We have been going steady for a year and plan to marry when we graduate. Larry heard about a very good book on sex and marriage, and he wants to get it so we can study it together. It is not dirty, Abby. It was written by a doctor and is supposed to have a lot of good stuff about the importance of sex as it relates to married life. The reason I am writing is because I have always told my mother everything, and (or some reason I haven't told her about this I hate to sneak.

What do you think? LARRY'S GIRL DEAR GIRL: I think you haven't told your mother because deep down you know It's wrong. "Studying" a subject is sure lo stimulate one's curiosity and interest. And there's no point in "studying" the violin if you have to wait 2 years lo practice. DEAR ABBY: I answer the telephone for a rather large concern. We have these two nice young fellows who do a real good job.

But they could do better if their wives would quit calling them at work so much. I can understand emergency calls, but these wives call up to ask, "Are you planning to work late?" Or, "We got a letter from Joe today." Or, "The baby cut a tooth." Abby, know both these wives and I wouldn't hurt their feelings for the world, and I certainly wouldn't say anything to the fellows, but if you print this, they may get the hint. Besides, it's not fair to call a person at work to just gab about nothing on company time TELEPHONE GIRL DEAR GIRL: Your point is well taken. And may I add that when a man conies home after work and asks his wife "What's new?" it will give them something to talk about. DEAR just finished a best-selling book on child rearing.

The author said that when a child and his parents visit people, the burden of responsibility for the child's behavior is left with the child and the HOST! In other words, a child is more apt to obey an outsider than his own parents. This really upset me, Abby. When parents come to visit me and bring their children along, I don't think it's MY place to discipline their children. Can't parents see a child walking on the sofa? Why should I have to tell somebody else's child how to behave when his own mother is sitting right there? What's your idea? MRS. G.

W. DEAR MRS. G. Same as yours. Some of the theories in child rearing books make fascinating reading, but unless they "work" they aren't much good.

Don't believe everything you read. DEAR ABBY: Tell "FLAT IN ATLANTA" not to feel so sorry -for herself. If it weren't for US, those gorgeous, full-bosomed gals wouldn't look so good. "FLAT IN BUFFALO" Everybody has problem. Wtod For personal nply write to Abby.

HESEKIAH' A TERRIBLE thing happened as soon as Santa left Santa Land. There was a misshapen old dwarf named Hesekiah whose only interest in life was the invention of a machine to take the place of people. He had been working on his invention for 400 years but he hadn't gotten any further than the discovery of a powerful salt that could turn people into spinning tops. This what Hesekiah wanted while he continued to work on his machine to take the place of people. Before he turned people into spinning tops Hesekiah thought it would be a good idea to try out his salt on some creatures who were people but still not exactly people.

That is to say elves and fairies and such folk. Hesekiah thought, "What better plaof lo go than Santa Land?" There would be a lot of creatures he could turn into tops. More important, there were well-equipped where he could continue to work on his machine to take (he place of people. Hesekiah arrived in Santa Land at the very moment Santa and Ding Dong flew off to Hippievillc. This was unfortunate for Santa Land because it so happened that Santa knew the one thing in the world that would stop Hesekiab and turn kirn into a nothing.

With Santa out of the way things were easy for Hesekiah. He opened his wchel and put on gloves and i hood that covered his head with only two tiny slits to see through. He took out a long blow pipe and carefully filled it with Hesekiah arrived in Santa Land. The country has Us Christmas tree.

The llrst national Christmas tree Irom the state of Utah will take Its place of honor on the Ellipse between the White House and the Washington Monument In the nation's capitol. This tree Is a 115-year-old Engelmann spruce from the Ulnta National Forest. The 74-foot tree was trucked to Heber City, Utah, wrapped In a protective coat of 380 feet of burlap and loaded aboard a flatcar for mile rail Journey to Washington, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, The tree Is 24 Inches across at the stump and branches out to a diameter of 20 feet at Its widest point.

It had a round bowl with tiny holes in the bottom and a long stem to blow through. Hesekiah sneaked up on Santa's porch and knocked.

Mrs. Claus camc.to the door. "Goodness!" she cried. "Are you another hippie?" For answer Hesekiah stuck the stem of the pipe in his mouth and blew. The salt in the bowl showered over poor Mrs.

Claus. She threw up her hands in surprise and began to spin in a circle. As she spun faster and faster she grew smaller and smaller until she was a very small top. fat in the middle and pointed on the end, spinning away in pool of salt on the floor. Hesekiah rushed to the doll shops where (be elves were making dolls that could talk and walk and some that even file their nails.

Hesekiab flung open the door and blew on bis pipe with all his might. The salt sprayed over the astonished elves. In two seconds they were tiny, tops spinning madly around the unfinished dolls. Hesekiah went to the wagon shop and the sport shop and the electric train shop and the dollhouse shop and even to the reindeer stables. Everywhere he went he turned the creatures into spinning tops.

Finally there was no left in Santa Land except-the wicked Hesekiah. He put away his pipe a.id discarded his gloves and hood and boots, being careful that no salt should get on his skin. Then he went to the master tool shop where no one was ever allowed except Santa himself. There Santa kept his finest tools and all his books of instruction on how to make things. Hesekiah locked and bolted the door.

He said to himself gleefully, "Here I will stay until I have built my machine to take the place of people." Tomorrow: The Hippies and SOHIO ATTENTION!
