One interesting aspect of having older children is the periodic discovery of new facets to their personalities. As soon as they are able to extricate themselves from the parental grip they split in two, like an amoeba, and form two distinct personalities, one for home and one for away from home.
The "home" personality, of course, is the one you have more or less forced them into, the one you have molded and hammered into shape. It's not always perfect, but it's the best you can do with your limited talent and the material on hand.
The "away" personality is the one they shape themselves to suit themselves and, like the "home" self, it also has its good and bad sides. Occasionally a chance remark by a friend reveals a part of this "away" personality. The other day, for instance Chuck's friend Randy happened to remark that Chuck was the cleanest guy he knew.
In view of the fact that Chuck has spent 19 grueling years defending his slob title in the family, this remark had a jolting effect on me.

"Are you telling me Chuck is flies," said Randy.
"Kills flies!"
"Yeah, they have lot of flies at the garage, being near the farms and all. Chuck goes around swatting them."
"I can't stand flies," commented Chuck, examining his grubby fingernails.
"Tell me something, Chuck." I said. "Why does a meticulous guy like you hang around a dirty place like a garage?"
He sat up. "What do you mean? I go there to visit old Bob."

Editor, Anaheim Gazette
Dear Sir,
It isn't often that a mere writer is honored by the editor turning same into an edible. However, this one crashing through the sound riers and was last seen going South hitting on all cylinders.
In reading your answer to letter, I was remingled of a man who stands by and sees house in flames, and says himself, "perhaps the fire stop before it consumes while all he had to do, was up the hose, turn on the wagon and put out the flames.
Your crack about total liaison with pne puff frighten me. You seem to have fallen the Moscow line, hook line sinker. Are you so naive as to lieve that a Russian is any anxious to live than you? They die just like we do, so come you are more afraid they are?
You spent a good deal of time in your editorial attacking Oral Walker and military tators. Well Mr. Editor, Rush has one going for her right now. What makes you think OLD BOY is going to start a war take a chane on ruining a job. Mr. K will toast up just brown as you or I. While we on the subject, is a man kid with a bullet any less dead than a man killed in an atom bomb blast?
Here's the pay off. It is of the liberal or the middle-of-the-roader who, halting and stung and not knowing where they are going, finally drift helpless into a war which they have reared invisable without the slightest injury."

"Are you telling me Chuck is neat?" I asked.
"Sure. If there's anything he can't stand, it's dirt," said Randy.
"It's true," said Chuck, throwing himself down on the couch and propping two dirty tennis shoes up on the coffee tab.
"That's impossible," I said. "At home neatness is his big failing. I still have to remind him to brush his teeth."
"Will you see him down at the garage," Randy said.
"The garage?"
"Yeah, where old Bob works. Every time we go there, do you think Chuck hangs around the lube room with the rest of us?"
"Too dirty there?"
"Well, it's a little greasy around there, but he doesn't mind that. He knows lube rooms are supposed to be dirty."
"Where is he then?"
"In the washroom scouring the sink."
"Scouring the sink! Whatever for?"
"Because I can't stand dirty sinks," said Chuck.
I stared at him. He needed a shave. "Then why do you dirty cuts with peanut butter knives, milk glasses and toast plates?" I asked.
"He also sweeps the floor at the garage," Randy continued.
"With a broom?"
"Sure."
Rag Mop
"He sweeps the floor here too." I said, "with his clothes. And he dry mops under his bed every morning with his pajamas. Tell me more."
He loves to tidy up the display room. He dusts the window sills and rearranges the displays, and gets rid of old pamphlets and posters.
I nodded. "I know where he gets rid of them. In his dresser drawers with his socks and unders."
Thirteen men whose workaday creations have held millions of people throughout the world spellbound are currently showing their leisuretime skills at the Laguna Beach Art Gallery in an exhibit entitled, "Painting by Artists of the Walt Disney Studios."
Many are recognized artists in their own right while others qualify as merely Sunday painters, but together they add up to a presentation of wide variety and imaginative interest.
The Disney artists represented in the exhibit include Bill Bosche, Les Clark, Basil Davidovich, Mark Davis, Al Dempster, Jack Hannah, T. Hee, Ralph Hulett, Ward Kimball, Josh Meador, Walt Peregoy, Art Riley and Herb Ryman.
Also of great interest is the First International Exhibit of Photographic Art, sponsored by the Orange Empire Assn. of Camera Clubs currently hung in the lower gallery, while the main gallery features a Laguna Beach Art Assn. juried membership exhibit.
Oral Vaccine To Be Given
Definite plans for a county-wide immunization program with the Sabin oral polio vaccine were announced last Thursday by the Orange County Medical Association.
Dr. William K. Friend, OCMA president, said exact dates have not been set, but that the program will start some time in early October.
The physician said the delay until fall is due the possibility of the oral vaccine being nullified by other viruses that tend to infect the intentional tract during the summer months.
Cello Concert
Michele Mackay, cellist, will present a concert May 11 at 8 p.m. in Fullerton Junior College Student Center. She is currently studying in the master's class under Pablo Casals at University of California in Berkeley.
Job: Mr. K will toast up just brown as you or I. While we are on the subject, is a man kid with a bullet any less dead than a man killed in an atom bomb blast?
Here's the pay off. It is on the liberal or the middle-of-the-roader who, halting and stumbling and not knowing where they are going, finally drift helpless into a war which they have remained inevitable without the slightest idea they were doing Freedom is more than just misc on the cash register.
All liberal and most middle-class roaders were the kind of guy that used to hold my coat every time there was a good fish brewing in school.

I could go through another column of type in replying to your letter, but since it appears you failed to understand last week's editorial, I might just be wasting valuable space.
It might interest you, however that in the neighborhood where I was raised (the near-northside of Chicago), we did not have time to take off our coats when a fight was brewing.

Dear Sir:
I congratulate your honesty in last weeks' editorial. You have considerably more courage than some of the other newspapers in Orange County. This county is considered very extreme in other parts of California, and you have just taken on the chief conservative spokesman for the whole area.
Mr. Jim Townsend has been filling the newspapers of late and its about time someone took him down a peg or two. I too, am a middle-of-the-roader and I certainly don't want to be fried to a crisp by some mad Russian that may not have any respect for the atom bomb.

California Cities Top Billion Dollar Mark in Expenditures
California cities topped the billion dollar mark in revenues and expenditures for the first time in history during the 1960-61 fiscal year, State Controller Alan Cranston reported last week.
Cranston said the $72 cities (six more than a year previously) collected $1,029,302,417 in general revenue — a seven percent increase from the prior year. Cost of government expenditures amounted to $1,013,920,257 — up 9 per cent.
The figures are contained in Cranston's annual report on the financial transactions of cities.
The report shows that locally imposed taxes raised $597,693,287, or about 57 percent of the total general revenues. Of this amount, $833,535,765 was from property taxes and $192,296,848 from the sales tax.
The second largest source of funds was from federal, state and county governments, which amounted to $153,912,165, or near-10 million.

There is a compound but opposite type of amino acid which may make up living things or other planets.

"In this world everybody white or black Democrat."

A flashback to the 19th Century and a glimpse ahead to the 21st Century of Los Angeles where he made the world—and he really did make it—chose a very interesting way of making everything from exactly the same material. We live in a world of the same molecular matter, there is a amino acid. There is a sponding but opposite type of amino acid which may make up things or other planets.
"A human, made of L-amino acid molecules, would be unable to use the food or to mix in other ways with the people of a place where life was composed of the opposite variety of molecules he said.
"In this world everybody white or black, Democrat, Publican, or Communist — made of an identical chemical substance. The only explanation for this is that the Lord, however he made the world—and he really did make it—chose a very interesting way of making everything from exactly the same material. We live in a world of the same molecular matter, there is a amino acid. There is a sponding but opposite type of amino acid which may make up things or other planets."
The second largest source of funds was from federal, state and county governments, which amounted to $153,912,165, or nearly 15 per cent of the total.

Poor, Plodding Patriot: He Misses Nearly All the Fun
We're using this space today to reprint a reprint.
The editorial which caught our eye was written by Peter Laine for the Miami Herald. The author is a former Briton, one-time RAF pilot and later a lecturer in philosophy. He came into the newspaper business seven years ago.
The editorial was reprinted in The Quill, official magazine of Sigma Delta Chi, national professional journalistic society.
The real significance to be found in our reprint of the reprint is that we are frankly impressed to find this article calling for a "back-to-earth" approach to Americanism presented in a national journalism publication.
We are hopeful the selection of this particular editorial for reproduction in this professional magazine means that journalists around the country share our opinion that Mr. Laine has done a good job of presenting a valid case.
Here is his editorial, reprinted in full:
These are dull days for the patriot with the super patriot having all the fun.
Patriot is plodding along with all his human fears and fallings...worrying about the mortgage payment, the kids' grades, how long the tires will without much fuss, just as his forbears have.
He's against Communism, pays his taxes and can be counted on to uphold and perhaps uplift the standards of his community.
(In the last election) he took part in choosing a President and feels the man elected is in the spot to know what needs to be done.
Patriot is anxious to help and wishes there were some simple solution, but does not think it lies in pushing all the buttons.
So he settles down to a long haul and goes about his daily routine, confused perhaps but hopeful...only to be more confused by Super Patriot who alternately cajoles and berates him.
Patriot minds his own business pretty much. Super Patriot has clandestine meetings, secret handshakes and jousts with Presidents, past, present and future.
Patriot tries his best to keep up with the news. Super Patriot bugs him for not reading selected (by SP) literature for homework every night.
Patriot is proud of the flag. Super Patriot bullies him for not waving it all day long.
In his slow way, Patriot likes to see both sides of a story.
Super Patriot chastises his indecision.
Here is his editorial, reprinted in all:
These are dull days for the patriot with the super patriot having all the man.
Patriot is plodding along with all his human fears and fallings...worrying about the mortgage payment, the kids' grades, how long the tires will last and living in the same world with fascials boasting of their megatons.
Men and monkeys zoom around the world; there's cannibalism in the Congo and a bearded wildman on the doorstep.
Patriot is concerned about his country and will fight and die for it, together.
