Dear Abby : Mom likes fun but not games

DEAR ABBY: Here’s a neat one for you. Mom was widow ed many years ago and has since built herself a very successful career as a realtor. She's 60-ish, slim and attractive, but she's allowed her business to usurp her social life. .Recently, in showing a property, she met a widower her age who lives just a few blocks from her. He's tall, good looking, gray haired and w ell-dressed. He lives alone in a big house and has several foreign cars. I've met him, and he’s really a great guy who looks and acts like he's not exactly hungry. Well, this gentleman has been giving Mom a big rush and providing her with lots of fun and laughter. Recently he sent Mom a semi serious invitation in the mail inviting her to "spend several naughty days with me at one of California's 'most romantic spots —Carmel.” I said. “Mom, get with if and go!” Mom said, "No way: it's just not my lifestyle." What do vou sav, Abbv? TODAY'S DAUGHTER DEAR DAUGHTER: Don’t try to redesign Mom in your image. It’s not easy for some people to "get with it” when they've gotten along nicely WITHOUT it for years. *. DEAR FRIEND: I've been a faithful reader for many -rears. The few t imes I disagreed w it h you, you subsequently Ipiinteda retraction or, at least, admitted the opposition had ■*a good case. In this instance, 1 don’t think you w ill, but 1 had -io write any wav.

I refer to your attitude about a citizen's right to have a gun in his home. I'll admit some folks are not well-advised to defend themselves against an armed intruder (children, those unfamiliar with weapons, and the senile). All others have a DUTY to resist evil. If a burglar should call on me, he would find that my home and business are protected by a "silent intruder alarm." The installation record is not on any company’s book: I put it in myself. I would have the advantage of surprjse and, though I can’t consistently shoot out the "()” ring at 62, I could probably wear my Navy marksmanship medals to his funeral, incidentally saving the state a bundle, too. In the apartment house where you probably live, the ratio of security people is about fifty to one. Out here in the jungle, the ratio is several thousand to one. Fortunately, your attitude was not so prevalent in 1915, or we might have had an Auschwitz or Buchenwald in Milwaukee or Louisville. As the late Joseph Goebbels said to Heinrich Himmler, "Es gebl z.u denken" ("It makes one think"). You give it some thought, too, sweetheart, and you just might change your mind. In any case, you've helped a lot of people and 1 still love vou, even though I'll bet vou won t print this. 808 STICKLER A DEAR BOB: You lose. I’.S. Accede to the federal requirements of gun registration and you can have an arsenal if it makes you feel any more "American" —or secure.

DEAR ABBY: I’m planning my wedding and want to provide a nursery where the guests can leave all children under

DEAR ABBY: I’m planning my wedding and want to pro vide a nursery where the guests can leave all children under 4. Do you think that would hurt the feelings of relatives with small children? I don’t want screaming babies, fussy or restless tots, or children dropping hymnals, all of which I’ve seen happen time and time again! Small children are wonderful, but not when they cry and talk during a wedding ceremony which should be a sacred occasion. Would it be proper to include a note with my wedding in vitations notifying the guests that such a nursery is available for all children under 17 BRIDE TO BE DEAR BRIDE: It’s not only proper, it’s a great idea. Getting married?
