BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: We have two daughters-in-law who had a big verbal battle several months ago and are not speaking to each ot her. We have managed to stay out of this -- but a couple of weeks ago one of the girls in vited us to a party in their home, we attended, and had a wonderful time. But now the other daughter- in-law has stopped having any thing to do with us, on the grounds that we sided with the other girl when we attended her party. What can we do now? IN THE MIDDLE DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: There’s really not much of any thing you can do, other than to remain strictly neutral in this childish squabble between two “little girls,” and hope that some day they will decide to grow up. Incidentally, have you ever had a private little discussion with your two sons about the possi bility of their doing something to help restore harmony between their wives? DEAR SALLY: I was recently invited, along with a couple of other bachelors, to the home of a friend for dinner, and I was very much embarrassed to find that the other fellows had brought little gifts to our hostess, while I came empty-handed. I sort of got the impression that our hos tess was a little disappointed in me, too. How about this? Is a person who is invited to dinner really supposed to come across with a gift of some kind for his hostess 0 ODD MAN OUT. DEAR ODD MAN OUT: This is not really a “must’ -- but still it is nice when a man, es pecially a bachelor, is thought ful enough to bring a little token of appreciation to the hostess who is entertaining him in her home at dinner. DEAR SALLY: My father doesn’t like the fellow I am dating at present. He says Joe is much too sloppy in his manner of dress, his appearance, and his manners, and also that he’s very shifty- eyed and never looks directly at you when you talk with him. So far as I am concerned, I get a- long fine with Joe, and the only thing about him that bothers me is his tendency to drink too much now and then, but he has pro mised faithfully to cut this down if ever we decide to marry. Do you think I should ignore my father’s opinion and stick with Joe 0 WONDERING. DEAR WONDERING: Your fat her’s summation of Joe plus your own concern about his drinking problem doesn’t add up to a very attractive picture. Joe sounds to me like anything but ideal hus band material. DEAR SALLY: My husband has in the past turned down two fine promotions with his company, just because they involved moving to another city and his parents objected strenuously to his “de serting” them and depriving them of the “joy of seeing their grand children frequently.” Now there’s another big promotion in the off ing, likewise involving a transfer to another city, which I am sure his parents will again tearfully object to. Please, we need advice! BAFFLED DEAR BAFFLED: Decisions like these are for you and your husband to make, not his parents. And certainly the older folks’ attitude is out-and-out selfish. I say, take this latest opportunity. After all, there will be nothing later to prevent you and the older folks from exchanging plenty of visits.
