DEAR ANN LANDERS: I The three of them line up, all their medicines in front of their dinner plates to impress one another with haw sick they are.. It's like they are in a contest. The table looks like a bargain counter in a drug store. ° Last night I counted 12 bottles. of pills, two tubes of ointment, a jar of salve and two bottles of cough syrup. Then there's the ritual of taking the kiss the gas station attendant stuff. It's enough•to spoil a i person's appetite.

Do you ao kiss the exterminator when he tells you you have no termites? Do you kiss the opthalmologist when he tells you you don't need a new prescription? Do you have you. What game are they playing? What can I do about it? — HAPPY TO BE AN OBSERVER AND NOT A PLAYER DEAR HAPPY: The game is called, "Don't make any demands on me because I am also sick." - Invite your friends and don't worry.

I should have made it plain that my dentist is a long-time family friend.

SPOORS FROM UN- sEri REF R t G,FRRATORS AND cANET� S B During his span on earth, unless he is an ostrich, every man is al- ternately appalled and delighted with 'life. Perhaps that's one rea- son the idea of a paradise on earth will never 'truly appeal to the multitudes. It would be too bland. • In theory, alife without pain, hunger, disease, cold, war, would be embraced by all. In practice, we shun such an existence, even though it could be achieved if all of humanity wanted it badly enough. It would lack spice. And sugar. Probably that's why the great novels about a utopia are basic- ally satires on man. From More's "Utopia" to Golding's "Lord. of the Flies", outstanding writers have,portrayed utopia as a para- dise smeared by good old human nature, or bad old human nature, if -you will. At two different periods in my life, I lived in an ordered society. They were sort of mini - utopias. One was in prison camp. We had , complete socialism. Every- one got the same amount of food, drink and time in the la- trine. There was complete free- dom of speech. Everyone shared the duties and chores ofthe community. Another was in a sanatorium. Ve were treated alike, whether ex -private in the army or ex -offi- cer in the air force. Same food, same rules, same shots in the bum for all. And in both cases, we loathed it. All we wanted to do, in both institutions, was to get out, to get back to the sinful, sordid, disordered, cruel, kind, hurtful, blessed life of the human indi vidual in a crazy society. If you don't have moments in life that are appalling and' de- lightful, squalid and splendid, you can stop reading now. Close your eyes, fold your arms and lie down. You're dead, and' you might as well be comfortable. When I stop being appalled or delighted by life, I will do what so many kids do. I will start snif- fing nail -polish remover or taking speed. Perhaps that is why they do it. Well, what's to be appalled or By BM Su Iey delighted about ,these days? .Plenty The list is endless and you can make. up your own. 1 am appalled by the Viet Nam war, surely the most sense- less since the Hundred Years War. Nobody is winning, nobody is losing, nobody knows ,who will wear the crown if thestupid thing ever,ends. I am delighted that all my storm windows are on, eighty per cent of my leaves are raked, and that there is oil in the tank and food in the freezer. I am appalled at the successor to the,. War Measures Act, which is completely unnecessary unless there is a heck of a lot more I am delighted that my daughter still loves me so much that on the weekend she allowed me to furnish a new winter coat, new boots, a posh dinner and an -expensive show without once mentioning the Generation Gap- or saying, "Dad, there's no way you could understand." I am appalled at the prices charged for said dinner, and the • amount of food wasted, to go to the pigs. Why can't expensive restaurants give you a half - portion at half-price or a little more, instead of assuming that you are a hog? I was delighted, next morn- ing, with breakfast in bed, but appalled at the sixty cents for a glass of orange juice and thirty cents each for muffins. Plus tip. I am appalled at the manners of many young people, and -de- lighted with their courage and compassion, I am appalled by the°traffic in the city, and delighted when I can park illegally and not get caught. Life is a balance, Appalled. Delighted. Snell are the children of earth. May you longbe one of„ them, going on than the government admits, MY appallment reaches shock level when 1 think that a cop could enter my house, ask n me if 1'd changed -my socks in. the last week, and throw me in jail if 1 hadn't.
