DEAR ABBY

DEAR ABBY: I am married
to a lawyer. I heard from q
reliable source that one day
last week my husband and a
young woman checked into a
motel together. When / con-
fronted him with this accu-
sation he admitted it. saying
lawyers had to meet their
clients in some odd places.
He claimed that the young
woman was seeking a divorce
and didn't want to be seen
going into a lawyers office
because people would talk, so
he met her at a motel. Is this
possible? SUSPICIOUS
Only with reservations, my
dear.
DEAR ABBY: My husband
and I have been happily mar
ried for IA years. We have
four children. 1 guess you
could call us average people.
A few days ago my aunt came
to me with a shocking tale.
She said when she was here
for supper last week. and my
husband drove her home, he
made advances to her. Now.
Abby. she is a 63-year-old
spinster and there is no rea-
son for her to make up a
story like that. When I told
nv husband about it. he de-
MED it. 1 have to know the
truth, Abby. 1t is her word
against his. I have never
known my husband to lie.
But my aunt practically
lives in church, so / can't
doubt her, either.

lied to yOu-believe him.
Your aunt has either q king
sized Imagination or a tongue
loose at both ends. Both are
equally dangerous.

Educators as well as par

most important factors in

First, the student does not
know any better way of
learning than the one he is
using. He may realize that he
does not study as much as
he should. His parents may
point it out. His counselor
may recommend that he set
tie on a regular study time
and place.
But, no one has taken the
trouble to show the student
a better way of studying!
His study plan may have
been successful for years,
only to fail him in high
school or college.
