DEAR ABBY
How Do You Handle the Bully?
By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

DEAR ABBY: Id like to
add my 2 cents to the debate
of whether parents should
teach their children to fight
back:
When our son was young,
he was picked on by every
bully in the neighborhood.
My husband forbid our boy
to raise his hands in violence
against another. Yes, even in
self-defense. We held back
the tears when the little fel-
low would come home bloody
and whipped. My husband
taught him that the differ
ence between man and ami
NAL was that man was en-
dowed by his Creator with
the intelligence to reason.
Animals relied on their brute
strength. Today our son is
an outstanding lawyer. In
his childhood he lost many
a fist fight, but since he has
achieved manhood he has lost
very few cases.

A Noisy Secret. This
By LEONARD LYONS

! NEW YORK.-When Senator
Jacob Javits, Republican, New
York, visited Moscow recently
his inspection tour included
a machine tool factory. The
Senator told the foreman OF
the plant that if anything Sec
ret was being manufactured
there, he would understand II
they detoured him. No, said
the foreman, they made nc
secret items - only machine
tools.
After the tour, just as Javits
was leaving, the foreman con-
fided: II have kept something
from you; we do make one
secret product here" Then he
gave Javits three xylophoneS
for his children.

REPORTER
A Texas Joke on Paul Revere

I love jokes. I listen and
sometimes fall down laugh
ing, but I can't remember
them. Sometimes, I write the
last line on a sheet of paper
and keep it in my wallet.
Some jokes are funny; some
are cruel; a few are witty:
some are dirty; some are
merely off-color.
In Texas, I was surprised
to learn, the people tell jokes
on themselves. One is about
the rich Texan stopping at
a toll bridge. He asked How
much?" The tender said:
"Ten cents" The Texan said:
Il don't have any change.
How much is the bridge?"
ANOTHE r ONE WAS
about a millionaire rancher
who died. In his will, he
said he wanted to be buried
in his air-conditioned gold
Cadillac with his ranch suit
on. The grave diggers had
just completed opening a
huge grave when they
paused to watch a crane
come along with the Cadillac
on sings.
The Texan was inside, sit
ting at the wheel with his
10-gallon hat on, his six
shooters cleaning, the air
conditioning on. Man" said
one of the grave diggers,
that's living!"
Bob Hopes jokes are topi-
cal and witty. He called Jack
Paar's show: "a minefield

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I
have been married four years
and have one son, aged 3.
When ] married I weighed
110 pounds. During and after
my pregnancy I have gained
excessively until I now weigh
1870.
My problem is not from
hunger but from nerves. I
have been to at least five
doctors and all have given
me medicines to depress my
appetite. Why isn't it pos
sible to prescribe protein cap
sules or pills to aid in a diet,
along with other medicine?
Mrs. NJ, Washington.
APPETITE depressors
haven't helped nor will any
other kinds of medicine like
special protein pills you sug-
gest.
You have put your finger
on the real cause when you
say your problem is nerves.
We have long gotten over
blaming obesity on opera
tions. pregnancy, glands. he
redity. Overeating and lack Of
normal exercise is the cause.
And overeating is often due
to tension and nervousness.
I think you will have to
subdue your obesity by flank
attack. Instead Of concen-
trating on dieting, give your
doctor the opportunity to
treat your anxieties and ten
sions. AS they lessen, you
will be able to cope with your
reducing diet.
