1t was 11-year-old Rush

Mr.. Baughman released the

DEAR ABBY: I have a
mad crush on my science
teacher. I am 16 and he is
around 80 or 80. He is mar
ried so there is no hope for
me, but I can't stop feeling
the way I do about him.
At the beginning Of the
semester he was very nice to
me. but I did some very
stupid things, and I mean
stupid. Now he ignores me.
The most stupid thing I
did was trying to take his
picture in class. He sent me
out Of the room for that.
How can I get him to like
me?

OF course. you can't - and
herein, I submit, is the key
distinction between 1929 and
1859 which transcends all
others.
The difference lies in our
attitudes.
Since the 20S. we have built
into our economy great stabi-
lizers - unemployment insur-
ance, social security, minimum
wage laws, bank deposit insur-
ance, housing insurance and
others. These stabilizers have
been cushioning US against
downturns ever since.
If need be, we can improve and
expand these and we can create
new stabilizers within the
framework Of q free economy
We would have done. so by now
had the recessions Of post
World War II not been as mild
and short-lived as they have.
Since the '20s, we have built
UP q huge national budget and
o towering tax structure. Both
are now vital forces in our
economy. Now we know that 9
national budget deficit can be
o vital stimulant when bushes:
turns down because 1t pour.
billions into the spending
stream. Now we know a tax cut
can be an electric force because
it places spending cash directly
In the hands Of spenders.
Perhaps I am naive to believe
that our greatest safeguard
against another 1929 is that
we won't allow another 1929 tx
happen.
But I do believe this because
I believe fundamentally in "us,
in our dedication to our system
and our determination to pre-
serve it by molding it as neces.
sary to conquer our enemies
within as well as without.

From age so on you begin
looking with new interest at
those establishments around
the country that offer living
accommodations to retired
people.
Some are called retirement
homes or retirement hotels.
Others are called resorts. A
few are called estates or
ranches. They are designed
for people who are willing to
pay a price for a package of
living that is tied UP in a
convenient bundle.
Some of these establish
ments are undoubtedly good,
and would be good for you.
Some undoubtedly are not.
Here is the experience Of one
woman:
Three years ago after my
husband passed away" she
says, II thought that going
to such a place to live out the

meals a day on the dot.
Whether you did or did not
sleep at night, breakfast was
at 8 O'Clock. If you were not

and buy it.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY z. E. EDGAR

Successor: Viennese Com
poser Johann Strauss did not
wish his son Johann, later
known as the waltz king, to
become q musician, but the
boy insisted on following in
his famous fathers footsteps.
At the age of 10 youn
Johann made his DEBUT with
his own orchestra in a Vienna
cafe. His father, fearing
that the youth would dis
grace him with a shabby per-
Torrance, refused to attend.
Instead he sent two friends
with instructions to report
back to him.
Young Johann was wildly
acclaimed. When the friends
arrived at the fathers house
later in the evening they
hesitated to tell him of his
sons brilliant debut, at which
it was predicted that he
would soon eclipse his
fathers popularity.
The elder Strauss mis-
judged their hesitation.

Your son didn't disgrace

HE has brought honor to
your name. All Vienna is say

poser in the country"
For a moment Strauss
stared at them in disbelief.
Then he growled:
"To think that I would be
kicked off the throne by my
