HERALD A.VD NEWS, Klamath Falli, Or. Girl Visits Bachelor Dressed For Occasion By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: I'm not a prude, nor am I the type to poke my nose into other peo- Tuesday, April !. 1963 PAGE J-A pie's business but 1 val ue your opinion and would like your views. ' A friend of mine who is sin gle and in her middle 30s has her own apart ment. This friend is acquainted with a rather attractive gentle man about 40. He is a bachelor and has an apartment in the same building. I live in the building, too down the hall from the gentleman. The other evening 1 came home later than usual about 11 p.m. I was shocked to see this wom an, dressed for bed, nightgown, bathrobe, and slippers, just about to enter the man's apartment. Without the slightest hint of embarrassment she greeted me warmly and announced. "My TV broke down and Reginald invited me down to see the late movie." This struck me as indecent. Or am I living in THE DARK AGES? Dear Ages: In our society, most people dress for the occa sion. When one wears a ski suit folks just naturally assume he is going skiing, A person in shoul der pads and shin guards looks ready for ice hockey. Your friend used poor judg ment. Dear Ann Landers: 1 married a widow three years ago. My wife passed away in 1956, the same year her husband died. My own two sons have gradu ated from college and are on their own. My wife's two sons are 11 and 14 years of age. I love her boys as much as I love my own. They are devoted to me and we have a wonderful relation ship. 1 want to adopt my wile's sons legally and change their name to mine. My wife is against it because she's afraid her former father-in-law will cut the boys out of his will if they do not carry on his family name. (They are the last of his heirs. I While there is considerable wealth there I don't feel this is important. I am well able to sup port these boys, educate them and do all the necessary things. My pride is involved. What do you say? DAD Dear Dad: Your sons will car rv on vour family name. II is not unreasonable or this grand father to want his son's boys to carry on his family name. L'nlecv the bovs express a strong desire to have their names changed, I recommend that you disregard the financial advan tages and respect the old gentle man's wishes. Dear Ann Landers: My hus band and I are fond of Mr. and Mrs. X. They are a working cou ple, as we are, and often the four of us have dinner together. Mrs. X has a habit which 1 find embarrassing. My husband says it's ridiculous for me to have any feelings one way or the other. Mrs. X has a small appetite. She often asks the waiter or wait ress to put her leftover meat in a bag "for the dog." My husband and I know they have no dog. Is this a cheap trick or not? NEW YORKER Dear New Yorker: 1 am al ternately saddened and sickened at the thought of the tons of edible food that wind up in Ameri can garbage pails. Taking home uneaten food from the restaurant makes a great deal of sense. The' only thing that does not make sense is the invention of the dog. Whv is Mrs. X defensive The waiter or waitress couldn't care less. oinniuntiu tf (Calendar Tl'ESDAY WOTM, Chapter 467. 8 p.m.. homemaking chapter ni'jht with nrollment, Moose Home.

D. iBabc' Tavlor, Siskiyou County assessur, to try to resolve the tax re-evalu-ation of land in the Mount Shasta area. Accompanying Taylor were appraisers Gerald DeRoso and Fred Fleck of the Yrcka office. All three men joined in trying to explain the tax struc ture and policies to the property owners. Dr. Donald Ratley declared ev ery time he had his land ap praised it went up, finally reach ing a tax increase of 1.820 per cent from 1961. He wanted to know why uncleared, unimproved land on Baker Road should be appraised at $675 an acre, while right next to it the land cleared, fenced, and with a road was ap praised at $534. He protested that the assessment was not equitable. Ratley said land 60 feet from his was appraised at $237 an acre, while identical land belonging to him was appraised at $2,000. In three appraisals of $49,000, $45,0110 and $39,445.71, by a real estate firm, state inheritance appraiser, and a bank, he finds the county appraisal of $70,0110 on the same land out of line by contrast. Dr. Hugh Fate represented the properly owners. He said t h e evaluation of his land went up 300 per cent and the property was taxed on improvements and land as subdivision property, which he says it is not. He also stated he would like lo sec the code that makes the law manda tory that taxes not he refunded and suggested an audit lo ascer tain why this part of the county spent three times as much in 1962 as in 1960. Taylor declared the law and appraisal practices stipulate the highest and best use of land, and said the grand jury's report in licated an honest and sincere cf tort is being mae by the asses sor's office. He asked the group. "Why didn't you help me fight the legal battle on the appraisal law six years ago?" He also advised the group, upon question ing from the lloor, that property i f owners come to his oflice to ap lv? It was pointed out that the ap praisals were made on the market value. There arc 20,000 parcels of real properly in Siskiyou County and seven appraisers. Also the taxpayers were told they could protest to the Board of Equal ization. In prepared literature, Taylor explained the laws governing the administration of the property tax are established on a statewide basis by the California State Leg islature, pursuant lo the provi sion of the stale constitution. The law provides that the assessor deliver the assement roll to the Board of Supcrviors on or be fore the first Monday in July and appeals should be made be fore that date for consideration. Another meeting is scheduled for April 11 at 7 p.m. in the Sisson Elementary gym, G 1 1 Graves, Charles Holcomb, and John Facchin were appointed to organize the meeting.
