ANN LANDERS Proud Grandmother Becomes Obnoxious * Dear Ann Landers: Our card qjub meets twice a month. We are all retired women who have @ lot in common. :One woman who joined the club last year has become posi- t{vely obnoxious, She has held up the game for as long as 15 inutes at a time telling us lit- anecdotes about her grand- children. 'Mrs. Talkathon never fails to bring several posters and draw- ifigs that her grandchildren made in school. We have list- ened to their essays and poems, af naseum. Her stacks of snap- shots bore us silly. "We all have grandchildren, Ann, and we are just as proud of ours as she is of hers but we wouldn't think of imposing on folks the way she does. "What 'can be done to shut this woman up--short of telling her that we are weary of listening to her yak about her grandchil- dren?--broken -Dear Rec: At the next meet- ing announce that you have sdmething cute to tell about your grandchildren. Drag out ap interminable yarn--ad nau- seum. Be sure to pass around a' few dozen shapshots. "When you've finished, apolo- gize for taking so much time ahd suggest that the club adopt a: rule--no more talking about gfandchildren. Recommend the fine for breaking the rule $5. After that, if Mrs. Talk- athon insists on chattering about her grandchildren it's go- ing to be mighty expensive. "Dear Ann Landers: I was knocked out by a sentence which appeared in your column récently. Miss K.Q. asked--and leave a few around?" The lady's question implies all been drugged, slugged, hit in the head and carried off. Surely, Ann Landers, you don't buy that. I have raised both boys and girls and am now in my sev- enth year as a housemother on a midwestern campus. Today the girls are so aggressive that it makes me glad my sons are grown. There's a rule on this cam- pus that no girls are allowed above the first floor of a fra- ternity house. Nevertheless, every weekend I have to broom out at least four or five females who have pestered the boys to let them see their rooms. Yesterday an 18-year-old lad asked if I would go to his room and request that the girl leave. "T can't get her out," he said. So, please, Ann Landers, don't perpetuate the myth that the little boys are seducing the lit- tle girls left and right. Gener- ally it's mutual. Sometimes it's ithe girl who does the seducing. |--in communication Dear In: I appreciate your comments and would not deny that there is a large portion of truth in what you say. Instinc- tively, however, the male is the predator and no matter how wild some of the girls may seem, nature has decreed that the chaste will be chased--and sometimes caught. This is not my personal opinion, it is part lof the Great Design. Jo Aldwinckle, .

Richard De Vos and Jay Van Andel are two men who can answer "yes."' And the reason that they say so is because they built a big business from a small start in a basement. Six years ago, these two young men decided to pursue the dream of owning one's own business. Their idea was to establish a national network of sales representatives who would sell, direct to the consumer, a number of home care and per- sonal grooming items. They started on the proverbial shoestring--having a handful of salespeople, an office which consisted of a few desks and filing cabinets set up in the basement of their adjoining homes and a liquid detergent which didn't pollute water sup- plies, rivers and streams. To learn all they could about direct selling, De Vos and Van Andel went on the road to sell their products door - to - door Then they returned to their basement office to train and supervise salespeople, As their business expanded, they rented a warehouse and adaed a small factory to their basement office DID ALL JOBS 'In the early days, either Jay or I would go to the basement office, check an order, run down tn the warehouse. fill the ardor and place it in a customer's car trunk," said De Vos. Those early days have passed, however, and their American dream has come true, because in less than seven years the st Madel and Charm Schooi" PHONE 128-3441 FFURES.
