ANN LANDERS A Laugh A Day Keeps Doctor Away Dear Ann Landers: 1'd like to girls and two boys. Dear Ann Landers; I'm a girl, 17, who babysits because it is the only way I-can go to school and earn extra money. It is now 1:30 a.m. and I have been baby sitting for 15 hours. The woman who hired me called and pleaded with me to GREAT ANNUAL FALL GREAT ANNUAL FALL It wasn't thank Old Timer for one of the best laughs I've had in weeks. Anyone who would fill out a form for a driver's licénce and write beside the word "'sex'-- "occasionally" must have a ter- rific sense of humor, When I was in the hospital having my last baby I had to fill out an insurance form. There was a question worded something like this: 'Is this confinement the result of an accident."" I answered "Yes."' This reply provided many :peo- ple in the office with the best laugh of the day. I come from a family of kid- ders and I realize how fortunate I was to grow up in a climate of good humor. Life 'can be pretty grim and a laugh can be a wonderful release for tension.| I've tried to raise my children| to appreciate the value of hu-| come right over. (This was yes- easy.

We raised three THE STARS SAY FOR TOMORROW Stress a down-to-earth atti- tude now. Do not become dis- couraged over minor obstacles, but take the long-range view in all activities. If projects are truly worthwhile, slight set- backs will not deter you from completing them. P. m. influ- ences will be excellent for ro-' mance. FOR THE BIRTHDAY If tomorrow is your birthday, your horoscope indicates that, y. of the immediate present, it ould be advisable to lay as firm a foundation as possible for job and financial advance- ment. Do not expect immediate returns, however. Not until laie December will you~ note "any marked uptrend along these lines, but a fine cycle, begin- ning then, will last through mid- February. It will be important for you to start planning now, however, so that you can take advantage of later opportunities as they arise. Next good pe- riods for monetary matters: June and the period between late August through September. It will be important, however, | that you avoid extravagance and keep out of all speculative ventures during November and the first two weeks of Decem- ber; also during the first two weeks of April. Best periods for occupational and business inter- ests: Late January and early February, June, August and September. Also, an unusual business transaction in mid- May could prove extremely profitable. Domestic concerns will be governed by fine aspects dur- ing most of the year ahead, but be alert to possible periods of stress in early March and early June. You can ward these off by going out of your way to avoid friction, some of which is often caused by the Libran's innate tendency 'n he willed self by letting children know they|she went away for a week?
