I’ve noticed lately that everything is farther away than it used to be. It’s even twice as far to the corner — and they have added a hill! T’ve given up running for the bus; it leaves earlier than it used to. It seems to me they are making the stairs steeper than in the old days, and have you noticed the smaller print the news- papers are now using? And there’s no sense in asking anyone to read aloud anymore, as every- one speaks in such a low voice, I can hardly hear the m. The material in dresses is so skimpy now — especially around the waist and hips — it’s almost impossible to reach one’s shoelaces! Also, the sizes don’t run the way they used to. The 12’s and 14’s are so much smaller. Even people are changing. They are so much younger than they used to be when I was their age. On the other hand, people my own age are Dear. Aly so much older than I am. I ran into an old classmate of mine the other day, and she had aged so much, she didn’t recognize me! I got to thinking about my poor dear friend while I was combing my hair this morning, and in so an I glanced at my own reflec- Really now — they don’t even make good mirrors like they used to! Rose la monica Phillipsburg, N.J. DEAR ROSE: Beautiful! It’s healthy to accept with good humor the fact that we can’t kid Mother Nature — nor can we fool Father ~ A Christmas Shopping Invitation ...

We were shocked to learn it revealed cervical cancer. It was frightening, but Sara was treated, and her checkups since then show no recurrence. Abby, she was fortunate! Many women do not have Pap tests because they think they are “too young” or are not sex- ually active — but they do need a Pap test. If Sara had not had this test, I shudder to think what would have become of her. Please, Abby, urge young women to have Pap tests regularly. A Kentucky reader DEAR READER: Your mes- sage is well worth space in my col- umn. A Pap test should be a routine part of a gynecological examina- tion. A woman’s physical examina- tion is incomplete without it. DEAR ABBY: We hear about how terrible teen-agers are, but I want to share what I saw this after- While looking for some greeting cards, I noticed two boys about 14 or 15 going through the “cards for all occasions.” One boy asked his friend, “What kind of card are you looking for?” The friend replied, “T want to get a card for py mom.” The first boy asked, “How come? It’s not Mother’s Day.” “My mom is having a bad day,” his friend replied, “and I want to find something to cheer her up. Abby, I could have hugged that kid! He must have been raised by someone very special to have tumed out that way. A.L. Reeves Brighton, Mich. DEAR A.L.: What a heartwarm- ing scene you observed. You’re right; children learn compassion and sensitivity at their mother’s (or father’s) knee.
