His remark made me uncomfortable. It implied that God was not with the three men ,Whe were killed. I was taught that God loves all' His children and His love is perfe,ct.

OF SHARON • DEAR' T. M.: I can only tell you how I feel. I respect the rights of those who do not believe in God but I do not share their view. God means something different 'to each of us. My God does not visit disaster on those who displease Him. Sorne of the finest people I know have had the worst tragedies. Why • certain individuals are singled out for life's cruelest blQ.ws I do not • know. But I DO know that faith in God can help heal sorrow and heartache, and I am sorry for. those. who do not have it.

I become so upset when he kisses her.hello, I nearly pass out. These past two months I've lbst weight. I cannot eat and J cannot sleep. I've considered having a talk with my boss but I can't -bring myself to do it. If you tell me to brothers and one sister were there, too.

That'S.what my wife said when the school holidays were' com- ing up. And she was right. Most of our friends were going somewhere: Skiing, Flor- ida, Jamaica, Mexico, South Carolina. Family obligations alid lack of cash' vetoed 'anything like that, but she had a wonderful plan. My brother-in-law and family were going to Florida. They live in the city. We'd go to the city, stay at their place, saving a big hotel bill; take in a few show, and step out to dinner a couple of times. be just like home for you" Says . "You ean take your exam ipers and nark them, you wo 't have a care in the,world, w'11 have some fun, and it will fe a nice. change for you." It was. Our daughter was home for the weekend, but was going back to the city to stay in the grubby hole her friends rent. She wanted to take back her cat and kitten., She was pre- vailed upon to wait until mid week — when we were' going down — for the animals" sake. .First mistake. Word got around -among her friends. Second mistake. To cut it short, we left for the city- wjth two cats, four teenagers, two big boxes of grub for Kim, enough clothes' to- go to Eu- rope, and ine- in a surly mood. Arrived at Kim's abode and carried up tie food, only to discover that three teen-y-bop- pers had beat her to it, and there wasn't room for her. Took her back with us to brother-in-law's 'house, a hand- some place indeed. Picked ut• - the key from a neighbor, as arranged. Turned key in lock. It bent. Played with lock. Stomped on key with heel to straighten it out. Couldn't. Fi- nally or swung open. Great relief. Fumbled for lights,. all lo- eated in wrong place. "Phew! This place stinks," said Kim. She wasrright. Dopey sister-in- law haa not turned refrigera. tor off properly. Freezer was unfrozen, water all over floor, meat putrid. Solid hotir of mopping up, scrubbing out frig. All hope of hamburger gone out ,in gar- bage, rotten. Eventually, I made a mess of crumbled buns in a large tin of , spaghetti sauce. It tasted like spaghetti 4,auce, which is pretty strong without spaghetti. • , House was cold. Turned heat well' up. Nothing happened. Stem heat. An hour later it wa 80.

Suggested: "Let's get the hell out of here and check in at a hotel." No takers. Too tired. Watched TV and went to had ' Next day same -thing. Hot water came on, for no reason, but wife -and -daughter bick- ered...most • You can't win 'em all reason. Had company. Sent out for food. Stayed up too late. Fell asleep. Awoke to great squabble and daughter leaving, with her cats, Persuaded her to settle down. Time a.m. and no buses running. She's not so. dumb, and agreed. Third day, worse. Freezing rain and snow outside, no food and raw nerves inside. My wife was rigpt'froin the start. It was just like home. And my exam papers were still in, the suit- case. Finally took bull by horns. and went out on town. Down town packed with solid mob, barely moving traffic:- Had beautiful dinner in crowded joint, after standing in line for half-hour. Hamburg for me, , coffee for the girls, who wer- en't hungry from feminine perversity. At last, saw a one- hour revue, at 11 p.m. Home at 12.30 .a.m. - Next day, took Kim down to her house, with cats; All foci we'd brought for her was eaten. . 'Back to house. Wife slaving to clean up. I said: "L'm going home, Period!" For once, no argument. Home through bhz- • zard. Stopped by cop. But, ah, that' home sweet home. No cats, no kid. • - • Ther&snothigJfkeaJitt1e ...change.
