Ask Busy Person
To Get It Done

By ANN LANDERS
Dear Ann Landers: What can I
say to a good wife and mother
who never reads a newspaper be-
( cause she in
sists she doesn't
have the time?
The Red Chi
nese could be on
our porcn ana
she wouldn't
know it. We
have four chil
I dren under 10
years of age, a seven room house,
two dogs and a garden. She is
busy, Ann, and I would be the
last person in the world to deny
it, but all the same it's appalling
that this woman can't somehow
manage to devote 15 minutes of
her day to reading a newspaper.
1 made the mistake of bringing
up Ethel Kennedy yesterday and
she almost took my neaa on.
Please give me another approach.
' There must be a logical answer
that I can give her but I don't
know it. Help! Help'.-BRICK
WALL
Doar Brick: Everyone has
equal time no more, no less
Even the Kennedys get only 24
hours a day.
People who insist they can't
find time to do this or that should
be reminded that it's the division
of time and not a shortage
w h 1 c h determines what gels
done.
The cliche is accurate: "If you
want something done, ask a busy
person. He'll do it."
Dear Ann Landers: Six weeks
ago I sent for some merchandise
which was advertised in a repu
table national magazine.
I received a package with a let
ter attached saying they no long
er had the merchandise I had sent
for but that they were sending a
substitute of equal value and they
were sure I'd be pleased.
Well it was not of equal value,
it was plain junk and I was not
pleased. I mailed it back to them
and attached a note saying if they
could not send me what they had
advertised in the magazine to
please return my check for $5.
Four weeks have passed and
I have heard nothing. How do I
go about getting my money
back? I know they are not go
ing to get rich on my So but if
they can pull this on several
thousands suckers every month it
sure beats working. Thanks for
your help. DUMB CLUCK
Dear Cluck: Write a letter to
your postmaster and explain in
detail what happened. The post
Ipffice department will investigate
the outfit. If they are shady oper
ators they'll soon be out of busi
ness (and you just may get your
$5 back.)
Dear Ann Landers: Please pass
the word on to "Dim Hopes," the
poor kid who was getting head
aches trying to study in the kitch
en under a 60 watt bulb. At to
day's average rate of 3 cents per
kilowatt hour, the added cost of
burning a 100-watt bulb over that
of a 60-watter woujd be about Vs
of a cent per hour, or 80 hours for
the price of a candy bar. This is
hardly worth making a fuss about
And I'll bet that 60 watt bulb
is in a ceiling fixture when it
ought to be in a portable lamp
beside her bed or on her desk.
This means she is getting at the
reading level only 1-30 or 1-40
the amount of light out of the
bulb. If it were properly placed
she'd have no problem. A.M. P.
LIGHTING SPECIALIST FOR
G.E.
Dear A.M. P.: Thanks for your
explanation. I received many let
ters from lighting specialists
(some called themselves engi
neers) but yours was the easiest
to understand. I hope this will
help the young lady see the light.
