Letters to Editor:

Dear Susanna:

My dear, you make me feel like the last of the "Ten Little Indians" because, of the four of us on the title page as the editorial staff, I am the only one left not dressing full time or planning to! I don't intend to re- peat all the things I said in No. 54 when Virginia made her similar announcement; I just want to reiterate that YOU are right, and SHE is right-and SO AM I! Each of us to her own, and what you are going to do is, I'm sure, a mature decision . . . for you. As for me, it would send me up the wall in about three days; I know because I've tried it that long (more than once). I love and need BOTH my lives.

Now, word to the readers, and especially to their wives: the odds of a TV going full-time on dressing are NOT 3/1, or anything close to it. It just happens that of the four of us who felt motivated enough to really WORK on this job, I am the sole representative of what I see as the great, unsilent majority. Suzy will make the tenth full-timer out of about 300 I have met THOSE are the odds, 1/30, that you face. Most of us do not have that much femininity in us, nor do we seem to develop it with age, or Myrtle and Marjorie would show some effect as they ap- proach 90. They are both dressing LESS, and not because of lack of opportunity. To each of you out there, go ahead and do YOUR thing- and please, WHATEVER YOU ARE, BE A GOOD ONE!

Sheila Niles, 30-B-2 FPE
