I was engaged to a fellow for eight years, and then he suddenly went off and left me. I was so mad I married the next one who came along.

Of course, it didn't work out, and I am now separated from my husband and waiting for my divorce to come through. It Just happens that there is an-other fellow who wants to marry me when I am free and, while I love him very much, I'm not sure if 1 ought to marry him or not. He is very Jealous, and if I even go to the movies with a girl friend, he follows me, because he thinks I may be going to meet another fellow. The funny thing is that he likes to flirt with other girls and laughs at me if I object. He isn't very steady about working, either, but Is always finding fault with a Job and quitting it.

Dear Miss Fairfax: I am 26 years old, unmarried and unhappy.

The reason I am unhappy Is because I am unmarried, and the reason 1 am unmarried is well, that's what I want you to tell me, because I guess nobody ever really knows the reason why nobody has ever asked them to marry. I'm reasonably good-looking, have a Job I like very much and people seem to like me. Men are always friendly and pleasant to me, but they rarely ask me for a date1. I wish I knew why. Peggy B.

Dear Peggy B. Any girl who can write as good a letter as yours is intelligent enough to solve a problem, even a problem as seemingly hopeless as you believe yours to be. What may well be the trouble with you is that you don't have enough interests and enthusiasms to make you a stimulating person the kind of person whose company everybody enjoys. Think maybe that might be the reason? You'ye probably been analyzing yourself till you're all confused, trvinz to make vour own diaimosis of what's the matter with you. nm i.rigmr wen, mm inmg lor you to do is to stop spending so much time inside yourself with your thoughts and get busy outside yourself.

Join some clubs; take part in some community activities that will bring you in contact with lots of other people; take a course in some hobby where youll find both men and women doing the same. To share common interests is the best and easiest way In the world to ma Is friends, because when you're thinking about the interest, you let yourself go, and forget to think about yourself and how vou're doing socially.

By V.G. Rogers LONDON CALLING NORTH POLE.

By H. J. Giskes (British Book Center; 13.50) This is a wartime spy thriller, supposedly true, that out-thrills most spy fiction you might lay hands upon. It relates that German counter- espionage group gained control of the Allied spy and sabotage or ganization in Holland for 18 months in 1942 and 1943. As a result, more than SO Dutch and British agents were lured to captivity and in most cases to death, 13 four-engined bombers were destroyed, score of consignments of supplies Intercepted and Allied intelligence messed up.

Incredible? Even the publishers of this book admit that. Bift Giskes, former chief of German military counter espionage in Holland, Belgium and northern France, vouches for the story, which' is his own. It is rather poorly written, which makes it seem somehow all the, more authentic. Giskes was Impelled to write it, he asserts, because the German government broke its word that the captive agent, would not be executed. Like most Ger mans, One discovers these, days, he waa against Hitler.

Giskes achieved his coup, ne relates, by capturing one 'agent. getting him to "play back" his radio transmitter to London as If nothing had happened. Prom that beginning, Giskes lured more and more agents across, built up a fake Allied spy ring. In an equally amazing epi logue, the agent who "played back" his transmitter explains he was doing It according to plan, that he gave London plenty of coded warnings 6f what waa going on, but that for some reason headquarter never tumbled.
