Dear Mrs. Post: have recently
moved to this town and expect to
live here the rest of my days
Naturally ! want to make friends
and not enemies. 1 think I may
have already started off on the
wrong foot. This Is why: Mrs. A.
called on me before she went away
on trip. and then returned,
bringing me gift. This last time
she asked me not to tell Mrs. B.
Through whom l had met her)
that she had been around to see
me after her return, and not to
tell her that she had brought me
a gift. I didn't like this idea, but
what could l do but agree? This
morning Mrs. b. stopped in to see
me and she asked me point-blanh

ter to tell Mrs. A. that you would
not yourself volunteer any infor

should ask you point-blank whethe

to say that You had. The onl,
