Dorothy Dix
Wife Should Make Effort to Show
Interest in Husbands Activities

DEAR MISS DIX: I have a
problem which may seem small
to you but is important to me. ]
wish you could give me some ideas
on how to be a better partner to
my husband. First Of all. he is
very we'll educated and I am not;
he is interested in all the daily
activities which do not interest
me; he can sit and carry on a
conversation for hours while ]
can say what have TO say in
minutes. He is very neat, I am
not. He likes sports and I wouldn' I
give two boots for all of them. ]
would like to be interested in the
things he likes but for the life OF
me I just can't avoid being bored
with them. When he talks about
his work, my mind is miles away
He is a wonderful husband
thoughtful and generous. He re-
fuses me nothing I want and we
get along very well. surprisingly
enough, but I would like to know
more about the things he likes.
CORINNE T.
Answer-It certainly is very sur
Iprising that you and your husband
get along so well when you are
completely disinterested in every
thing he likes. 1t is more surpris-
