Columnist Another study has been done to prove that women earn less money than men Instead of spending money on countless studies to prove the obvious why not take those funds and raise a few female salaries Nothing brings home the fact that this Is an unfair world faster than watching a news item about starvation in Ethiopia which is sponsored by a diet soft drink commercial showing already slender folk exercising their little hearts out to lose an ounce or two Have you noticed that in this country the poor of course pay little or no tax as is only right But the rich seem to have that same privilege I don mind subsidizing the poor but I balk at paying more than some wealthy entrepreneur who has a battery of accountants to discover loop hole heaven Do you realize that at one time the mother who had to work outside of the home was pitied or thought to be selfish Now Just the reverse seems true It strange how thought processes change Children seem to automatically inherit genetically the raits you have that you do not care for The ones you would love to pass along seem to get lost along the way None of your children pick up your luxuriously curly hair but they all end up with your receding chin Elliott wrote lhat April Is the crudest month He must have visited Canada some lime is so We expect nothing but misery from January February and March but by April we begin
