FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

COMPLAINT: Albert A.
Nicholson, Americas first
Nobel Prize physicist, was
more than a little absent
minded, recalls John H. Will
son, jr., in Albert A. Mi
chelSon.
"One day, after lunching
at his club, he went to the
cloakroom for his overcoat.
Deep in thought, as usual,
he slipped into one Of the
coats and stepped into the
street. A man of slight
build, he did not notice that
the coat belonged to a club
member who was well over
6 feet tall.
"A few moments later, Mi
chelson re-entered the club,
Stomped UP to the office be-
side the cloakroom, and
brought a pair of leather
glove resounding down on
the counter.
What goes on here?' he
demanded. Who left his
gloves in my overcoat?'
Then, with the sleeves of
the coat hanging down over
his hands and the bottom
Of the coat almost to his
ankles, he walked out again"

DEAR ABBY
Give Them a Break, Please!
By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN,

. DEAR ABBY: Why do some
people give the newsboy the
run-around when he tries to
collect for the paper?
They say. Come back to-
morrow, Sonny, I don't have
any change" And when he
comes back they see who it is,
and don't answer the door.
And some folks keep the poor
kid standing outside with his
mittens off while they go for
the money and you would
think they had to go to Fort
Knox to get it. But just let
the paper boy deliver the
paper late and they are on
the phone in two minutes
talking to the complaint de-
partment. Do our kids a
favor, Abby, and mention this
in your column.
FOR THE BOYS.
Most folks don't realize
that every carrier boy is in
business for himself. It's an
i, imposition to keep him COM
ing back to collect. Our young
men who have the initiative
to take q paper route deserve
consideration. Won't you
please have the money ready

FAMILY COUNCIL
Son Wants
Everything
His Way
BY MRS. ALMA DENNY
THE PROBLEM

by MhS. ALMA DENNY
THE PROBLEM
Carl Pits none Of their
business where I go and when
I'll be back.
Mrs. E.P.-His father and
I can't relax until we know
where our children are.
THE DETAILS
Carl PIN over 81 and,
although I'm still living at
home with may parents. I'd
like to have some Of the pri-
vacy, respect and independ-
epce I'd have If I were Nv-
ing alone. But If my parents
continue insisting that I re
port to headquarters" at every
move, I'll have to leave.
What makes it hard for
me is my sisters easy COM
pliance with their requests
to know-all, see-all. She's 81
but maybe she likes being
babied.
My parents cross-examin-
ations are annoying and hu-
initiating. I'd like to remain
under their roof for a few
years yet, not only to help
out financially, but because
I'm genuinely fond of them.
But they must stop treating
me like q little boy.
II I were in the Army they
wouldn't worry about what
time I get to bed each night,
would they?
Mrs. E.P.-All we ask Carl
is where he's going, or where
he can be reached If we need
him. We tell him the same
whenever we leave the house.
But now when I ask, How
long will you be? he flares up
and says Until I get back"
I'm not shopping or pry-
ing. It's just that while
we're all under the same roof,
we can't help counting noses
and keeping track Of who's
in, who's out, and who's
where. We hear a key in the
door at two or three o'clock
in the morning, we like to
make sure it's Elinor or Carl
and not a "third-story man."
Suppose I really needed
Carl for an emergency? I'd
like some idea of how to
reach him. He's mistaken
about the Army. I wouldn't
worry about his whereabouts
because I could always ask
his sergeant!
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Carl is confusing affec-
tionate interest with parental
prying. For an opposite view
point, he might canvass the
park benches, depot waiting
rooms, and furnished flats.
Here he'd find the lonely
and the lost who'd give q
year Of their life If only
somebody cared. If only
somebody had any interest in
whether they were dead or
alive!
Carl wants to hang around,
on his own terms. He wants
to enjoy and q absorb the
warmth Of family, and be a
completely "cold potato" in
return. That's his selfish
definition Of independence"
and it doesn't appear in any
dictionary. It's found more
often in the annals Of fam
lily misery.
He'd better be consistent.
Either 100 per cent indepen-
dent (and there's really no
such thing or admittedly q
member Of q family house.
hold where absent parties
are missed" and home
comings are hailed!
How about settling for be-
ing 80 per cent independent
and 10 per cent human?
