Director Thompson explained
that the money will be used to
purchase an auditory training
unit with earphones for five
children, so that very young
children may be trained in
groups to distinguish sounds.
He explained the process by
which deaf children are shown
pictures, then taught sounds to
accompany the pictures, to give
a first idea of speech.
First, he said, they are taught
the gross sounds, such as those
of a bell or drum; finally, they

'Dear
Abby'
Abigail Van Buren

DEAR ABBY: My 8-year-old SQn is absolutely crazy about
the color green! His clothes have to be green or he won't wear
them. When he gets a chance to select his toys, he always looks
for the green ones. He loves green foods and neglects every
thing else. He hopes that because I shampoo his hair with
green shampoos his hair will turn green. I love my son very
much, but we don't see eye-to-eye on this green business. He
doesn't do this just to bug me. He is really gone on green. Is
this problem serious enough to consult a child phychologist?
WORRIED
DEAR WORRIED: Maybe. The boy's preference for green
can't do any real harm unless you allow him to carry it to ex
tremes. Perhaps It is only a phase. If he doesn't outgrow it, by
all means take him to a child psychologist.
DEAR ABBY: My daughter-in-law is a pleasant enough
person. She is a good mother and housekeeper, and my son
seems to be satisfied with her. But she is a "ME" and "MINE"
person. She says, "MY house, MY children, MY car and MY
everything." Don't you think she should be thoughtful enough
of her husband's efforts to say "OUR" instead? She reads
your column.
DISGUSTED MOTHER-IN-LAW
DEAR DISGUSTED: Yes, but don't be too critical. Her
personal performance is more important than her possessive
pronouns.
CONFIDENTIAL TO SAMMY: When the cat's away, some
mice act like rats. Next time stay home.
' Still worrying about the same old problem? Writs to
Abby for a personal reply. Enclose a stamped self-addressed
envelope.
