The herald., 1916-12-14

When thousands of young men the
country over quit their jobs to aid the
cause of Uncle Sam, their sisters and
their sweethearts jumped into their
places to hold down their positions
until the boys returned. No one said
them nay, but whether or not the
move was wise one is a story vet
to be told.
There is sort of fascination in
making money, the result of which is
never afterward wholly overcome. II
Will be an eye opener to many a sweet
heart as to the real value of the sti-
pend her Jack receives to compensate
him for his hours Of toll and give her
an insight as to her future prospects
when they wed.
Other girls will make the discovery
that 1t is not necessary to wed that
their support may be transferred from
their fathers shoulders to hus-
bands, for they are proving capable
OF making their own way. Jack will
find very practical business young
will wish to make a bargain with him
that she may still hold that position
after marriage, he finding another as
best he can.
The girl who discovers her value as
moneymaker is not apt to make a
clinging-vine sort of heartmate. Her
independence will assert itself. She
will let Jack understand that she is
doing him the greatest of favors to
throw up good-paying position to en-
ter a little fiat, to bake, wash and
housekeep for him for her board and
clothes. He will be obliged to show
er all the love his heart is capable Of
expressing to keep her there con-
tented.
The girl entirely dependent upon her
husband is often made the toy Of his
caprices of i'll humor or i'll treatment
! Such a wife has a horror of being
thrown upon the world, realizing her
utter helplessness.
The wife who has once had the
taste of moneymaking will not stand
abuse, drunkenness or laZiness in a
spouse. Facing the world has no ter
rors for her. Rather than lower the
standard she has set for herself, and
for him as well, she will go back to
her position and the comfort Of earn
ing money to keep out Of debt. She
who has known the power Of exchang-
ing her time and ability for fair
wage, ever afterward rebels at the hui
initiation of having cash for her needs
grudgingly handed her in small pit
tances by a close-fisted, penurious hus-
band.
The girl who knows what 1t is to
work hard for her dollars Is the one
who Is frugal in their expenditure. 1t
is a great education-one of life's les
sons she is not likely to forget. She
is not likely to marry for the sake
Of q home. With her it is the giving
up Of great opportunities probably
for love, and for love alone, when she
weds. The knowledge that II need
be she can support herself is Of great
value to a woman.
