Should a Wife Help
Her Husband as
A Wage Garner +?

A young woman who is earning
n good salary as stenographer is
engaged to be married to
worthy young man, who is also
salaried employe, The mans
wages alone would barely support
them, but the addition of the
wcman's salary would enable
them to not only live in comfort,
but to lay up something for the
future. and this has raised the
question of whether the girl
should give up her job when she
gets married.
This problem is u new one in
social economy, but it is one that
is going to be very common in
the future, as women go more and
more into business, and it is
worth considering.
Statistics show that there has
been an immense falling off in
the number Of marriages between
men and women who form the
workers OF every community.
This is to be explained by the
difficulty Of two people living on
one PERSONS rations.
A man hesitates to ask girl
, who IL drawing salary that af-
fords her cakes and ale to give it
up to come and live on bread and
water with him.
A girl on her part, thinks
long time before she gives up
fat job for n poor husband, and
80 they both stille any tenderness
that they may feel for each other,
and go their lonely ways, when.
if they had only united hand and
heart and earning capacity, they
might have been happy and pros
porous all their days.
In the very highest sense in
which it is possible to conceive of
it, marriage is partnership, and
if the poor man marres n woman
who has the ability TO make
money, SO much the better for
him and for her, for in the end
the firm Of Benedict 81 Co. pros
pers or fails for both.
The first two or three years of
almost every marriage settles the
financial status of family.
If in that time they have got
ten little start up the ladder the
chances are they will go to the
top, hut if they have gotten into
debt or even have not saved a
penny it is safe guessing that
they will always be among the
poor, hard-run people with the
bill collector hammering at their
door.
1t is claimed that the reason
that men object to their wives
earning money is chivalrous de-
sire to save them from labor.
This is rank nonsense.
We need TO take broader view
Of the wage-earning wife, and SO
my advice to the stenOgrapher
who is debating whether she shall
give up her position when she
marries is this:
Hold on to your job, my dear,
for year or two, anyway. Save
your money to help your husband
get n start. To help the man
you love rise in the world is the
greatest privilege that any woman
can know. There will come n
time when there is an opportun-
itv for your husband to get an
interest in the store, or to start a
shop of his own, when a few dol
lars in the bank will be worth
more to him than all the love and
devotion in the world.

Serious trouble has again broken out be-

to cable advices received at the State De-

that one of President Castro's generals
named Montilla, stationed near the border,
finding himself in disfavor with President
Castro fled across the border into Colombia
to place called Cucuta. The Venezuelan
consul there demanded his arrest, and that
ne be delivered to the Venezuelan authori-
ties. That demand was transmitted to Ro-
gotta. and the Colombian government In
structed the local authorities at Cucuta to
arrest the man and send him to the capitaI
pending extradition proceedings But In the
meantime and before that order reached
Cucuta, Montilla made his escape. and he
has not yet been found
PRESIDENT castro was angered at this and
recalled the Venezuelan consul at Cucuta
He also served notice of his Intention to
Withdraw the Venezuelan consul at the CO.
