The weather was perfect and the fair drew large crowds. One artist had six paintings on easels. The rest were on the sidewalk, reating against a building. A woman came by with a poodle, He was ona leash (we have leash laws in this city) but she wasn't paying much attention to him. Suddenly the dog lefted his Jeg, and you guessed it—all over the artist's watercolor landscape. The woman seemed in no hurry to jerk her dog away from the painting. She waited till he had finished and then she said to the artist, “I'm sorry, I hope it dries up O.K.," and walked on. I witnessed the whole thing and have the clod’s name and address, Should I give it to the artist and encourage him to sue? . —Thoroughly Disgusted Dear T. D.: Such lawsuits are usually more trouble than they are worth, but ii the lady whose dog did the dastardly deed reads this column, I hope she will contact the artist and purchase the painting whether she likes it or not, =r - < Dear Ann Landers: Please don't take what I am about to say as an insult.

Please translate: What isa “Briss”? What isa “meshugener"? What docs “chutzpah” mean? What is a “kluta"? —Connecticut Yankee Doodle Dandy Dear Dan: A “Briss” is the Judaic ceremony at which a male child is circumsized. A “meshugener” is a crazy person. “Chutzpah” Means guts—or unmitigated gall. A “klutz” is a clod or an inept, clumsy oaf. e Sorry I threw you, Buster, but I figured the folks who didn't know what those words meant would ask an'M.0.T. (Member of Our Tribe).
