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 ises. Before you even con­ sider moving out under the circumstance which you de­ scribed, make sure this guy is capable of full fill mg his promises and let him get the new apartment and buy you the new word robe and car be­ fore you even give his prom­ ises another thought. Pig on the Pit Restaurant 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.

The problem is that she has this g irl friend who is always with 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 using me for my money. A l­ though they say there are just good friends. How do I find out if they are Lesbians?

The program is designed to promote the child's intellec­ tual and social growth by en­ couraging them to share; to express curiosity and imagin­ ation; to develop coordination and musical rhythm. A fealthful enviroment is maintained with physical ex­ amination on admission, dally health checks, rest periods and a hot dinner at noon with mld-mornlng and afternoon snacks. Fees are scaled to the parents' ability to pay with the operating deficit met by UGN and the St. Vincent de Paul Society. The need for St M artin Day N ursery is greater today than in 1940.T h erearem o rech lld - ren who need pre-school care and more mothers who must work to augment the fathers* income o r who are the sole support of the children. St. M artin Day Nursery has been filled to capacity the last six years with a normal wait­ ing list o f5 0 o rm orechildren. The Sisters of St. Francis, the advisory board and the St. Vincent de Paul Society are alert to the need for larg er facilities. Additional space is a definite part of the Nursery's future plans.
