LOUISA'S LETTER

Dear Louisa, My granddaughter asked me a few days ago if I would like to be young and live my life over and she was amazed when I said that I would not if everything happened again just as it did before. She said she thought that I always seemed to be happy and had a very happy life. I told tier that everyone makes mistakes and that I should hate to go over all the ones I had made. That we have to take the bad along with the good and the disappointments along with the good things and if it were possible to change some of the things that happened and my reactions to them I would like to be young again. The trouble with most of us is that we haven’t had the experience or the sense we have now at the time when we were young and our problems were beginning. We suffered unduly because of our youth and not knowing how to meet difficult situations. I don’t regret having married the man I did and I have had many happy years but 1 can’t say that I would like to live it over again. Grandmother--Ind.

Dear Louisa, We have a neighbor who has decided to raise chickens although we live in the main part of our city. Our houses are very close with two small back yards which join. Now my problem is this: Chickens give my husband hay fever and ever since our neighbor has started with chickens we are unable to use our yard because it starts my husband off sneezing and he has to come back in the house or go off to some other place. What can we do about such a situation? H.L.-N.C. Answer: The majority of cities have laws which require people who keep horses, cows or raise chickens to have them a certain distance from other people’s premises. You should contact the health department of your city and find out if the law allows this man to have a chicken farm in the city. Louisa Address: Louisa, Box 532, Orangeburg, S. C. 29115
