Miss unders Harvey s nose is just Fine the Way it is. He has his father s note and it did t top him from building a big business. 1 knew without ailing that this idea came from Harvey s Fiancee. She had her nose done two years ago and in my opinion she tooted better with her old nose. It had character. But she has convinced him that if his dds was straighter and Shorter he would look Ike Derek Bok the president of Harvard my husband says i should keep quiet Bull am so mad i think i have to a Terni myself. What is your advice a Boston Mother dear mothered have Titt a yourself. To me a let thai be in Tail if pc. Harvey is old month i defile what at Nants k to. Accept his de lilo and keep Valet or pm . Dear Ann Landertin sure you have saved lives by printing letters that remind people How Lucky they Are to Jet out of bed in us morning without help. Welt Here is another one of those letters. I urge you to run it and save a few More lives. I won t bore you with statistics but please give some thought to what i am saying Hen. Seat Bells too confining Well let me Tell you that Little strap around your Waist is a Tot less confining than lying in a Hospital bed for weeks with injuries that could have been prevented by that Little strap. Too hard 10 move around or shift your position in a scat Bell try moving around in a wheelchair. Scat Belli inconvenient try finding a res room for the handicapped and when you can t find one figure out the alternatives. Wearing seat Bells is a waste of time it Lutes about five Minuta to get in and out of a car from a wheel chair. Neil time you think it s Loo much trouble to buckle up remember this column. A county Coroner  Tor the chilling reminder. A lot of people needed that. Dear Ann Landers today you can follow the sociological treads in our culture by looking at the society pages. For example Noil the enclosed Story that recounts details of a wed Ding that took place recently. The Bride and Groom arc from Lexington by. The Bride s Mother lives in Boca rain fla., and her father resides in Paducah. The Groom s Mother lives in Scanlon ky., and his father lives in Winchester. The Best Man was from Louisville the Ushers from Lexington and Shelby Villa. The couple will live in Nichols Villa. I d be interested in your comments. Just a Reader dear Reader tis True. The world is a Channin. The Only thing you East be sure of these Days is that the couple s children will be born in the same Chy where their Mother is. Huh awl Tut Ivoun my to kit of win Rod and gun clubs aware of Lead threat your recent article on Lead contamination Survey results closing the Pitburg skeet Range prompted me to use this Media to warn thai Oiher Rod and gun a acct and trap ranges Are perilously close to Pitburg state unless the Usa eur Rod and gun association and its executive Council assist its member clubs in finding a rapid solution to he same problem facing other Skacel and trap ranges in Europe. The concern that Lead shot May be contaminating the soil at our Licet ranges has been with us for Many years. It should not have come As a Surprise to the association that it has lost another Range. Several limes warning has been sounded but Secl shooters and their interests have never been Well represented during Council meetings. A acct and trap shooting facilities in Usa eur and Safe Are an important recreational facility for our  not Only Ore most of these ranges self ius Laining but Many also generate funds that sup port activities enjoyed by non shooters. In both eng land and Germany any Given weekend will find numerous americans sharing their interests with their Host nation friends. In Germany these ranges Are necessary requirement for Hunters qualifying for Ger Man Hunting licenses. Unfortunately for Many years we have ignored the Lead shot Issue and sadly this neglect could deprive future assigned  of the pleasure of enjoying their sport blaming local environmentalists is not the solution even though substantial proof has Yetto be presented that these Lead deposits actually do present a Hazard. To minimize ibis Public concern Ossa ranges in the United Stales have taken Steps to police their areas. We in Usa eur must follow their example. I urge ail sleet and trap shooters to Contact their Cle Cclif land Council representatives and encourage them to address this Issue during future meetings of he executive Council stories abound of the availability of commercial Lead reclaiming machines used at . Ranges. If by Reader is aware of such a company in form your Council member and suggest that the association Contact this firm and either Purchase a machine for use or rent by member clubs. A consultant one a reel Malion methods for Many Midwest a acct ranges is willing to visit Usa eur ranges and can offer suggestions that fit individual club needs. Granted this would Cost Money however. More has been spent on other ventures and in this Era of financial austerity we should invest in sustaining Anmer activity that provides both funds and a service to . Forces stationed overseas. Finally some suggestions to those personnel shoot ing on our ranges. Always remember mat you arc using someone else s Back Yard. Tailor your shooting activities so that operating hours do not disturb your neigh Bors and close your Range on their important holidays periodically Rake up the broken Clay pigeons As the paint on these objects allegedly contain a Lead base another potential problem by exercising caution you can minimize the myopic scrutiny of those less supportive of your pursuits.
