DEAR ANN 'LANDERS: A
ldngte frien.dand I are no
longer speaking.� ° Please tell me
who is at fault. I invited Mrs.
XYZ to be a weekend
houseguest. She arrived Friday
evening. I. made up her bed with
my best linen and I set gut my
finest towels. Saturday morning
I noticed she had used a
washcloth which she had
brought ' from home. It was of
good quality toweling but
certainly no better than mine. I
was very hurt that she felt 'it
necessary to bring her own
washcloth. The more I thought
about it the more it bothered
me. Finally I became so upset I
decided to talk to her about it.
% e word led to another —
adjectives such as uncouth and
ungenteel were bandied about.
Now we are no longer friends.
Who?was right? — HURT
DEAR HURT: I'rn printingyour letter.so my readers can see k
what some people consider a
problem. We have more than
500,000 men in Vietnam. It has -
been estimated that more than.
one-third of the students on our
campuses ' have ' experimented
with drugs, the crime rate in our
country has increased 11 percent
this past year. Homicide, suicide,
violence of every kind is on the
incline — and you are unglued ,
because your guest brought her
own washcloth! , Thanks for
writing, Lady.
DEAR ANN LANDERS: I am
a girl 17 who has been reading
your column for as long as I can
remember. I like the way you
use simple language instead of a
lot of high class words thatmost
people . can't understand. Will
you please do your readers a big
favor and '..compose ten
commandments as a guide for
living? I'm sure it would be
greatly appreciated by all. Thank
you. — FAITHFUL
FOLLOWER
DEAR FAITHFUL: I don't
,think I could improve on the
rules that Moses brought down
froin Mount Sinai. But thanks
. for the compliment.
DEAR • ANN,.,._. NDARS:

large enough for our own three
children plus my sister-in-law
and her three. The kids are in
sleeping bags and I'm on the sofa'

" This is the "tune of year
when the hunting stories are
flying .around. Each lime they
are retold, they becotne a big-
ger lie or a little funnier.
I don't mind the stories
when they're funny, or big, fat
lies. But there's nothing more
boring than listening to a hunt-
er telling you in deadly earnest
the entire story of how he
would have got his -bag of
ducks, or bagged his deer, if
the fates and the weather, and
anything else he can think of,
had not conspired against him.
It's as dull as listening to
someone relate what happened
on every hole of his golf game,
or every hand of bridge. a He
would have shot par or made
hisgrand slam if, if, if .. .
Getting back to hunters,
you'll never hear that earnest,
serious teller of tales admit-
ting that he couldn't hit the
side of a barn with a handful
of beans, from three feet. Or
that he's as quiet in the bush
as a tank on a hot tin roof. No.
there's nothing wrong with
him. It's the gods, or his gun
jammed, or sheer bad fuck..
Quite a few of the chaps on
our staff who are keen hunters
urge me to join them. 'This
means standing around in a
swamp and chest -high boots af-
ter walking an hour to , get
there, gazing sullenly for hours
at a sullen sky filled with
blackbirds and swallows and
non-existent ducks.
I've been able to fight off
the temptation for several
years now. I used to be a fair
shot. There's many a tree,
fence -post and tin can in the
country that can testify to that.
and P used to enjoy hunting. It
really was pleasant to get away
from the old battleaxe for a
few hours on a lovely, autumn
day.
• But,I've never been a fanat-
ic. Any tendency I had toward
BUSINESS
becoming one was cured forev-
er last time I went deer hunt-
ing..I got lost twice, was al-
most shot once (he hit the
hound instead of me), 'and was
dam' nearly drowned on the
way home from a remote is-
land, 1n'a blizzard, a high wind,
and a leaky boat.
Hunting is for the birds, lit-
erally. In proportion to num-
bers, • there are more hunters
killed, wounded, or disabled
for life from heart attacks and.
arthritis, than birds.
Another thing that puts me
off is the type of people who
Hunt. There is a large percent-
age of high-grade ' morons
among them.
I've just read in the Wiarton
Echo a :story about two "hunt-
ers" who shot and killed two
wild, white swans that had
made their home near a beach
resprt and were a delight. to
cottagers. What is there to. say
about "hunters" who shoot
swans?
•
A couple of years ago, two
chaps I know went out to the
local golf course and shot ev-
ery black squirrel in sight.
This takes a lot of nerve, stam-
ina, and bush -lore; walking
around a golf course, slaugh-
tering half -tame squirrels, with
three ounces of. meat each on
them.
Then there are the "hunt -
J'dgo
hunting
if.
. .
ers" who go Off for a ,.good
drunk in the bush. It gives
them a chance to play poker,
grow a beard, curse, belch and
do all ' sorts of manly 'things
like that. They could do the
same thing by checking into a
motel room for. a week" .But
they enjoy wearing big boots
and rough clothes and making
rude noises. .Then they come"
home and let their wives push
them around like puppets for
the other fifty-one weeks.
The finest hunters are those
who love nature. They respect
and admire and are curious
about their prey. They 'shoot
only when they know what
they're shooting at, try to kill
cleanly, and follow the wound-
ed deer or retrieve the wound-
ed bird at any cost. I've no
quarrel with them. But I think
most of 'them would be just as
happy with an unloaded,gun or
a 'camera.
There's no real, appeal in.
hunting for me any more,
though I love to get out in the
bush; preferably alone.
But if they' ever declare an
open season on school adminis-
trators, I'll be right back there,
gun on shoulder, keen of eye
and hard of jaw, tireless in the
chase, and -relentless in the
kill. I wouldn't even mind tak-
ing part in wiping out the en-
tire species, though I'm against
this sort of thing, normally.
