Heloise Sharp scheduling hint
DEAR HELOISE: We have a very large family and when scheduling dinner time and other activities became a very tedious procedure, I knew I had to figure out some way before I went crazy! What I did was to make a master schedule and pass it around to each member of the family for them to write in school activities, sport events, church meetings or work hours. This way I knew when certain members would be late for dinner or that they wouldn’t be home at all. Besides helping me, this also gives the children plenty of time to rearrange their schedule for a special family dinner or other engagement. Now I know when to serve dinner and I also know where each child is. Lisa Chavez, Arlington, Texas * * * How clever you are! Scheduling is very important in all busy families. Thank you for writing and sharing your tip. Heloise GLUE RESIDUE Dear Heloise: Recently I purchased some plastic picnic plates. Each plate had a big round sticker glued on it. This is where I need the help. How do I remove the glue residue that has remained after the removal of the sticker? I’ve tried many things and nothing helps. The residue still remains and I can’t even use these plates. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Denise Metania, Chicago, 111. ♦ ♦ a My favorite hint is to spray some prewash spray on the residue and let it set for a few minutes, then wipe it off with a dry cloth. If it is stubborn, sprinkle a little baking soda or cornmeal on the glue and rub vigorously with a dry cloth. This should do the trick and remove that stubborn residue. Enjoy your picnic! Heloise ICE CUBE TRAYS Dear Heloise: I used to hate filling ice cube trays as I would always spill the water on the floor, counter, etc. I just knew there had to be a better way. The other day I was watering my plants and thought I could use my

water can (with the spout) to fill the ice cube trays in the freezer. Now, when I take out the tray and empty the cubes, I place the empty tray back in the freezer and use my watering can to fill it. It works wonderfully! No more spills! Rita S. Elko, Nev. COFFEE CANS Dear Heloise: An empty coffee can is a useful scoop for spreading sand or rock salt on icy sidewalks. In the summer, I use one for peat moss, bone meal, etc. Traveling with a portable ice cooler? Fill a coffee can the night before with water (leaving space for expansion) and freeze. It will help keep your food chilled. Everyone knows how handy coffee cans are for paint and for cleaning paint brushes, storing cookies and crackers, keeping toy parts together, separating nuts, bolts, nails and screws. They are even good for keeping crayons in one place. There are so many uses that I could keep writing for days, instead, I’ll let you use your own imagination. Helen Markwith, Livingston, NJ. BRUSH FOR CLEANING Dear Heloise: I keep a baby bottle nipple brush alongside my other scrubbers. It’s great for quickly cleaning cheese graters, getting inside other hard to clean spaces such as the rims of plastic lids, etc. It’s also great to keep an extra one for cleaning faucets where the hard water scum collects. An old toothbrush does a reasonably good job but because of the more pointed edge on the nipple brush, it is easier to get into those really narrow areas. Hope this hint lessens someone’s scrubbing time as well as saves their fingertips. Susan Kilpatrick

Dear Abby
DEAR ABBY: I am so angry I can hardly see to write this. I believe in justice, mercy and forgiveness, but now I’m reading that it’s “unfair” to further punish a person for a crime after he has paid his debt to society referring to the monster who raped a teen-age girl, chopped off her arms with an ax and left her for dead in a ditch. The person who committed this crime was sentenced to 14 years in prison, served only eight years, and then, because of a “flawed law,” was released for “good behavior”! What kind of legal system would allow a person who had committed such a terrible crime to be returned to society? The man is now living in a trailer at San Quentin Prison, protected by two parole agents at the cost of $1,350 a day to ensure his safety! Officials had tried to place this convicted rapist-mutilator in several northern California communities, but none would have him. (Can you blame them?) I resent my tax money going to protect this man; he is either insane and belongs in a mental institution, or he should be returned to prison to rot. How do you feel about this? And what can be done about it? OUTRAGED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR OUTRAGED: I, too, am outraged. Although it is too late to do anything about this particular case, the quickest way to get this law changed is to write a letter to your state senators and assemblypersons, as well as to the governor, stating your feelings about this “flawed law” and demanding that it be changed to one that more appropriately fits the crime. * * * DEAR ABBY: Your reply to “Denver Dilemma” was somewhat shortsighted and narrow. I agree, to marry because you want to be a mother is a poor reason for marriage, but marriage is not required to become a mother as many foolish teens have discovered to their chagrin. You offer to “Denver” the options of single adoptive parenthood or finding a marriageable man, but why be so restrictive? I am a 32-year-old professional woman who is also aware that my biological clock is running out, and I have a dear male friend who has

agreed to be a sperm donor for me if, by age 35,1 haven’t met someone I want to marry. If “Denver” can be a single adoptive parent, she can just as well be a single natural parent, without going through the adoption process, or “scrounging around” for a marriageable man. Having a partner to raise children with is ideal but it’s not the only way. BIDING MY TIME DEAR BIDING: Having a dear male friend who has agreed to donate his sperm should you “need” it is not without its problems. The child he has fathered biologically will be a lifelong bond between you and could conceivably (no pun intended) cause problems both legal and social later on. Think about it. * ♦ ♦ DEAR ABBY: When that 16-year-old, fairly attractive female asked what to say to people who say, “Did you know you have a mustache?” you advised her to look them squarely in the eye and say, “Yes. And thank you for reminding me.” I think these dumbbells deserve something like this: Look them squarely in the eye and say, “Yes, and did you know you have a big nose?” (“a flat chest?” “a big behind?”) FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE DEAR FIGHT: One who fights fire with fire risks making an ash of himself. Why go down to their level to get even? * * * (For Abby’s booklet, “What Every Teen-Ager Ought to Know,” send a check or money order for $2.50 and a long, stamped (39 cents), self-ad-dressed envelope to: Dear Abby, Teen Booklet, P.O.
