Since it has developed that Clerk

talk at the court house and else
where about town of having that
official arrested on the charge of

To escape conviction on that charge
it is an assured fact that he will
have to take change of venue

Dear Mrs. Thompson. I am a young
married woman and have three small
children, the eldest being five years
old. Now. my husband is a man that
wants everything his own way, and it
he does not get il he viii fuss and say
awful things right out before the chii-
dren when he gets mad. The little
boy is old enough to notice and to take
it up. Now, I want you 10 tell me
waht to do when ne gets those stub
born spells Should I coax him OF
scoId him? Sometimes he is awfully
good to me and just can't dc enough.
and when he acts that way I am so
glad that 7 am fine to him too. DO
you think that I ought to do that or
Just be stubborn when he is SO Eood2
Sometimes when we are at the ia
BILE, my little boy says that he wants
sugar on his toast. Ny husband eats
salt on his and he makes the little boy
do the same. because he likes it that
way. He won't let me put sugar on
things for the children. He does so
many things that way to have things
the way he wants them. Then he
boasts and says he comes out ahead.
Now, please. Mrs. Thompson, advise
me. for I am sometimes just worried to
death. I love my husband when he
takes good spells and I almost hate
him when he gets SO stubborn.
4 WORRIED MOTHER
Parents ought to be united in the
governing of children. When your
husband says that he wants them TO
have salt instead of sugar, let it be
that way. Don't argue with him when
friction arises. Quietly give him his
own way. Since it takes two to make
a quarrel, you will find that you have
far less trouble if you refuse to feed
the FIRE Of his anger with irritable re-
plies.
7 am sure that your husband is the
kind Of man who needs to be coaXed
rather than scolded. When you want
something your way, 60 about getting
it tactfuIly Instead Of bluntiy stating
what he must do, have a good supper,
compliment him about the way he
