DEAR ABBY
Couple’s roommates get snippy over canine care
Dear Abby: My husband and I are newly-
weds and share an apartment with another
couple because we ran into fi nancial diffi cul-
ties, and this was our only option. The prob-
lem is the other couple has two dogs they
expect us to take care of while they’re at work.
My husband and I get home two hours
earlier than they do in the evening, and they
have become accustomed to our generosity in
occasionally taking the dogs out and walking
them. They now expect us to do it every day,
and get angry and nasty if we don’t. Please
help. — In The Doghouse in Georgia
Dear In The Doghouse: You and your
roommates appear to have a communication
problem. Speak up. Tell them you dislike
their palming off the responsibility for walk-
ing their animals and you won’t be doing it about priests doing this, but I was going to
anymore. Then remind them that while you a Pentecostal church. — Male Reader in

I tell my doctor or just let it go? I have heard fl oss in public? When my mom eats out, she
uses dental fl oss while she is still at the table
or while walking out of the restaurant. She
thinks she’s being discreet, but what she’s
doing is obvious.
When I ask her to stop, she says she can’t
stand having food in her teeth. I tell her to
go into the restroom or do it outside, but
she does neither and continues to fl oss. I’m
hoping she’ll listen to you and that you will

Dear Ellen: I agree that fl ossing one’s
teeth in public is unsightly and something
that should be done in private. If it becomes
necessary, it should be done in the restroom.
(Need I add that if there is mouth-rinsing,
the sink should be cleaned afterward and
any detritus stuck to the mirror removed?)
DAYS GONE BY
100 Years Ago
July 24, 1921
Arthur Humphrey is in jail at Seattle on request of the
offi ce of Sheriff Zoeth Hodser on a charge of kidnapping
Mrs. M. Aldrich, daughter of Rev. Storm of Weston. The
arrest followed the alleged kidnapping of the woman from
Weston Saturday when Humphrey, said to be a taxi driver
of Seattle, invited Mrs. Aldrich to take a ride with him in a
Buick car. She is said to have been spirited away from the
home of her father and taken to Seattle. Information on the
case is to the eff ect that Mrs. Aldrich has been in Seattle
for several months, where she made the acquaintance of
Humphrey, but a short time since, she returned to Weston.
The visit of Humphrey and the disappearance of the woman
followed. The woman’s husband was drowned about 18
months ago. Humphrey will be brought here for trial on a
charge of kidnapping.
50 Years Ago
July 24, 1971
Lamb-Weston, Inc. which processes 10 per cent of the
nation’s frozen peas at its Weston plant, will have to shut
down the plant because of the strike against Union Pacifi c
Railroad. J.L Baxter Jr., Portland, executive vice president
and general manager of Lamb-Weston, said that without rail
service or substitute service the company was forced to close
the vegetable processing plant. The remainder of the pea crop,
estimated at 10 million pounds, is valued at $1.5 million to $2
million. A Union Pacifi c spokesman said “no end is in sight”
for the strike, now in its second week.
25 Years Ago
July 24, 1996
Fidelina Garcilazo can stop being afraid now. The Irri-
gon woman said she has lived in fear since her daughter was
murdered in 1995. She was afraid the man suspected of the
shooting would come and take her two small grandchildren.
On Tuesday, Oregon State Police and Morrow County sher-
iff ’s detectives told Garcilazo and her husband, Aurellio, that
the man they believe killed their daughter has been captured.
Miguel Aguilera has been in custody in Mexico since last
week. Aguilera, then 21, was the boyfriend of the Garcilazos’
19-year-old daughter, Martina, and the father of her two chil-
dren. Martina was last seen April 20, 1995, in the company
of Aguilera. The two were reported missing by family a few
days later.
