( For And About Teenagers 7l?a/faecd. By FANNIE GLEESON J THIS WEEK'S LETTER: I have this problem and I hope you can-help. I am 18 and my girlfriend is 17. She tells me that she loves me but she still loves the other guy she was going with. We have been going together for ten months. She says she doesn't know what to do. She loves both me and the other guy. He lives in Arizona and we live in California. She doesn't want to break up with me but she doesn't want to tell me how to make her happy. How could I make her forget the other guy and make her happy with me? OUR REPLY: Be clear that it's possible to love more than one person. In fact, we all love each other--and spend a lot of time and energy disguising that! The , next thing is to realize that you are your own umpire. Simply share your feelings with your girlfriend. She's not going to forget the other guy--neither are you. What you both can do is choose to be with each other.

DRAMATIC CAPE FOR FALL There are various types of capes, some having less drape than others. The one illustrated drapes magnificently and makes you feel adventurous and dramatic, whether it's in practical plaid or economical but elegant velveteen. The soft, full hood is a super touch for evening, ready for those first snowflakes, or just falling back, cozy and draped at the neckline. Length may be to or below the knees or ankle-length. With an unlined cape, make finished seams for a more attractive and satisfying effect. The neatest and most durable is the flat fell seam. Sew the initial seam with the WRONG sides of the fabric facing. Press the seam allowances open to blend the stitches. Then, press both seam allowances together to one side. Trim underneath seam allowance to one-eighth of an inch. Turn under the edge of the top seam allowance one-quarter of an inch and press along the folded edge. Baste top seam over under seam, running your basting stitches just inside the folded edge. Machine stitch along^the folded edge. While the cape itself is unlined, you will nevertheless want to line the hood for beauty's sake. To complement a solid color cape, use a stunning silky surah lining; the hood pattern is your guide for the lining. Stitch the center seam and press open. With the right sides of the outer fabric of the hood and the lining facing and the center seams aligned, pin and baste the lining and hood together. Stitch along the front edge of the hood, allowing a I'.AGE 3 - PLA IN DEALER - WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13,1975 five-eighths inch seam. Grade the seam allowance; turn and press. Topstitch through the two layers of fabric to keep them from shifting. Baste the neck edges together and treat as one layer of fabric when applying the hood , to the cape. The hem is the final touch. It requires close attention as it is really a wide swath of fabric cut on the bias. Before sewing the hem permanently, hang the cape on a dress form or on a well-padded hanger for/24 hours. Then, measure accurately on the dress form. Or, in the absence of a dress form, have someone measure the lower edge while you model. Mark the hem edge with basting stitches. Turn the hem up and baste, along the fold. Then, run a line of basting stitches just below the cut edge of the hem. Draw up the basting stitches by pulling the bobbin » thread in order to gather in excess fullness. Place heavy white paper under the cut edge and shrink out as much fullness as possible with a steam iron and pressing cloth. Stitch lace edging to the hem edge and finish sewing the hem with hand-stitching. An alternatie is a narrow hem that is folded under and topstitched. This would be appropriate for doubleknits, imitation suede, and nonravelling fabric. Press, but do not apply a heavy hand. You want a soft fold at the lower edge - not a knife-sharp edge.
