Newspaper Boys Paid Tribute At Woman's Benefit Meeting . wncn ine womans Benefit As (ociution members met Monday evening (or their social meeting. they were greeted by a table dec prated with a miniature, white film altar bearing a book of poems of famous aulbo.s dated iom 1630 ta 1930 and published by Mark Van Doren. Banked on either side were miniature bas Jtets of gold mums and blue fall asters. Gold and bronze leaves were strewn among- books of 'Treasured Verso' and 'Ideals' ar ranged about on the table. A small United States flag stood at attention before the altar. Mrs. V. E. Garrett, president, led in a salute to the flag and followed up with a brief outline of busi ness. October 17 had been set aside as "National Newspaper Boy Day" so two young salesmen were paid tribute; they were James Zigler and David Dodson, as rep resentatives of those young busi ness starters, in early training of saving and duty, and attention to 'business. A panel discussic n was parti cipated in by those present. ANN LANDERS Answers Your Problems Dear Ann: That 12-year-old boy .who complained because his grandmother cut his har and the kids teasrd him started me think ing. If more people would cut .their kids' hair at home maybe V could get the barber prices 'down where they belong. I'm the father of three young sons. We live in Chicago. Every other Saturday the four of us go for haircuts. It costs $1.75 for each boy. Mine is 2.00. I'm al most completely bald. The barber usually gets me out of his chair in 9 minutes. My 7-and-8-year-olds have crew cuts. Last week I timed them. They were out of the chair In 13 and 15 minutes each. The 5-year-old takes 15 minutes. The barber gets $7.25. We take a bus both ways. This little excursion chews a $10 bill to pieces. Maybe if you hear from whole slew of outraged fathers who are tired of getting clipped, both figuratively and literally, we can get the price of haircuts down to where they make sense. Chicago Pop. Dear Chicago Pop: I've l , ready heard from a slew of out raged fathers. I'm willing to 'print a solution to this problem ' if someone will com up with 'on. I assume, too, that Hie barbers have a side. I'd like to hear it. Dear Ann: My husband and I WARDELLS FOR BETTER MEAT BUYS S.4H.

Jim used to go with the girl. I'll call her Mae. I think she is still after him. When we go to the movies she tries' to sit next to him. When ever there's music she asks Jim to dance she doesn't even wait till he asks her. Maer is always reminding him of the swell times they had together. I feel left out. Her husband doesn't say anything but I'm sure he doesn't l.ke it any more than I do. Jim has no id?a I'm worried cr upset. I keep tel'ing myself there's nothing to it because Jim broke up with Mae to go with me. But I'm still jumpy inside and worry that maybe I will lose him. Please tell me how to handle this delicate situation. Uneasy Victor. Dear Uneasy: If you want real trouble iust start to make noises like a jealous wife. Mae sounds like an aggressive fe male who lost out during court ship because of her pushiness. Most men can tolerate fust so much chasing, then they run for cover. Be patient and silent.
