Preaches Hubby Shold Rule: Sued by Son's Mama-In-Law

Chicago, Aug. 24 A husband ought to be the boss in his own house, says William Bartz and a mother-in-law must shoulder the blame for all that happens if she interferes. It was this philosophy that made William Bartz tell Mrs. Lena Wetzel what he thought of her actions as the body of the woman's daughter lay between them. Bartz Insists that he was right in reproaching the mother-in-law for the girl's death. Yesterday Mrs. Wetzel filed suit for $20,000 damages for slander, alleging that Bartz accused her of being indirectly responsible for the daughter's death. Bartz the defendant in the suit is the father of Richard Bartz. When his son's bride of eleven months fell 111, Dr. D. B. Eaton, who has been tho family physician for twenty-four yeara and ushered the young husband into life, was called. Mrs. Bartz was on the way to recovery says Mr. Bartz, Sr., until Mrs. Wetzel by virtue of her ex-offlclo membership in the family as mother-in-law, took a hand. "She came into the house." says j Bartz, "when no one was looking. My son. the girl's husband, was away at his work at the telephone office when she arrived. She put out the old family physician and she brought in her doctor. And now the girl is dead. "I told her that it was her fault that the girl died, and I guess that's why she is suing me. But let her sue and sue. A mother-in-law hasn't any business in the young people's home. The husband ought to be the boss then:. And the husband is the man to choose the doctor. I was the girl's father-in-law, but I didn't interfere. But when my daughter-in-law died and I founi out some things, then I went to tho house and I told Mrs. Wetzel what I knew. Young Mrs. Bartz died ten days ago at her home, 148 West Forty-Sixth street, and a week ago Sunday the

The neighbors In the Southern part of town were very much frightened last night when a great racket was heard in a well known woman's house. Afterwards she laughingly explained that it was merely a great weight falling from her shoulders since she learned the value of rub-a-lac. Everywoman should make a noise like asking for rub-a-lac. Get it from your grocer. father-in-law, who is an undertaker at 4J41 Wentworth avenue conducted the funeral for his son's bride. The dead girl was Miss Elfreda Kizemski, daughter of Mrs. Wetzel by her first husband. The present husband, Mr. Wetzel, is a retired capitalist at 912-j Commercial avenue.
