$120 Increase for Clerks
Not Enough
By EARL WIN.

Two years ago. when Congress acknowledged there had
Deen pg increase in the cost of living the Government
clerks OF VoTELESS Washington were granted bonus
averaging about ten dollars a month
year later they were granted a straight bonus Of
$120 year.
And now the Appropriations Committee of the House
proposes to offer these VOTELESS clerks the same
bonus; and while they striving to make ends meet on
tins inadequate increase commission will set about TO
determine just what salary Government clerk should
receive.
The idea OF reesabshing Government clerks salaries
mt and proper and about twenty-five years overdue But
the meantime give these clerks the $3.50 year bonus ey
ask for instead of this meager $120
Inc increased cost of living never adequately met
by the bonus allowed by Congress At this moment with
the cost almost double what two years ago. it is
lnhuman to ask Government clerk to live and raise
family on the meager pttance doed out by Congress-
For PHYS sake, Congressman act toward these VOTE

TODAY'S TOPIC
"GIVING- UP" LIFE FOR LOVE,

make life richer and wider and
more significant.
Try to Enlarge Your Life.
You will need all tie interests
you can lay hold of. Don't imag-
inc that marriage can be made
successful by continual love-mak-
ing alone. Don't subject your
husband to the strain of making
him think for two. Be an inde-
pendent personality.
If your object in marriage is
to keep your husbands love,
you'll have to find some other
way of doing this than by merely
being pretty and "cute." If you
know anything about music or
books or business or outdoors
hold fast to it. You can make it
your contribution to married life.
You can make your married COM
panionship a matter of healthy
give-and-take. It's the marriages

with the idea of providing them
selves with an expert domestic
servant. And 1 hope there aren't
many women who are willing to
be married for that purpose alone.
Sensible men and women marry
because they love each other, be-
cause they expect to help each
other, and because they hope to be
the parents of beautiful, healthy
children.
And isn't it perfectly plain that
woman can't possibly become a
capable wife and mother Just by
making herself uninterestinp?
In fact, just the contrary is true.
II you who read this are at that
delicate and perilous moment of
beginning YOUR married life, that
moment when it is so easy to make
grave mistakes, and so hard to
repair them-let me urge you not
to give up" anything that will

llIS giving up pretty nearly
everything you can think
of, for the sake of the man
you marry, a proof of your love
for him." a young Washington
bride asked me the other day.
Multitudes of women have sup
posed this to be the case, and have
acted on it. Girls who marry
young are particularly likely to
have this idea, to believe they're
going to be better wives by RIDING
themselves of every interest in the
world but one.
| believe any truly wise woman
would tell you that this is a Sc
riously mistaken view.
Girls who have a pretty talent
for music radiantly announce to
you, as soon as they become
brides, that they are giving up"
the piano, or singing, in order to
devote themselves utterly to their
husbands and their homes.
Studious girls boast that they
are going to give up reading and
educating themselves, athletic girls
recklessly fling away their tennis
rackets and skates. Girls success
fully started in a trade or busi-
ness or profession throw it all
overheard in a twinkling.
Indeed there are girls who go a
great deal farther than this. Not
content with the inevitable sepa-
ration from the family group they
have grown up in, these foolish
young creatures plan practically
a lifelong isolation with the man
they are to marry. Friends are
cast into the scrap heap along with
interests and accomplishments.
I'm giving up my really close,
intimate friends" a young bride
declared to me the other day. II
thing after a girl is married she
doesn't need any friends but her
husband"
Making Yourself Unintercsting.
Now. what does this really mean?
Does it mean that a girl really
expects to give twelve or fourteen
hours a day to cooking and sock
darning, that this wonderful new
life of love and promise is to be
merely an uninterrupted round of
drudgery?
She would deny anything of the
sort.
Or does she have an underlined
belief that she is making herself
more attractive, more desirable,
by obliterating her own mind and
personality as far as possible and
becoming a sort of blotting-paper
to the expression of her husbands
ideas and interests?
Or does she think it's part of
the pomp and state of being mar
ried to parade the fact that a
woman who is equipped with a hus-
band has only domestic accom-
plishments and only "wifely" no
tions?
Not many men nowadays marry

conducted on that principle that
are the successful ones.
And as for giving up your
friends merely in order to con-
centrate on your husband-I as
sure you that you should have
Just the opposite aim. 1t has
sometimes pitifully, sometimes
tragically, happened that hus-
bands who were the objects of
too steady concentration became
Just a little bored. And this is a
thing to avoid, if possible.
instead of stripping your life
OF friends, you should try to
make your new home a center of
friendship. Make it a gathering
place that will have a real and
precious meaning, not only to you
two who love each other, but to
your whole circle. And let the
circle grow all the time.
Elghteen-year-old brides don't
OFTEN face the fact of marriage
as a whole. They are even some
tunes so childlike and short
sighted that they fail to take
motherhood into account.
Equipment For Motherhood.
Ihey are so occupied with being
made love to that they don't think
very much about that glorious
privilege ahead of them. Their
impractical plan, in fact, is to shut
themselves up in a. very new little
home and be made love to for a
lifetime.
But even if this plan would
work, which it doesn't, what a
poor preparation for motherhood
it implies!
A mother who has given nm
friends, interests, talents, occupa-
tons, ideas, in the mistaken be-
lief that this 10 a wife's duty nat
urally will have nothing left to
give those eager questioning
babies of hers who are shortly
coming to cluster about her and
ask for those very things that she
has given up!"
Do you suppose that your re-
sponsibility as a mother is ended
when you've seen that the milk
bottles are scientifically clean and
the baby has fresh air and warm
clothing?
It's only just begun.
You can't be any sort of a
mother unless your children be-
lieve in you. Unless they find
you real person. who under
stands things and who does things.
When the time has come for YOU
to be nurse and teacher and friend
to your children, you'll be thank
full for all the interests you've
ever cultivated and you'll lament
all those that in your youthful
folly, you threw away.
Neither to your husband nor to
your children-that-are-to-be, are
you doing any service by deliber-
ately narrowing your life.
Hold fast, instead, to as much
of life as is within YOUR grasp.
