Home is a lot more to me
than the pink and black
house in which I live. 1t is
contentment. a slowing down
of the stresses of making a
living. 1t is a deep, easy chair.
and the smell of a roast siz-
zling in its own juices.
More than anything else,
home is Gayle, dark-naired
and half a woman. bound
ing in. running out. playing
that insufferable rock and
roll. shielding her father
from the world of women on
the one hand, and telling
him, like a confidential old
crony. that he ought to get
married In the next.
IT is THE THUNDER Of
the surf tolling the deep bells
at night. 1t is a rack of un-
read magazines. a stack of
Frankie Carle records, a
typewriter. a green telephone.
a medicine chest where / can
find anything in the dark.
Home is a village a half
mile away dotted with famil-
lar faces. 1t is the rough jest
Of old friends. a pool table
in the back of Jim Sullivani
tavern. an exchange of greet
ings with Clarence Stevens,
the town clerk. 1t is 10
minutes of browsing in Fow-
ler's Hardware store, a lit
tie philosophy exchanged
with pharmacist Goldberg,
q whispered joke in Cy and
Arts store.
1t is the little river behind
the house, racing to the sea,
always making it, never max
ing it, always running. 1t
Is the hill of Highlands. with
its blind lighthouses; it is a
pebbly road behind Locust
Point where Arthur Brewer
lives.
Home is the buzz of bees.
the small of trampled sassa-
frass. honeysuckle after a
summer shower. 1t is clear
cool air and a rusty tramp
on the horizon rolling to Rio.
It's the boardwalk at Asbury
Park. a rug auction. a hot
dog. 1t is mass at Holy Cross,
the unSelf1sh affection of two
police dogs, the sound of
5000 leaves in a poplar tree
talking back to a breeze.
Home is my Ginny. 9.8
miles to the west in Lincroft.
No father will ever get more
love than that girl can give
in a glance. Home is her twin
daughters, Robin and Pam
ella, the two-toothed grins.

DEAR ABBY
Summer Camp Again? Why Not!
BY ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

DEAR ABBY: I am IL
years old and think / should
have something to say about
this matter. My parents are
forcing me to go TO summer
camp again this year.
I went last year and hated
1t. / didn't have one friend.
My parents tell me there
are plenty of kids my age
who would give anything to
go to summer camp. I told
them they could go in my
place.
They said If I thought I
was going to sit around all
summer and watch televiSion
I was sadly mistaken. What's
wrong with staying home and
watching television? / think
my parents are just trying to
get rid Of me. What can do?
CAMP HATER.
Change you attitude. You
are being offered a healthy,
constructive summer in a
wholesome out-of-dOOrs at
mosphere. Here Is an Oppor-
tunity to gain valuable ex-
perience In learning to get
along with others. Determine
to make friends and enjoy
camp-and you will. Your
parents know what they are
doing.
DEAR ABBY: If answered
In the paper, my problem
could help many other mar
ried men with the same trou-
BILE. My wife is a convention
hound. national, State. re-
gional or district. 1t doesn't
make any difference. She
joins organizations for the
sole purpose Of going out of
town to conventions. She
spends money on clothes to
keep up with national officers,
and I have to stay home and
make the money for her to
spend. I eat out alone and

says she will IL she must
just to please me. But don't
want to have children on
such a basis.
I'm crazy about children
and have the greatest time
when we visit friends and
relatives who have them, but
Carol can't wait to get away.
Carol MI try to like chill
dren-honestly l do. But the
real truth is that / don't find
anything cute in them. They
are smelly and messy and
constantly coming down with
some awful trouble.
OF course I wouldn't de-
prive my husband of chill
dren, but ! can't see why we
have to hurry. / would like
to have another year or two
OF freedom.
I would do My best to
bring up my children right,
but I must admit that I'm
not very good with kids.
Whenever / get involved
with nieces and nephews or
friends kids something awful
happens and they wind up
bawling.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Luck has been with this
couples unborn children so
far. We'd hate to think of a
tiny creature being dutifully
tended by Carol. Poor child
Poor Edward! Poor Carol!
Carol won't like this, but
we must give it to her
straight. The reason she
doesn't like children is that
she is a child herself. The
natural "messinesS' of chill
dren holds no terror or hor-
ror for the adult who feels
completely in command Of
himself.
When he sees a child's
strong efforts to understand
and control his environment,
he is filled with wonder at
the miracle of life and
growth. He is moved to give
of his strength and under
standing to bring this new
life into fuller development.
Only an insecure person is
disturbed by helplessness.
The fact that Carol ap-
parently does something,
consciously or unconsciously,
to hurt or frighten the chill
dren with whom she comes in
contact suggests an infantile
resentment against them.
Carol evidently makes some
effort to be grown up and
accept her responsibilities,
but for some reason her
emotional development hasn't
kept pace with her years.
She'll have to find a way Of
growing out of the Peter Pan
stage and she may need pro-
fessional help to do it.
