Grcfno 964-3601 GreoR Clover Dairy Mile South of Schaefferstown Route 501 MILK FRESH EGGS ICE CREAM DEAR MARY HAWORTH: An alarm bell rang in my mind as I read in your column, recently, a South bound matron's statement that she and her husband would be vacationing 1 in Florida for several weeks "visiting with many friends, retirees and others, all of whom want us to stay with them "We would prefer motels," she adds, "but know they would be hurt." It would be awkward to dispute the good lady's claim to her face, but at this distance I say, "I have my doubts." Every year I find myself commiserating with dozens of retiree neighbors, worn to a frazzle by vacationing house- guests. Meanwhile my doctor husband is trying to relieve their resultant backaches, headaches, nerves, hysteria, dyspepsia, phlebitis, hypertension and angina pains. Tourist Guests Can Be Nuisance People from up North, coming to Florida, fail to realize: 1. Likely they are just one of many tourists stopping to visit the retirees. 2.

The retiree housewife generally is in her 80s; household help is hard to come by in retirement enclaves; even the affluent do-it- themselves; and there isn't much catering or delivery service available. 3. Retirees make new friends take on new ways, participate in local activities which engage their time and lead to commitments. Hence unexpected (as most of them are) tourist houseguests can be hideously inconvenient. I have a list of guidelines that the South-bound matron and others like her should observe: 1, Unless you are a Matron Planning 'Many Friends close relative or very old friend, stay at a motel.

Check in, relax, then phone your friends and ask them to join you for a meal. They can insist on alternative plans if they wish. How To Insure Pleasant Visit If you do wind up at their house for overnight, take them out to dinner! The rule is, however: To be a houseguest, you should have been asked specifically, in advance, for a specific time. Otherwise, don't barge in. 2.

Never, never, never hit town at 11::45 a.m. and telephone to anounce gleefully: "We're here and coming out to see you." do it at 4:45 p.m. either. I'm terribly sorry if this sounds cranky but I've longed for the opportunity to put in a word for our retiree neighbors faced with this dilemma. We are old-timers here, surrounded by family and friends, so we don't have the problem.

Campaigns Against Itinerant Spongers If you are in truth Northern friends of Florida folk, prove it by showing them real consideration when vacationing here. I offer this deposition as founder and president of the local Anti-Itinerant- Spongers League. Sincerely, P.C. Farther Word From Suburbia DEAR MARY HAWORTH: Some anonymous neighbor clipped, underlined and sent me your recent commentary on a woman's statement that suburban housewives face diminishing privacy today, and that their restless search for togetherness, tends to end in ill feeling. The gist of the argument was that good neighbors aren't seen or heard too often.

I find this moral sound. It is a fact that we in Suburbia live cheek-by-jowl, property-wise. But a prudent person doesn't discuss his family's private business, nor the neighbors', with outsiders. Says Gossips Need Feasts Of Intimacy Still, it is an important element of worthwhile living, wherever you live, to be a helpful nieghbor, though I've known some neighbors who wouldn't agree. I don't give or go to coffees, nor am I intimate with any neighbors.

I show great respect for their privacy and expect equal consideration. This baffles suburbia's gossips and pry-types, who seem to need feasts of intimacy to keep their time and mind occupied. To have peace and contentment in family life, you must be true to your tastes, convictions and aspirations, never minding what others say. They will talk in any case. Endorses Poet's Praise of Fences Our household enjoys golf, pingpong, pool, card games and darts, on our own property, with our real friends.

One must be busy to be happy, especially in Suburbia. Such is my philosophy, and if it gives my anonymous neighbor a better insight into my thinking, fine. Sincerely, W. F. DEAR W.F.: In short, you agree with New England's poet laureate Robert Frost that "good fences make good neighbors." M.
