Perhaps it's unfair to shift the blame, but both my parents and in-laws have contributed handsomely to ruining our marriage. When my husband and I had our first tiff I phoned Mother and Dad long-distance. They told me to get on the next plane and come live with them. I -was seven month's pregnant and mother warned me against staying with my husband if he upset me. Like a fool I left him. The following day, my in-lsws come to our apartment, took all my husband's belongings and moved him into their house. They told him I was a spoiled brat and urged him to divorce me. Now our baby is three months old. My husband has written that he wants us back. I want to go. But my folks keep saying the baby will be better off in their spacious home thancooped up in a small apartment with no yard. They also tell me if I go back to him I can't come home if we have another fight. Please help me. I want to do what's best for the baby. ANGELA Your child will be far better off with a father and no yard, than in that gold-plated squirrel-cage. Get oa the next thing that moves and go back to your hosband. Let's hope your folks keep their word and dont' permit yon to come home if yon have another, fight. It's too bad this rule wasn't in operation earlier. Your parents have short memories. They forget the times in their marriage when they may have wanted to throw In the sponge. But they stayed together and settled their differences because no mahogany-paneled doors were open to them. The biggest favor parents can do for their married children Is to let them work out their own domestic problems alone. Dear Ann: I'm a girl, IS, and rather mature for my age, at least so I've been told. I have a stepuncle .about 70 years old who is a pill. When ever I hear he's coming over I try to be at my girl friend's house. My big complaint against him is that he always grabs me and kisses me on the lips whenever he sees me. I just hate it I've just about decided to paste him one the next time he pulls this. Do I have your permision? LINDA . Sorry, Linda pasting a man his age Is out of the question. Simply be fleet of foot and give him your cheek next time. If he complains, buy him the record "I'm a Big Girl Now" and give it to him, gift-wrapped, (Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her in Care of this newspaper and enclose a stamped self -addressed envelope.) (CoprrUht 1KI, Field Xnterprisea, Inc.)

Tom Elliott, owner of The Pit for the past seven years gives Em ma Kaufmann, pastry cook a lot of credit for his dining place's dis tinctive food. Recipes for homemade bread and pies are those Mrs. Elliott used to prepare in The Pit's kitchen before three youngsters arrived to keep her busy at home. The Elliotts came to Salem from Canada via Seattle and Eugene. Though the place, filled to the doors, holds only 88 customers, the establishment serves from 300 to 350 daily lunch and dinner. More customers come for lunch, Elliott tells me, but the cash register says they spend more money at dinnertime. Of course the meat, cooked in the brick pit, with a distinctive sauce ia the featured food. A super roast of beef, deliciously brown on the outside., juicy on the inside, came out of the pit while I was looking around. Though the fresh homemade bread comes out of the oven in large quantities, Emma Kaufmann's department makes its biggest hit with its pies. Customers have a choice of five pies daily. One su per, deluxe pie is featured one day each week arid as I visited The Pit on Wednesday, I found that a delicious lemon pie was the Big Name dessert for the day. Here is a recipe for that specialty: THE PIT LEMON PIE cup cold water y teaspoon salt 7 tablespoons cornstarch 1H cups hot water IVi cups sugar Grated rind 1 lemon Vx cup lemon juice 3 eggs 1 tablespoon butter 6 tablespoons sugar (for meringue) Mix cold water, salt and cornstarch together. Combine hot wa ter, sugar, grated rind of lemon in a saucepan and bring to boil over direct heat Add cornstarch mixture and cook until thick and smooth (about 15 minutes), stirring constantly. Beat egg yolks slight ly, stir into other mixture an cook a few minutes longer. Add lemon juice and butter and blend. Cool. Pour into a baked shell, spread with meringue made from the egg whites and 6 tablespoons sugar and bake at 325 degrees 25 to 30 minutes or until meringue is firm and lightly browned.
