Dear Sally BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: We are new par ents who W'liild appreciate very much your c-’inments on the strict, as opposed to the lenient, method of rearing children, MOM ‘N’ POP. DEAR MOM N POP; Well, 1 go along with the results f one recent study about which I read. This indicated that the parents who grant their children m re responsibility, ene uragethemt ■ voice their pin: ns, listen closely to these, t derate differ ent viewpoints . . .and then make the final decisi n and make it stick, these parents rear a much happier and m >re successful family than those parents wh» go in for the "permissiveness' idea. DEAR SALLY: I m a college man, financing my wn education with a part-time j .b, and com- pelled^tbitve n a pretty strict budget. There s a certain at tractive co-ed I've been dating regularly, wh likes me very much, but who has objected to my suggestion that we go steady n a “Dutch' basis. Since l*er par ents give her a very liberal al lowance, don't you think my idea is reasonable 0 Ji 'F'i. DEAR JOEY: An occasional Dutch date might be all right under certain circumstances, but not as a steady arrangement. If you must watch your pennies so closely, either you should cut >ut all dating, or make nly the dates you yourself can afford t 'pay f T. Certainly you should NOT be en tering any steady dating arrange ment with the stipulation that the girl help to finance ALL your good times. DEAR SALLY: I married a wid ower with an 18-year-old daughter two years ago. The girl lives with her late mother’spar- ents, and neither she nor these people have ever accepted me as a friend. Now the girl is going to be married, and they have invited my husband to the wedding and reception -- but not me. Do you think, as a matter of princi ple, that 1 should accompany my husband to the wedding and re ception anyway? OSTRACIZED. DEAR OSTRACIZED: I cannot see what principle you would serve by crashing an affair to winch you haven't been invited . . .or what happiness and sat isfaction you could possibly gain. My advice is to stay at home. . and forget their rude ness. DEAR SALLY: My fiance and I broke up in a stormy session a month ago, and ever since then he's been after me with phone calls to return the engagement ring. Up to now I've refused on the gr iunds that since the ring was given to me as a gift, it's mine to keep. Don’t you think I’m right about this? RING AROUND. DEAR RING AROUND: Techni cal!, yes. But logically, no. There really isn’t any point in keeping what was originally a symbol of “eternal devotion,” and now is nothing more than a memento of a shattered romance. Since this young man is making such a big issue of it, I’d let him have the ring if I were you. Mountville Grange To Meet Tonight The regular monthly supper meeting of the Mountville Grange will be held on Thursday, March 19 at 7 p.m. at the Grange Hall in M iuntville. Members and their families are urged to attend. Mr. John J. Bingham, Execu tive Director of the YMCA in Clinton, will speak to the Grange on this occasion. The public is invited to hear Mr. Bingham, beginning atSp.m. Your aquarium should be an enjoyable, attractive, and enter taining attraction to your home. Along with all this entertainment and beauty comes a few problems which, if dealt with a bit of know ledge, simplifies itself and turns the entire family into doctors, nurses, dieticians and gardners. The idea of the aquarium is to take the underwater world and bring it down to a smaller, more compact form. The aquarium should be a duplication of the perfect balance between fish, plants, water, light and oxygen as in natural habitat. To obtain this balance it is necessary to under stand a few basic principles of the underwater world. Let us look first at the fish. This fasinating creature, if given the proper conditions, will never cease to amaze you. The tropi- Allmon's Unit Wins AF Award NORTH CHARLESTON - Ser geant David K. Allman, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Allman, 103 Jackson St., Clinton is a mem ber of a unit that has earned the U. S. Air Force Outstand ing Unit Award. Sergeant Allman, an aircraft mechanic in the 437th Military Airlift Wing, Charleston AFB, will wear a distinctive service ribbon to mark his affiliation with the unit. The wing was cited for meri torious service in support of military operations from July 1968 to July 1969. The 437th is part of the Mili tary Airlift Command which pro vides global airlift for U. S. military forces. Sergeant Allman graduated in 1966 from Clinton High School. His wife, Elizabeth, is the daughter of William P. Nabors, 116 Reeden St., Joanna. Women comprised 39.1 per cent of the non-salaried workforce in the South Carolina textile in dustry in 1969, figures of the S. C. Department of Labor show. cal fish requires a nominal tem perature of 78 degrees. At this temperature maintained on a con stant basis, the fish will thrive more readily. The fish takes water and oxygen is absorbed by the gills. In turn the fish gives off carbon dioxide which is used by plants. Plants, in the presence of light, asorb the carbon dioxide to man ufacture sugar and release oxy gen. However, most of the oxygen present in the water is absorbed from the waters surface. Without light, the plants deplete the water of oxygen and in a short time will decompose and foul the wa ter. Ten to 15 hours of light per day is adequate for proper plant performance and growth. In an aquarium, artificial light is preferred because it is almost impossible to obtain sunlight from an overhead position which is an important factor, affecting the fish as well as the plants. The flourscent lights are pre ferred not only because of the attractiveness it gives to the aquarium but mainly because it does not interfere with the tem perature of the water, as do the incadesent lights. Water condition is an important aspect ofthe aquarium. The water should be free of chlorene and should, for most tropicals, be slightly acid. The most widely recommended water temperature is 78 degrees which should not vary more than two degrees at any time because an increase or decrease of more than the two degrees will cause illness which could result in death to the fish. The water should be aerated, not to put oxygen into the water but to eliminate the carbon di oxide. This process is employed by means of aerating stones or ornaments. It will take a little practice, some research, time and a little effort to accomplish satisfact orily this balance, but the ac complishment will result in many hours of entertainment for the entire family.
