Partnerships flourish, shared enterprise bursts from bud to bloom of a plethora of profit. The only setback to a week of suc- cess may come as a result of diminishing quality of work, itself a result of a heightening of self-confi- dence. So long as individu- ls keep their concentra- tion strong, their stand- ards high, benefits should * be plentiful — and lasting. Personal relationships bring special joy this week, especially those involving children. The response of the very young and the elderly to kindness, sym- pathy, and generosity is breathtaking.

Any year, or. any decade now, she won't be expecting handouts from the old man. My grandboys got a year older, survived various fatal diseases, acquired some very" colorful expressions that I cannol repeat, and elicited - from one beleaguered baby- sitter the statement that they were the worst kids she'd ever tried to handle.
