The Wingham Advance-Times, 1966-06-09, Page 20Ann Landers Page 4 — Wingham Advance-Times, Thursday, June 16, 1966 features from The World of Women Hothe and .The Housewife British Isles Seen on Slides 111111.11•11.1•1110 . Dear Ann Landers: My boy friend is in junior college. He has been considering quitting before he flunks out, If he quits, however, he mad be drafted, and the Army appeals to him even less than school. We want to get married pretty soon so I ,don't want to see him go into the service, either. Last night he came up with an idea, He thinks he will ohop off his index finger. I was horrified at first, but after we discussed it he made me see that it might not be such a bad idea. He says two years of his life is worth a finger any old day, and I agree that he has a point. What we want to know from you is this: Will the Army take a man with nine fingers? No lectures, please, just the an- swer. Thank you. — DON'T WANT TO GO, Dear Don't Want: The Army has been known to take men with nine fingers so don't count on an insane act of self- mutilation as a sure out. The Army does not take idiots, however. Perhaps your boy friend will be rejected on men- tal grounds. And I'm not kid- ding. Re rates plenty subnor- mal with me—and so do you. o--o--0 Dear Ann Landers: I'm writ- ing about the woman who complained because her hus- band called her "The old lady." Some people don't know when they have it good. My husband calls me "That Nut" and a few ether names which are unprintable, In fact he has called me everything under the sun, except a lady. I've heard people talk better to •their dogs, My neighbor's husband used to talk to her the same way. She said it was because he was ignorant and didn't know any better. My husband does know better. He doesn't talk to any- one else the way he talks to me. We've been married a long time and I'M sure he'll never change. I just want to know why he's like this.—PUZZLED ME. Dear You: Many people take out their feeling of anger and frustration on the handiest target — and the handiest tar- get usually is the wife or the Social Evening For Mrs. Norwood About 20 friends of Mrs. David Horwood gathered at the home of Mrs. Stewart Leedham last Thursday to spend a social evening with her before she leaves for the West.

Mr. Norwood will move there at the end of the 1967 school term. husband, The experts call this "displacement" and it's one of the most popular Games Peo- ple play. There is no justification for a mean mouth, but under- standing What's behind it can make the dignities easier to bear. 0--0--0 Dear Ann: Our 16-year-old daughter Mary went with Art for a year. Art is ,from the wrong side of the tracks and he shows it. When they had a fight and broke up we were relieved, Then Mary began to hear lies he was circulating about her and she was furious. She said she never wanted to see him again. For three months Mary dated others and seemed hap- py. Last week Art called her for a date. She accepted. I told her she couldn't go. She said she still likes him and she's going to see him even if she has to sneak out, What can we do with this headstrong b rat ?—MISSISSIFPI MOM. Dear Mom: Your last sen- tence persuades me that your relationship is so poor you can't do anything with her, You will probably ride the girl until she gets into trouble or runs off and marries the bum. I hope you will get some belated counselling and prove my predictions wrong. 0-0-0 Confidential to True or Lies? —Nobody knows for sure. And I would not accept your friend's "survey figures" as fact. The answers depend to a great extent on the wording, the skill of the interviewer, and the integrity of those Who are questioned. 0-0-0 Unsure of yourself and dates? What's right? What's wrong? Should you? Shouldn't you?
