DEAR ABBY: I have one of the best husbands in the world, and I know it. He puts in a 9-hour day of hard work, and then comes home and helps me with the housework. He keeps all the floors waxed and polished. He takes care of the woodwork, keeps the windows sparkling, and he even does the washing and ironing (yes, I said ironing) when I am behind in my work. Last week he canned 100 quarts of peaches. Now, here is my problem. He isn’t ‘very roving. It would mean so much to me if he would just be a little more affectionate, I am only 33 and he is 36. NEEDS AFFECTION DEAR NEEDS: Maybe he’s tired! ! DEAR ABBY: Our daughter is having in-law trouble and she isn't even married yet. When her future in-laws saw the wedding invitations, they hit the ceiling because their names didn't appear along with ours. We checked all the etiquette books and the first class printers and engravers in town and they, agreed that in no instance should the names of the groom's parents appear on the invitations. Well, to make a long story short, we had to have ANOTHER set of invitations made up to keep peace in the family. So, Dear Abby, in your role of peace-maker, please suggest that everyone have TWO SETS of wedding invitations made. One to be socially correct, and the other to keep peace. FATHER OF THE BRIDE DEAR FATHER: You are to be admired for your generosity, but I doubt if your suggestion will be taken by many. In putting on ‘weddings, most people would rather be socially correct than “friendly.” —0— DEAR ABBY: The person who wrote in to say it was “unhealthy” for a husband and ‘wife to sleep in the same bed reminds me of the mother who wouldn’t kiss her baby because it might spread “germs.” Personally, I couldn't wait to find a man I truly loved Nuls to hot water bottles and electric blankets to keep me warm. There is nothing wrong with sharing a bed with your husband. That's the way the good Lord intended it to be. If married folks would throw off the thin beds and go back to the big old-fashioned double bed, there would be fewer divorces, NO PROBLEM DEAR NO. And to that , say “AMEN.” What's a poke in the ribs or an occasional cold foot in your back compared to together ness? —0— CONFIDENTIAL TO'N’: You never realize how fast a month can go by until you pay alimony. Think it over. How's the world treating you?
