DEAR ABBY

DEAR ABBY: | am Is and
love both my parents very
much, but I'm afraid they will
end up in divorce court if my
mother doesn't change her
ways. Dad is a lawyer,
around so, and he has a good
practice. But, Abby, if most
people knew how hard a
lawyer works on briefs, court
argum ents, witnesses,
testimony, etc., they would
break right down and cry.
Tonight Dad came home at
7:l5. Right away Nom said,
Have you eaten YETI" No
''hello," Just Have you
eaten YETI" He said, mo, l
just got out Of court" Then
Nom said, What do you
think I'm running here, a
restaurant" This sort of
thing goes on all the time. /
know Nom loves him, but
how can l get her to treat
him nicer? l was taught that
children should be seen and
not heard.
IN THE MIDDLE
/ don't believe that children
should be seen and not heard.
Wait for the Opportune
moment, and when your
mother is alone, has plenty of
time and is In a good mood,
tell her she should be more
patient and gentle with Dad.
Sometimes, from the mouths
Of babes. :.

"oh, ! couldn't go back there
It's haunted"
But we could be the haunts, .
said Jeremy. we could dress
up like ghosts and 60 down
there and scare Nog away"
Like Halloween" cried Miss
10. She ran into her room and
came back with a sheet over
her head, waving her arms and
crying, Nv 100000
WhOO0Ooo.
Jeremy and Sissy raced for
sheets and the three of them
tore out Of the house, the sheets
flying out behind them. It was
dark now. The roads were emp
ty. There was no one to see or
wonder at three little grosts
stealing through the town.
Dark and Scary
When they came to the Haunt
ed House they stood outside
| h gliding hands. Jeremy put
away the flashlight he had used
to guide them. There was not a
light in the house and the only
sound was their own scared
breathing.
| They pulled themselves up on
the porch and peeped through
the door. There was no sign Of
Nog.
'Nowl" whispered Jeremy.
The three ghosts burst into
the house, screeching and howl
ing and waving their sheeted
arms like three d m emit e d
haunts.
If any other haunt had been
there it surely would have been
frightened away. But apparent
Ily the house was empty. Jere-
my turned on his flashlight and
peered about, growing Drawer
all the while.
Not only was there no Nog.
There was no sign Of the cake
he had been making.
Then Sissy leaned over and
opened the oven door. Swoosh!
A towering white phantom burst
from the oven, went ''Wheee i.
:" and, spreading i'm m e n s e
arms, floated over the children.

Sissy. That's what the story

we do?"

cried, bursting into the house.
Its not a story! Nog is there!"
StOryteller Is Gone
But the house was dark and
the fire was out and the Story
teller was gone. They ran
through all the rooms Of the
house calling for him.
They looked in the closets and
under the beds and down the
road. The Storyteller was gone
and his suitcases filled with
books were gone. The only sign
that he'd ever been there at all
was the cushion on the floor

bemoaned that such a program
missed reaching the very stu
dents who need the information
most.
Able students, particularly
from minority groups, who
drop out of school before
meeting requirements for the
better Federal jobs, are
cheating themselves and the
country. High school students
must be made to realize that
a few specific courses taken
along with good general

them eligible for excellent

Once the educational goal is
reached, students will find
that, especially in United
States service, equal
employment opportunity is a
reality and not a myth.

held on college campuses

her father. He is very strict

Disciplining children (bOys

it Is lost 1t is rarely regained.
Unless you want even more

daughter, let her father ham

How Values Car Come Back
You will find that lots of your
worthless certificates t h a t
turn up in desk drawers or in
your attic represent old mining
companies. Maybe they never
were any good, or perhaps they
were issued by mines that peter
ed out. Some companies didn't
have the money to dissolve le-
gally, so perhaps they let some
rancher pay the taxes for the
right to use the land. And so the
company was forgotten after
stockholders were told it had
passed out"
But l can remember, for ex-
ample, some instances in the
1865 when uranium was found
on such lands. with an increase
from, say. S. an acre to $50, 1000
an acre resulting. Maybe an old
timer who recalls the company
gets himself a list of original
stockholders and writes to them
offering $40 share for their
certificates. Most families still
having the certificates are prob
ably glad to get $40 a share.
What they don't know is that
the shares may now be worth as
much as 81 900 because of the
new-found uranium. Who can
tell what new changes might
come about for such undissolved
companies?
l have often urged people who
move from one address to an
other to be sure to write any
company whose stock they hold
and let them know of the change
II you have some worthless"
stock, spend Scents on a postage
stamp and take the time to
write a letter giving your new
