Every year our country and several others of our allies spend millions of dollars on intelligence activities in an attempt to figure out what is going on behind the Iron curtain and each year your paper and an to provide a great Deal of information free of charge to the Kab and Cru. What kind of information am i talking about information on weapons systems such As . Tac fire and smart bombs just to name a few and order of Battle information such As where the new Patriot battalion is located which units Are involved in exercises and so on. Such information May appear to be innocent but such innocent information will get a lot of us killed if it in t curtailed.

Certainly it is not saying much for us when we arc virtually standing before the soviets naked because of Loose lips and poor decisions. Why Don t we try to get out of these Nasty habits and devote a Little More time and common sense to Security surely no on believes that the soviets Are so generous with information of a military manner such As i have addressed.

Two years ago i went Back to work As a private Secretary. After 16 years in Home with the Chil Dren i Felt like rip Van Winkle. I could t believe How much things have changed. The first year Back 1 did t know what to give my Boss for Christmas so i asked the other sir rotaries. Hit they were giving their Bosses. Most stayed with food items desk accessories and books. Their Bosses gave them handbags gift certificates and expensive perfume. I gave my Boss a Selec Tion of gourmet cheeses. He gave me a Large bottle of liquid detergent wrapped in a Kitchen apron. Last Christmas 1 gave him an expensive leather bound first edition. He gave me a Jar of Honey. It was so old in had or  . 1 love my Job. It s five minutes from Home and the hours and salary arc Good. My Boss is pleasant but his cheapness  me. Should i continue to give him Nice pre sents knowing 1 will receive junk in return slow Durn in Kansas dear Burn put a reminder on Jour Calendar Tor dec. 2. On that Day Ell the Boss our Christmas gift to him will by a donation to the salvation army in his name and you Hope be will give you the same. If he gives you a moldy Fruitcake throw it of have a Good laugh and write a cordial thank you note. Dear Ann Landers about two years ago i lost my precious wife of 35 years after a Long valiant Bat the against cancer. For six months i was desolate. I was sure i could never be Happy again. About that time my wife s brother icel his wife and they were divorced. He had taken up with a woman Young enough to be his daughter and there was a lot of ugly talk about it. His wife Flo and i attended the same Church. I saw her at social functions for about a year and admired the Way she handled her problem. Eventually we began to Date and discovered we were wonderfully compatible and brightened each other s lives. Last week 1 asked Flo to marry me and she said yes. Our friends her children and my wife s family arc thrilled that we have found happiness once again. My daughters arc horrified. They claim it would be incestuous if 1 married aunt Flo and that she took advantage of my vulnerability. Last week i got the ultimatum. If i marry his woman they will have nothing to do with me. I am beginning to question my own judgment. At 65 1 feel foolish writing to Ann Landers for advice but 1 am heart sick and confused. 1 need an opinion from someone who can View the situation objectively. . Dear . Tell your daughters they Are invited to the wedding and to Hope they will attend. U they refuse and nuke Good their threats there is Little you can do except keep the door open and Hope eventually they will rejoice in your newfound Happi Ness and return to the fold. There is nothing incestuous shout the relationship. You and to Are not blood relatives. It sound As if you Are both very Lucky. I am Happy for you.
