UNINVITED GUEST EVIL

Habitual Unasked Callers Are Social Grafters v- Deserve Sharp Insults

DEAR Miss DIX: After nearly s. quarter of a century c! menu. iil; cur domestic affairs succemfuhy. my husbsnd and I are new w“. fronted with a situation we do not know how to handle. Our problem is “the man who came to dinner.’ and because we megs mm wglpgmg n fe times he has practically taken up his abode in our house.

.. I-ie comes 1n without even at any time. day or night. and stays until he feels like leav- ing. l-Ie doesn't take hints. We have tried telling him that we are expecting guests. or that we are giving a parry. or that we are leaving town, but this means nothing to him. He just stays and stays.‘

What can we do. short of insulting him?
