and the Hnother.in-iaw joke always
Got g. hand from the unthinking. At
any rate the idea that this sort of
thing should be stopped got a grip
on me. and. i have never been able to
shake off the idea that the maligned
mother-in-law needed the loving care
and confederation of her daughter-in-
law and her son-in-lAw. OF course,
sdo not cfaim that all mothers-inlaw
are as good and as sweet and as kind
as mine is, but 1t seems to me that
in the case of the nleddlesome, fault
finding mother-in-iaw an organiza-
tion Ike ours can do much toward
mutual tolerance by taking both sides
in hand, reasoning with them and
setting a good example.
+ tAs soen as we get well started we
hope to be able to induce the legis-
latures of the different states to en-
courage our idea by passing, a law
recognizing mothers-in -in-law day.
"Reasen and tolerance on the part
of the mother-in-law and. the SON in
law and daughteP-in- law will go. far
20 a better understanding between
those involved For myself, l don't
see how q man cannot love and re-
speet his mother in -law-the mother
of his wife. Nor. on the other hand,
can uhueF6tdHu no" uduBnleT-iH-
law can despise the mother of her
husband Again, "a : meth er-in law
ought to have as much respect for
her SON. -in-law as she has for one of
her own hoys. ~.
II realize. Of course, that hsthe case
of unhappy marriages our ideas can
not be attained, but again / make the
point that mutual forebearance and
teleratien will play an important part
In making the mother-in-law. more
respected and less subjected to coarse
stage jokes"
!! The Organization is only little
more than a month old. but is grow
ing by leaps and bounds, Mrs. Girls
void said. She is planning to visit
other large cities in the east and west
| to start the idea going.
Mayor CuFley of Boston has given
the new organization his Endorsement,
and, speaks in the highest terms of its
founder.
