walking, though not entirely steadily yet, has learned to
climb stairs and is fast probing the mysteries of all the
Cupboards and, drawers, in his foster home. -He can say a few
words and understands a lot and he enjoys games like hide •
and seek.and peekaboo.
Jamie' -is used tcr other children and loves their com-
pany. Indeed he loves any company, having recovered from
a shv period. Ifthere are•no people around,he plays happily

with the family dog. He is responsive to music, bouncing up
and down when Me -Wears it.- - —

DEAR ANN LANDERS: I
refer 'to the letter from
"George's Square Wife" r- the
wornanwiho was shocked when a
couple 'entertainedher and her
husband by.. bringing out their
hobby 'collection of 150
pornographic picture. George
apparently enjoyed the evening a
lot. When his wife suggested
theyleave he told her to button
her Hpbec4use he, was having a
ball. Your comment was, "It's
too bad :some people are so ,
Mentally- bankrupt they must
haul out dirty pictures because
they are too dumb to think of
anything to say,'
• You, Ann Landers, are too
sophisticated to make such a
stupid statement. You know
perfectly well some very bright
people enjoy pornography.
• Offhand I can think of a bank
president, a corporation attorney,
a college professor and •a
nationally known architect who
is also a deacon in his church.
The last gentleman has spent a
fortune, on his collection. He
carries ten or twelve of his most
"unusull" pictures inhis wallet.
Comment please - INSIDE
DOPE
' DEAR- DOPELIVell, bully for
them. Especially that last clown.
I hope he doesn't get hit by a -
bus. Those "unusual': pictures
could be mighty embarrassing.
You are correct when you say
some bright people enjoy dirty
pictures. Interest. inpornography
is in no way geared- to
intellectuality, but rather to
emotional development. A
mature person with healthy sex
attitudes would .be bored out of
his gourd .with the type of
evening described -by- Georges-.

DEAR HAP: My

DEAR ANN LANDERS: I'm
a 19 -year-old male who is sick
and tired of being mistaken for a
female on the telephpne. Even
after I say, "My riamb John,"
they answer, "Thank you
Ma'am." Can you come up with
a subtle sentence that will solve
my problem? all tire Mistr
