D e a r D r . Boothe:
I have been going with thia
guy fo r about a year now and
he has promised me every
thing, but he hasn't really
given me anything. He prom
ised me that if I would move
in with him that we would
move to a new luxoury apart
ment and he would tuy me a
new word robe and a. new car.
He sounds very sincere and
I can see that we would have
m ore if we were living to
gether. | am living with my
folks now. Should I take the
chance and move in with him
and just give it a try?

Not on your dignity.
I think you should continue
to live with your folks until
you a re ready to move out on
your own or get m arried, but
certanly not on empty prom

sider moving out under the
circumstance which you de

promises and let him get the
new apartment and buy you
the new word robe and car be
fore you even give his prom

D e a r D r . Boothe:
Last month I was hired by
this Portland Co., and the
other day 1 received this big
bill from this employment
agency that I had gone to in
August.
The company called and told
me to report to work, not the
employment agency. Do 1 just
ignore this bill o r what?
Employed,
D e a r Employed:
You had gone to this em
ployment agency and as a re
sult they established contact
between you and the company.
Even though the contact was
made in August and the com
pany did not call you until
December, the employment
agency is still by law entitled
to the same fee as if the com
pany had hired you in August.
The simplest thing to do is to
work out an Installment plan
with them and pay the bill a
little at a tim e. Most employ
ment agencies can understand
your financial situation and
w ill work with you in making
it ea sier for you to pay.

D e a r D r . Boothe:
I have been going with this
cal for quite some tim e. The
problem is that she has this

her. We have very little time
alone to ourselves. When we
go out I am always put in the
position of feeling guilty, un
less I take her friend along.
They room together and from
the way they act I think they
might be Lesbiens, and just

good friends. How do I find

Today 65 children are cared

The program is designed to
promote the child's intellec

couraging them to share; to
express curiosity and imagin

and musical rhythm.
A fealthful enviroment is
maintained with physical ex

health checks, rest periods
and a hot dinner at noon with

snacks.
Fees are scaled to the
parents' ability to pay with
