to call up young married men and youths of 18 to 20, Mrs. Jones, whose husband is 28 years old and not employed in an essential :occupa« ‘tion, went. down

to an employ-|.

ment agency for some advice. - She had never held a steady job, and shedecided ~ it was high time she ~ got busy getting Ruth Millett some kind of wim ve : training so that she could work if her husband should be called into the . army within the next year. RE M8 EVEN if he should receive a .commission—which she very much doubts—she knows she would want a job to keep from feeling useless. But more than likely she will need to help with her own support. She has no children and should Uncle Sam start providing fer Mr. Jones’ care, Mrs. Jones wouldn't have much to do. : After she had given the woman at the employment agency an idea as to her eductation, her aptitudes, ‘and her preferences as to types of work, ‘the woman advised her to take a business course. She has begun it—and she al-

". ready feels less depressed about the

future. ; First of all, because she is doing:

-. gomething constructive, instead of

~ sitting around

worrying. Second-

ly, because she knows that in a

9 short, time she will be well enough

trained so that she can support herself. And thirdly, becalse her husband seems so relieved fo find that he isn’t “married to a helpless, little thing but to a girl ‘who can size up a situation and get busy doing something to improve it. ia ‘. =.
