It all began when my husband complained that I never answered him when he spoke to me. I went to three specialists. They .all said my hearing was fine, One doctor said I probably had "post -menopausal nerves" and he prescribed some pills. Several weeks ago Norville became so annoyed with me that I went to a department store and bought.a hearing aid. I wore the aid only in Nor- ville's presence because I seem- ed to hear everyone else all right. Last night I had the aid on my ear but it was turned off. I looked at my husband and his lips were moving but I couldn't hear a word he was saying. The radio was on and I could hear the announcer clearly. Finally I said, "Norville, speak up." I read his lips and he replied, "I'm shouting, Henrietta." Well, Ann, he was NOT shouting. In fact, he wasn't snaking a sound, In a flash it all came clear, He had been playing this trick on me just to get me upset. Of course I'm too ashamed to tell anyone but I just had to get it off my chest. Thank you for listening, Ann Landers. I feel better already. — MORTI- FIED WIFE, Dear Wife: Tell Norville he's my personal candidate for "The Skunk Award of 1965." 0--0--0 Dear Ann Landers: Last week -end I took my sons (aged 10 and 12) to the hardware store. The neighbor boy (he's 13) asked if he could ride along. S noticed the boys handling some combination locks which were out on the counter but I didn't pay much attention. Last night I saw my younger son playing with one of the locks. I askew him where he got it. He answered, "Jimmie (the neighticir boy) took some locks and gave one to Bob and one to me." I asked if Jimmie had paid for the locks and he replied, "No." I then asked if he knew that was stealing, He said, "Bob and I didn't steal them, Jimmie did." I called Bob in and announc- ed that I was taking them both to the hardware store so they could give the locks to the manager—or pay for them—the choice was theirs. I telephoned Jimmie's mother and asked if she'd like to bring her son along. She said, "No. It would damage him psycho- logically." She then gave me a lecture on "Traumas in child- ren" and added, "Apparently you are not up on the latest." May I hear from you?—BE- RIND THE TIMES? Dear B.T.T.: A child caught stealing is in for a far more serious trauma than if he is made to take the merchandise back to the store and pay for it. A mother who allows her son to keep stolen goods is not pro- tecting (rim. She is inviting a long list of undesirable charac- teristics. The decline of morals in today's society is due to the failure of parents to teach their children respect for truth, in- tegrity, decency, and other so- called "old-fashioned" virtues. 0--0--0 Dear Ann Landers: Usually your advice hits the nail on the head. In this case, I think my advice is better. I'm talking about that wife whose husband takes his lunches apart every morning to see If she included everything, then leaves the whole press for her to repack. If that happened to me I'd say: "Look, dad, after three weeks of tearing lunches apart you must have a fairly good idea of how they go together. So put the lunch back the way it was or you can go you-know- where."—GRACE FROM BAK- ERSFIELD. Dear Grace: I don't know if they serve lunch you-lmow- where, but if they do, rest as- sured it will be a hot lunch. 0--0--0 To solve some of the frustra- tions, disappointments and dis- illusionments of married life, send for ANN LANDERS' booklet, "What to Expect From Marriage," enclosing with your request 20c in coin and a long, self-addressed envelope. Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her in care of this newspaper enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envel- ope. SAVORY SANDWICHES SAUCY WITH CHEESE If you're preparing lunch for older children, or a quick sup- per for all the family, try Ham and Chicken Cheesewiches. They're full of flavor and easy to fix, using foods you usually have on hand. Make them with leftover ham, leftover chicken or turkey, or boned chicken that comes in a jar. The crowning glory of this tasty sandwich is its sauce, a creamy white sauce made with milk, seasoned with dry mus- tard and Worcestershire, and enhanced by diced ham and shredded Cheddar cheese. The flavors blend smoothly into a superb hot sandwich that really satisfies. Serve with a wedge of tomato on lettuce, and plenty of milk to drink.
