DOROTHY DI ' Troublemaker At Work

rWomen .Posing As 'Friend Is Trying To .Wreck Marriage

DEAR MISS DIX: Until two years ago, my husband mm 1 had been. separated for six years, due to my illness. There was never any question of divorce. During my absence. my husband, Ray, mnintafn. ed our apartment in the city. He wasyln constant company of B couple who have been very good friends of ours, let's call them Marge and Bill. He was a guest at their home many times, and Carol, a friend of Merges. was also present on many occasions.

Since my return, we have. of course. maln- talned our friendship with Marge and Bill, and here is my gripe. Whenever Marge calls on us, she goes out of her way to bring Carol into the conversation, recalling pleasant times they all had together, etc. I resent this, feeling that Marge is lacking in good taste. and am told that I am unduly sensitive. Now Marge has asked us to a dinner party which is to include Carol. I happen to have a legitimate excuse for not going. but other similar occasions will arise. My husband will probably never see Carol ngain, if Marge doesn't go out of her way to arrange these get-togethers. ,

RITA K.

Muriel Nlasen

ANSWER: To suggest that Marge is lacking in good taste is to ho charitable. Her actions suggest a veritable snake in the grass who is out to make iroublc. Whether she is deliberately trying to create it romzincc liclwecn Ray and Carol is open to question, but she cer- tainly is fairing considerable delight in liarrassing you with her in- slnttattons and rcnilniscences. '

TRY DIRECT ASSAULT

Her friendship can be tested with R dircct assault. Tell her that you fecl Carol has no place in your husband's present life. and that yoti would feel much more at case if Marge helped keep her in the background. A true friend would most willingly co-operate.

Since people who are themselves unhappy love to make others share their misery. I suspect is rift in the lute of Marge and Bill's mtlrlfal bliss Marge possibly suspects Bill of succumbing to Carol's charms and, in her own devious way. is trying to divert attention. If it is at all possible to eliminate Margo from your circle of friends, do so. Don't make too much of an issue of the matter with Ray, hnwcter. Men van. contrariivise, head for the very thing you are trying to haie them avoid. '

DEAR MISS DIX: I am 15 years old and a sophomore in high school. I'm ti very lonely girl. When I'm nilt with a group of girls I can't socm to join in the conversation. though I try hard. Worst of all, I ha'vcn't even had my first date iviii a boy. Boys just don't

notice me. If I go on like this I'll be the most tloivnhearfed girl in the world. ' ANN ANS.WER: Don't consitlor yourself .1 failllrc. Ann, because at 15

you haven't had a date with a boy, Lots of girls who have become very popular waited longer titan tlial. You should be able to get along with other girls, though. Study their conversation. see what to ics.tliey like to dlscilss (besides boys. of course), and learn some- thing tibout these subjects. You'll probably find that they are movies, radio. records and the makers of sumo. if you will send me a stamped. sclf-atldrcssed cnvt-lope. I can send you ll leaflet of mine with some helpful hints on popularity. also a list of books that will help you to be more sociable.

not let me go. PHYLLIS

Wider Shoulders Likely This Winter

LONDON. Aug. 2.4 - (Reuters) - Smart. women will look top-heavy in daytime this winter.

But they will not have to sera. all of their existing wardrobes. The big fashion collections, setting the styles which will be worn this win- ter. show no radical changes. Added Width to the shoulders. achieved by the addition of A wide, shaped stole or cape, and a slim- mlng, by flat-pleating or just plain cutting, of billowing skirts, will bring existing suits and day en- sembles approximately up-to-dlate. skirts will have to be lengthened an melt or two to the new length of 13 inches off the ground. But shoulders remain sloping and the waist. though it wanders slightly here and there in front, remains in its natural position.
