COURANT Camera Quiz By Arman G. Hatsian TODAY'S QUESTION From Mrs. Gladys Viets, 613 Maple Wethersfield.

Do You Think That Most People Welcome Criticism? Mrs. James T. Hunt, Birchwood Road, Windsor, housewife: I honestly think that most people might say they welcome criticism, but they really resent being critized. Why?
