Show How to Digest a Newspaper in one easy lesson, or Pass the Pampers, Mother Uy Mary Gae Evans As my husband and I were fighting over who got to be first to read the Parade Magazine out of the Tribune Sunday, I came to an interesting conclusion: you can tell a lot about a Derson bv the way he reads a newspaper. Sunday is the only day we agree on what part should be read first. I like to read the jokes and look for new recipes and I have a sneaky feeling he's looking for pictures of Raquel Welch. Anyway, on weekdays it's a different story. If hubby gets the paper first, I just as well forget trying to read it because he destroys it. He reads it all, religiously, but he starts in the middle .on the sports page and works his way out, taking the whole thing apart piece by piece.

As a general rule, men will turn to the sports page first in the paper. I'm a little suspicious of those who favor the society section. But, I always trust a person who reads the comic section for openers. Lil Abner fans can't be all bad. I found a funny thing in Saturday's paper that wasn't in the comic section. Did you read where Charleston, South Carolina, has passed an ordinance or-dinance requiring horses to wear diapers when pulling carriages through the streets. Can you imagine what size the Pampers would have to be, and the tubes of Desonex for diaper rash-WOW. Where else but in a newspaper could we enjoy such valuable information? Thorston, and the editoral page. I must say, however, I've lost a little faith in Ann's judgment when she was divorced recently. But, I must admit that I've been taking her advice for a long time and my husband and I have been happily married quite a few years, in fact 28 and holding. . .not holding as much maybe, but holding just the same.
