DEAR TRUSTING -- When a group of young Italian-Cana- dians were invited to a commu- nity centre. dance, the Cana- dian girls who socialized with them found them a bit for- ward. Yet Italian girls find this natural and cope with it. DEAR DORIS -- (1) How long do you have to wait for a divorce to come through once proceedings are started and you've gone to court? (2) The court opens here in September. Would I be noti- fied before this if my husband bride and groom, and their parents usually attend the re- hearsal party. Also husbands or wives. No formal invitations -- just a phone call. You can have a simple buffet supper with a casserole, - rolls, ice cream, coffee. If you are watching your pennies make it just cake and coffee. It's the get-together that counts. DEAR DORIS -- I am 18, engaged to a fellow 24. And now I'm not sure whether I love him or not. He practically worshipped me from the start. There are times when 1 think he is not well enough educated for me. He brags a Hartwick Kincardine United Church, decorated with baskets of daisies and snapdragons, was the setting for the wedding May 9th, 1970 of Joan Louise, daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Wil liam E.

Not Certain DEAR NOT CERTAIN -- (1) If the petition is granted there is a provisional "decree nisi" at the court hearing and this becomes a final "decree absolute" three months later. - (2) No one can be divorced without knowing "about it. You will be personally served with the documents well ahead of the time the case comes up in court. DEAR DORIS -- Is there any truth to the common belief that Italians are a mtich more passionate race? I am very in- terested in one, but my friends warn me that these people are brought up very quickly at home and that our opinions on morals might differ considera- bly. ) As yet, I have not dated this boy and will await your advice. He is 21 and I am-18. 7 ; Trusting Each nation has its own ap- proach to life. Keep in mind that the best matches are made where backgrounds are not too dissimilar; then, if he attracts you, date the young man and find out what you have in com- mon, DEAR DORIS -- I would like to know approximately how many people I should in- vite to the rehearsal party for my son's wedding.

But then he can_be so wonderfully understanding. I try to forget his faults. I have gone out with about 40 boys before and none were as easy to get along with. Sometimes' I feel we belong together and other times I feel . + I am too good for him. I hate myself for it. Engaged But DEAR ENGAGED -- Let's sort this out. There is an age gap of six years. You are bet- ter educated than he is. The bragging is in self-defense. I'm betting you'd be surer of yourself and your love if he sweren't so blessed easy-going. If he is to get a square deal from you, you will have to discipline yourself to keep him from spoiling you. Love can.grow. Are your in- terests mutual? Take a little more time. But: don't depend on young emotions and physi- cal attraction to settle it.
