SanyLandring
 Says
DUTCH TREATS

Dear Sally Landring:
 The other day I met a very
 attractive young man, who
 seemed to be interested in me.
 He was very nice and was
 considerate of me on our first
 date. He is attending a trade
 school under the CT Bill, so
 he does not have very much
 money.
 On our second date, he
 asked me if I would like to go to a certain restaurant, which
 is one of the better places to
 eat in our town. I told him
 that would enjoy it, so we
 went; but when the time came
 for the check to be paid, he
 made it clear that he expected
 to pay half of it. I didn't
 mind the money, since I am working; but he was the one
 who suggested going there.
 and I had no idea he would
 want me to pay.
 .. I have always had the idea
 that when a fellow took a girl
 out it was his responsibility to
 pay the bill. It seems to me
 that if he has no money to
 pay with, he should take me
 to some other place where he
 can foot the bill, if it is no
 more than a bus ride or a
 walk in the park.
 Am I Old-fashiOned to feel
 this way?
 WONDERING
 No, Wondering, you are not old 'ashioned. It is still good manners 'or a young man to invite a gir ,nly on dates for which he ca1 :oot the bill. No person who ha' .ea1 consideration for others vii propose a date and then surpris' he girl by expecting her to carr, part of the expenses, without ad vance notice.
 It is true, however, that in thes lays and times men are sometime unable to afford the heavy cost O entertainment in the more expen ,ive places, while their girl friend nay have both the money and de sire to go. Tn case of this sort t is all right for the girl to sug ,est that they go to one of thes. places "dutch'' - that it, with eacl paying his own way. Where thu girl wants to do it and neithe: oarty embarrasses the other, ther' s certainly no objection to be made
 However, this is no excuse flo: lis springine the bill on you un You had best be eau 5ious about dating this fell~w, sine you do not know what he will ex oect of you, and you may find 1 awkward to tell him when you can not afford the expense of som place he has chosen.
 By the way, are you sure Una you have been thoughtful of hin in selecting only those places O. which you know cal be fitted into his budget? It ma, be that some of the fault is your because YOU permitted him to tax you to places he could not afford.

SteeIworker Demands
Cover Pay, Pensions,
Insurance Benefits
by the Asseeioisd Press

PITTSBURGH, June 16.-The
CO. Steel Workers have
their fourth-round cards on the
table. They want general wage
increase, plus pensions and insur-
ance benets.
Specific dollar-and-cents figures
were not disclosed and United
States Steel Corp. officials gave
no indication as to their reaction
after a two-hour negotiation ses-
sion yesterday.
However, the corporation is on
record as having told the union
1t would not discuss pensions this
year.
A joint company union an
nouncement of the unions de-
mands was made by Vice Presi-
dent John A. Stephens Of big
Steel"
They were:
/. A general (wage) increase
for the entire membership.
2. Adequate pensions upon re-
tirement or disability for each
member of the union, to be paid
for entirely by the employer. Com
pulsory retirement shall not be
permitted.
8. Decent social insurance bene-
fits for members of the United
Steelworkers of America and their
families, to be paid for by the
employer. These shall include life,
accident, health, medical and hos
pital benefits.
The unions success In negotiat-
ing for $4,000 employees Of United

By Mai. Thomos N. Mol

I'd like to be able to answer
this question, but unfortunately
I Just don't have the records
handy. 1t comes from A. D. M.
oakland, Calf: IT can't remem-
Der whether I took out National
Service Life insurance when I
was in the Army. or how much
III did. Could I trouble you for
this information?"
I haven't a clue, but If you write
to your Veterans Administration
district Office (not regionaD and
give your full name and serial
number you might be able to get
that information.
From L. R., Deweyville. Tex:
IT am a World War I vet drawing
disability compensation. I want
to know If my wife would draw
it after I die, as we have only
been married two years"
Your wife wouldn't draw it If
you'd been married So years. How
ever, If she meets the income lin
itation and does not remarry. she
would be entitled to death pen
sion after you die, provided you
have been married at least 10
years before that unhappy event
takes place.
II you die as result Of your
J service-connected disability your
wife would probably be entitled
to death compensation (not pen
sion). but that still is not based
on the amount of compensation
you are drawing.
A wife never draws her hus-
bands compensation at his death.
From Mrs. r. P, Farrell, Pa:
will you please tell me how to
60 about getting my pension in
creased from its present $42 a
month";"
There is no way to go about 1t.
1t cannot be done unless Congress
raises the pension rates. It is
highly doubtful it will do it in
the foreseeable future.
From Mrs. j. T. S., New York, |
N. Y: while my husband was
in service we had a baby. Soon
after that servicemen's wives had
all maternity bills paid for by the
Government. We've always Won
dered whether we could collect
the amount we paid out when our
child was born"
Not now you can't. Sorry.
From Mrs. M. c., Bridgeport,
Conn: my brothers wife re-
married just after he was report
ed killed in action in Germany.
She was his beneficiary and is
drawing his National Service Life
Insurance.
"She won't get the dividend,
too. will she? It seems to us that
now that she has remarked she
shouldn't claim any more money.
1t should go to my brothers
parents. Don't you think?"
1t Is not a matter of thought
but OF law. The dividend will go
to your brothers wife, regardless
Of whether she is remarked.
From j. p. G., Richmond, Calf:
Il have problem regarding my
wtfe's transportation over here
from England. I spent $500 to
bring her to this country by plane
50 our child could be born here.
The Government said that If she
was to get Government transpor-
tation she would have to wait
until she had had the child plus
six months. and, of course, we
wanted 1t born in this country.
Have I got any chance to re-
cover any of that SCOOP"
No, not chance.

q M;nu.o viry's gaunt fig
ure at the steer
fIctlon ing wheel was sill
- houetted against
the white road, and Hiram smiled
to himself at the picture of his very
large wife in the very small car.
AS it pulled into the driveway he
quickly ducked out of sight. Better
to have her discover the note her
self. Reluctantly he went into the
house himself.
She wheeled upon him sharply,
her whole figure trembling with
rage and establishment.
"Hiram! Have you seen this?"
she demanded.
do you realize what this means?
Jennie-she's gone! Jennie's gone,
Hiram!" She waved the note wildly
in his face.
CHE stormed at the little man
~ furiously. "They have no right
to marry! He'll never be able to
support her; his own father said
he'd never make a farmer. All this
talk about his wanting to study en-
cheering and such nonsense - I
won't have my daughter to be his
wife!"
Nov, listen, Elviry," he said
boldly, you're just carrying on so
because Jennie's outwitted you!
This would never have happened if
you hadn't been so stubborn and
would have consented to their
marriage in the first place. If
there's anything you women can't
stand it's to have another woman
Guido you-even if she is your own
daughter!"
She read the note over again. "Jen-
ME says they're leaving for the city.
That must mean the 11:15 train. It's
just eleven now; if we hurry we can
catch her." Under her breath she
added to herself, $50 she thinks she
can outwit mel" and drawing her
lips into hard, thin line, she GRIM
ly barged out the door. Hiram fol-
lowed.
She opened the squeaky garage
doors with an effort, and they went
inside. He puffed away on his pipe
as she fumbled in her huge hand
bag.
Hiram, have you the car key?"
mo. Elviry, I amt seen it all
day."
She dashed out the door and he
followed with a flashlight. They
searched the driveway. They over
I turned flagstones and ran their
fingers over short blades of grass.
But there was no key. They went
into the house and turned every
thing upside down. But no key.

PROPOSE new
PARK AREA ROAD
New Road Would Alleviate
Traffic Problems Near
State Park

Establishment of a new state
highway leading from Sandusky
Bay Bridge to East Harbor State
Park in Ottawa county was pro-
posed this week by county engi-
neer Delos j. Nissen following 4
conference with county commits
sionerS.
Proposal was made to George
Lieber, division engineer, state
highway department with the sug-
gestion that it be included in the
departments program for 1850.
The proposed route would be
over county roads Nos. 1876 and
1876. The only state route at the
present time, north from the
bridge, is Rt. 357, approximately
one and one-half miles west of the
span. Since the state park lies
east of the bridge this route is not
considered practical.
County road No. 1875 is de-
scribed as concrete, in fair condi.
tion and 20 feet in width. County
road No. 1876 is high type BIZ
luminous road, 16 feet in width.
Proposal was made, county
commissioners and Mr.. Nissen
stated, in order to facilitate traf-
flee flow coming over the bridge
to the state park.

CHURCH CHRISTMAS SERVICES BEGIN TONIGHT
Santa's Deer Seen
In Local Streets

Santa Claus may have arriv-
ed here by airplane but three
of his reindeer, Cupid, Comet
and Dancer, are also spending
the holidays in Port Clinton-no
doubt sent here by Mrs. Santa
Claus to make certain that the
"Old Boy" tends to his knit
ting.
Returning from a Christmas
party for st. Johns choirs
early Saturday morning, Mr..
and Mrs. John Holder, 42S
Washington street, surprised
the three does as they cavorted
in the Washington street boule-
ward.
Temporarily blinded by lights
Of Holders car, the does seemed
rather tame--further evidence
that they are the female men,
bers of Santa's deer team.
Knowing that Mr.. and Mrs.
John Lorentzen were also ar
irving at their Adams street
home, and wanting witnesses
to the unusual sight, Mr.. and
Mrs. Holder drove to the Lor-
entzen home and returned to
Washington street with their
friends.
BY that time, the three ven
turesome does had disappeared.
The Holders and Lorentzens
drove through the alley be-
tween Fourth and Fifth
streets, and again found the
three little deer. When last
seen, Cupid, Comet and Dancer
were prancing towards Magru-
der Hospital and it's wooded
park.
"See Ohio First" could we'll
be the moral Of this tale.
Mr.. and Mrs. Holder had seen
deer only once before, when
they visited the Grand Canyon
two years ago. The couple has
made several trips to Michigan
but never saw deer in that
state. Now they agree that it
pays to wait.
If you are good little boys
and girls, perhaps Cupid, Comet
and Dancer may be in your
front yard Christmas Eve When
you return from church serv-
ices.
