Dear Ann Landers: My mo- ther-in-law is a lovely person, and I have always gotten along well with her, About three years ago she lost her husband. Since then she has spent more and more time in our home, although she lives next door. Now she refuses to be alone after dark. She insists on occupying the other twin bed in our teen-age daughter's room, which is creating a real prob- lem. Our daughter wants her privacy and who can blame her? My husband has asked me to he patient but I am at the end of my rope. My mother-in-law is in her early 60s and I can't Dear. Ann Landers: I am the most inept, untalented, incom- petent person alive, I can't do one single thing well, IV no kid, I'm a middle-aged woman who has kept house for over 25 years, I'm a lousy cook. If I try to sew something, I goof it up. I've taken a stab at gardening, but everything I touch dies. I'm a flop as a hostess. If anyone drops in unexpectedly I have nothing to serve—poor manage- ment. I'm no good on a committee because I procrastinate and for- get things. I can't sell tickets because I haven't the nerve to ask a friend to buy anything. As you can see by the looks of this letter, I can't even type. The only thing I've done right is raise good kids who are turning out to be fine men and women. Also, my husband seems to love me in spite of my stu- pudity and incompetence. Please, Ann Landers, tell me how to excel in something. — LEFT-FOOTED LADY. Dear Lady: All women should be so left-footed. If you've rais- ed good kids and your husband loves you, you've excelled where it counts. The other so.called achievements are meaningless by comparison. It's too bad your monstrous inferiority complex prevents you from realizing your true worth, which is considerable. * * * Dear Ann; Our son is 16, a high school sophomore, and a good student and gives us no trouble. The problem is he pre- fers to be with members of his own sex. My husband and I have talked to him about seeing a doctor but he refuses. He says he's happy with his life as it is and to please leave him alone. Are we failing him by not in- sisting that he accept profession- al help'? He is our only son' and his father and I are heartbrok- en. Please advise us.—IN NEED OF COUNSEL. Dear In Need: You seem to have decided your son is a homo. sexual, an assumption which may be incorrect. Some boys are "late bloomers" and take no interest in the opposite sex until they are out of their teens. If your son should want help in four years from now and asks for it, then help him, but try. ing to force help on someone who doesn't want It and may not need it, is a serious mistake. * * * Ann Landers PAPER GIVEN ON BELGRAVE CHURCHES History of East Wawanosh 1867-1967 shown at W, W.M.S. centennial meeting Receive clock at family gathering WHITECHURCH—On Satur- day evening Mrs. R.
