Antique find
Ruth Greenlee of Broken Arrow
and her friend, Sharon Puckett, found
a box of six glass nest eggs decorated
with Easter motifs in a box marked
“Gabe's Office Supply” during a thrift
shop visit.
Greenlee writes that she remembers
the glass nest eggs being used to put in
hens’ nests to encourage them to lay
eggs. She had also seen many sold in
her parents’ five and dime store which
they owned from 1906 to 1962.
Although the eggs are not from
Gabe’s, she writes it would be interest-
ing to know who made the Easter eggs.
Square dancing makes
hoofers happy and active
DEAR ABBY: In your reply to
people wanting to meet someone of
the opposite sex, how come you
never mention square dancing?
It’s a wholesome way to meet
people. You will see no couch pota-
toes, no drinking is allowed, and it’s
great exercise.
This is a worldwide activity and
is well-established in all 50 states.
There are teen and singles clubs as
well as couples only. Some clubs
will welcome anyone from 16 to 90
who walks through the door.
If you're interested and don't
know a dancer, look in the Yellow
Pages under “Square Dance Appar-
el" and call one of the shops for
information. It opened up a whole
new world for me.
ROBERT FITTS, EUGENE, ORE.
DEAR ROBERT: You must be
a new reader. In June of 1989, I
ran the following ringing
endorsement of square dancing:
DEAR ABBY: Once in a while I
read a love story in your column,
usually from a couple who met
through Operation Dear Abby.
Well, I also have a love story to tell.
Several years ago, following a
painful divorce, I enrolled in a
square dance class. The caller
(teacher) said that every year there
had been marriages as a result of
people meeting there. I didn’t find a
husband, but I had a lot of fun and
met some nice people. Then I
dropped out.
Last October, a neighbor encour-
aged mt' Co enroll in another square
dance class, and there1 I met
Richard — an “angel" (that’s what
they call dancers who come to help
beginners). I approached him, just
to talk, and before the evening
ended, he asked me for a date.
Richard turned out to be the love
of my life! I'm no spring chicken
(I'm 50 plus) and never expected to
find love again, but did 1 ever! He’s
a few years younger than I am, but
who's counting?
We’re getting married next
week, and I’ve never been happier.
Abby, please tell your readers about
square dancing. It’s good exercise
and a wonderful way to meet nice
people.

DEAR ABBY: I read in your col-
umn recently that a woman had
attended a very posh party and
never met the bride and groom
because there was no receiving line.
Well, this could have been my wed-
ding.
When I was married, I was three
months pregnant, which wasn't a
problem for either of us or our par-
ents, as we had gone together for
nine years and had planned to
marry a year later.
I confided in my priest, who
knew me well because I had attend-
ed his church all my 24 years of life,
and he refused to let us get married
in the church until we had complet-
ed a Catholic seminar, and the first
opening wasn’t for four months —
at which time I would have been
seven months pregnant!
Anyway, getting back to the
receiving line, my parents found a
beautiful Christian church. The
price for renting the church was
$750 for the ceremony, but no
receiving line, because they had
scheduled three more weddings
immediately after ours. We were
told later that nobody missed the
receiving line, and in my condition,
I certainly didn’t.
