European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - March 1, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i need your advice on a family matter. My sister thinks i owe her $700 for Back rent and Bills. A the Story goes Back three years when a a Susan was pregnant with twins and having a hard time doing her housework and laundry. My husband had to go to Florida on a Job so i decided to move to Wyoming to help Susan out. For 63 Days i cooked cleaned her House ran errands and even sewed a halloween costume for her son and took him trick or treating. Two years later we both ended up in Oklahoma. Her husband went to Arizona to work so i baby sat for Susan while she attended school at night. We agreed that she would pay me $25 a week. After six weeks she had paid me Only $10.1 told her i  continue to work for nothing because i had to provide for my 4-year-old and i was going to school during the Day. That is when Susan informed me that i owed her $700 for a a rent in Wyoming plus the Cost of the plane ticket she bought me so i could visit our parents in California. My question is this should i Send Susan a Bill for my services for the 63 Days i worked in her House in Wyoming i checked with three people in an employment Agency and was told that in 1987, the going rate for the services. I performed was $35 a Day. This comes to $2,205. I helped my sister out of Friendship and had no intention of charging her but now she wants to charge me. We live seven blocks apart and in a afraid our children Are going to grow up strangers because their Mother and i will dear Abby dear Abby Many years ago you printed a very comical column about an editor who tried to Correct a typographical error and every time he tried to Correct it he compounded the error and ended up in far worse trouble than he started with. It was a classified and to sell a sewing machine. I have lost the clip Ping. Will you please try to find it and run it again Bettie Evans in Georgia dear Bettie i found it. And Here it is a. T dear Abby my Mother recently passed away after a Brief illness. In the obituary published in our local newspaper her age was Given As 89. _ _ _ Abby my Mother was Only 80, so it was apparently a typographical error. Now this May not seem very important to some people but Mother was a very vain and prideful woman who would never Tell her age. Because of this typographical error in her obituary everyone will think she was nine years older than she actually was should we ask the newspaper editor to publish a correction i say we should. The rest of the family says to skip it. Outvoted in Ohio Friday March 1, 1991. Not be speaking to each other. Please reply. Unappreciated in Oklahoma. Dear Oklahoma i would not attempt to make a judgment without listening to your Sisters Side of the Story. You stated that you went to Wyoming to help Susan out but her interpretation of the move was that you came to live with her. Then there a a trip to California which she provided a no Small item. 1 suggest that the two of you take this mess to an impartial person Fei priest minister rabbi or therapist and get it settled. Dear Ann Landers. I am a foreign student studying in America. I enjoy Reading your articles not Only because they help me improve my English but i am learning a lot about solving the problems that life presents. It is apparent that people Lave much the same kind of trouble no matter where they Ive. Now it is my turn to ask for advice. My problem is that i stammer and it is interfering with my ability to make friends. Because of this Handicap i am reluctant to speak up. Sometimes i think stammering is a kind of sickness but that does no to seem logical because it comes and goes. If 1 could get  of stammering miss Landers in a sure i could have a much better life. -r.j., Philadelphia dear Friend in Philly stammering is not a sickness. It is a speech problem often caused by an unresolved emotional problem. Ask your English professor to recommend a speech therapist. With competent instruction and a lot of Effort you should be Able to overcome this Handicap completely. Good Luck. Creators  outvoted sometimes its better to leave bad enough alone.
