Within the Southern I' tan Chapter, the Mothers March was able to raise in excess of $80,00 this year. Each and every Marching Mother deserves congratulations i ought to know better by oneita sumsion If I could have had my "druthers," I would "druther" have been named Mary. There's not much chance of mispronouncing mispro-nouncing Mary. A week never passes that I am not called Oneita with a long "i" (as in Oneida Indians and silver) at least once, instead in-stead of Oneita with a long "e" as my mother chose to call me. I know there's an Eiffel Tower, an eiderdown quilt, a few feisty Eileens, Eins-teins, Eins-teins, and Eisenhowers. But there are just as many Keiths, Leilas, Neils, Neilsons, and Reids. You can say "either" with a long e, or "either" with a long i, but who in the world would dare utter being or ceiling or weird with a long i? A Weidman with height could pull a heist in Heidelberg but he could never have a seizure in Weiser in his leisure. : Ah well, there's always the chance somebody might decide to pronounce my name as in reindeer, eight, veil, or weigh with a long a sound. See why I wish my mother had been a little more prone to common names? My brothers got Bill, John. George, and Jesse common enough. But I got Oneita '. . . named after somebody, they told me. Well, my former roommate named her second se-cond daughter Oneita . . . after me. Poor kid. I wonder how many times she's been called Oneita . . . with a long i. Buying o houte li o BIG decision. Fortunately, it's one you don't have to make alone. Many real estate firms offer helpful checklists that lero in on the essentials so you can make the right decision. Questions they ask include: in-clude: Is the house reasonably close to public transportation, transpor-tation, shopping areas, churches, schools, and public utilities? Does it have fire and police protection readily available? What are the insurance rates, taxes, and special assessments? Is the house too close to busy traffic, traf-fic, factories, or railroads? Most checklists also include questions to help you evaluate the house properly construction, design, materials, etc. Help is available, too, for those all-important financial questions. Including: How much down payment do you need? What will your property taxes run? How much should yuo plon on for fire and mortgage insurance? Remember, a typical family can afford to spend 20 to 25 percent of their after-tax Income on housing. Remember, too, that property taxes and interest payments are tax-deductible an Important advantage advan-tage over paying rent.

Planning on pulling up the stakes and moving this year? If you are, the Internal Revenue Service says you may be able to deduct those costly moving expenses on your federal income tax return. That's right; the IRS says expenditures on househunting before the move, the sale of your former home, traveling to the new location, and moving household goods and personal items may be deducted from your income for federal tax purposes if you meet certain conditions. The IRS says you qualify to take these deductions if your new primary job location is at least 35 miles farther from your prior residence than was your old primary job location. You must also work for at least 39 weeks full-time during the 12 months following your move if you are employed, and, in addition, 78 weeks full-time full-time during the 24 months following your move if self-employed. There are exceptions to -these requirements, so write (he IRS and ask for their Publication 521, "Moving Expenses." It's free. Also ask for Form 3903, "Moving Expense Adjustment," if you plan on moving within the United States, or Form 3903F, "Foreign Moving Expense Adjustment," if you plan on moving to or; from the United States.
