Is this right or wrong?—REE ZENTFUL. Dear Ree: There is no law that would make a grandmother financially responsible for her son's children if anything should happen to him. If no one has told your mo- ther-in-law that her comments on this intimate subject are un- pleasant and unwanted — some- one should. Dear Ann Landers: I am a junior at college but my mother treats me as if I were 9 years old. She writes to me five times 'a week and telephones every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. She comes to visit me once a month. Mom spends more money on me than she should. Dad makes a nice living but we are far from wealthy. She buys me clothes when she should be buy- ing clothes for dad or herself, The strange thing is that mom's own mother lives a half miles from us and she is very lonely. Mom ought to be spend- ing some time with grandma but she rarely goes over there. How can I escape from my mother's clutches without hurt- ing her feelings? — BIG GIRL NOW. Dear Girl: Your mother's at- tachment to you is unhealthy and pathetic. You sound more mature than she is so the bur- den of shaping a sensible rela- tionship relationship is on you. Writing letters is a useful outlet and it does not compro- mise you in any way, so say nothing about mom's five a week. 'Suggest that she cut her calls, however, to two a week. Tell her not to buy anything for you unless you ask. Send back everything else. Insist that she reduce her visits to one every other month. Don't worry about hurting mother's feelings. When you in- sist on a more mature relation- ship, it will be better for her as well as for you. Dear Ann Landers: My boy friend is a wonderful person but he is always telling me how he likes me to wear my hair and what kind of clothes to buy, It seems he must pass judgment on everything. I don't tell him what to do with his hair or what kind of clothes to buy and I resent his telling me. Am I right or wrong? —SUGAR LUMP. Dear Lump: Consider yourself lucky to have a guy who is in- terested, Some girls could ap- pear for a date with their hair on fire and the fellow wouldn't even notice. If you're wise you'll appreciate his interest and try to please him. * "The Bride's Guide," Ann Landers' booklet. answers some of the most frequently asked questions about weddings.

In this centennial year we think of the sacrifice and the courage of our forefathers but we must also look ahead. We have the command to go and preach the gospel and also his promise "Lo I am with you al- ways". Each of us can fine some- thing to do in witnessing for Christ, whether at home, of- fice or abroad. We must have courage and be prepared to sac- rifice just as our forefathers did, but let us volunteer our services willingly as witnesses for Him, Miss Ballagh told her audience.
