llMrhnJSmUhnd-MrSr-MarjF Jones" not only is incorrect but also sl ightly salacious. Thei mailman is a very straight-laced, conservative type, which makes matters worse. Shacked up or not, these are very proper people, and we want to address them correctly. Can you help? And please don't take the easy way out and suggest "Oc-cupants." FLORIDA RETIREES DEAR RETIREES: The only correct way to address one is by his (or her) legal name. Don't worry about the' mailman: His job is to deliver the mail, not to make moral judgments.

DEAR ABBY: Two years ago, my husband's brother died and left a widow. (No children.) We agreed to let her live with us for a while so she wouldn't be alone. (Their apartment held so many memories she didn't want to live in it, without him which was understandable.) Well, it's now going on the third year, and she hasn't said a word about leaving. We do love her and didn't mind having her for the first year, but we want very murh tn hp hv nurcplvps nam She dates a little and has made a good adjustment, and it's time she started to think about moving, But how do we accomplish this without making ourselves i' talents Cooking nternational school holiday7Their alternative would be to stay in deserted dorms. Instead, many find their holidays especially pleasant through shorter travel, discovery of American holiday traditions, and the hospitality of new-found friends.

Over the years, other local churches have joined in finding homes and hospitality for the foreign students. Dear Abby Addressing oldsters who 'shack up' look like villains? TOUCHY PROBLEM DEAR TOUCHY: Tell her that you ad: mire the manner in which she has overcome her grief, and you'd be glad to help her find another apartment. It's how you look to yourselves, not to others, that counts. DEAR ABBY: We have a daughter-in- lawwhoisstealingmttindrand we don't know what to do about it. She steals small items, such as saving-stamp books, small tins of tuna and sardines, cosmetics anything she can stick into her purse.

We have mentioned having "misplaced" or "lost" specific items in her presence, hoping she will get the hint and quit stealing from us, but it has done She is not in need of anything, Abby. I cannot understand why she steals from us. Perhaps she steals from others, too. I have seen her slip things into her purse, but of course I would never humiliate her by asking her if I could go through her purse before she leaves the house. The Bible says, "No thieves shall enter the kingdom of I love my daughter-in-law and do want to see her in heaven.

If you print this maybe our son will see it and recognize it as his wife. We haven't the heart to accuse her to her face.

Have a frank talk with your son immediately and suggest that his wife get professional help. 1 By BETTY LAURENT To accompany your Thanksgiving turkey or other fowl, we publish today a recipe for the best dressing I've ever tasted.
