If not, what gives you the right to determine whether or not people need professional care in this field? On several occasions you have advised that some friend or relative he examined by a head doctor. I assume you would all humans conform to one pattern. Did it ever occur to you that some people LIKE bein? different, and are not mentally disturbed? Take that woman who wears muu muus on the street and likes to talk to bus drivers. Cmildn't she simply be trying to show society that we are not all puppets of conformity? DISTURBED DEAR DISTURBED: The warn- an with muu muui might have been perfectly sound, right up to the point where she was described "eating tranquiliters like Then, I fugjested -ike might need professional help. It ii no insult to be directed to a psychiatrist.

Furthermore, it't better to sec one and NOT need treatment than not to set rat and NEED treatment. DEAR ABBY: 1 have been married for 17 years and have three children. My husband left for a Senior Center Corner MM. 0. A.

What do you say to a man like that? FED UP DEAR FED: If what he fears might happen HAS happened, I'd say, "Goodbye, Dear, CALL ME every other night in ease I have tell you." If it has NEVER happened, send me your name and address and I'll five you another answer. DEAR ABBY: Please tell "Canoga Park" that the main reason why so few Americans fly flags is: "On the go Americans" are never sure if they'll be home by sunset to take in the flag so, rather than show this disrespect to the flag, they do not put it out. TRUE-BLUE AMERICAN CONFIDENTIAL TO SUFFERING Don't give up now. Even a "heel" has his Achilles. POLLY'S POINTERS Vacation Of The Year, And For Only Pennies POLLY CRAMER DEAR POLLY Last year our family took a trip the country to Oregon.

We learned a lot and are starting on our vacation this year better prepared. We want to pass on to others the way our dad and mom have worked things out. As camping stuff is used only use them for swimming and for going to and from the shower. A large clear plastic bag is for dry swim suits and another for wet ones. Mother packed hooded sweaters and warm things in a large cardboard container (a big metal lard can would do fine.) This was labeled and put in the once or twice a year, we did not! trailer.

Two suitcases then hold want to buy anything expensive Dad built a small closed-m trailer to behind a car. There will be seven of us and space for all that we'll need was a problem, Mom and I made sleeping bags from old quilts and lined each with an old blanket. They were folded in half and sewed together on three sides. We used heavy nylon thread. If the blankets are needad at home next winter, we can cut the stitches and they are still bed size.

Tapes were attached to the bags so they can be rolled up and stacked when not in use. Dad bought each of us an inexpensive air mattress and these can be used at the beach or in the back yard later on. Each child is responsible for looking after his own belongings. Mom made each of ua a toilet kit out of an old shower curtain. They are stitched in sections and each holds a washcloth, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste and a comb.

A cloth bag for each of us holds a pair of pajamas, a towel, thongs and a short beach coat and the toilet kit. The beach coats were made from old, knitted slipcovers. We all our other traveling clothes. The boys wear mostly knitted tee shirts. Dad put a clothespole into the trailer for coats.

Since mom does not like to sleep in a tent, she made a mattress for herself out of an old feather ticking. This, too, rolls up. Pillowcases for the trip were made from dark cretonne. Towels are also deep colors which mom felt were more practial than white ones. With a charcoal grille, aluminum foil, a few pots and pans, paper plates, an ice chest and water jugs, we are on our way.

Even though we traveled 5,200 miles last year, the trip cost very little. In three weeks this year we hope to cover even more GIRLS What lucky to have a mom and dad who 'go to tuch lengths to make it possible for them 'o see their country and have vacations they will never forget. Such ingenuity can make a little bit of money go a long way and they have my vote as our Vacation Family of the Year. Such families are the true backbone of America and would mako our lathers very While so many people are away on vacation, we are staying home trying to keep the grass alive in the front lawn, catching up on reading, and trying to keep cool. Always with an eye for the amusing From Christian Life: "Dr.

Richard Cooke, Gary A wise young man who intends to get married will do his best to well acquainted with his future mother-in-law. The kind of person she is will be a strong indication of the kind of wife her daughter will make for him.

Here are a few things a smart young man should find out about a mother before he marries her daughter: One. What is the mother's attitude toward her own husband? If she regards her husband as of less importance than her has probably raised a spoiled daughter, whose interest in getting married will alt be self-interest. Two. What is the mother's attitude toward the job of homemaking? If she belittles it and has not taught her daughter anything tious mother who has a shallow set of standards may pass them on to her daughter. So if the mother sets great store by money and social position, the young man should make sure the daughter doesn't share those of course, he shares them himself.

In which case, she would probably be a good wife for him. Five. Is the mother a happy, cheerful person? If she is, chances are the daughter will be easier to live with than if she had grown up in a family bossed by an unhappy, neurotic woman. These clues will go a long way in telling a man the kind of person his wife will be and the kind of home she will make for him, Party Honors" Joann Morgan Miss Joann Morgan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
