soudding into the cloudless sky of her
bridal existence
The picture she 'got him to take
down was a little photograph of a
boyhood sweetheart. Six years before
he even met the woman who is now his
wife, that sweetheart was married.
But, in memory of his happy child
hood, he has always kept that little
picture of his first love. 1t surely
means no more=if as much-to him
as the ID" he won at college and still
wears so proudly on his sweater, or the
baseball bat which he still cherishes
because it was with 1t that he helped
to win that great game of sixteen years
ago.
Poor. foolish, little Mrs. Newlywed.
She is one OF those unfortunate
women-unfortunate both for them
selves and their husbands-whose
ideal of marriage is that a wife should
be not only the most beloved being on
earth to her husband but the only per-
son whom he cares anything about.
She is Jealous of his dog, his mother,
his men friends, his club, his business,
his golf. his childhood, and even of his
possible widowhood.
She is above all, most unwilling
that he should ever admire any quail
ity, no matter how fine, in any other
woman than herself.
Poor, short-sighted creature not to
realize that narrowed interests make
narrow men ana tndt Wn1le She is try
ing to make what she considers an
ideal husband, she is also trying to
spoil worthwhile man.
She may find unhappiness in failure.
She is just as apt to find it in sue
cess.
1 know woman whose husband is
a great enthusiast on lawn tennis. One
of his w1fe's friends is also very fond
of this sport. When she comes to the
house, or wherever they meet her else
where, the husband Immediately de-
votes himself to her and talks of ten
mis-. Sometimes he takes her to tour
naments, and often they spend whole
afternoons playing
His wife is not strong enough to play
tennis and is not really interested in
the game. although, for her husbands
sake, she has learned to talk intelli-
gently about it. People sometimes
wonder if she is not Jealous of the
woman who can meet him on this
ground. Once, someone was foolish
enough to carry this suspicion to her.
She just laughed.
My husband and t. she said, f'have
hundred interests in common-our
babies. our books, our music, our
home, and so on. Am / to be afraid
to let him share just one interest with
another woman? 1 know my husband
loves me and admires me more than
any other woman on earth. Am l to
be Jealous because he enjoys and ad-
niires another woman's tennis playing?
1 think that would be simply childish"
If there were more women with this
attitude toward married life, I feel
sure there would be that many more
happy marriages to confute the cynic
Don't you?

the influence of women in civic affairs
has been great, and the results testify
to the ability and the public spirit of
the women of that city. They are re-

new office of recording secretary.
Professor Pearson, superintendent of
the schools of Kansas City, Kan. ap
peared at one of the sessions of the
convention and presented a plan for
the organization of the mothers of the
school children that appealed to the
women of the convention, and here
it is: Each school sends out cards of
invitation, signed by the teacher or
prin cipal, to the mothers of the pupils
to meet and organize the Mothers
Department. Each woman who re-
ceives such a card, if she wishes to
become q member, signs it and re-
turns it to the sender. The meetings
are held in the school building, and
the program, which is carried out by
the best educators and speakers that
can be obtained, is outlined on the
card. The subjects for lectures for the
present year are: Health conditions
of the School. Physical Surroundings,
Contagious Diseases, The Ear, Eye
and Throat, Organized Play, Habit
Formation. Distribution of Time and
Amount of Work, Associations and
Companions, Civic Influences and En-
vironment, Social Evils and Tempta-
tions. The purposes of the organiza-
tion are given as follows To bring the
teacher and parent together in more
perfect and sympathetic understand
ing, to study the child as he is related
to the home and the school, to secure
healthful conditions and surround
ings, to improve the schools by the
united effort of the pupils, teachers,
and mothers, and to bring the parent
and teacher into closer friendship.
A number of meetings of all the or
ganizations of the city are planned for
the year. The mothers of the pupils
in the grade schools of Kansas City
are showing a good deal of interest in
the plan, and it's success will probably
lead other towns to follow it's example.
