ANN LANDERS Tactless Wife Dear Ann Landers: Does any- one really want an honest opin- ion? I am beginning to think they do not.

Weight! tables, even those giving a range for small, medium and large frame, do not accurately measure the amount of fat. The thickness of the layer of fat can be measured with cali- pers. Your doctor can determine how much of your weight is in body fat, with the use of cali- pers. Various places may be measured -- the triceps, that spot on the underside of upper arm; the subscapular skin fold, just under shoulder blade; and the -abdomen or diaphragm. These areas are good indices of all-over fatness. by no means clear. College foot ball linemen are generally over- weight; they are not generally obese. Conversely, some ex- tremely sedentary persons can be obese without being mark- edly overweight. Without a direct measurement of adipos- ity, the diagnosis of obesity can- not be certain."' It is the suggestion of these scientists that of all existing methods of measuring body fat on which a definition of obesity might be based, caliper deter- mination of skin-fold thickness offers the greatest promise in terms of practical application.

Today, instead of answering with the usual rules about up- dating your skills I'm replying to this question with the story of one woman over age 40, who returned to work in an office after being home for 14 years. Specifically, she's Ruth P. Aceto of Manchester, Conn., now an executive secretary.
