Bryiiig Undies Make Hubby 31 ml By ANN LANDERS '" Dear Ann Landers: My wife has a utility room with an auto matic washer and dryer. She also has a backyard with clothes lines if she wants to use them. Yet she insists the only place she can bans her VWk ' 9i,p stockings, sir- ..dies, bras and slips is over the shower rod in our bathroom. When I come from work and ,want to shower I'm forced to hack my way through a jungle of drip- -". ping unmentionables. I yield to no man in my admiration for these garments, when filled, but the sight of soggy lingerie puts me in a fighting mood. If you can give me one good. Box Office OPENS WEDNESDAY 4:00 P.M.

Dear Ann: Regarding Ihe letter from the boss who was burned up Realise only a few employes thanked him for the turkeys he gave them for Christmas: He must be very unimaginallve If he has to be thanked verbally. Can't he picture his browned and ! honored birds the center of at traction on table after table, with such comments as "Wasn't that nice of Mr. X?"

Modern education many limes neglects the individ ual student. This is not necessar ily the fault of the schools.

Two Easy Systems After learning to be neat and orderly, Jimmy started turning out perfect papers in school We simply cannot stress too strongly the importance of details. A small error, a small ommission can destroy completely the effect of a large amount of otherwise flawless work. You should do these tilings as a matter of course: 1. Arrange your work neatly 2. Use the correct symbols. 3. Make sure that plus and minus signs, equal signs, fraction for rapid grading. All tests cannot be of this type, however, and when the student faces new situations. he is in trouble. Cood scholarship becomes impossible.

They wound up in jail Instead. State police commandeered n boat and stopped the four as they drifted down toward the 50-foot-hiph falls in a rubber raft. The police nabbed them 200 yards from the falls, and hustled them off to Jail, where they were booked on n chaise of ' reckless boating. Bail Was set at S250 each. Tlie four said that because the river was swollen by flood waters they thought they could escape the rocks in the falls. Police said, however, they thought the young men would be thrown to their deaths in the tur-! bulence. Tlie young men had notified some newspapers and radio sta tions, then tied themselves into tlie raft and set off from Uic mouth of the Tualatin River. A number of spectators lined the river bank. The four were booked as Gordon Nichols and Pencil McNiece, both 21, and Douglas Wayne Kelly and Fred Albert Hagedorn, both IB. All said they were from Oregon City. lines, exponents, and other marks are neatly and correctly placed. 4. Make sure that everything you write on the paper is actually ti-ue. 5. Do scratch work on a separ-i ate piece of paper so that youi mind is not distracted from the actual steps of the problem. As you get into more advanced work, you will iind that problems longer can be solved at a glance. Then you must make use of a special technique. It is based on this fact: Nearly all complex problems in math can be solved piece by piece. Iet s inn through the steps that will help you. 1. Write the problem correctly on the paper. 2. Look at the problem, search ing for some small part of it which you know how to simplify. 3. Simplify it. I 4. Rewrite the problem with that work shown on it 5. Now look at the problem again. Is there another little part of the problem you can deal with? Step at a Time Usually there is. This process normally results in the solution of very complicated problems without a single complicated move on your part. Superior and gifted students too often are able to solve simple problems without the use of these techniques. They are shocked when their grades suddenly drop from "As" to "Cs" or lower when they reach eollege!evel math courses. Ironicallv, their bright ness is a curse to them until they " discover or are shown the simple learning processes which will per mit them to do the work of which they are capable. Millions ot boys and girls m public schools and colleges do not know how to solve problems. They are the sad victims ol an age that knows how to measure 1-100.- 000th of an inch but neglects to tell boys and girls how to arrange numbers in a neat and orderly column. But now you know a secret that can help you avoid the pit falls which, await the careless anil unwary. in the next chapter we art- going to tell you rome more fAGB'l CJtA. t HERALD' AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, ; Tuesday, February U, 19U Tax Bilfdraws Mixed Reactions SALEM (AP) A bill lo permit! encourage better use of the land. ment of less valuable hilly and special assessment for subur-l -The time has come," he said. rocky land. ban land used for agriculture," mrnirler a Dhilosoohv of land! Merle Griffin, of the Association drew mixed reaction Monday at a House Taxation Committee hearing. Rep. Victor Atiyeh, R-Portland, said the hill's purpose is to main tain large green belt areas in ur ban regions, and to provide ta: relief for farmers in urban areas. Rep. R. R. Raymond,' R-Helix. questioned a provision that would require a farmer to pay the dif ference between farm land taxes and suburban taxes for the past seven years if he decided to use his property for purposes other than farming. Atiyeh explained that the farmer is not forced to take the lower rate. Atiyeh said the aim of tb measure is to give needed tax relief, but at the same time to prevent speculators who plan to subdivide the land from taking advantage of it. Mike Kalz, committee consult ant, said the bill could not become law unless the Senate passes a companion bill outlining agncul tural zoning. James Weaver, secretary of Ihe Agriculture interim committee that drafted the bill, said it would use.
