What's Happening? A friend told me about a pair of squirrels which are very tame. They come onto her back porch and climb the screen door. When she is outdoors they scamper about and run around much like small kittens. If she puts out any bread for the birds, they decide it was meant for them and eat it while she watches. She hasn't tried to tame them but she -thinks someone had them as pets.

If she throws a shoe toward them, they stand and look at her instead of running away. She also mentioned the large number of butterflies which come to her flower gardens. They are all colors and come in groups instead of a single one. I have seen more butterflies at the lake this year but haven't seen them in groups. They fly near the lake and some are way out over the water.

I guess they can fly over water as well as over land but I always worry whether they will it across to the other side of the land. What has been happening out your way? A letter to me in care of your newspaper will reach me, and I'll tell all of my readers about your happenings. Today I'm telling how to make seven day sweet pickles sent to me by a friend.

Connecticut Newlyweds Dear Alaska No Hunting Ground DEAR ABBY: This is in response to "Looking in St. Paul," who wanted to know where she and a friend could find eligible men. PLEASE, don't steer them to Alaska. True, there are many men up here, but they are either itinerant military, or summer job seekers who are living off welfare, or itinerant workers who come here to make a fast buck and take it back to their families. The number of unemployed men in Alaska is staggering.

Abby, please give your readers the following message: If you don't have a job and a place to live in Alaska, don't come. The company I worked for transferred me to Alaska 18 years ago. I've remained because I like it, but the changes that have taken place here because of the oil boom are disheartening. Crime is rampant because so many are jobless. The schools are crowded, and too few people care about the environment.

We Alaskans welcome people to our state who have something to offer and will be good citizens. But we don't want people who bleed the land, destroy our wildlife, rip off our neighbors and make money here to spend elsewhere. ALASKAN DEAR ALASKAN: All right, that settles it. I'll amend my advice to women preparing to go on a man-hunt: Forget Alaska! DEAR ABBY: In the four years I have lived in Florida, I have seen only one person wearing a Phi Beta Kappa key who has actually earned it himself. However, on other occasions, I have seen women wearing Phi Beta Kappa keys on charm bracelets.

On inquiry, I learned that the keys belonged to their husbands. The women did not seem the slightest bit embarrassed to be wearing a symbol of academic achievement that they themselves did not earn. Now that Phi Beta Kappa is approaching its 200th birthday, I wish you would state your opinion of this practice. NOT CLEAR IN CLEARWATER, FLA. DEAR NOT: Wearing ANY unearned symbol of achievement is dishonest, whether it's a Phi Beta Kappa key, a purple heart or a bronze star.

DEAR ABBY: I am writing this for those waitresses who don't seem to know which side their bread is buttered on. I have never seen it fail. Every time my husband and I sit down to order in a restaurant, the waitress looks only at my husband and asks him what he wants. She ignores me completely. He is the only one who is asked if he wants more coffee.

I know that is where the tip comes from, but if the waitress was smart, she would pay a little attention to the woman, because she's usually the one who decides where they dine. DEAR LEFT: Don't blame the waitress for turning to the gentleman for the order. It's customary for him to order for both the lady and himself. However, she should ask the lady (first) if she wants more coffee. MR.
