub? Dear Ann Landers: We have known this couple for several years. They are the kind who are so lovey-dovey on Monday you could throw up. On Tuesday you hear that "Lovey" gave "Dovey" a black eye and that she was moved in with her mother. Now that you have the back, ground, here is the question: This couple has a habit of light, ing cigarets for each other. For example, she lights two cigarets at one time, placing both cigarets between her lips.

She then takes one cigaret and places it between his lips. I'm sure they think this creates the image of "togetherness." To me it looks cheap and unappetizing. How does it look to you? INQUIR. ING Dear Just: Cheap and unappetizing. Confidential to TRIAL BY TRY.

Split pea soup is delicious made with a ham bone; but sometimes to ring a change, use bone- in pork shoulder instead of the ham bone.

When the soup has finished cooking, remove the pork and strain the soup. Slice the meat from the bone and return to the soup.
