LOUISA’S LETTER

Dear Louisa I have one brother, who has recently married a verylovely girl and they have come to our town to live. My husband and 1 have a number of friends who have entertained the young couple and seemed to like them very much at first but, as time goes on I detect a coolness between them and some of our friends. 1 don't understand the cause unless it’s because my relatives are not too dependable about little things. If they accept an invitation and some* thing comes up that they would rather do, they excuse themselves at the last minute. They’re very generous in many ways but it’s usually when it doesn’t demand a sacrifice of any kind. Do you think I should point out to them that they are losing friends because of this trait? M.D.-Va. Answer: 1 doubt if it would do any good to say anything to them unless they' ask for advice. Your young people are probably folks who have always done as they pleased and ra-

tionalize that what they do is the proper thing to do. It’s very easy to persuade ourselves that what we are doing is the right thing and it’s very easy to be generous in promising to take a job if we have no compunction about leaving it for someone else to do at the last minute. A child should be taught not to treat responsibility lightly. If he accepts a task, he should be made to see that it’s done although it involves some sacrifice. I was taught as a child the importance of being dependable, as were the majority of children of -that era, and I have never forgotten it. To me duty is a part of my religion and although I have made many mistakes and am imperfect in many ways, I have always tried to do what I thought was best and what I considered my duty. A respect for duty and dependability must be taught during childhood as it’s very hard for one who has not learned their value through the years to realize their importance. / Louisa Address letters: Louisa, Box 532, Orangeburg, S.C. 29115

News in no news There is more news abobt what is not going on in North Webster this week than what is happening. The Barbee Ladies Christian Service didn’t meet this month and the Firemen’s Auxiliary meeting was cancelled. It seems everyone has a house full of company, is on vacation, or much too busy putting up produce from their gardens. Many of the home extension clubs and other organizations don’t meet during July and

August. Those that do generally plan a picnic or theater party instead of a regular meeting. It’s time to start shopping for school clothes, make last minute visits to the dentist and fill out all those papers that seem necessary to register for classes. Also, August has become almost as popular a month for weddings as June. Our 4-H club members are gearing up for the State Fair with

The Department of the Army has announced that it will again enlist 17-year old males who have not completed high school, but meet the mental and educational requirements set forth. The change, effective immediately, will assist the Army Recruiting Command in meeting the Army’s Fiscal Year active end strength. The Army stopped enlisting 17 year old non-high school graduates in February 1978 because, as a group, their attrition rate was higher than the rates of high school graduates and older non-high school graduates. Added recruiting experience and new screening procedures are expected to hold attrition within acceptable levels. DEBRA DARR Spec. Four Debra S. Darr, daughter of Mrs. Donna Belle L.
