Last year, Crandma came to live with us because she decided she was unable to live alone. We fixed up our guest bedroom for it. It is big and bright. v'e even bought new curtains, bedspread, and a comfortable chair. Also a lamp, radio, and television. But Grandma is in her room to sleep. She spends all her time sitting in the living Is A Problem room, reading, crocheting or w atching TV there. We used to have friends drop in for an evening, but this has stopped because Grandma is always right there. We have two teen-agewho liked to have the gang in for an evening of recordgoof playing or just to around, but that has stopped, too, because with Grandma there, there's not much privacy. Its been months since we've had a family evening. We find ourselves taking refuge in the kitchen or in one of our bedrooms. Cant Grandma realize that we'd like to be together once in a while without ber listen ing to every word? She had HER life with her family, and we think we are entitled to ours before the children are gone from home. Grandma is 78. but she is in good health. I hope you will print this. I am not sure whether Grandma reads your column, but maybe this message will get across to other Grandmas (or Granpas).

As worn by most girls it lodes awsward, out of proportion, and messy. She simply cant say enough, though for the mid-calength. It's been a long time since shes been so enthusiastic about fashion. I think the midi is already eliminating the trouser suit, she says. I wear pants at home or on the boat, but never pantsuits. I like evening pajamas for resorts or the country, but not when I go out here. In New York for a week's visit, just to see friends and to go to the Coco opening, she didn't bring many clothes. As far as the international list of best dreraed woman goes, she has always been famous for being one of tbe most careful buyers who hangs on to her favorite outfits for the longest time. HER OUTFIT On her first day here she went shoppuig with Mrs. Leland Hayward in a midi length blond suede coat trimmed in brown leather, a brown sombrero, and brown boots. At the Coco opening she appeared in the gold mesh dress that Chanel made for her last year. The Paris couture is having its most successful season in many years, reports Gloria Guinness. Instead of dying out, the fashion business seems to have taken a new lease on life. Designers who managed to survive the big switch many wealthy customers made to farther out boutiques have had more orders this season than they were able to fill. s Women are flocking back to get good e and clothes, Gloria Guinness says. xi lf made-to-ord- The Wall er rab-ric- GRAVES well-mad- Conditioned as we are to expect certain things of certain situations, sometimes it is difficult to get away from FAVORITE DESIGNERS Her own come from Givenchy.

Hats are well on their way back, she believes. As a matter of proportion, they are as necessary to the midi skirt as all that long, loose hair was to the success of the mini.

Adopted people show full capacity to adjust to their present realities when they are given what they need for doing so. Biologists generally agree that every individual needs such information to guide his life wisely. Many psychologists take the postion of Mrs. Frances Bruce Strain, authority on child development, who that everybody placed for adoption has two rights. The first which is generally recognized, is to know eventually that he is adopted. The second, which is not now always observed, is the right to know his own ancestry. declares Apartment f or OTHER MATERIAL Other flooring materials coulij be used just as 'Effea parquet ctively.

I know a couple who they are interested, she By DORSEY CONNORS Hamil-toii-How- e. Anyone who doesn't know who he really is, must occasionally be like a man without a country. The adopted child who lias no knowledge of his real parents is conspicuously in this position. Some social agencies aie determined not to let him know the facts and many adoptive parents join in this conspiracy of silence. If the child knew his natural parents, they feel it might diminish his love for those who adopted him. or they might want to shield him from knowledge they feel might shock or injure him. Jean M. Paton, a social worker, who was herself twice adopted in childhood and who set up a Life History Study Center for the collection of personal stories (she will be happy to hear from interested persons; her address is RFD No. 1 Cedaredge, Colorado, 81413. has a definite opinion on this subject She writes: Adopted people should not be set apart by being refused admission to knowledge about their natural parents and the dislikes maxi long-sleeve-d.
