The Wife Who Is a Buffer

~ HAVE been a buffer between you and your mother for eighteen
I years." she said with spirit. But now I'm going to quit"
She was a little, tired-ookIng woman, but she had called up
III enough grit to take a stand for better conditions in the home.
Her situation is not the only ne of it's kind N the country. Many
another wife has played the part of buffer between husband and domestic
troubles. Many a husband has been a buffer between his wife and the
hardships OF the world. How far is husband or wife called upon to be a
buffer? How long should the condition endured
This woman had sunk her individuality, her every personal ambition,
to shield her husband from all the little petty annoyances of a home in
which N exceedingly disagreeeble mother-nlaw had done all she could
to make trouble. She vas an exceedingly dtssgreeable woman before she
was a mother-inlaw. Being a motherin-law had not brought out the
captIous, petty, faultfnding traits that made her a thorn in the flesh
wherever she went. None of the other inlaws would have her to live
with them. But this little daughterinlaw had taken her in and stood
bravey at her post Of pouring oil on the troubled waters Of the home, SC
that when the husband returned at night, everything should be peaceful
and serene and apparently happy.
And he accepted this situation complacenty He knew the sort of
woman his mother vas. He could not help knowing that at times, she
made his wife unhappy. But his motto was: Let sleeping dogs lie"
When he m home att night, he as tired. He wanted peace. And since
he found peace, he didn't ask It's price.
Without doubt q wife should stand between her husband and many
of the petty difficulties Of the home-lfe. just as he stands between her and
the hard problems Of earning the living But the danger is that both
husband and wife may slip unconscously into the attitude OF letting the
other endure too much. 1t Is a habit that grows. 1t is pleasant to be
sheltered and protected. And W. may 1uxuriate in 1t to such a extent
with this protection enduring moro than is Just.
Then again, it must be born in mind that though the mar is nounany
earning the living, the wife Is doing her shire IN managing the home.
Many a sasy-goins husband still cherishes the delusion that he is the
worker, and that his wife has the easy end of the load. Therefore he
looks upon it as his due, that all home difficulties shall be shoothed from
his path. But in the marriage partnership, she is probably doing just as
much as he and though 1t is part Of her work to smooth out the home
difficulties, there may come a time when these make Ter end of the load
the heaviest. And then he ought to turn in and shoulder his share.
Each is a buffer up to a certain point. But the eyes of love ought to
be keen enough to see where Interference is necessary and help needs to
be given. Else 1t may con to the point, as tn this case, where n IT the
other decides to stand It 10 longer. And when a feeling of rebellion, or a
sen.e of injury, creeps in. the happiness of the home is in danger of being
destroyed

years experience with a high school
would doubtless guard us against
some mistakes in establishing con-
solidated schools.
Third, the establishment of a
high school would be a matter Of
economy. | am not prepared to
say how much it would cost to es-
tablish and maintain such school,
but | am sure that it would keep
several thousand dollars within the
county that are now being spent
each year by our teachers who go
out OF the county to get the adj
vantages that such a high school
would give them. Since talking
with several teachers, who took
the summer course at Knoxville,
and some who went to other places,
| estimate that while not more
than one-half of our teachers took
any kind Of training course, last
summer, not less than 81, 900 was
spent out of the county for this
preparation. | believe that this
amount invested annually in a
high school would give every
teacher in the county as much
training as this one-half received
by going out of the county. But.
laying all this aside, it is not
cheaper education that we are
seeking, but more efficient educa-
ton. Experience has taught me
that when | 90 into a shoe store
not to look for cheap shoe.
Cneap goods are usually very
costly ones.
Should the county court decide
to establish such a school, | sug-
gest that the board appointed to
select central location and pur-
chase suitable lands that agricul-
ture and domestic science may be
taught in connection with other
branches. | also suggest that this
board visit the high school in our
sister county of Henry and get the
advantage of their experience.
Now, let the honorable county
court remember that so far as this
proposition reaches, the welfare OF
the rising generation is in your
hands. May you consider their,
interests in your deliberations and
act as your best Judgment may
dictate. w. N. ALTERNATELY.

A HIGH SCHOOL
An Appeal to the County Court
for Such a School

Some weeks past | noticed an
article in the Carroll County Dem
ocrat, signed by Prof. E. H. Har-
rell, concerning the establishment,
in Carroll county, of a County
High School. | believe conditions
are now ripe for the establishment
of such an institution and for rea-
sons herein assigned ! hereby in
sist that our honorable county
court take up the consideration of
this matter at its next January
term.
First, the demand for a higher
Tor rather a broader) education for
our children is,imperatiye. Unless
our school keeps pace with our in
dustries in the line of progress
they cease to fulfill the purpose
for which they were created. The
purpose of the school is to prepare
the young for the duties Of life.
FROM this it is plain that the
school of the nineteenth century
will not prepare a child for life in
the twentieth century. | insist
that the schools of Carroll county
are not adequate to meet the de-
mands of progress, and for this
reason the high school should be
Second, a good high school in |
the county would serve as a model
for the much desired consolidated
school. It is evident that consoli-
dation cannot be secured until the
people have been educated to its
necessity. True, the high school
would not be the same thing as
the consolidated school, but few
