Dorothy DIX o. s xs:.'; l.. s' ;;..: Crime


a MAN correspondent propounds
~ this riddle:
Why is it that although the
average young woman is very anxious
to become a wife and mother, when she
marries and has sons of her own, she
makes no effort to teach them to look
upon marriage as a duty?"
Why? Because the average woman is
just a plain, ordinary. selfish human
being, and not a pin-reather altruist.
Every mother of a son goes through
two GethSemaneS-once when she,
brings a man child into the world, and
again when she sees him married. This
is beyond all reason. 1t is just part of
the mother nature.
A woman knows that her son should
marry, that it is part OF the scheme of
nature that he should marry and found
a home and family of his own. She also
knows that it Is best for him to marry.
that he is likely to be a better man, to
be healthier, happier and more prosper
Gus if he does marry.
Nevertheless, in her secret soul, she
hopes and prays that he won't marry,
and that she will never have to go
through the agony of seeing him love
some other woman better than he does
her. This is the secret of the strife
between mothersinlaw and daughters
inlaw. They are hereditary foes before
ever the daughterinlaw is born.
Looks On 1t as a Calamity.
When a woman feels this way about
her prospective daughterinlaw and
looks forward to her sons marriage as
the greatest calamity that can ever be-
fall her, it is easy enough to see why
she doesn't teach a son to regard mar
rage as q duty. None Of us make very
plans about our own flu
neral.
~. They bring them up to marry and
with the idea of marriage always held
firmly before them as their ultimate
destiny.

MaaAmLs4o1

But nobody ever says word TO
little boy about what he should do OF
shouldn't do when he is married He
isn't prepared for matrimony in any
way. The whole subject is treated as
if marriage was as much Of an acct
dent as being struck by lightning, and
so little likely to befan a man that it
really wasn't worth while for him to
carry around a lightning rod
Yet the vast majority of men marry
and women know it, but in spite OF
themselves each one can't help hoping
that somehow, by some chance, her
own precious darling son will escape.
AT any rate, she isn't going to bring
the catastrophe upon her own head by
representing marriage to him as duty
and thus precipitating her doom upon
herself before time
WOman's Greatest Crime.
To my mind, woman's greatest crime
against woman is her attitude on this
subject. Little as mothers may like 1t,
it is their chief business in life to pro-
vide husbands for other women, and
not only to provide husbands, but TO
provide good husbands.
1t is in mothers province to teach
a boy to treat all women with courtesy
and respect. 1t is the mother who can
drill into her son the fact that the wire
who keeps the house and makes the
home, is entitled to a liberal allowance
of money and should not be Inundated
by having to ask for every penny as II
she were beggar. The mother can also
teach her son that just to support
wife isn't doing a husbands duty by
her-that she needs also tenderness and
sympathy and appreciation.
Rabfd Jealousy of Mothers.
Every woman who has a SON could
give some other woman a good hus-
band if she would, and it is nothing
but her. rabid jealousy of this other
woman that keeps her from doing
it. That is brutal truth that mothers
will do well to face.
