Answer—Perhaps everyone gets tired of team work at some point or- other in married life and looks back on adolescent freedom with envy. Doubtless you have your days of boredom, too, for life is no bed of roses for a woman who works
Mature people simply learn to put up with a certain amount of tedium without crying for entertainment, One’s work is not always stimulating. There are plenty of routing tasks sorely lacking in interest but ‘which have {0 be done none the: less: A good worker hurries through the montonous side of his work in order to enjoy in the end satisfaction of 8 job well done. He doesn’t quit because he isn’t amused. Likewise, marriage has its monotonous stretches when the partners grow to know each other all too well. Who hasn't secretly yearned for the excitement of new love to quicken his sluggish pulse and revive his bedraggled vanity? ‘The mature person knows how to renounce his desire to renew his adolescence in order to fuifill his responsibility to the family. Your husband’s attitude is quite Juvenile. Possibly he has been temporarily stirred up by a new face but the chances are he will get over it if you keep your head and do not widen the rift between you. Try not to make such a tragedy out of such an ordinary occurrence. Be more matter of fact in your attitude. He will try to find fault with you in order to justify himself, but you need not aid and abet him in this comfort by heavy emotional scenes in which he sees your love for him as a terrible burden. Rather let him admire your calm and courageous attitude. Sit tight. The storm may pass. 2 JANE JORDAN,

We, the Women— Take Tip From Army Wives— Don’t Gossip
By RUTH MILLETT
ports that there isn’t much gossip going the rounds these days, since an officer is held responsible for all talk and action of his immediate family. It’s too bad husbands in civilian life can’t make their wives understand that they also are held responsible for everything their wives. say. They are, too, but only the * smartest wives seem to realize it enough to censor their “conversations accordingly. The others go right on losing friends, clients, patients, and Ruth Millett customers for rE their husbands, without = ever seeming to realize that no one wants to do business with a man who is married to a gossip. It is just too great a risk to take, since most men talk over their business dealings with : their wives. Maybe civilian: husbands could scare their wives into giving up gossip entirely if they could show them how easy it is for a woman’s talk to cut down a husband’s income. If the loss were translated into clothes, furniture, or school tuition it might strike home.
A BUT THE TROUBLE is, few hus-
bands know just how much their
wives gossip.- For though a wife may tell her husband what she heard at her bridge club, she never tells him how much she herself passed on, So while a man knows that women gossip ‘a lot, he always feels that HIS wife is a listener-in—and not
|a passer-on of choice bits of
scandal. If the average husband knew how much gossip his wife repeats in the course of a week, he would soon do something to stop it. For if he has any business sense at all, he knows that it is not just army officers who are held responsible for their wives’ talk—it is also every man whose living depends on others doing business with him.
