FRIENDSHIPLESS GIRL: If
YOU make some girl friends, I see no
reason why YOU shouldn't go out
with them. How can YOU find
friends? At church, i'm some good
work. BY taking an interest in the
work of the church and in helping
others you will find that your own
troubles and the displeasure you
feel at living at home will not seem
so great TO you. Try it! And then.
some day, things may come right
with your husband. too.
Dear Annie Laurie-Recentlv my

Worried-You are very young "a
haze complicated your whole life i'm
the way You have by marrying the
wrong man because YOU needed com
partnership. and being older than
YOU it was hardly fair for the man
YOU married TO lead you into mat

undecided. 1t is not easy TO put
aside the marriage bond and il
might be we'll TO ask yourself why
the late admirer did not come to YOU
when you needed him most and offer
YOU marriage then. He may be only
flirting with YOU now.
