The Marriage Vow
WIFE AS HOME FINANcIER
BY JAMES H. cANFIELD, A. M, IL. D.
(Ex-Presldent Ohio state University

/ this against the business Tor, IN cas-
Of a salary, against family expenseJ,
before the division Is made.
It has been said frequently that this
is entirely impracticable in the case Of
an extensive business, and nothing Is
lost by admitting that there may be
cases to which this general rule does
not apply.
But with far the vast majority Of
laborers, wage-earners. salaried men
and men conducting ordinary business
in the ordinary way, this scheme is
entirely feasible and practical. 1t has
stood the test of years Of practice In
more than one family.
The division having been made,
each may again advise the other, II ad-
vice is sought, as to deposit or invest
ment or use, but neither should offer
unsought advice.
Children may be brought into this
partnership" and may be taught busi-
ness habits by making them serve as
accountants for this Arm" latter they
are old enough to do such work., and
by letting them know all the details
Of this business"
To this may be added small 'in.
terest" in the business" from which
the child will clothe himself or provide
for miscellaneous personal expendit-
ures or even begin savings account
Where there is more than one child
each may be so taught by giving each
this work and this interest, say from
the age Of Is to IS.
It is especially desirable that daugh-
tiers be trained in these business hab-
It's, because they will scarcely get
them elsewhere, while sons may re-
ceive equally good training after they
reach the business world.
Making such notifications In this
general scheme as may be necessary
or seem desirable, in individual cases,
1t will be found entirely feasible.
It's result will surely be lessened
friction, a more correct appreciation
on the part OF each Of the difficulties
which each must encounter in the
care for his or her part Of these mat
tors of mutual interest, and with
clearer understanding there will al
ways come less misunderstanding--a
consummation most devoutly to be
wished.

side, which should be very carefully
distinguished from its religious side
so there are or ought to be these def
mite business relations between two
married people.
This is not the place in which to
discuss the pros and cons of a wom-
ans ability to fulfill her part in the
marriage contract. It will be sufficient
to say that 30 years experience and
observation satisfy the writer that
women are or under proper conditions
become Just as careful and just as &C
curate and just as wise In matters Of
expenditure as men are.
There may come a time wnen both
may be able to command the services
Of expert assistants who will relieve
them of the personal care Of details
and give them leisure for recreation
or more congenial undertakings; but
until that time comes each must be
faithful to his or her trust.
The best plan advanced for deter.
ruining these relations is for each par
ty to make a plain, systematic busi-
ness statement of his or her entire
concerns, at the close Of each month.
Certain expenditures, easily deter
mined, should be charged to family ex.
pense. This charge will cover rent,
taxes, fuel, lights, water, service, food,
household equipment, fire and life and
accident insurance, clothing, etc., for
children as long as these are a charge
upon the family, amounts paid for
books and magazines and the daily
press, and recreation and travelling ex-
penses in which both participate.
These matters being cared for, that
which remains of receipts or profits
ought to be systematically and regu-
larry divided between the two. In the
case of a man with salary, this d.
vision may very properly be half to
each.
In the case of a business man, this
division may perhaps be two-thirds to
the husband and one-third to the wife
since there are some necessary per.
sonal expenses which man must
meet in connection with his business.
It viii be better, however, to charge
