Problem? You, Too!
By Abigail Van Buren

DEAR ABBY: I don't know why, but I have always ielt
that my mother-in-law never really liked me I have never
done anything to make her dislike me. but I have a feeling she
does i^way She never gives me a compliment no matter how
hard:f“try. Neither does she criticize me But I wish just once
she Would tell me I looked nice, or I set a nice table, or
something like that
I’ve tried awfully hard to please her. Abby, but I have been
married for 12 years and I still feel the same way Maybe it's
just “intuition,” but I can’t help it I’ve mentioned this to m\
husband I not in a nagging way I and he says, 'Don’t be sillv
She likes you fine ” Why do 1 feel this way. and how can I get
over this feeling’' NOT. LIKED
DEAR NOT LIKED: Whether it's "intuition," or lack ol
self-confidence, cr even hyper-sensitivity, the only "cure'’ is to
quit worrying about it. If it’s any comfort to you. you are a
sis ter'in one of the world’s largest sororities. No meetings, no
dues, dad all the members are "resigned, although in good
standing.

We were unable to get an ac-
curate report of the pints of

cause Mrs. Pete Waldrop La

pital in Fort Worth and the

it was estimated they fell juet
short of the 30 pints hoped for
from this area. The Liona Club
sponsored the drive which was
hek) in the Community Building
with the women of the Garden
Club serving as hostesses thr-
oughout the day.
Sundown is happy to welcome
the Bob Miller family to town.

Dear ^olk*;
If you' have outdoor picnic
or pr.tlo tables. . .
1 hgd a bang-up idea while
washing off our table last week
end. 1 covered both table and
benches with a big piece of
heavy: plastic when we were th-
rough; using them. This can ei-
ther be tied with strong cord
or weighted down with rocks
or sopw of those house plants
which:need sunshine.
Codering the table with plas-
tic sgves lots of cleaning time
which! is most important Time
Is th6 most valuable thing we
have »nd energy comes next
So jlf you’ve got an old tar-
pr.uiiiL drop cloth or raincoat,
dig ’An out and use ’em. Worn
raincoats can be cut down.
And old, twin-size, contour
sheet:exactly fits most tables.

Dear Heloise:
We make many short week-
end car trips. For these trips
I usually pack a week-end case,
a train case and a carton con-
taining all our swimming gear.
I spread the luggage out in
the car trunk but 1 leave my
dresses on hangers. Then I
cover them with a plastic rain-
coat, button it down the front
and lay them across the lug-
gage.
The dresses don’t get wrink-
led and it leaves the Inside of
the car uncluttered with noth-
ing blocking our vision out the
back.

Dear Heloise:
When packing for a p cnic
I wrap the knife, fork, etc.,
for each individual in piper
napkins just like most cafet-
erias do. 1 do the same with
the cooking knives and forks.
I pet these rolls in a flat
cardboard box and the blades
are protected. Also, I don’t
“peel” my fingernails when fu-
mbling in the picnic box.

T wo men met each other and
began to converse. One man was
huge, and the other was quite
small in stature. The small man
was admiring the physical size
of the other. Finally, almost in
awe, the smaller man said,
“Boy, if 1 were as big as you,
I wouldn’t be afraid of anything.
I would go out in the wood s and
find the biggest bear there, and
I’d tear him limb from limb.”
The big fellow replied with a
smile, “There are a lotoflittle
bears out in the woods. Why
don’t you go out and tackle one
of them"? Bears come in differ-
ent sizes, you know.”
That little story takes quite
a slap at an all too common
practice. That is the practice
of being content to always be a
critical spectator, content to
stapfl on the. sidelines .and, toll
“the "Vest ho* they should play
or should have played. Some
forget that there are positions
suitable for all sizes. Someone
has appropriately said that what
every baseball team needs is a
play er who can hit any and every’
pitch out of the park, can field
every ball hit in his general vi-
cinity, can makeaperfeetthrow
every time, can beat out every
bunt, and can steal a base at
26 Americans
Killed In
Sea Tragedy
SAIGON (U PI)— naming jel
fuel ravaged the decks of the
carrier Forrestal today and I
killed at least 26 Americar
officers and men in the second
sea fire tragedy of the Vietnair
war.
The four-hour holocaust was
unleashed when a warplane’s
belly tank ruptured. It trapped
pilots in their cockpits and
detonated bomt* and rockets
primed for momentary use
against North Vietnam.
Some sailors were still feared
missing in the waters of the
Gulf of Tonkin after leaping
from the red-hot flightdeck.
At least 29 multi-million
dollar warplanes were de-
stroyed on the 76,000-ton car-
rier which had 4,400 officers
and men aboard.
Damaging Loss
Even more damaging to the
American war effort would be
the loss of pilots in the tragedy.
The escalating air war has
taken its toll in airmen downed
over North Vietnam and there
has been a dearth of pilot
recruits to the point where
veterans are being urged to
stay on for another tour.
While some crewmen flung
themselves into the sea to
escape the inferno, others
dashed through flames to save
2,300 pound bombs from explod-
ing.
then use it in my salads, etc.
This is the only way 1 can
eat them uncooked.
Mrs. I.ucy York
Dear Heloise:
If you buy your daily papir
from a street vendor, follow
the practice of carrying a
clear plastic bag to slip it In.
This prevents getting new-
sprint on your hands or cloth
ing and keeps your prper dry
if it should rain on your way
home.
Mrs. McGregor
any time against any pitcher
in the league, but they can’t
get him to lay down his hotdog
and come out of the grand-
stand.
No, we may not be as big as
someone else, nor as loaded
with talent, but there are scores
of small tasks that are worth-
while and need to be done.There
are a lot of little bears thaf’us
little fellows” need to get out
in the woods and tear limb from
limb. Let’s get off the sidelines
and into the game to strive for
the right and the good. There
are already too many that would
rather argue about the rules
than play the game anyhow. We
can find that bear that is just
our size. That will beat criticiz-
ing the other fellow fornotflnd-
ing his. Anyhow, it is not the
size ai the dog in the fight that
counts, it is the size of the
fight in the dog.
Most of us can recall brief
encounters with some who have
enriched our lives in but a mom-
ent. Others we remember with
regret. Others we do not even
remember—they made no im-
pression upon us. We fall into
one of these three categories.
Some are forgotten, some are
forgiven, but others are grate-
fully remembered. If we are
anointing others with the oil of
kindness and gladness, we are
gratefully remembered.
