THE CHRONICLE, Clinton. S. C., July 2, 1%9—7-B
I Dear Sally
BY SALLY SHAW
DEAR SALLY: I hear so much
talk and diversified opinions re
garding the strict as opposed to
the lenient method of rearing
children. I’d very much ap
preciate learning your views on
this subject. NEW PARENT.
DEAR NEW PARENT: Well, I
go along with the results of one
recent study about which I read.
This indicated that the parents
who grant their children more re
sponsibility, encourage them to
voice their opinions, listen
closely to these, tolerate differ
ent viewpoints. . .and then make
the final decision and enforce it,
these parents rear a much hap
pier and more successful fami
ly than those parents who go in
for the “permissiveness" idea.
DEAR SALLY: A blind date
was arranged for me last week
end by a good friend with a very
attractive young widow with a
young child. We had a very en
joyable evening together. . .but
then as I drove up to her home
at the end of the evening she
blandly informed me that I owed
a fee of $2.50 to her baby sit
ter! I was stunned, and I told her
so. I told her this was not my
responsibility, but she refused to
see it my way. So. . .1 finally
coughed up the $2.50 to her sit
ter. This really bugs me! Wasn’t
I right in my contention? JIM.
Dear JIM: You were right, I’ll
agree -- but on the other hand
your making such a big issue of
the $2.50 fee wasn’t exactly in
the best of taste either. . .made
you sound a bit on the stingy side!
DEAR SALLY: A certain col
lege boy I know is compelled to
keep a close guard over his ex
penses. He has asked me to go
steady with him, and suggested
that we can go “Dutch” on our
dates. I like him very much,
but still I’m not too keen on the
idea of sharing the expenses of
all our dates. What do you say
about this: DAKOTA.
DEAR DAKOTA: An occasional
Dutch date is all right under cer
tain circumstances, but not as a
steady arrangement. If this boy
must watch his pennies so close
ly, either he should cut out all
dating or make only the dates
he can afford to pay for him
self. Certainly you should not be
financing or helping to finance
ALL his good times.
DEAR SALLY: My husband was
a widower with a 19-year-old
daughter when I married him two
years ago. The girl has been
living with her late mother’s par
ents since our marriage and,
sadly enough, neither these
people nor the girl have accept
ed me as a friend. Now the girl
is going to be married, and they
have invited my husband to the
wedding and reception -- but no
invitation to me. Do you think,
just as a matter of principle,
that I should attend the wedding
anyway?
OSTRACIZED.
DEAR OSTRACIZED: I fail to
see just what principle you would
serve by crashing an affair to
which you haven’t been invited...
or what happiness and satis
faction you would gain. I think
you’d do much better to stay at
home. . .and forget their rude
ness.

NOTE TO LOSING-OUT: Ver
bal belittling of the competition
serves only to lower oneself in
the estimation of others. Best
to continue being the kind of girl
who attracted this boy in the
first place. Maybe this will in
time wake him up. If not, be happy
that you’re well rid of the kind
of fellow who is so easily lured
away.
How Can I?
By ANNE ASHLEY
Q. How can I concoct a good
“homemade. starch in an e-
mergency?
A. The water from boiled rice
or potatoes provides a nice
starch. To the water that re
mains after you have cooked a
half cup of rice in two quarts
of boiling water, add enough addi
tional boiling water (by pouring
it over the rice in a strainer)
to make one quart.
Q. How can I prevent bathroom
mirrors from steaming up?
A. By coating them lightly with
a little soap-type shaving cream,
rubbing off the excess with a dry
cloth or tissues.
Q. How can I remove candle-
wax drippings from a wood table-
top?
A. After scraping off as much of
the wax as possible with a wood
en paddle, work on the residue
by rubbing lightly with cheese
cloth moistened with carbon te
trachloride. Operate quickly, and
follow up at once with a dry-cloth
polishing.
Q. How can I remove the odor of
perspiration from a man’s woolen
shirt?
A. By adding a little vinegar
to the rinse water after laun
dering.
Q. How can I join lace so that
it will not be noticeable?
A. Try to patch the design over
on the same design, carefully
whipping one on the other. If
artfully done, the place where the
lace is joined will hardly be de
tectable. Do not make a French
seam when joining lace.
Q. How can I remove rain spots
from suede articles, such as
shoes, purses, or hats?
A. By rubbing gently with an
emery board, such as used for
manicuring. An entire section of
my household-hints book is de
voted to the care and cleaning
of various items of wear.
Q. How can I make the slic
ing of butter or margarine into
neat squares much easier?
A. Ford the paper in which the
butter comes over the blade of
your knife and cut with this. It
will make a smooth slice, and
the butter will not cling to your
knife.
Q. How can I remove rust
stains from an enameled sink
or bathtub?
A. One very good rust remover
is a mixture of 1/2 cup grape
fruit juice and one tablespoon of
salt.
Q. How can I make a good job
of washing out dress shields?
A. Use lukewarm water and a
teaspoon of baking soda for this.
Rub the soap on a small brush,
and brush both sides of the
shields. Then rinse in water of
the same temperature.
