He said, wanted to keep them awake and it really did the trick, didn't it?" I had to agree, but I think it was in poor taste.

He claims it was fun and made the evening much more interesting. If I'm a prude, Ann, tell me. If he's a dirty old man, tell him. We'll both be watching for your answer. Portland Wife.

DEAR PORT: Your husband ought to save the nudies for his more vulgar male friends. A good photographer shouldn't need to sling in shots of naked ladies to keep his audience awake. Tell your husband Ann votes no in mixed company. DEAR ANN LANDERS: Unlike that pathetic, sniveling girl who signed herself "Pushed Out of the Nest," I never weep when I depart from a visit with my parents. Their parents are still living (they are in their 90s) so who needs me? "Family" means husband and children so far as I am concerned.

It does not mean parents, grandparents, sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews, cousins, great-aunts and uncles. I grew up in the hot, flat San Joaquin Valley of California, surrounded by Okie and hillbilly relatives in Tennessee and Kentucky. Like dozens of other transplanted hicks we spent every holiday driving back and forth over the Mo-j a Desert, the Arizona Desert and the New Mexico Desert. Where were we going? To visit grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. My moth- i er and dad had this thing about being with "family." Every cockeyed holiday we had to drive back and forth, he highlight of our Christmas trip was the gift opening.

To this day I gag when I see anything crocheted. Do you think I'm a coldblooded daughter? If so how many other daughters (and sons) manage to survive without an annual pilgrimage to visit their parents. My guess is plenty. Weaned in D.C DEAR DAUGHTER: You are more than weaned, dear, you'r alienated. I can't help but wonder what your parents did to you when you were very young that made you feel as you do.

How sad that yen don't care if you ever see them again. I'd give anything In the world if I could see mine, DEAR ANN LANDERS: No big deal, but something that needs settling. I have pierced ears. My girlfriend had her ears pierced a few months ago. We decided to exchange earrings.

Mom says this is not sanitary. She claims I might get an infection because these earrings go through the flesh. Is this true or false? Delia. DEAR DELLA: The earrings not go through the flesh) they go through a hole which has healed. No problem, unless, of course, the girl had an Infectlonjn that nDdarn art without help?" she asked.

Miss Saint-Martin says that contemporary artist has something serious to commu nicate. "Any painter is capable of playing a joke once, but any one who has been painting for a long time has a deep need for self expression, and people are losing a great deal when they don try to understand." She is the author of a boook. "Structures" de 1'Espace Pictu- rale," published in 1968, in winch she used research in psy chology and science to build an understanding of modem art. Reminiscing of her 12 year stint as Chatelaine editor Miss Saint-Martin said that while the magazine isn't militantly feminist she believes it has done a good deal to influence Quebac women in their fight for women's rights. "Quebec women are the most liberated in me world since the changes of legislation in 1966.

Now they are on completely equal legal grounds with men' she remarked. And she thinks that they are taking full advantage of their recent gains, pointing out that one in three of married women in Quebec is in the labor force, a figure equal with that of the rest of the country. "I don't necessarily believe that the number of working women is indicative of progress," Miss Saint Martin adds swiftly. "But it is a sign of changing society. Through working, many women will find ways to define what they want in life and how to achieve it.

They will realize what a strong force they are in society, and that their place is not neces sarily in the home." Thanks to communications from newspapers to television life has changed swiftly for women in rural Quebec too, she says. "TV has probed women's lives, informed them, made By THEODORE M. BERNSTEIN Poor positioning. The obituary of a Soviet ballerina contained this sentence: "She settled in Vienna during the war with her husband, who died last spring." Looks like a pretty 6tormy marriage. But it wouldn't if the phrase "during the war" were placed at the head of the sentence, where it belongs.

Legalisms. Recalling a previous column that' was critical of the legal type of writing, Bernard F. "Cataldo of the You're Sew Right by DALE CAVANAGH HOW TO ATTACH BUTTONS TO FURS, LEATHERS AND SUEDES Attaching buttons to fabric is elementary. You simply sew them on. It's not quite so simple to attach buttons to fur pelts, leather or suede skins.

Each time you pierce a pelt with a needle you leave a permanent hole. Sewing a button means piercing the pelt several times within a small area which weakens the skin. IT the button pops, it can take a piece of skin with it and THAT leaves one big hole. If skin holes are not exactly what you had in mind, there is a better way. A unique method of attaching buttons is used by furriers for their most percious pelts.

It is suitable for use on any skin or pelt, real or otherwise. With this method you use a shank type button (1), one with a stem underneath of metal, plastic or self material. The button is actually tied on, instead of being sewn. And if you prefer, yop can pin it on. (8) Either way it gives you the option to change buttons in a hurry if you should so desire (from plain to sparkly for instance) or to remove them easily when the garment roust be cleaned.

4 -y 7 1. Choose a shank type button. 2. Affix a square of non-woven interfacing (1" or larger) to wrong side of skin, centered at button position. Attach to real skins with rubber cement, to plastics with suitable glue or use heat fusible materials.

3. Using the corner of a razor blade or other sharp instrument, make a tiny vertical slit, from wrong side, through skin to admit button shank. 4. Insert button shank through slit from outside. 5.

Cut a 3" strip of scam tape and slip through shank, on insido. 6. Cut a disc of leather 1" in diameter and punch two holes, one each side of center, with on awl. This disc acts as a stay and must be fairly firm. If a soft leather or suede is used make a disc sandwich with two layers fused together.

A twenty-five cent piece is a handy guide for cutting circles. 6. Place disc stay over button shank on inside and run ends of seam tape through holes. 7. Knot ends of seam tope.

The button is tied on. 8. Alternative: Cut disc as in step 6. Punch one hole at center instead of two. Slip disc over shank and fasten shank through hole with'n small brass safety pin.

Omit seam tape. NOTE: When the buttons are attached oither way above, they ore fastened on the wrong side of the skin or pelt through a single layer only, not through the facing as is the case with sewn-on buttons, sometimes. The facing, if any, covers and hides the whole works.

The fact that three out of the five women members in the present Parliament are from Quebec is a direct result of the women's revolution there, be lieves Miss Saint-Martin, and she likes to think that her work at Chatelaine is partly responsible for the change in attitude BERNSTEIN On Words Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania adds this bit of interesting information; "Sometimes redundancy in legal phrases is a vestigial remnant of the Norman Conquest.

Of course, to the lowly worker in the fields a particular animal was sheep in his Anglo-Saxon tongue, whereas to the conquering lord presiding at the table the flesh of that animal was mutton in his Norman-French speech. "To insure understanding on all sides, some legal phrases included both languages. An example is will and testament, in which the Anglo-Saxon and the Norman-French words are coupled to describe the same document." All right, but 900 years later should we still have to indemnify and hold harmless (there's one for you) the perpetrators today of these annoying tautologies? Word oddities. Some of those legalisms make lawyers sound as pompous as all get-out. Pompous, of course, is the adjective form of pomp, meaning ostentation or stately display, Pomp is a word whose sound is quite in tune with its sense.

It suggests the boom of drums, which in turn suggests a parade. And parade was its original meaning. It comes from thej Greek pompe, a ceremonial i procession. (c) 1973 Theodore M. Bernstein Birthday Club SATURDAY, JAN 13 Colleen Farrell, 11 years.

Contemporary art is close to us it's a dynamic set-; up for experience, and I want to-help people get the most pos-. sible out of it," she said.
