PAGE 10 TERRACE HERALD, TERRACE, B.C, THURSDAY, MAY. 20, 197] Em DEAR ANN LANDERS: A. member of our family who is very wealthy bas certain areas of cheapness well known to all us us. Last year our son was married. This relative said she knew just the right wedding present but it would have to be Obtained from an antique dealer on her next trip abroad. Three weeks ago the wedding gift arrived from Paris, Attached to the gift was a handwritten note from the relative stating that the gift was a rare find, dating back to the 18th Century “although it isn’t signed.” = * The bride's brother is associated with the art museum in Chicago which everyone knows is one of the world’s finest. He examined the gift and declared it a fake. Just to make sure, he sffered to have it examined vy a friend who is an established authority on that period, Yesterday we heard the evaluation, The piece is not authentic, There is a chance, Ann that the relative paid a big price for it. If so should she be told she was rooked? The bride would like your opinion. — Yonkers. . DEAR YONK: The bride should say “thank you"? and nothing more, DEAR ANN LANDERS: Last May my hushand asked me if he could wear one of my housedresses while painting the kitchen. He said it would be more comfortable, I said “0K,” He did look awfully cute and I told him so, Ever since that time he has been wearing my dresses and wigs and Makeup when we are alone. He has asked me to call him Linda when we “play girl friends,” as he calls it. I can truthfully say I don't mind. The only thing that bothers me is that he is prettier than I am. If we went out in public together he would get more whistles. Yesterday I read | an article on sex deviation. it said men who enjoy dressing up in women’s clothes are tran- svestites. I do not consider my husband abnormal, He is very manly in every way. He just happens to enjoy playing this little game. Is there anything wrong with it? ['d like your opinion — Happy Woman Who Loves Her Husband. DEAR WOMAN: My opinion is of no consequence. The only thing that matters is what you think, and apparently you think it is just fine: DEAR ANN LANDERS: May I say a word to the teen-ager who was sO miserable because her feet were too big? Little does she know. I am a gir] of medium height and I ako wear a sizenine shoe, I am the luckiest one in our family. My three brothers have an or. thopedic disease called Char- cot-Marie-Tooth Atrophy, Each has had a series of Operations to correct this problem and they all have spent several summer vacations in the hospital. Your advice couldn't have been better. (You told‘ ‘Size Nine” to go visit an orthopedic hospital or a Home for Crippled Children.) When I first visited my brothers in the hospital, I realized how fortunate I was. [ saw children there with no feet —and no legs. Today the styles are so clunky I have no trouble finding fashionable shoes that fit, Furthermore, most girls have big feet today because they go barefoot a lot. So, please tell yOur readers that big feet are the rule rather than the ex- ception these days, and nothing to be ashamed of. Look at the model Verushka. She wears a size twelve and she’s a great beauty. — Shoe On A Different Foot DEAR SHOE: Verushka isn’t the only one, CENTENNIAL MEMO -- Sandon was incorporated in 1898" and the main street was built over a mountain stream.
