LOUISA'S LETTER

Dear Louisa. My dining room table will seat eight people but my sister has written that she is bringing four people home for dinner. There are five of us here. How will I manage this? D.N.--R.l. Answer: Serve your dinner buffet style and put up two card tables or use separate TV tables. People are much more casual in serving meals today than they were in the past.

Dear P.B. (Colorado): From the limited information you give, it’s hard to offer advice. Generally speaking, though, it is wise and fair to date other boys if your boyfriend is dating other girls, and this will probably make you more attractive to him also.
