This is the way the real world works, Ann Landers, so why don't YOU wake up and smell the coffee Thank God It's Friday in Yonkers Dear Friday: So you don't consider me a member of the working class? Well, what do you call a person who has spent many 10- and 12-hour days at a typewriter, makes dozens of speeches and travels thousands of miles to attend meetings so I will be better informed on matters pertaining to medicine, mental health, dentistry, psychology, business. law, religion and education? True, I am well paid, but I was a pioneer in my field and extremely fortunate to have been trained by one of the alltime great editors, Larry Fanning. I've also been at this job 28 years.

Anyone who says the days of opportunity are over is copping out. The person who is motiviated, energetic and dedicated and enjoys his work is certain to do better than one who describes himself as a "nameless, faceless nobody putting in time at a boring job. Dear Ann Landers: A word to the woman who signed herself Face in Arkansas. She had been married 15 years to a man she called "Sewer Mouth." The poor thing was worried about the kids picking up their father's filthy talk. A friend of mine had the same problem.

One day she became so fed up with her husband's terrible mouth she took a flour scoop of garbage (eggshells, coffee grounds, lings, heaped them on a platter and that's. what he found at his place when he sat down to supper. He yelled. "What's THIS?" His wife replied, "Since you don't seem to mind the garbage that comes OUT of your mouth, I thought you might enjoy putting a little garbage into That incident made such a profound impact on "Sewer Mouth" that he cleaned up his act from that day forward Winnipeg Reader Dear Win. Nothing succeeds like success.

Thanks for the offbeat evidence. 6 Portland finishes theater deal PORTLAND (AP) Portland's town performing arts center is a step closer to reality because the city of Portland has assumed ownership of the Paramount Theater. The theater is to be renovated as a concert hall under glans for the Portland Center for the Performing Arts. Papers signed Tuesday afternoon authorized the transfer of $4.1 million to the Multnomah County Circuit Court in settlement of a condemnation suit over the theater owned by John Haviland of Portland. City Commis- sioner Mildred Schwab said.

The Portland City Council also voted unanimously Tuesday to buy a building behind the Paramount for use as dressing rooms and 1 storage space for the arts center. However, a vote authorizing the expenditure of $300.000 for the purchase was delayed until Monday. The council has not yet decided who will renovate the Paramount. The Todd Building Co. of Roseburg is the apparent low bidder with a bid of $7.8 million for the renovation.

About $31.8 million in public and private funds has been raised for the arts center. It is to include renovated Paramount as a concert hall where the Oregon Symphony Orchestra would perform. Center plans also call for construction of an intermediate-size theater and a small theater just south of the Paramount, which is located downtown on Southwest Broadway. Schwab said a new fund-raising drive will be launched soon in an effort to raise an additional $5 million for the project. Cattlemen fear result of dairy plan PORTLAND (AP) Good supplies of beef and other meats could mean "disaster" is in store for the cattle market this fall, according to Donald Ostensoe, executive vice president of the Oregon Cattlemen's Association.

Imagine my surprise to read your views in support of the starched-collar Protestant work ethic. Don't you realize that the world has changed in the last 50 years? In the good old days a person who worked overtime was loyal and smart, had a chance to make it to the top.

The scholarships of the State Federation of Garden Clubs provide full tuition for three terms. They are nameless, faceless nobodies, putting in our time at boring jobs in factories or pushing pencils and shuffling papers in office buildings. True, we get a paycheck, but the big bucks go to the top executives who are making a fortune and looking every which way to protect their enormous incomes against taxation. The vast majority of working people experience very litfinancial gain and no personal satisfaction. Our only relief comes when we get two weeks' vacation in July or awarded to upper-class students majoring in horticulture at OSU.

Recipients must be Oregon residents. The award is named for its founder, the late Claire Hanley of Jacksonville and Medford, a former president of the State Federation of Garden Clubs, an OSU alumna and donor of the Hanley farm, now the Southern Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station of BACK TO SCHOOL WITH: MINE FIVE STAR SPORTS With the NIKE OCEANIA, make a big splash.

Ordinary dirt and grease spots on carpets usually can be removed without damage if treated promptly or cleaned by a professional cleaner.

However, more serious stains and discoloration of carpet can be caused by a variety of household chemicals. These chemicals include medications, cosmetics, fertilizers, insecticides, household cleaners such as polishes, bleaches, and disinfectants. These substances cause a chemical stain that actually changes or destroys the dye in the carpet.

The chemicals can lie dormant until a change in humidity or moisture, temperature or sunlight activates the chemical reaction. only real solution to chemical spots and stains is to prevent them," Koester says.

Keep household cleaners, polishes, and disinfectants in the kitchen or laundry room to prevent spilling them on carpet.
