Thus he learned at first hand the tortuous road over Hazclview Summit, the route which now is immeasureably eased by con struction of the bore which bears his name. The legislator became an early backer of a tunnel to eliminate die summit's 128 curves and hair pin switchbacks, and to make Highway 190passable in s n o w y weather. Engineers said it couldn t be done. But Senator Col lier persisted, and dn 1955 the State Public Works Department or dered a feasibility survey made. At last the engineers agreed with the Senator. Five years uilcr, funds were appropriated and work began. In 1959, an Oregon newspaper tlie Illinois Valley News editor ialized that tile tunnel should be named for Senator Collier.

By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: Since you seem to have a mature and sen sible approach to funerals for t pets I would . like your advice on a problem tliat came up just this week My widowed mother lives alone in a large city. Her sole companion is my childhood pet, a rat terrier named Miss Florabelle. A few days ago I received a long let ter from mother saying that Miss Florabelle is almost blind and she is so feeble she can scarcely walk. Tlie vet says she could go any time. Mother says she can't bear the thought of Miss Florabelle being hauled away by the garbage man. She wants me to bury her in my backyard. She closed with, "If you agree, son, I will be vastly relieved. I'll send Miss Flora belle's remains to you air mail in a suitcase." I loved that dog, Ann, but the whole thing gives me the creeps. Please tell me what to do. BEWILDERED Dear Bewildered: 11 is against the law in send dead dogs in the mail. Tell your mother that when Miss Florabelle goes to her eter nal rest, she should call the hu mane society. They will come and get her and see to it that she has the kind ot burial an animal should have. Dear Ann Landers: Together with other clergymen, I personal ly appreciate the sound and o!ten humorous advice you give to those who seek help. 1 appreciate, too, that you frequently refer your readers to professional coun selors. This is what I am writing about. Recently a woman wrote: "I have a delicate problem. I can't discuss it with our clergyman doctor because we are well known in tlie community and if this story ever got out my hus band would be iurious." Perhaps the writer had had an unfortunate experience with a counselor who was not discreet, but every professional person of my acquaintance guards all con fidences as a sacred trust. Your readers should be told that ethical counselors may not be compelled even by law to re late confidences, unless the per son who revealed those confi dences gives his consent. I do hope you will print this letter so your readers will feel completely comfortable when they seek professional counseling. BATTLE CREEK PASTOR Dear Pastor: Many thanks for writing. I would like to add that many readers to whom I have suggested prole&slonal counseling have written back to express their deep appreciation. Dear Ann Landers: We built a lovclv new house two years ago. I work full lime at an office job and have no help at home. When the house w as brand new we had a big party and invited all our relatives and friends. My father-in-law asked if could show his paintings at that time and offered to present the paintings to us as a gift. I said "ruie, and handed him the house key so he could hang the pictures for the big event. After two years he still has the key and our home has been turned into a gallery for anyone he wishes to drag through. He usually phones and announces, "The Thundering Herd is on the way" then hangs up. I am fed up with all sorts o: people tracking through our house. My husband says it would be rude and hurtful to tell the old gentleman to return the key and slop bringing people over. What should we do about this? MRS. WALKED ALL OVER Dear Mrs.: It Is your husband's responsibility to tell his father the open house Is over. He should encourage hit father to take the pointings back since obviously the old gentleman Is pnpud of his art and wishes to continue tn show it. To learn the knack of feeling comfortable with the opposite sex, send lor Ann Lanaers dook lct. "How To Be Date Bait," en closing with your request 20 cents coin and a long, self-ad dressed, stamped envelope. Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her in care of this newspaper enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope.
