DEAR ABBY: I have a
mother who thinks more of
her furniture than she does
her grandchildren. After all,
Abby, they are only babies
and do not know the value
Of things, so you can't blame
them for putting their feet
on the furniture or wanting
to play with her milk glass
bric-a-brac. Don't you think
she should save me the
trouble of having to watch
them every minute they are
at her home and just put
up all her good things until
they are old enough to under
stand?.
AGGRAVATED.
Children should be taught
at home to keep their feet off
the furniture and their hands
off the bric-a-brac. Since
you obviously didn't, you'll
have to discipline them in
your mothers home.
DEAR ABBY: I sent you
three Of my problems and you
didn't answer any Of them.
Why do you claim you an
swer every letter when you
don't?
OFF OF YOU.
II isn't possible to answer
every letter IN MY COLUMN.

DEAR ABBY

DEAR ABBY: My husband

an evening at the home of
a couple who recently moved
to our neighborhood. 1t

evening to get better ac-
} quainted. When we arrived,
this woman Immediately
flopped down into one Of
those contour chairs with
her feet higher than her head.
She stayed that way through
out our entire visit, saying
how relaxed" she was. I
didn't enjoy trying to carry
on a conversation with a
woman who was practically
standing on her head all
evening. It annoyed me so
much I told my husband I
didn't care to see these people
again. He says 1 am too
critical. In your opinion, do
you think this woman was
a good hostess?
CRITICAL.
Unless your hostess was
relaxing" under doctors or
ders, she should have enter

Improve Your
Haying "LUek"

If you made it safely through the
first cutting of hay, maybe you
were lucky You can make your
own luck" by adding good judg-
ment and common sense to your
machinery know-how this haying
season.
According to Vim. H. Henderson,
county agent, hay harvesting on a
national basis claims more lives
than the harvest of any other crop.
By following these simple rules,
you can make your haying season
a lot safer:
Always shut off the power be-
fore cleaning, oiling or adjusting
any power-driven machine. Keep
power take-off and other safety
shields in place-they were put
there to protect you.
Don't permit extra passengers on
tractors or loaded hay wagons.
Falls from wagons, mows, silos and
stacks are all too frequent
Watch your tractor speed on the
road and in raking and moving
where higher speeds are used.
Packing silage with tractors in
trench silos is highly hazardous.
Use only experienced operators
who know the danger.
Pitchforks and hay forks can be
dangerous. Handle them with care.
Hay safely Don't add to the ac-
cident toll this year.

Type Of Hand Not
Related To Either
Talent Or Strength

The size of a persons hand is
not significantly related to lit s
strength or ability, according to an
article in the current Today s
Health, published by the American
Medical Association.
"Amon musicians, physicians,
artists, athletes, and all others who
depend on. their hands to earn a
living there is an infinite variety
of stubby fingers, slender fingers,
large hands, and a small hands, I"
the article said.

mined brain, human fingers can be
trained to perform amazing feats,
it said A master pianist can strike
120 notes per second, it said, and
skilled surgeon can tie stands of
silk thread into tight knots inside
the human heart with two fingers
The hands are the busiest, most
complex instruments of the entire
body, and the thumb is the busiest
and most important of it's digits,
according to the article entitled
What Science Knows About Your
Hands"
Because of the thumbs unique
ability to cross over and link up
with any one of the other fingers
for a pinch, grab, or squeeze, we
can get along with one thumb and
one other finger" it said. I'm a

first to save the thumb"
''In the average person, the mid

three are the fastest of the five.
The little finger is the slowest,
but finger four is considered b y
teachers of music and typewriting
to be the least responsive to train

weakness"
Because of it's intricate arrange
ment of nerves and muscles, t h e
hand is highly vulnerable to any
injury, the article said Even a
sprained finger should be properly
splinted for two to three weeks or
painful swelling may continue for
months, it said.

cause such terrible cuts that small

Precious Memories
Bible Conference
To Close Sunday

The Precious Memories B Bfbl e
Conference will come to a close
this Sunday night. This has been
the second annual Bible Conferen-
ce, held each year in the Evangeli-
cal Methodist Church of Lincoln,
Delaware. Last week, tfpe B b e
Conference featured Hal Webb and
his Evangelistic Team and t h r
ministry in song and music was a
real blessing to all who attended.
We are looking forward to them
being with us again in our Revival
Meetings for two weeks January 20
to February 8, 1868.
There will be services each night
this week with Rev. Berl Sessions
of Fairmont, w. Va. He is the di-
rector of The Voice of the Hills
Foundation.

The Book of Jonah is the Bible
Conference subject this week. JON
ah is one of the neglected books
of the Bible, yet one of the rich
est Truths for today. Modern teach
ers and preachers today ridicule
the account of the great fish that
God prepared to swallow Jonah. 1t
cannot be denied without harmful
effect to the Bible. Jonathan Ed
wards, years ago, preached on the
subject, "Man in Hands of an
Angry God. If h0were here today,
his subject would be changed to
God in the Hands of Angry Men,.
Men will find at the end of their
road, they have not broken Gods
Word, it has broken them.

PLOW HORSES in PASTURE

CANTON, Ohio (AP) = 1t hasn't
come yet, but the day is arriving
when a farmer may have to take
his children to the zoo to see what
a horse looks like.
Even in this Wayne-Stark Coun-
ty area which encompasses some
1000 Amish families who refuse to
use motorized equipment, it is "a
rarity when a man uses a horse
to pull a plow.
Some Amish farmers now hire
men to till their fields with trac-
TORS. Owning the tractor is ir-
religious, not having it used.
The use of the tractor is not
always for speed. The Amish farm
ers are finding it more difficult
and more expensive to find good
work horses. The horse farms are
disappearing. Those that remain
raise track horses, saddle and
show animals.
The Amish farmer who wants TO
use horses noq must raise his own,
or pay up to $500 for good pair.

organized department last year.
Maurice w. Carrow of Camden

Terry, Richard S. Rodney and

When the House and Senate last
recessed on May 10, they had con-
cluded the 25th of the 80 legisla-
tive days allowed in the second

This means the legislature has

NEW YORK - An editorial in
the Jesuit magazine America,
warning that support of the SUI
preme Court School-prayer decision
by "our Jewish friends" has pro-
duced heightened anti-Semltic
feeling" has drawn sharp retortS
from Jewish organizations as well
as protests from Catholic n d
Protestant SpokeSmen.
The editorial, in the Sept. 1 is

lean Jewish community whether
what is gained through the courts
by such victories is worth n e
breakdown of community relations
which will inevitably follow?"

dent Joachim PrinZ declared:

ligious liberty in the United States
when an effort to protect the guar

should evoke thinly veiled threats
of anti-Semitism from so respect
able a journal of opinion as Amer

torn by internal strife take their
problems to a non-judicial body
whose decisions are binding up
on the disputants. Made up mostly
of rabbis, judges, business men
and lawyers, the Jewish Concilia-
ton Board of America has been
settling cases for 43 years in ac-
cordance with Jewish law and Gus
toms, common sense and what is
called "a Jewish heart" The de-
cisions are usually made at the
conclusion of impassioned presen-
tations of the issues by the indi-
viduals concerned, who are ques-
toned by the board members. The
elapsed time from the statement of
the grievance to the rendering Of
the decision is usually one hour,
according to an article in the New
York Times.
The boards work has been praiS-
ed by such legalists as Supreme
Court Justice William o. Douglas
and such humaniStS as the e
Ernie Pyle. An arbitration agree
ment that must be signed by par
ties to a dispute prior to the hear
ing makes the boards decision en-
forceable in the civil courts.

Med Cen+er's
8-Year Work
Recoun+ed

DENVER - When the Ameri-
can Medical Center at Denver de-
cided in 1854 to add free treatment
of advanced cancer patients to its
program, the director of nurses
had great misgivings.
Bertha Mosconi, the director,
couldn't conceive of recruiting,
training and maintaining a staff
which would do nothing but look
after dying persons.
NO NURSE, she thought, would
want to spend all her days working
with patients who would never be
cured. Since then, however, things
have changed. Mrs. MoSconi had
no trouble recruiting her staff. And
motivating the nurses to accept
their jobs has been easy, she said.
The center's cancer treatment
program is established and sue
cessful. Recounting the nursing ex-
periences over the eight-year per-
iod, Mrs. Mosconi pointed out that
she and her staff have been credit
ed with helping extend the useful
lives of patients, as well as help
ing the hospitals research staff
prove the value of new treatment
methods.
THE COST of patient care is
underwritten entirely by voluntary
contributions from throughout the
country. The patients are repre-
sentative of every section, race
and religion, many of them learn
ing the lesson of Rosh Hashonah,
as we'll as Of the Jewish tradition
of true charity at this hospital.
The cancer treatment program
is revolutionary because it in
wolves total patient care and en-
phasizes the psychological aspect
of cancer nursing, which hospitals,
nursing homes and private homes
do not provide, Mrs. Mosconi said.
The 35-member staff Gncluding
II registered nurses) approaches
the patient positively" Mrs. Mos
conf said. For instance, he may
have cancer in only one part of his
body. So we emphasize that there
are other parts he can use and
enjoy eyes, ears, hands"
