I keep getting into fights with my1 mother no matter how ban I try to keeD out of them The funny thing is that I seem to get along very well with ev eryone else. I don"t know what it is, but my mother just gels on my irves. I have a terrible tem- per and I say things I don't mean. Sometimes I feel like kill ing myself for the things I say. yet next day I 11 say them azain I irbn't e how I'll ever grow up into a normal person. Some u of my friends say they fight with thnf- mothers, but not the way I do. Maybe my parents are too good to me and have spoiled me. Mrs. H. G. My husband and T really have spoiled Phyllis and permitted her to ride roughshod over us. She was ill a great deal 'ax child and we gave in to her Ury whim.

Phyllis appears to have the normal adolescent feelings of guilt and fear to a somewhat more intense degree than most children. If she was ill a great deal as a child, she may have found and may still be findine. keeping up with others in her age group something of a strain She may feel more than the us ual dependence on her parents, and is fighting this in her out bursts. The fact that she consid ers herself "a problem at home" indicates she seeks both help and punishment. Phyllis' parents should not en courage her to feel she is a prob lem, and should show that they understand her unreasonable hostility toward her mother at this time is part of growing up. She should be assured that she will outgrow this stage, that she is perfectly "normal" and prob ably not as bad or spoiled as she thinks she is. Phyllis wiU have less anxiety about her personality traits and htr ability to "grow up into a normal person" if she is helped to focus more on outside activi ties. Mr. and Mrs. R. G. should try to find out her main interests and abilities and encourage them. Sports, dancing, music, dramatics are all good outlets. If Phyllis finds she can excell in something, she will gain assur ance about her ability to cope with life. In the meantime, these parents should try to accept Phyllis' outbursts as calmly as possible. (Copyright 1957, General Features Corp.) SPECIAL PURCHASE! DgLUK6?

Get It Right There is a belief that New York City apartment dwellers, including the most opulent occu pants of such abodes, live in comparatively cramped quar ters. This belief is definitely er roneous. As for example, take the great editor, Arthur Bris bane, who at one time lived in a Manhattan apartment that had 36 rooms, 18 baths and seven fireplaces. The living room was 60 feet long, 30 feet wide and 22 feet high. The living room windows, which looked out on Central Park, were 18 feet high and six feet wide. Horses and Women The sex appeal of a woman is greatly decreased by the wear ing of slacks. It is estimated her male attraction is at least 80 per cent less potent. It is per haps easier to handle housework when attired in slacks but the woman who wears pants around the house in the evening isn't strengthening her hold on her husband's affection. It is the women who stress the feminine in their attire who keep their husbands enchanted. Too many women laugh too loudly and too shrilly. They cackle.
