TEETH STOLEN New Bedford, Mass. - (UI'll -Vincent Caffcrty told police Monday someone stole a sot of teeth worth $400 from his car, but he had no trouble eating. The teeth belonged lo a whale. Wallace G She ought lo make her days add up to something. Cynthia G. I worked hard all my life. Now it's playlime for me! Wallace G We moved to this suburb a year ago. My wife immediately fell in with the wrong crowd of women. These are the pleasure-seekers, the card players, the mati nee hounds, the lunchdaters. With no special cause in life, they're just dedicated to hav ing a good time. If I ever get home during the after noon, for example, I know Cynthia will be out with the girls, or else the girls will be in our home enjoying a kaffceklatch and gossiping about the ones who aren't there. I What worries me is that this isn't the real Cynthia. She hated to waste time, used to make dresses for her nieces in the evening after work or take on an extra part-time job selling gifts around Christ mas and other peak seasons. Before she starts to hate her self, I'd like her to get in terested in some form of use ful volunteer work. My part ner's wife is trying to sign her up to help children with their homework. Cynthia G. All my life I worked hard in the city, first to support myself and then to help my husband in business. When we were able to buy this house, I was ready to call it the end of my struggle. Now I want to make up for lost lime and see how the other half lives the house wives and matrons who just keep house and are free to flit about. Just as I concentrated on improving each ."shining hour," like that little busy bee in the rhyme, now I feel like forgetting about time and donating my days to my friends. They're showing me the things I missed, the fun from wonderful friendships and woman-to-woman talk. I'd be useless doing that vol unteer work Wally's urging on me. His partner's wife is an intellectual the brainy type. I'm not smart in that way. I can't help kids with their compositions and read ing. I'd only get them mixed up. Besides, I'm far from be ing "played out" yet. fc'Ji sum, met, ntraar! ! ! ! ton miss he MERCURY DEALERS -t TK ''A, Tip's Gold 111 Your Old car! msm, s J "if r Vi.

The Council: Wally may be comforted by a law of nature we can cite for him here: To ever action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Cynthia worked perhaps too hard, and so now she may hp nlavine too hard. When the reaction is spent, she'll I jjj'J probably stop long enough to r yl see where she's been and where she's headed. The pur suit of vacuity loses its at tractiveness to people of con science, no matter how in sistently they defend their right to be tres gai. Give Cyn thia another year for dilet tanting. Do you want lo bet she'll have a couple of "causes," fine one, under her hat by then? One of the most active do good groups, the Lila Motley Club, grew from a circle of . f:Jm friends who liked to play cards with each other. It was but a short step from having fun among themselves to shar ing their blessings with those who had few. Inspired by their late namesake, who worked out programs to help needy individuals, the club now raises millions of dollars for such community bonanzas as X-ray therapy clinics, and whole wings of hospitals. So Wallace's indictment of Cyn thia's pals may be unjust. Who says they're the "wrong" crowd? They may be exactly the l'ght crowd to get things done, even though they ac company their social service with pleasurable excursions for themselves. Don't let the giggles and the flowered hats fool you, Wally. Many of these gals work as hard as the timeclock punchers with out the groans. When Cynthia's ready to holler "Enough!" she needn't farm herself out to Mrs. Part ner, as Wally suggests she do. If her crowd hasn't come up with a community need it would like to espouse, she can have her pick of organizations which are crying for hep, alert and upbeat women like herself. Want lo help keep a motherless, home together? Tell your social service or ganziation. Want to take chil dren on outings their parents never take them on? Become a "school volunteer" in the nearest junior high. Wallace isn't being a blue nose in urging Cynthia to use part of her new leisure lo pay her "rent" as a member of the community, lie's being j fc nciptui. Cynthia's hell - for-leather search for happiness is too direct lo succeed.
