Young Mother Os Quads May
Have To Accept Relief Funds
CHICAGO (ANP) Fear wai
expressed here last week that Mrs
Delores Harris, 13-year-old mother
of identical quadruplets, may have
to accept Aid to Dependent Child
ren funds because of the family's
worsening financial status.
Mrs. Harris’ mother, Mrs. Nellie
Smith, has been supporting the
young mother, the quads, and ano
ther Harris child, Shawn, since the
Harrises separated last March.
Mrs. Smith says she has been pay
ing $l9O per month rent on her
daughter’s apartment plus her own
rent, which adds up to $275.50.
Several companies have made mi
nor contributions to the quadrup
lets, but no long range plans for
their care and support has been
worked- out. It was rumored that
Pet Milk and Carnation Milk com
panies were interested in sponsor
ing the quadruplets. According to
Mrs. Harris, neither has made ant
concrete offers.
Mrs. Smith reports she is sup
porting 11 persons on her husband s
< Lawrence) car-hop take home
pay of SBO a week.
The father of the quads Ber
nard Harris, 23, has promised
to give bis family S2O a week,
but, thus far, has only contri
buted one week's support. Har
ris, an assembler at Interna
tional Harvester Co., allegedly
has S9O per week take-home pay
But, his wages are reportedly
tied up by creditors.
Meanwhile, a welfare spokesman
explained that because of the un
usualness of the case, mrs. Harris
could get welfare aid, although she
is legally married. She would also
draw money from an emergency
aid fund if investigators feel war
rants it.
The Harris family has received
limited help from outside sources.
This included diaper service from
Johnson and Johnson and a supply
of Modilak Baby Formula from
Gerber Baby Foods. Both services
are now running out.
Mrs. Smith sadly confessed that
she could not pay her own rent
on time because she had to pay
her daughter’s, who rents six
rooms in the same building.
"We can’t hold out much longer,"
Says Mrs. Smith. "I don't know
wnat I'm going to do. 1 also have
to put my own three small child
rifth school."

down the amount it would take to

children weekly and sent it in.

DEAR SALLY
DEAR SALLY: I "m a girl of 1C
and just beginning to date. Here’s
a question on which I haven’t yet
been able to get a good answer. Is
a girl always supposed to kiss her
date goodnight at the end of the
evening'’ Is it a "must""’ LAURIE.
DEAR., LAURIE: Certainly
not. If you don't feel like kiss
ing a boy goodnight, there Is
no rule that says you must. A
kiss Is not the price of a date.
There are some tactful ways of
handling this, if you"d like to
spare the hoy’s feelings. If your
family Is still up when you
get home, you can ask your
date In and say goodnight in
the full view of Mom and Dad.
If not. Just be sure to have your
thank-you's and good-night's all
said before you reach your
door—and then don't linger.
DEAR SALLY: There’s one wom
an member of my bridge club who
insists on blotting her lips on my
best linen napkins when I am serv
ing the snacks after one of our
bridge sessions. She has doen this
a number of times and she must
use a brand of lipstick that is par
ticularly indelible, because I have
an extremely difficult time remov
ing the red stains from my linens
Do you think I should speak to her
about this, or what? F.D.
DEAR F. D.: I can't recom
mend your speaking to her
about this. What I can recom
mend. though. Is that In the
future you furnish paper nap
kins to your guests. There are
lots of very attractive styles
and designs on the market and,
except for strictly formal enter
taining, they are In perfectly
good taste.
DEAR SALLY: I get along real
fine with my wife's mother and
support,! but a spokesman from
Pet said the company has changed
its policy and is “no longer in the
baby business.”
The Fultz quads are believed to
be the first American-born identi
cal quadruplets.
The Fultz girls are expected to
enter college this fall in Salisbury,
N C.
Both sets of quads are Negroes.
| father, and think the world and
all of them. But, although I've now
1 been married to their daughter for
1 almost two years, I still don't know
; what to call them . . . how to ad
dress them. Mr. and Mrs. seems to
formal and stilted. And I can’t
bring myself to calling them Moth
er and Father, as I hear some other
people calling their parents-in-law.
I'd like to call them by their first
names, because that's the way I
feel about them, but I hesitate to
start this for fear of appearing too
forward or disrespectful. Will you
please advise me? KURT.
DEAR KURT: The solution to
your little problem Is very sim
ple. Ask your parents-in-law
how they would like you to ad
dress them. First names are
quite usual these days, but do
not begin this until the older
people sanction it
DEAR SALLY: Some people have
a habit that puzzles us. These are
the people whom we meet out some
place and who during the course
of conversation ask us, "Why don’t
you ever come to see us?" But they
never ever set any definite date for
such a visit. What should we do
about such invitations? GJB.
° DEAR G. 8.: If you reajjy
like these people enough to
want to visit them, you have a
right to phone them and say,
"If you’re going to be home
this evening, we’d like to drop
in and see you for awhile.” If
they accept, all well and good.
If it happens that they are go
ing to be out on that evening,
and still do not set any definite
date, then you can aafely as
sume that their previous Invi
tations were Just so many
words.
DEAR SALLY: After going
steady with a young man for al
most a year, we recently had a
disagreement and broke up. What
bothers me now is that whenever
I meet certain friends, invariably
they'll ask me about this boy, and
I don't know just what to say.
Should I tell them what happened,
and why? Or should I just try to
change the aubject as quickly as
I can? GINNY.
DEAR GINNY: H yon Just
say, “I haven’t seen him re
cently," and then change the
subject to something else, that
should tell your friends all
they need to know. A detailed
explanation Is neither neces
sary nor in good taste.
