get right on into town, we have a lot of shopping to do. You have enough money, don't you"?

"Yes, but

"That's fine, because I'll need some real hair, and I'll have to try to get some decent shoes on those bare feet, too. Come on, pick up the box and let's go!"

And as they walked off up the beach, their shadow danced before them, long, slim and solitary.

BRIGHT IDEA

One of our girls recently noted a column by Ann Landers in her local newspaper. It involved a wife whose husband was a TV. She wrote telling about the situation and asking advice. Ann Landers answered her in an unusually sympathetic way. Anyway this reader (and I must apologize for not being able to lay hands on that letter at the moment of writing this to give cre- dit for the idea) suggested that it would be a worthwhile effort if a group of TVs from different areas to write to Ann Landers telling her that they (the writers) were them- selves TVs and that the problem of non-understanding wives was a big one; that TVism is not an isolated or infrequent pattern; and that her manner of replying to the wife undoubtedly helped to cement the marriage, and thanking her for her sympathetic treatment of the

matter.

If a group of us were to write such letters it would surprise Ann Landers and her staff no end and make them even more aware of the field than they were before. I shall send the Wives Book to her and hope this will aid her in counseling others. Will you take a moment off to add your bit? Her column appears in many papers and you can send it to anyone of them. I got clippings from the Schenectady Gazette and Detroit Free Press. Write it to her care of them if her column doesn't appear in your local papers.
