DEAR ABBY
Husband’s secret life as a serial cheater revealed
Dear Abby: I have been married for 23
years. About a year ago, our 22-year-old
daughter became suspicious that her dad
might be having an aff air. She found out it
was true through his text messages. When we
sat down as a family and discussed it, at fi rst
he denied it. He got upset to the point that he
told our daughter to leave the house, which
she did for two weeks. We asked her to come
back after my husband and I talked to work
things out and I took him to confession. We
later all went away for a vacation together.
Some time has passed, and I looked at his
phone and saw he’s been at it again, this time
with a 30-year-old woman who lives here, and
another one in another state. When I told him
I knew, he denied it. Recently, I’ve been going
to counseling. I need advice. — Suspicious

Dear Really Wants: Please accept my
sympathy for your loss. Because you didn’t
mention how long ago your dog was lost, I
will assume it is fairly recent. You might be
able to regain your parents’ trust if you begin
accepting responsibilities at home. Do they
want you to make your bed, keep your room
neat, help in the kitchen or the yard? Shoul-
dering these kinds of responsibilities can
show parents you are ready for more ... like
caring for a pet, for instance. I wish you luck.

Opie Read, novelist, story-teller and lecturer, proved one
of the most pleasing entertainers on the present course of the
Ellison-White Chautauqua when he addressed his Pendleton
audience last night. The personality of this witty son of the
Old South made its appeal to the audience in no uncertain way.
The Watteau girls, a duo of fun makers, were on the bill this
afternoon. Tonight, one of the red-letter events of the year’s
program will be off ered when the Percival Vivian players
present Peter B. Kyne’s great American play, “Cappy Ricks.”

In 1967, five days of

converting to the metric
system.)

doctoral student accused of
killing 12 moviegoers at a

time. (Holmes was convicted
of murder and attempted
murder and sentenced
to life in prison without
parole.) Penn State’s football
program was all but leveled
by penalties for its handling

tor trailer was found in a

ing ceremony. Cleveland’s
Major League Baseball
team, known as the Indians
since 1915, announced that

and names that were consid-
ered racist.
