My husband must spend en- dless hours counseling unhappy wives, sex -starved old maids, and aggressive presidents- of ladies' auxiliaries. In other words. he is with women day and night, and most of them are after him. My guesstimate is that many ( married clergymen have slipped'"at least once or twice, which is.. a far ,better average than the physician,. traveling salesman, plumber and TV repairman.

This afternoon my neighbor's eight-year-old daughter ran through a :3 x 6 . glass patio door. She ended up. with a small cut that required only three stitches. Two years ago one of my own children ran through a similar door and escaped without any injuries' whatever. That child could have been cut to pieces. It took .. me months` to • get '.over the 'shock. Now I am writing to ask you to •warn everyone who owns glass, doors to please decorate, ' them at once with attractive decals. Or have an artist paint ' some designs on it, anything so the glass will not be clear and treacherously invisible. It could save a relative or guest serio€is injury o death.—Va. Beach Dear Va.: Thanks for helping me protect the most wonderful people in the world. My readers. I don't recall ever having printed a letter on this subject. It was generous of you to write and share your good fortune. - Dear Ann: I'm tired of hearing teen-agers put down as if they were all a pack of irresponsible, strung -out freaks.
