If Housewives Were Paid,
They'd All Hire Maids

“1 think you're probably in a rut."’

DEAR ABBY: That kid who sasaed hia mother when she
told him to take hie bike out of the street, or she wouldn't
buy him another one, needs a whipping. That's what'l
‘would geé, and I wouldn't be allowed to ride my bike for a
week. [ know, because it happened to me. .

PAUL J. (AGE 11)

DEAR ABBY: You were right in advising GETS LOST A
- LOT not to be ashamed, that some of our brainiest peaple
get lost a lot I wonder, however, if you are aware that those
of us who have difficulty in remembering directions could be”
victims of “dyslexia” — a condition which has nothing todo
with intelligence. ~ . *
la addition io losing our way, we have difficulties
learning to read, to apell and to do the simplest
math. Einstein, Edison and Nelson Rockéfeller were
dyslexic, There is no known cure, although early diagnosis’
is helpful in giving s child special training eo he can learn to
cope with his condition.
I understand this rons in families.
. ALSO GETS LOST A LOT

DEAR ALSO: My twin and I were not dyslexic, bat
we got lost more than any two people we knew. Why?
Because when directions were being given, we were
always talking instead of Hatening.

CROSSWORD) |

DEAR ABBY: ANONYMOUS MOM needs to learn a few:
things, She scolded her son for leaving bis bike in the:
middle of the street, saying, “If it gets atolen, I'm not buying
you another one.” Then her amart-mouthed kid shot back,
“You didn’t buy me the first one —Daddy did?” i

She said that made her realize that because she wasn't a
wage earner, she had net contributed much to the house-
hold. :

Well, according to Family Circle magazine, the value of
the average full-time homemakers work is $793.79 a week —
or $41,000 a year! , us

The magazine stated that the average homemaker
performs at least 22 separate functions with child care being
the function that takes the most Hime — 154 hours a week on
the average. (At a token $1 an hour, this would amount
over $9,000 a year.) . , :

The seven or more hoors a woman spends cleaning house,
at a minimum $1.21 an hour, adds up to at least $22 2 week:
13 hours as a cook ai $4.75 an hour is another $62 a week.
The three hours a week (average) that « wife spende acting

as a maid o: hostess for her husband, at $20 an hour, adds :
if
e

another $60 to her “wage bill,” notes the magazine -

’ DEAR ELIZABETH: Thanks. And if the magazine |
didn’t figure in the other duties performed by mtdther .
