DEAR ANN LANDERS:
=H rd and -"I- have- been going-"
together for a year. I wouldn't
call him cheap but he is, shall we
say,"careful" with money.
Yesterday while out for a
stroll, we passed the drug stere
and I remembered_1- was out of
cigarettes. We went in, I picked
up a pack and Howard just stood
there in . front of the cash
register. I began' to fumble
around -in --my my -
embarrassment.. _Finally the clerk
- glared at Howard and said,
"That will be 49c please..."
Howard glared back and replied,
"I didn't buy anything." µ
^I' fished' out my wallet and
paid for the cigarettes myself. I
was so mad .1 couldn't sec
straight: When we got to my
place -I-.- slamn--'the _door-. in
Howard's face. This morning he
called but refused to apologize.
He insisted that if it had been
candy or gum, he would have
paid, but he hates cigarettes.
(We've argued about • my_
smoking a lot .but I feel it's my
business. ). Who's •in •the wrong? -

DEAR HUMIL: Since it's
"your business" you should
4" finance it. I see'no reason why. a
man who 'hates cigarettes should •

DEAR ANN - LAN'DERS: •
Please -tell "Dejected Wife" that
1, too, wish her husband would
go back to her, but for another
reason. I'm a working girl who
happens to live across the court
from her husband's girlfriend. I
haven't had a good night's sleep
for three months on account of
'those two nuts.
My bedroom window looks
�tbtti-.into hiving room
.and they never pull down the
shades or draw the draperies.
Sometimes they dance to radio
music' until _300 A.M. It's -like 'a
free show.
�
Every night I promise myself
I won't look:rbecause..onceicart
.1 can't teannyself-aWay. It's like
I'm hooked. One peek and I'm
glued_ to_ the. window_ for, three
hours. Those kooks have cut
into my reading, my laundry -
everything.. . 1 hope he gets tired
of this. broad soon and finds
another girl or goes back to his
Wife: 'I don't care -which. Please
print this, Ann. I'm sure they'll
recognise themselves. --••

Dear Ann Landers: This is for ,.
-the mother who wanted to know
if .it was' iroper for the groom to
sing at lir own wedding. She
said her daughter was getting
married to a young man Who
had a lovely voice and he had
expressed a desire to sing a love
• song to' his bride as she walked
- down the aisle. You;'said it was
O.K. so long as he selected. an
"appropriate" number. You
then went on to say "What Kind
' Of Fool Am -F..' ..would not be a
good choice.
1 wish you'd pay more
attention to the advice and not
try to be so cute. 1 attended a
wedding „ recently where the --
groom sang to his bride, or
should I say he TRIED to sing,
and it was a•.disaster, The poor
• fellow was so nervous he
couldn't•~even handle the vows,
let alone resider a musical
selection,. His voice cracked and
shook. He forgot, the lyrics. It
was awful. I thought the bride's
mother would have . a heart
attack. So please, Ann Landers,
change your advice before,
another` lovely wedding
ceremony is "spoiled. If people
want music, tell them. to ,hire a
professional. -- Springfield

DEAR,._,. -ANN, LANDERS:
Does a husband belong in the `
delivery room when his wife is
having a baby? I wish you would
settle this question 'for us. My
husband does not want to Oe at
my side but I want him there. I
believe every man should witness4
'what a woman .goes through to
have a baby.,
My doctor says •-he would --'--
rather not have husbands around
b t if both the man and wife
husbands sometimes faint or
become i11 and the nurses aretoo
busy to take care of them.
My beloved .,is .a 230 -pound
ex -tackle for the Philadelphia
Eagtose, He is not the type who ,
would faint. If I talk long
enough I'll win the battle..
Should I insist on having,emy
way? -, PUTTING -ON A IVIG
FRONT
DEAR PUT: No. '1`'4ose
230 -pound ..tackles faint faster
than anybody. Ask any doctor.
If your husband doesn't want
to accompany you . to tthe
delivery ' room, don't make a
federal case out of it. He'd be ,a. 4
nuisance. He could be_ in the
labor room, however -- at least at•
the beginning. He won't Abe° in
anyone's way and his presence
will give you an opportunity to
achieve your goal.

• Although',summer is__,.over,,
some garden jobs remain tobe
done,- say hor-tieul-tu-rists with
the Ontario Departinent , of
Agriculture and Food. A bit of
work now will provide a good
garden next year. •
When red raspberries have
finished bearing, cut off old
fruiting canes at ground ,level. If
disease is evident, burn, the
trimmings.
Evergreens will' lose some
needle's now. They can be used
as a Inureh for blueberries and
rhododendrons -which prefer an
acidic soil.
Flowering plants will benefit
from the removal - of dead
flowers. Divide and transplant
peonies no, r .r Haruesi r tuberous
begonias and dig up dahiias after
the first killing frost- .
Bring potted.; houseplants
back indoors. Check them for
disease or insect pests, first.
Repot the plants and use them
to decorate the house or else
store in a cool basement until
spring. Light infrequent watering
is their only requirement.
Day lilies and tulips, are best
planted in September and
October. Buy tulipbulbs of
uniform size and plant them in a
well -drained soil tow to ensure
developed and established ,roots
before winter. Cover tulip beds.

there's a certain gaiety and
