BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: I’m a girl ofl6 think a lot of my parents, but am now having a little disagree ment with them. They don’t like my friends (boys and girls), claiming their manners are ter rible. I’ll admit these kids are rather short-spoken and inclined to limit their answers to my par ents’ questions or greetings to grunts, and sometimes even no answers at all. And recently my parents were especially incensed because not one of the U guests I had at a party in our home said goodbye to them at the end of the evening or thanked them for the refreshments. I keep telling my parents that my friends are es sentially good Idds, and the faults they keep finding in them aren’t all that important. What do you say about this? TINA. DEAR TINA: Your friends may, as you say, be good kids, but they’re making it extremely dif ficult for others to know it. Man ners, good common courtesy, ARE important. Charm, the a- bility to attract others, cannot exist without good manners. DEAR SALLY: My wife insists that a husband should help his wife with some of the household chores when he arrives home from work . . . dishwashing, vacumning, dusting, laundry, and the like. I say no, that these things are entirely a wife’s re sponsibility. She has agreed to consider what you have to say on the subject. MAC. DEAR MAC: Depends. If the wife is also employed during the day, the housework should be a co-operative deal. If she isn’t then I agree with you . . , the housework is her responsibility. DEAR SALLY: I am the pri vate secretary of the president of a large company, but I seem to be working more for his wife than for him. She is very so cially active, a member of nu merous committees, and I am constantly being delegated to type dozens of letters for her. This, I think, is grossly unfair --my being constantly called upon to do another woman’s work for her. Don’t you agree? SLAVE. DEAR SLAVE: No. You are this man’s private secretary, being paid a salary to perform the work he assigns to you, and if part of that work included some of his wife’s social activities, ac cept it as part of your job and stop griping about it DEAR SALLY: When I became engaged a couple of months ago, I asked my best friend to be my matron of honor at my wed ding which is set for about four months from now. But today she has confided to me that she is pregnant, and now I am afraid that her general appearance by the time the date of my wedding arrives will ruin the effect of my wedding. Do you think I should have a little heart-to-heart talk with her about this and perhaps suggest that she give up the role of matron of honor? ALLIE. DEAR ALLIE: Not if you want to keep her as your best friend! A bride usually asks a “best friend" for this very important role, and the fact that this “best friend* is pregnant should not e- liminate her ... and certainly could NOT spoil your wedding. Just help her to select a loose- fitting gown and give her all the consideration due to a “best friend." Watts Assigned Army Private First Class George E. Watts, 20, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse F. Watts, 207 Horne St., Clinton was assigned as a mortar man with the A- merical Division’s 198th Light In fantry Brigade near Chu Lai, Vietnam, Jan. 17. County Solons Vote Against Pari-Mutuel COLUMBIA - The House <A Representatives last week voted against establishing a commit tee to study pari-mutuel betting, with the Laurens County delega tion voting with the majority. The Senate-passed resolution was defeated Feb. 19 by a 63 to 50 vote but was placed on the calendar again after Rep. Thomas Hartnett, D-Charleston, introduced a motion to recon sider. The Laurens County delegation approved the House action in de feating the measure. “I do not feel that pari-mutuel betting would be in the best in terests of Laurens County, or of our state,* Rep. David S. Tay lor said. He and Rep. Paul Cul bertson both voted against the proposed study committee. The delegation voted con sistently against the measure. Taylor said, “I am most happy that we were able to defeat this resolution by a vote of 58 to 51.’ “I don’t believe South Caro lina should give dignity to betting by creating a study committee and wasting the taxpayers money,* he concluded. Moore Named To Dean's List At The Citadel Cadet John Isham Moore Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. I Moore Sr., 501 Blalock Dr., Joanna a- chieved academic distinction by winning a place on The Citadel’s Dean’s List for the semester end ing Jan. 24, 1969.
