Teen-Age Girl Should Return Gift With Stern Letter

DEAR MISS DIX: I am a teen-age girl who is having trouble with a boy who tells everybody that I am his girl, and who tries to monop- olize me. I can't even speak to another boy without his announcing that I am his girl and for every other boy to stay away from me. I don't even like this boy and I have told him that I wouldn't stand for it. but it doesn't iriake the slightest difference. l-le keeps on hi1?!‘ around me and driving everybody else away, and 1 don't know wha to , ' do. 0n my birthday he gave me a handsome pres- cnt. What must I do? TEEN-AGE! WRITE LETTER

DEAR DOROTHY Dlxz‘ Whenever my wife differs with me enl

vb t he says: "You are a liar." I resent this for I have lived gntlriitlhfjiilc lisfe for half a century and am not accustomed to havini such derogatory terms applied to me. When ‘we are out in company and she howls this insult at me. I get down-right embarrassed. What shall I do to tone down this new wife of mine? T M

ANSWER: If you have lived to be 50 years old before marrying arid then have gotten a wife who rwt only is a shrew but is lacking in even common and good manners, you are certainly to be pitied.

ANSWER: 1 think it would be much better for yv" W My "i"! your aunt if she wants you vlit-h her. It will not make your father happy if you go back, because you will always be s. source of discord between him and his wife. nor will it add to the children's hlfllflfll- for your stepmother will turn against them if they side with you.

The best thing you can do is to work hard and fit yourself for some occupation by which you can support yourself.
