DEAR DORIS
DEAR DORIS----My grandpar-
ents are nearing their 90s.
Can't see too good any more,
but they would still like to be
useful in doing something
which would pass the time for
them.
1 have tried — with some of
my own ideas, but I am run-
ning out of them. I am sure
you have had this question come
your way before and can give
me some of your good ideas.
Flora
DEAR FLORA—If they can
get around at all, link them up
with the handiest seniors' chub.
They are sprouting all over
these days; your own church
may be thinking of starting one.
And there are useful activi-
ties to engage in at home. One
grandmother I know buys up
renmants; acquires old cotton
skirts at rummage sales for a
song, Then produces a pretty
apron or a pillow slip. She'll
buy up outworn baby dress and
pick out the smocking by hand.
Presto! It becomes a dish tow-
el; or two bibs for the current
toddler.
Can Gramp cook? I'll send
you a copy of "George's Cheese
Bites" — with variations — if
he'd like to make up the tasty
spread George's canapes are
made from. Then he could in-
vite his favorite pal or grand-
son to drop in for a snack.
