Ann Landers Soys: WedhewUy, Augiit 9, 6--The Sattu Jountl ravor Dear AMD Landers: I had a very humiliating experience and would like you to tell me if am. right or wrong to feel insulted. i I've been on the heavy side.all my life. Diets and exercise wear me out'so I don't with them. I wear dark conservative, well-cut dresses and no one could guess my weight within 25 pounds.

Even my husband doesn't know how much I weigh. Last' -night i i Would you have been lets humiliated if the chair had collapsed under you? I figure the hostess did you a favor. Dear An-: My passed away, four months ago and her husband asked me to take their 14 year old boy temporarily. I was happy to do.it. We have a son 12 and a girl nine.

The three children get along well together I enjoy having "a second friends i sti ed French vincial. who refurn- i Pro- I was just about to sit down when AM the rushed over to me and in a voice that could be heard in the next block said "Please, don't sit in that chair. It's an antique and not very strong!" I took another chair but I was really burned up. My husband says am too sensitive, I.say the hostess was cruel and used terrible judgment. Am I right! --DEEPLY HURT Dear Deeply: Sorry, but I agree with your husband.

"Pleasingly plump" people should knovr that antique chairs are not for them. If they don't they should be told. And you were. and The boy's father told me last night be is going to marry a girl who works, for him. The son does not like this girl because, I'm to say, he conducted a rath- one of my best girl 'friends is getting married.

I was asked to be in the wedding ceremony. I have, invited a certain fellow to be my date for'the He is rather new in town and has not yet met the or groom. I got permission from both of them to have him as my escort, and I'm sure we'll all be getting together before long. The question is, do you think the fellow should pay for half of my wedding gift-so it-can from both of us? Please advise. --SEVENTEEN Dear Seventeen: Pay for the wedding gift yourself.

The fellow er open affair with her while his wife' was alive and it caused much unhappinesj in the family. The Father wrnts the son to come home to live and the boy to stay with us. My husband should go feels the his father boy and learn to live with his problem. .1 say no. What do you A.L.

Dear A.L-: A boy 14 is old enough to decide where he wants to live. I hope his father will permit him to stay with you. If the father insists that the boy come, home, he will, of course, have to obey. But don't rent his Auntie. I'll bet he'll back.

Angeio Patri Soys: Too Many Children's tBooks Lack Imagination am deeply interested in reading for children of aE ages.

My special interest is with the books the youngest ones are given, and the ones that are read to them. Every month I a books sent out by the various guilds, and always, the ones I read with the sharpest are the ones for the young- Their reading Patri material seems to be empty- food for their minds. Often the deal with facts and informatio about nature-bugs, dogs, etc. information is all very we in its place. But knowledge with out wonder, without awe, withou imagination, vithovit spiritual im far as my search goes, Aesop alone in this high spot.
