Unlike sports widows who wonder if their husbands really went to the game, or TV widows whose husbands ignore them for hours on end, stamp widows always know where their husbands are.

And there isn't a stamp collector alive who doesn't like to talk about his hobby. Even to his wife. Ticket stubs and programs from sports events only add to the nation's pollution, but a stamp collection is like money in the bank. Think of the legacy the stamp collector's wife will have, if she outlives him. ISRAEL I.

BICK: BEVERLY HILLS DEAR MR. She's given the thrill is finding down. And his collection. BICK: And what if she doesn't outlive him? best years of her life to a man whose biggest a 1923 airmail stamp with the airplane upside second wife winds up with a valuable stamp DEAR ABBY: I could "STAMP WIDOW."

My Montie doesn't women. His home is the most his stamps, of course. RUMSOWER: LOWDEN, IA. "STAMP WIDOW" she was had the one hobby she could Anyone who collects stamps blasphemy. Stamp collectors mounts.

SUSMAN: HARTFORD TIMES DEAR ED: Okay, I'N take a good "licking" with a Scott catalog. DEAR ABBY: Stamp Widow doesn't know how lucky she is. My husband i is a stamp collector and I have to go to all the stamp shows and auctions with him. And I'm the "soaker off" from envelopes and cards that friends give him. Yes, my house is a mess with stamps drying off all over.

But I'm lucky. He could be in a tavern, gambling, instead of in his stamp corner. I've gone to work with stamp hinges clinging to my clothes, inside my shoes, and you don't ask where else. For Christmas, birthdays, Father's Day, what does my man want? Stamps, or supplies for his albums. LILLIAN DEAR ABBY: Words cannot adequately express my appreciation for the wholesome hobby of stamp collecting.

My husband was forced to retire before 60 so he turned to his stamp collection, added to it, bought and sold stamps and found a fascinating hobby that required no physical effort. We exposed our children to stamps early. As they brought in the mail they would announce, "Betsy Ross Flag!" Or "Another Mr. Lincoln!" They learned history thru observing stamps. To this day I never throw away a canceled stamp.

I cut, soak and dry. And they're saved for my grandchildren. STAMP WIDOW: MPLS. Book Review By MARY ALICE FLORENCE Twin Falls Public Library TWIN FALLS For those movie-going readers who prefer to read the book before they see the movie, time is running out on "The Phantom Tollbooth." Newsweek's movie reviewer refers to Norton Juster's book as a juvenile classic. There are those who will dispute the fact that a book can become a classic in just ten years, but "The Phantom Tollbooth" certainly has the wit and wisdom to call it a modern "Alice in Wonderland." There was once a very bored boy named Milo wherever he was, he wished he was someplace else, and when he got here, he always wondered why he bothered.

Then one day he came home from school and found a tollbooth in his room. He drove his small electric automobile up to the tollbooth, deposited a coin, and rolled into a fantasy world. Milo's first stop is Dictionopolis where he meets King Azaz the Unabridged and an amazing assortment of allegorical characters. Two of the most unforgettable are his friends on the remainder of his journey, the watchdog Tock and news about the people you know High-ability chosen for KING HILL Barbara Wertz, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

Harold Wertz, Glenns Ferry, has been chosen to participate in a science training program for high -ability secondary school students. Selected from among 200 state finalists from junior classes, Miss Wertz will attend a six-week program at the University of Idaho, with $233 awarded for this. She will be taking physics, chemistry and mathematics. Area man accepted at university LOMA LINDA, Calif. Victor D.

Cook, Hansen, has been accepted at Loma Linda University School of Dentistry. Loma Linda University is a Seventh-day Adventist coeducational institution located on two campuses in southern California, 60 miles east of Los Angeles. Six of the eight schools in the university are on the Loma Linda campus with professional curriculums in medicine, dentistry, nursing, health, allied health professions, and graduate studies. On the Riverside is an undergraduate liberal arts college and the school of education. Annual enrollment averages 3,000.

The university began as a medical school at Loma Linda in 1905. A recent student at Walla Walla College, College Place, Cook will begin the four year dental program in August. Stampede tickets NAMPA Tickets for the 56th Annual Snake River Stampede will be available through the Stampede ticket booth in Nampa starting at 9 a.m. on June 28, according to ticket sales chairman Gary Doorn. The booth will be located on the street at 12th Ave.

S. with opening hours being generally the same as those of the retail stores. For information or to order tickets by phone the ticket booth can be reached by calling 466-4641. Residents of the Boise area will be able to purchase tickets from the Boise Stampede ticket booth which will be opened at 9:30 a.m. on June 29.

The outdoor booth will be located on Ninth Street on the corner by the Baker Shoe Store. Humbug. Because of the rivalry of King Azaz and his brother Mathemagician, the ruler of Digitopolis, the two beautiful princesses, Rhyme and Reason, have been banished to the Castle in the Air. Milo's quest is to return the princesses and bring peace to the kingdoms of words and numbers. On the way, he visits the Island of Conclusions which can be reached only by jumping.

He also meets half a child well, .58 to be exact. "What is the rest of your family like?" Milo asked the child. "Oh, we're just the average family," he said thoughtfully, "mother, father, and 2.58 children and, I'm the .58.31 Of course, all ends well, and there is a beautiful finale with all Milo's new friends before he passes back through the tollbooth. It is hard to imagine a child of any age not liking this book and adults, too, should find it just as much fun. Because "The Phantom Tollbooth" is the kind of book the reader is always interrupting someone with to read a passage, it would be a great choice for family reading aloud this summer.

Different approach to art galleries Different approach TWIN FALLS EtCetera sells local artists work as one of Twin Falls' art outlets. Nick and Kelly Bond, owners and operators of EtCetera, said they opened this shop to attempt to find a different approach to art galleries. "The primary purpose of Et Cetera is to accept art work without passing judgment, which is the said Mrs. Bond. Mrs.

Bond says the shop is not a full-time commercial operation as their first interest is music and both are wellknown Twin Falls musicians. According to Mrs. Bond, the gallery is primarily a pastime to help local artists find a market for their creations. Art work is accepted on a commission basis. Much of the work in the shop comes from College of Southern Idaho students who use sales to help with college expenses, says Mrs.

Bond. The shop is open until 9 p.m. seven days a week. A variety of works are available in oil paintings, sculpture, leather works, jewelry, etc. Summer story hour slated in Ketchum KETCHUM A summer series of the children's story hour is set for each Monday and Friday, July 5 through July 30, at the Ketchum Library, reports Mrs.

Louis Mallane, director of the pre-school program. This marks the first summer story hour sponsored as a community service by the Ketchum-Sun Valley Library. Due to past popularity of the fall and spring series, it was felt by the board of directors this third program should be given. The program is offered to 4 and 5-year-olds only and mothers are requested to respect the prescribed age limits and not enroll younger children. The hour-long, twiceweekly program begins at 10 a.m.

and youngsters must be picked up by parents at 11 a.m. Games, songs, crafts and stories will be featured.
