. Dear Ann Landen: I'm the
lather of five children. Hy wife
thinki children should be forced
to eat every
thing that U
put on the ta
ble. When the
platters are
passed If the
take a helping
01 everything
offered my wife puts it on their
plates.
If they don't clean their plates
she makes them sit at the table,
sometimes for as long as two
hours. Dinner time at our house
Is getting to be a nightmare. The
kids start to cry the minute they
sit down at the table. Sometimes
I get so upset I can't eat a bite.
My wife says her brother was
finicky eater and she's going to
see to it that HER kids grow up
to like everything. Please tell me
if she's right or wrong. NERV
OUS DAD
Dear Dad: Finicky eaters are
nuisance but your wife's ap
proach couldn't be worse. Forc
ing toed oa children Is a way
ta get them to like St. It's
sure device for getting Ihem to
hate tt.
Urge your wife to get prefes
sioaal guidance at once. Any doc
tor will toll her she's raising her
children to despise food and meal
time.
Dear Ann Landers: I'm a di
vorced woman who has been go
ing with a man for three years.
For two years I was ignorant
about his church and believed him
when he said we couldn't be mar
ried in his church because it didn't
recognize my first marriage. Then
ha decided his mother would not
accept me regardless.
He has stood me up on dates
and lied about where he had been.
I've loaned him several hundred
dollars and he has made no effort
to repay me. I have a hunch I've
been subsidizing a secret romance
between him and a young car
hop but he denies everything.
children do not1 Right now I'm on nerve pills and
under a doctor's care.
I need advice but don't tell me
to stop seeing him. I love the
louse, and there will never be
anyone else for me. Please give
me some help. RUTH
Dear Ruth: I can't help you.
Yon won't let me. The only tolii
Uoa to your problem Is to break
up with the man, but you don't
want to. He has all the qualities
of a dog except loyalty. And you
enjoy the abuse.
Dismantling
Of Mill Set
DUNSMUIR Ralph L. Smith
Lumber' Company employes at
the Castclla sawmill have been
notified that the mill will close
about Dec. 23 and dismantling
operations will begin early next
year.
This closure affects 22 employes,
most of them residents of Castej
la.The milt has been in opera
tion since 1839, the last of several
sawmill operations in Castella.
No reason was given by Smith
company management for ceas
ing production at Castella. Lack
of timber and the fact that the
plant was too small for reprocess'
ing operations may have been
contributing factors.
Job prospects for the Jl men
now employed by the mill Jo not
; seem too encouraging at present.
If , the lumber market improves
in the spring, the company will
attempt to place them at the mill
at Mount Shasta or the one at
Anderson, a company announce'
ment said. ,
Dear Ann Landers: My mother
reads your column every day and
so do I. Please print this for both
of us. I am IS and have never
had a date but I talk about boys
a lot. Does this mean I am boy
crazy? My mother hears me talk
on the telephone and then starts
with the boy-crazy bit. Please give
us your opinion NORMAL I
THINK .
Dear Normal-! THINK, TOO:
A 15-year-old gal who has never
a date is not boy-crazy If
she merely talks about boys, la-
iereat in the male animal Is par
for the course at IS.
Dear Ann Landers: You'll prob
ably think I'm silly but I would
like a little advice on a trivial
matter. I'm on the lyin' side of
40, considered attractive and most
people think I'm about 33. My
hair is starting to turn gray and
I abhor the thought of dyeing it.
Is there anything else that can
be done with gray hair? PHYL1S
Dear Phylist Yes. Yoa can ad'
mire It.

of six pups with a total weight of
17 ounces. The little dog has had
17 pups in 18 months.
PORTLAND (AP)-Financing a
proposed Columbia River bridge
between Astoria, Ore., andfeg
ler. Wash., is likely to run into
trouble in at least the Oregon
Legislature, interim subcommittee
members said at a meeting here
Monday.
The bridge would have an annual
deficit of $525,000 for 30 years,
subcommittee members were
told, and the question at the meet
ing was who would pay it. .
Three fourths of the population
adjacent to the bridge approaches
is in Oregon. Washington repre
sentatives suggested this be the
basis for a 75-25 per cent split
of toe deficit with Oregon paying
the larger amount
Sen. Anthony YturrI, Romano,
chairman of the Oregon Interim
Subcommittee on Highways, said
the legislature could be expected
to balk at that. However, he said,
Oreflon now provides an annual
subsidy of more than $100,000 for
the ferries operating between As
toria and Megler, and this pro
vides a basis for considering payments.
Sen. Robert C. Bailey, South
Bend, Wash., said his state likely
would approve subsidy payments
of not more than $200,000 annually
with the affected counties paying
a substantial part.
Total cost of the bridge is esti
mated at $23.4 million.
