DEAR ABBY: I moved into this apartment six months
ago. 1 like it very much. The only problem is that shortly
after I moved in, I noticed that a man in the building
directly across from me kept looking into my apartment. At
first I ignored it, then he set up a telescope, which he has
had permanently trained on my window!
It’s not just my imagination; my boyfriend has also
noticed it. This has made-me feel very nervous and
uncomfortable.
Would you consider this to be normal, harmless behavior
on the man's part? Or should some action be taken on my
part to put a stop to it?
UNCOMFORTABLE
DEAR UNCOMFORTABLE: Being observed con-
stantly (and through a telescope yet) could be con-
sidered harassment. Behavior that makes you ner-
vous and uncomfortable is not “harmless.” Notify the
police.
DEAR ABBY: Since my husband retired two years ago, he
has started one project after another. But he hasn’t finished
any of them.
First he thought it would be nice if we had a vegetable
garden, so he dug up the backyard and bought all kinds of
seeds; but so far he hasn’t gotten around to planting
anything.
Then he decided we needed a patio, so he bought a
truckload of sand and a load of bricks. It’s been five months,
and the bricks and sand are still piled on our back porch,
and he hasn’t started to build anything yet.
Now he is buying electric tools and equipment for a
woodworking shop in our basement! Abby, he is such a dear
man, and he has really earned his retirement, but all he does

hardware store to do some more shopping. Thank heavens
we can afford it, but all these unfinished projects are getting
on my nerves. Any suggestions?
MILLIE IN PHILLY
DEAR MILLIE: Look at it this way: You have a cow
pasture for a backyard, a pile of bricks and sand on
your back porch, and some woodworking equipment
in your basement. But you have a husband who is
alive, retired and happy as a lark. If the unfinished
projects annoy you, quietly hire someone to finish
them, and whistle as you walk around them.
DEAR ABBY: A married couple have invited my husband
to their home for supper many times. Last week they called
him to come for coffee and birthday cake My husband
always goes alone.
Abby, when they invite my husband, doesn’t that mean
he should bring his wife? How cheap can people be? They
know he’s married because they have met me several times.
I told my husband if I’m not good enough to be invited too,
he shouldn’t accept. What do you think?
CHEAP FRIENDS
DEAR FRIENDS: The issue is not “cheap friends,”
it’s your husband’s lack of consideration for your
feelings. If you’re not included in the invitation, he
should not accept.
DEAR ABBY: I hope you will find the enclosed piece by

“I am standing on the seashore. A ship spreads her
sails to the morning breeze and starts for the ocean. I
stand watching her until she fades on the horizon,
and someone at my side says, ‘She is gone!'
“Gone where? The loss of sight is in me, not in
her. Just at the moment when someone says, ‘She is
gone,' there are others who are watching her coming.
Other voices take up the glad shout, ‘Here she comes!'
“And that is dying."

Safer storage of ornaments
can save money at Christmas
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -
When it's time to take down the
family Christmas tree, will
your family treasures — those
precious tree ornaments —
have a proper home for the
rest of the year?
‘Ornament storage has be-
come increasingly important as
people have begun to build
their own ornament collections
and want to carefully preserve
their investment," says Glenna
Gammon, manager for Hall-
mark’s keepsake ornament col-
lection.
“You can’t just get a big box,
toss them inside and send them
off to spend the rest of the year
in a hot attic or a damp base-
ment," she warns.
Instead, it’s necessary to in-
vest a little time and effort to
make sure that ornaments will
survive for many years. Here
are her pointers for collectors:

Each of us have kindred souls
that understand easily and
exactly how we feel, what we
think, what we need.
Those special, very special,
people seldom bother to speak.
Their quiet companionship is
like balm to the spirit and quite
enough without words.
Wherever we are on the path-
way of life there seem to be
these special persons who have
known the loneliness of the road
and have heard the empty
echoes.
Now they mark the way for us
by kindness, by saying it is
going to be all right-we are
going to make it. We are never
alone.
And then we, in quiet com-
munication, can reach back and
help someone else along his
lonely road.

Shoe dye also does belt
DEAR POLLY - My husband has an expensive white
belt. Now white belts are out and the season for wearing
white is over. I would like to dye it black or brown. I have
looked at regular dyes, but you can’t put a leather belt in
water. Is there any way to dye this belt? - MRS. J G.
DEAR MRS. J G - Why not try shoe dye? It’s available
at many shoe stores, variety stores and shoe repair shops
and it’s inexpensive and easy to nse. Also, a shoe repair shop
would probably dye the belt for you if you're worried about
doing it yourself. — POLLY
DEAR POLLY — You can keep a vinyl shower curtain
from tearing at the holes where the rings hook on by stapling
an “x" at the top of that hole. Use a standard paper staple
and stapler. This can also be used to prevent a small tear
from ripping further
Putting my plastic freezer containers in the sunlight for a
day or two usually gets rid of spaghetti sauce and chili
stains It also removes odors that washing won’t touch Actu-
ally, almost any odor can be removed from plastic contain-
ers by sunning them. - BUNNY
DEAR POLLY — If I have buttered toast left over from
breakfast, I put it in a plastic bag and freeze it. When I have
enough collected, I make stuffing for fowl, or bread pudding.
I also use it in meatloaf. This saves me time as well as
reducing waste - MARJORIE
DEAR POLLY - Here’s a good way to keep track of your
plastic storage containers, when I prepare foods and give
them out in my expensive containers, I forget who has what
and never get them back. So I keep all my plasticware in one
cupboard and as I take out a piece, I write down the size and
who is getting it. This list is attached to the door inside of the
cupboard When the container is returned, I simply cross
that name off the list. After a suitable time, I can ask after
the missing containers. - JANET
