DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am 40 years old, married to a lovely wife 36 years old and have a family of four children. I have had steady work for 15 years and have provided well for my family. I have been married + 14 years, don’t drink or gamble and when I am not working IT am home with my family. For the last two years it seems to me that my wife has been very indifferent toward me. We used to visit a lot and lay plans for the future but this is a thing of the past. She never lets her plans be

to cook and under today’s abnormal
wartime lving, it may be necessary, in an emergency, for youngsters to know something about the simple preparation of food.
Mothers today are doing double duty as family cooks and canteen workers; they are assumjng the dual roles of homemakers and civilian defense workers; they are starring as wives while playing “understudy” to a hospital nurse. Therefore, under sheer necessity, we may find our children feeding younger sisters and brothers. Enlist your children in the ranks of junior chefs; let them experiment and use their own ideas and ingenuity. You may be surprised some Sunday morning when they enthusiastically announce “Mother, break¥ast is served” to find before you a batch of blueberry pancakes as light as the stratosphere, or French toast with an international flavor. Let them try the recipes below. FRUIT TAPIOCA 2% cups fruit juice (diluted with water) 12 cup minute tapico 12 cup sugar 14 teaspoon salt

to get out to herself once in a while. a soldier. That made Jim's mother When I ask her to go to the show with me she always has some kind of an excuse. She is a good housekeeper and manager and I realize that she has her hands full, but I lend a helping hand whenever I can. This is all in vain for she does not appreciate the help. I asked her if she would go to town with me one afternoon and she said she would think about it. When the time came to go she went with me but she seemed bored to the very last. I feel that she is a woman who can be trusted. although she has misrepresented things to me at dif-
mad enough to fight. It wasn’t the first time she had heard civilians take that attitude toward the sons of relatives or friends, acting as though the boys in service were off on a holiday with nothing more important to do or think about than writing polite letters to people who weren't close to them and squandering their leaves getting in touch with everybody who might be “hurt” if they failed to do so.

point of view. If you can afford to give your wife a little vacation
‘|by herself it is worth trying.
On the other hand you can’t afford to let your wife push you around with her moods and discontents. After all your life isn’t exactly a bed of roses either. You've worked steadily for 15 years without feeling abused. You come home tired from your job but still will-
have a right to some consideration also and it is up to you to demand it. A man can be too devoted to his amily, too eager to please, too emotionally dependent upon his wife. How about claiming a little free time for yourself for fishing, hunting or whatever else you like to do apart from your family. : It is absolutely true that people cannot live too intimately without ennui. They need to part occasionally and come back together: with new experiences to compare. Otherwise their relationship may grow stale. JANE JORDAN.
