By IoHN KENNEREcK

Do husbands live up to a perfec-
ton Of love for their wives?
Does the conjugal love of hus-
band for wife lasta
Is the modern husband a Lochin-
var. so faithful in love, so dauntless
IN trouble?
Here is story of two types of
husbands, one staunchly standing
by his wife in her pain and alleged
Wrong-doings, the other ably ehoos-
big his distance from his family
while the frail wife alone deliber-
ates increasingly upon a plea for her
defense Of a criminal charge against
her.
Mrs. Len w. Van Ausdell shot
Mrs. c. B. ljams, wife of a wealthy
eastern clearinghouse executive,
through the back, VIGOROUSLY cry
ing: you've stolen my husband.
You've wrecked my home. Now |
hope you die"
Husband Deserts Her.
The husband replies to his plead
Ing wife: Stick by you after what
you've done? Never"
Mrs. c. B. ljams lies in the hos
pital at the point of death. Her
husband, the other type of man, is
constantly at her bedside in a spirit
of prayer for her recovery. He has
tened from Detroit when he heard
his wife had been shot.
Conjugal love in both cases is at
stake. Ever watchful. ever loving
ever cheerful, the husband of the
victim of an intended fatal shot is
ct the bedside of his wife.
Unrepentant, without care for his
family and faithless to his marriage
vows, the husband of the frail pris-
oner takes stand against his wife.
Lacking the indomitable courage
that might be afforded her by the
husband in her plight, Mrs. Van
Ausdell must face the court alone
to feel the humanity of justice.
Husbands to clash9
The verbal clash between the two
husbands must come. The peace
full spirit of one is exempIified in
the words: 'Why should | talk to
Van Ausdell about the case? have
nothing to say to him. My whole
anxiety is for my wife" The de-
fiant spirit of the other is exempli-
fled in words to his wife: "I'll never
stick by you"
Defying the pleadings of his two
daughters, Monrieve and Gaynelle,
that he return to his family, Van
Ausdell makes a flat refusal. For
the rest of their lives, the mother
and two daughters must feel the
pangs of the deeds that caused a
broken home. They pleaded with
the father to return to the home, and
finally in the mothers present mis-
fortune and anxiety, to make a stand
for her defense. Finding their plead
ings in vain, Monrieve Van Ausdeli,
the elder of the two daughters,
wrote the following:
in case of this kind, I hardly
ind how father can completely turn
down Gaynelle and me, after we
have tried so hard to do what is
right to him always, never in any
way showing him any disrespect I'M
I'll this happened. His assertion that
mother was insanely jealous is not
true. In this statement he must

side in this affair now, because he
never helped us in any way before.
(Signed)
MONRIEVE VAN AUSDELL.
So with the mother, Mrs. Van
Ausdell, wan and marked with
worry, receiving the tender affec-
ton and encouragement of her two
daughters, the husband retains his
stand against her, while the wound
ed Mrs. Ijams lies in the hospital in
full faith and confidence in the love
OF her husband, constantly at her
bedside.
The imperfection and perfection of
conjugal love are personi6ed in the
two types.

HER IDEAL

Emma was going to study music
This definite amDlIlon on Emma's part
spread contagion of resolution
among the others. Louise wanted to
be an actress. Ethel Putnam, who
lived with two gaunt maiden aunts and
giant maltese cat across the street
from Armies 1athouse, had social as
pirations. She was going to marry a
millionaire and have horses and car
riages and servants and clothes and
grand receptions and a box at the
opera.
Annie still held to Aunt Moggie as
her ideal Of independence and pros
perity. But when she told the girls
she was going to be stenographer
and typewriter they curled scornful
lips. That was no way to get rich and
rise in the social world Even Rose
Rothberg, Armies old friend Of the
east side tenement, who had moved
slightly westward like the Hargans
and was still neighbor, was unfavor-
ably disposed toward the typewriting
idea.
I'm going to keep a store" said
Rose. "A delicatessen ard candy
store" she added with twofold mag
nificence. MY father, he says, il you
want to make good living you should
trade in something everybody has
gotta have. People have gotta eat,'
she went on with creditable logic.
Leave US keep store together, Annie
you and me, yes? It's better"
The ideas were all good, Annie ad-
mitted. But her Aunt Moggie was a
living, breathing example of Success,
according to Annie's standards. She
loved her Aunt Moggie so that what
ever she did was touched with ideal
ism. If Aunt Moggie had CHANGED to
be milliner instead of a secretary
in big publishing house. millinery
would have been Annie's goal Be-
sides, Annie Rugged to herself the
knowledge that she was further along
in her ambitions than the other girls
She already knew part of her trade
to-be. She had never ceased to be in
terested in the type-writing machine
on her aunt's businesslike desk. Her
small fingers could now actually find
their swift way over the magic key
board. And it had all come in the
course of play, when she was so little
that she had to sit on the dictionary
and pillow to reach up
When Annie was eight her compo-
sitions on Aunt Moggie's typewriter
usually took the form of a letter to
mother. Nowadays it was different.
Her thirteen-year-old ideals were, like
her fingers, bigger, more ambitious.
She now preferred to write maxims
from her copybook and verses from
songs she sang in school. She admired
all the handsome Spencerian legends
such as Honesty is the best policy
and "Procrastination is the thief of

| time" But there were others she
liked better.
Perseverance conquers ajI things"
was one. Annie traced this with infin-
tie pains, rounding every letter per
fectly, shading the down strokes, max
ing the "a" and the "g" neatly plump
and symmetrical, and finishing with
decisive period.
At the top of page Z stood forth in
perfect copperplate the words, There
is nothing either good or bad, but
thinking makes 1t so-Shakespea-e."
Here indeed was an inspiration. 1t
bore out her daddy's very words. you
can do anything, Nancie. if you want
it enough. and keep at it, and don't
lose hope"
There was another one, too: "As
a man thinketh, so is he" The same
promise again-you can do anything
have anything, by hanging onto the
idea and working toward it! Her
father, her aunt, her copybook and this
man, Shakespeare, all agreed 1t must
be true, then. 1t was very comfort
ing to Annie.
