Dear Sally BY SALLY SHAW DEAR SALLY: Do you think I'm wmng in insisting that our baby sitters do their sitting alone, that is that they-not be permitted to have ! either their girt friends or boy friends visit with them while they are working for us? Some of our friends think I'm being too strict and narrow-minded about this—but it's my conviction that the care of our children should come first, that this is the reason wf are hiring our sitters, and that a titter who is en tertaining "guest" cannot possibly give our children the amount of at tention for which we are paying her. What do you think about this? MRS J. H. G DEAR MRS. J. H. G. I'm with you! The hiring of baby sitters la a business arrange ment, and just as any business employer would not sit still for business hours. Just so you can not permit this while your ba by-sitter Is performing her job. When you pay a baby-sitter, you are paying her for her con tention to your children.

I j found out that she's been dating | other fellow s on the nights I don't j rail on her When I ronfronted het with this, she told me.these are ‘just harmless little dates." that they mean nothing, that they are J'u.-t a mrars of letting her "kirk up her heel'" and have "a last fling" before she settles down to marriage.
