friendliness for something more. Most men who deal with
housewives are straight and strictly all business. But it's
best to play it safe and keep your distance.
DEAR TROUBLED: Go to your public library and look
for that person’s name and address in "Who's Who in
America." If you find it. mail back whatever you took. If
you can't find the name and address, write to me and I will
find it for you. | You can trust me. I And if you ever again
want a "souvenir" from a famous person, ask for an auto-
graphed picture.
DEAR ABBY I work in a fairly large office. One of
the girls who works here is being married soon, so a
coworker suggested we girls give her a bridal shower [The
bride-to-be is 30 years old and has been married before So
has her fiance. ]

DEAR SOURED: No. Since you felt that the purpose of
this shower was to "soak" the guests, I don't blame you.
DEAR ABBY I just had a terrible experience. I invit-
ed the gas man into our mobile home for a cup of coffee.
He had been filling our tank for about a year, and he
seemed so nice.
I had just made a fresh pot of coffee and asked him if
he wanted to join me for a cup [My husband had left for
work]
When this man got inside he sat at the table and kept
looking at me funny I felt uncomfortable but kept talking
and sipping coffee Then he said he d never seen a mobile
home like mine before, so I offered to show him around He
kind of cornered me in the baby's room, but I managed to
get out of that situation and back into the kitchen
I kept praying someone would call me Finally, I edged
toward the door, and opened it, and told him I had a lot of
work to do. He left reluctantly
Abby, I am only 22. Am I naive? Was I wrong in
inviting him in for coffee? Do most men who talk to
housewives take this as an invitation for something else?
Was I being forward? I blame myself. I swear I only

The bride made up a list of "suggested shower gifts”
which she mimeographed and distributed to all the girls in
the office. This list is titled "CAN USE" and there are
three pages of "gift suggestions" [typed, single-spaced]
indicating the brand names preferred, and "where-to-pur-
chase ” I She listed everything imaginable from a cork-
screw to a king-sized bedspread! ! ! I
She even submitted dimensions of her living room,
dining room, bedroom anu bath indicating, "Rugs are
needed "
When I saw this list I was turned off completely and
decided not to attend. I declined the shower and told the

souvenir than guilt

DEAR ABBY: I am a maid in a first class hotel.
I Please don't mention the city.] I took something from a
very famous person who stayed here I have admired this
person for years and only wanted a souvenir
What I took may be valuable, and now my conscience 1
is bothering me. I am not a common thief, but I’m not
brave enough to confess, and now I don’t know what to do.
