June a goodly number of children near the age when they can quit school legally will decide to leave. Already they may be thinking of doing 60. Between now and next June will be a strategic period for them. Among these children are those who have been lagging at school, especially in reading; some of them, however, may be doing average or better than average schoolwork, but dislike the effort and conformities re quired at school, A few. may be sure they can find a job. Then parents may be indiffer- ent, or suppose they can do nothing about the matter; some cannot; many others could. INSPIRATION HELPS There may be no one in the immediate family or among other relatives or neighbors to inspire these children to choose to continue at school, Some of the parents may suppose that if the child strongly desires to quit, he wouldn't gain much by continuing in school. You and I have heard.some parents say 80. If your child has it in his mind to quit school as soon as the law allows him to do so, you may have been pleading with him to plod on at school. You may give him all of the best arguments which are grow- ing more convincing to you year by year, but the longer you re- peat these arguments the more sure he may be that his choice is best. BE FIRM If you still have the assur- ance you can do so, it may be better to quit pleading and arguing, and say to him, "You must go on to school." Unfor- tunately, you may not be able to say, "You must." He may know that you are not, that you have not been able to say, "you must" about anything for many years. In that event, you may have hope to go back with him sev- eral years to establish control of him, But far more parents have the resources now to say, "You must," than the number who suppose they have. In case you can find ways to keep your child in school now and after next June, you will want also to discover ways to help him enjoy more success at school, You might gain some help in this direction from his teachers, a guidance person, or the school principal. Also you might need added expert help. Furthermore, he needs you and others whom he respects to celebrate with him his smallest gains in school successes, USE ALL MEANS The chances are your child is a poor reader, Perhaps you can find help for him to read better or do better in any or all school subjects. You might decide to provide a tutor for him. As his school success is so important, you could afford to make al- most any financial sacrifice to this end or if you are affluent, no amount of money left him as inheritance could compare with lhis getting a better education, We all need to have concern about the many children. who don't have homes with ambi- tion for them and financial and cultural resources for helping them at school. In the mean- while let us neglect nothing that will help our own children to press on and get as much schooling as reasonably pos- sible, Refreshments were served by] . to face defeat.

I know how real it is because I married a man who fad the identical problem, When the minister finished the ceremony (this was 32 years ago) he said, ""cu may now kiss the bride." My groom turned to me and said 'Later, dear, I can't kiss you in front of my mother," The happiest days I knew were the eight months before my husband died, A psychiatric social worker had a long talk with him .and pointed out that the Bible says a man should put his, wife before his mother, He had never heard of this before, It changed our entire marriage relationship. I don't know if this letter makes sense to women who don't have the problem, but maybe it is worth printing for the benefit of young girls who are going with mama's boys-- Muskegon. Dear M.: The !etter from that young bride produced a surpris- ing number of responses simi- lar to yours. I learn from my readers every day that the "un- usual is often pretty common after all, Dear Ann Landers: Pop is 62 years old and has always en- joyed good health. Last year the doctor told him an infection in his system was caused by bad teeth and he urged Pop to see "la dentist. The dentist said Pop should have had his teeth extracted years ago so we finally talked him into doing it. Now we are having nothing but trouble.

Ben Carlton is a Class A mechanic, Works on cars all day. A good kind of job to have if you're buying a used car, But when Ben bought his Goodwill Used Car, did he go through the under-the-hood, up-on-the-hoist, kick- all-the-tires routine? Not a bit of it. He called his Good- will dealer. Asked the salesman to pick out a good, clean late model luxury car for about $1500 dollars. That was on a Thursday. The next Tuesday the salesman called Ben back. At lunchtime he went down to take a look. That night he picked up a 1960 Buick LeSabre that looked like it had never left the showroom floor, Along with a Gouuswil! Warranty. There's a moral to the Ben Carlton story.* People who know cars know that when.it comes to used ones it's best to put yourself in the hands of an established, respected dealer. Like the man who sells Goodwill Used Cars. He has lots at stake in his community. He's in business to stay, He sells new Pontiacs, Buicks and Acadians, And the best used cars in town, *Based on an actual case history of a Goodwill customer.
