The resentment felt by the
writer of this letter is more than
justified: II dislike having strang-
ers-or any one. in fact-take the
liberty of asking personal ques-
tions. In doctors Office not long
ago another patient asked me
what I was there for. When later
I told my husband I'd answered
the stranger. To see the doctor,
of course!' he thought I'd been
very rude. But isn't it rude of
some one to ask personal ques-
ton like this? My husband said
the man was only showing inter-
est. What do you think about it?"
am sorry to have to say that
your retort was rude! But I do
agree that it was unthinkably bad
manners for the stranger to have
asked such a personal question.
Perhaps you might have evaded
the question by answering, That's
just what I'm here for-to find
out!"
Wearing a Corsoee
Dear Mrs. Post: My date sent
me a corsage before going to a
dance and I pinned it on my eve
ming bag instead of on my dress.
I was afraid of soiling my new
dress or of putting holes in it and
thought it looked very well on
my bag. Mother said I was rude
to the boy and she wouldn't blame
him for not bringing me any
more flowers. Was I?
Answer: AS long as you showed
enthusiastic appreciation, I can't
see that you were rude in pinning
the flowers on your bag instead of
on your dress. AS a matter of fact,
you were able to show your appre-
citation Of them by picking them
up and admiring them from time

Mrs. Matthew B. Ridgway, wife
of 1t. Gen. Ridgway who this
morning took over Gen. Douglas
MacArthur's position as Supreme
Commander in the Far East, had
mo comment" to make today on
her husbands promotion.
Yesterday. Mrs. Ridgway an
swered the telephone at her Fort
Myer home herself, now an Army
corporal answers it for her.
In an interview yesterday she
told how her little son, Matthew.
jr., only boasted a few words in
his vocabulary when his father left
four months ago to take COM
mand of the 9th Army in Korea.
Two of those words were "bye-
bye" and daddy"
Now, he can make whole SEN
tences and has learned to tell his
little friends that daddy is in
Kowea." 1t. Gen. Ridgway. like
scores of military men, gets word
of his sons conversational prowess
only secondhand. Mrs. Ridgway
dutifully transcribes the latest
childish sayings in her daily letters
to her husband.
Keeping up with Matthew, who
will be two the end of this month,
clipping the numerous magazine
and newspaper stories written
about her husband and an in
creased load Of volunteer work
leave Mrs. Ridgway with her hands
full most of the time. When time
permits she also does oil painting.
This Army wife is an accom-
plished painter. having exhibited
her still-life studies with the Ma
tional League of American Pen
women of which she is a member.
The son and heir. too. already has
shown talent along those lines,
according to his mother. who is
wise enough to keep paints out of
his reach but admits "he does
pretty well with a pencil"
Having spent less than two years
in Washington, Mrs. Ridgway is
remarkably active in civic affairs.
Currently she is working stimuli
taneously on the House and En-
bassy Tour to benefit the Home for
Incurables which will be held Sat
