Dear Ann Landers: I am 42 years old, pregnant and couldn't be 'happier. Please tell me why our friends and rela- tives are doing their best to make me (feel like an object of pity. Our oldest daughter is 21. When I confided that I was expecting a baby she gasped, ' I hope the change of life is playing tricks and you're not really pregnant. I wouldn't know what to tell my friends." My .mother, who is 64, said, "What happened? Did you drink too much at one of those country club dances?" I was amazed that she would make such a crude remark. One friend groaned, "What a rotten break at your age!" When I said we were thrilled she looked at me as if I was crazy and replied, "Well, I certainly admire your courage for putting on such a good act." What shall I say to these needle artists?—BEWILDER- ED AND TONGUE-TIED. Dear B and T: I don't see Why you have to say anything more than "hello" and "good- bye" to these clods. And the closer you can space these words, the better. 0--0--0 Dear Ann Landers: Summer is here and I am hating it. The reason — our swimming pool is attracting folks we haven't seen since last summer, when we put in the pool. What can we do about the clods wtho appear in bathing suits as if we invited them? 'Dheir youngsters walk into our home and use our bathroom and telephone They open the refrigerator and help themsel- ves to cold drinks and snacks, Once upon a time only the wealthy had pools, These people also had servants and all the trimmings. But things are dif- ferent today. We are people of modest means, and we can't furnish maid service and re- freshments to the entire neigh- borhood. Furthermore we built the pool for our own enjoy- ment, and not as an accommo- dation for everyone who feels like coming over. Is there a solution to this problem?—STYMIED, Dear Sty: Yes. But it takes nerve. Tell the free -loaders that the pool has become a problem because too many people are showing up uninvited. Sample: "From now on we are going to ask only a limited number of guests at any one time. We'll be calling you soon." 0--0--0 Dear ,A,nn Landers: I am writing about a friend who has been like a sister to me. We grew up together and I've always done things for her that she couldn't do for herself. The woman is not handicapped, she is just incompetent and unim- aginative. I'm an excellent cook. My friend can't boil an egg. For years I have done the cooking when she has had dinner par- ties. Whenever a guest com- ments on the delicious chicken or the melt -in -your -mouth des- sert, she replies, "Thank you." Not once has she given me credit for anything. Q made her living room drap- eries last fall and it was a big job. When her cousin raved about the draperies, in my presence, she said, "Yes, they are lovely, aren't they?" Wouldn't you think she'd be ashamed? I'd like your views.— SECRET HELPER - Dear Secret: I feel sorry for a person who will take credit: for something she doesn't de- serve. She certainly can't enjoy it much. If you've been close friends for many years she must have some redeeming, qualities, So dwell on those and overlook her pathetic inadequ- cies.
