Dear Abby : Man's backyard is a dog's world
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I decided to have our breakfast and read the Sunday paper out-of-doors on our patio. In your column that day was a letter from Irene Cupido, an animal welfare worker. She stated that dogs usually bark to convey some kind of message: They are either hungry, frightened, cold, lonely or in some kind of trouble. Meanwhile, our breakfast was ruined by the loud and constant barking of dogs in the adjoining backyards. This has been a continuing problem in our block with seven barking dogs who never seem to let up. Why must we suffer this annoyance because seven dog owners choose to neglect the pets they have imprisoned in their yards? At this point, 1 know of no practical solution except to poison the dogs, which, of course, I would not consider. Yet I cannot help but wonder about a society that places a dog’s rights before those of a human. Please use my name. KENNETH E. MARICLE, RICHMOND, VA. DEAR MR. MARICLE: Has the Richmond Police Department heard about this? There are laws about disturbing the peace. Why not disturb their peace until your peace has been restored? DEAR ABBY: Who says travel is no fun when you’re widowed? I happen to have a living husband, but I travel alone because Sidney hates to travel and 1 love it.

Heloise Calendar serves as handy reminder
DEAR HELOISE: ;My hint is one which will last for years... *1 bought a calendar with l&rge blocks for writing in things I wanted to remember, family current events, etc. I wrote down birthdays, doctor appointments, when the children were ill and the nature of their illnesses. *lt’s a great place to keep immunization records which y our child will need when starting to school. Vacation trips were noted, when school began and ended as well as school events. I listed the date we bought our car and other major purchases, our own appointments and little personal happenings. I have four calendars now so I can look back and remember everything for the last 4 years. -If you do this, be sure to lang your calendar where it is easily accessible. I have mine n the kitchen.

Great! You have a detailed liary which contains a world if information you can get at without having to dig through stacks of papers. And, if you have a place to store them, someday these calendars will bring back a host of memories.—Heloise HINTS FROM HIM DEAR HELOISE: Having never lived alone until now, I don’t know much about cooking but I have learned to line cooking utensils with aluminum foil to make them easier to clean. At first, I poked and pushed, try ing to get the foil to fit down into the pan and usually ended up with a hole or a tear in it. But now, I turn the pan over, place- the foil in place and gently press to shape it around the pan. When I remove the foil, I have the contour of the pan which easily fits down into it and makes a much better liner as well. George Cassiday
Deßoer read an article “the Trouble Maker,” a serious discussion of quick judgements, and a humorous reading “Will Wonders Never Cease.” The secretary’s report was read and approved. Contests
Once l talked Sidney into taking a short cruise with me. What a mistake! He drank excessively because the barstool was the only place on the ship he felt comfortable. Sidney hates to dance and I’d rather dance than eat, so I sat there in total frustration, tapping my toes while the orchestra played. I enjoy traveling alone because there are always a lot of single ladies to chat with. Also, gentlemen ask me to dance because I’m unescorted. At home we get along very well, but Sidney is a drag on a trip. He complains constantly about missing his waterbed, his familiar routine and his friends. He has no interest in seeing new places or meeting new people. He’s bored and boring. I’m just the opposite. So Sidney stays home gladly and I go without him. IT’S BETTER ALONE DEAR BETTER: You’re lucky. Most husbands who hate to travel also hate to let their wives travel alone. DEAR ABBY: I never dreamed I would be writing a Dear Abby letter, but here I am. I am an attractive widow who has fallen in love with a wonderful widower. We discussed marriage and any possible sex hang-ups that could present problems. As it turns out, he likes breasts with nipples, and I don’t have any. You see, I was born with “inverted nipples.” (They are there, but turn inward.)
DEAR HELOISE: If any of your readers are bed- or chair-ridden, try an uncovered foam pillow form to rest a clipboard or book on. The non-skid surface conforms to one’s knees and your clipboard or whatever does not slide off easily. It’s much more comfortable than a lap tray arrangement. Also, it’s a soft resting place for an arm when writing. P.C. * * * DEAR HELOISE: The cheapest, thinnest, nonwoven interfacing available is perfect for copying tissue sewing patterns. It’s thin enough to place on top of the original and copy all instructions darts, straight of fabric, etc. Furthermore, you will be able to use the copied pattern endlessly as it can survive tracing wheels and pin holes forever.

My first husband never complained, so I never thought anything about it until I met this man. Can a problem like this be solved at my age? (I am 60.) I really love this man and want to be a complete woman for him. I have never heard of another woman with this problem. Please help me, Abby. I don’t want to lose him to someone else and I’m afraid I might. WORRIED IN IDAHO DEAR WORRIED: Your problem is not as unusual as you think it is. Fortunately inverted nipples can be corrected surgically. It is a relatively simple procedure and can be done under local anesthesia. Be sure the doctor who performs this procedure is a Board Certified Plastic and Reconstruction Surgeon. Your family physician or county medical association can recommend one. CONFIDENTIAL TO J. IN MODESTO: A very perceptive man once said: “Beauty is a gift. Charm must be cultivated. A beautiful woman is one I notice. A charming woman is one who notices me.” CONFIDENTIAL to those who have sent for Abby’s booklets: Please, please be patient. 1 am literally deluged with orders and am getting them out as quickly as possible.
