Dear Pam:
   My mother told me not to spend more than a dollar for presents for my girlfriends. How can I make her understand that it is impossible to buy anything decent for a dollar?
                     Worried.
Dear Worried:
   You are so wrong. There are many things you can buy or make for a dollar. You'll find some suggestions in the Kilt Christmas supplement. Use your imagination. And remember, Christmas is a time of the spirit - not the pocketbook.

Dear Pam:
   My boy friend always gives me expensive presents and I would like to do the same for him. But if I do I won't have anything left for my family. What shall I do?

Dear Pinching Penny:
   Grow up. At this stage in life, family should come first. Besides, it is poor taste for someone your age to give expensive presents. Time enough for that when you, not Papa, is out earning the cold and slippery cash.
   Buy your friend an inexpensive reminder that you care for him. And don't expect anything more in return.

Dear Pam:
My problem is homework. I am very active in all church activities, Girl Scouts and Tri-Hi-Y. The only night I have free is Friday night. Mom says I can't go to any parties until all my homework is done, and I simply can't find time to do it.

Dear Timeless Teresa:
You are facing a problem that will be with you for the rest of your life - the need to choose between a wide variety of activities and your responsibilities. The wise person is constantly re-evaluating these two elements.
First you must think honestly about your responsibilities, and the time you need to which to fulfill them. In the time you have left, try to follow the activities that are most rewarding to you personally.
Ask your parents to help you plan a well rounded schedule.

     We must not fall behind the Russians any more than we have. If we do, we may lose all that is dear to us - our freedom and our democratic form of government. Russia may be capable of conquering us not later than 1975. Can you imagine the United States a member of the Soviet Union?
     Let's get on the ball and see if we can't set the example by working harder and learning more and still remaining a democratic country with a democratic school system.
