TERRACE HERA

LD, TERRACE,

Ask Ann Landers
Should wives
be told when

husbands play?

DEAR ANN LANDERS; Three years ago, an attractive
couple (1 will call them the Joneses) moved next door, Their
children and our children hit it off together immediately,
We became close friends and after several months the
Joneses joined our country club and were accepted as a pap-
ular addition to our social set,

Last June Mrs, J, became suspicious of Mr. J.’s affection-
ate glances at another woman in our crowd. When she told
me of her fears I assured her she was imagining things.
My advice was, “‘Have faith in your husband and don't listen
to petty gossip,’

Three weeks ago she caught them, The circumstances
left nothing to the imagination. Within the hour Mrs, J,
burst into our home and in the presence of my husband and
children she called me a “liar and a phony friend.’’

She insisted that I had known of the affair all along and
that I intentionally misled her to protect: the guilty parties
because [ was “‘on their side.” I confess 1 had heard the
rumors (as had everyone in town) but 1 knew nothing for cer-
tain.

I have seen Mrs, Jones on several oceasions since that
horrible episode but she does not speak to me, Please tell
me if you feel she is justified in her behavior.

B.B.C,

DEAR B.5.C.: Mrs. J. was obviously shattered by her
discovery (who wouldn’t be?) and her anger took a strange
turn, -
No real friend ever passes on to a wife rumors about
her husband — even if she knows for certain they are true,
Olten a wife who is aware of her husband’s philandering
pretends ignorance. The wife who is “unaware” can hold.
up her head and preserve her dignity,

“Friends” who take it upon themselves to inform these
wives do them no favor. An informed wife is rebbed of her
dignity and deprived of her refuge. Often she feels she must
ask for a divorce although she doesn’t want it.

Don’t defend yourself, Be civil to Mrs. J. even though
she is behaving poorly toward you, You did the right thing
and one day she will come to understand it.

DEAR ANN LANDERS; My husband and I have a running
argument every summer, 1 would like to get it settled
once and for all during the winter when we tan both be more
objective.

We live in the suburbs and I doa lot of driving. During
the summer I find it easier to drive barefoot. My husband
says this is not only dangerous, but illegal. Yes or no?

~ BAREFOOT CONTESSA

DEAR CONTESSA: The laws vary. In Elinois it is not
‘illegal to drive barefooted, While the motor vehicle depari-
ment does not recommend barefoot driving a spokesman
said both men and women often remove their shoes on long
trips, He added this word of caution; “If you want to take off
your shoes, take off your stockings, also, Nylon is slippery
and your foot could easily slide on the brake,”

DEAR ANN LANDERS: Pm <6 and falling fast for a
real sharp guy. I want our relationship to be meaningful
and [ want it to last.

The problem: Mr. Wonderful has trouble with his hands.
They keep turning up places where they don’t belong. I
told him last night for the 10th time, ‘Hands off or there’s
the door,” He accused me of sounding like a a broken record,

If you or anyone in your family

sumer division of the depart-
ment of national health and wel-
fare says you can minimize the

It says the uSual sources of
contaminated food are unpasteur- | *
ed dairy products, uninspected
meat from diseased animals, pre-
paration of foods in unsanitary
surroundings or by people with
infections, or exposure to flies
or vermin or dust,

You can "begin minimizing the
‘chances of petting contaminated
foad by buying from reputable
dealers and patronizing clean
stores.
Be sure the meat you buy has
the official stamp of government
approval. *
“Remember. vacuum - packed
meat is perishable and must bey
