have been placed in such a mortify- ing position. and wishing heartily that husbands and wives would keep their quarrels for home consumption and not inflict them on their friends.
 The same strictures apply to the woman who henpecks her husband That also should be one of the quiet home joys that should be strictly con fined to the domestic circle.
 I raise no voice of protest against the woman who has wit and strength and determination enough to oust her husband out of his position as head of the house and asSume it herself. It is a matter between the husband and wife, and if he hasn't enough spuhk to fight for his rights he deserves to lose them. But why cannot the bossy woman be content with exercising their tyranny quietly and unobtrusively Why do they insist upon rattling the chains by which they lead their husbands until they call public attention to them?
 Think of the women you know who always say MY house." My car.'s, My children Who always walk ahead of thefr husbands and point out seat. and say. John, sit there" Y and who always tell John where to get on and where to get off! And think how all >the rest of us are embarrassed for poor John

 In all good truth I know of no other situation so miserable and so embar- rassing as to be called upon to referee a fight between a married couple. Their quarrel is, to begin with, matter with which we have no concern one in which we do not desire to meddle one in which we ardently wish to take neither side. It makes us feel like towards to keep silent while man hurls deadly insults at his wife. and we writhe in vicarious shame while a woman vituperates her husband.
 We have the sense of having as- sisted 1n an indecent orgy when a hus-
 band and wife strip every ray of re-

ments for them, because they are all
 ways saying something that draws
 blood, or framing a retort that will
 cut to the quick, and the excitement
 of battle to the death is perpetual
 ly thrilling their nerves.
 Without doubt, it IS a merry and adventurous existence for the doughty domestic warriors who enjoy that kind of thing would not be cruel enough to deny them the cheery pastime of go- ing to the mat over every trivial differ ence of opinion. But I do contend that conjugal quarrels are an indoor sport that should be pursded only when the participants have sought the seclusion that the cabin grants, as they used to say in "Pinafore," and when all the shades have been pulled down and the keyholes stuffed with cotton.

 The members of the invitation com mittee, with Mrs. Frank Grider as chairman and Mrs. Joe Norman, CO., chairman, with the following commit tee: Mrs. J. s. Stubbins, Mrs. Herbert Tutwiler, Mrs. Chrales Marks, Mrs. Lester Brownlee, Mrs. Robley Munger Mrs. John Chisholm. Miss Sarah Phelm, Mrs. Algeron Smith, and Mrs. R. V. Gregory as chairman of the tick cts and~Mrs Arthur Crowder, chair man of the list, have sent hundreds of letters containing two tickets to the ball Easter Monday evening, April 21, at the Country club.
 The ball is given under the auspices of the lLinly Heflin unit, charitable organization, and it is hoped that every one will purchase the tickets. Owing to the establishment of the community chest this year the unit has not been permitted to ask for donations of money. In the past these donations have formed an important part in the budget of the unit.
 The success of the ball is dependent upon the generous response in buying the tickets, but as this is the outstand- ing social event of the season it's sue cess is assured.

in public. Nor are we consoled by the knowledge that the people who make public exhibitions of their tenn pers must enjoy doing so or else they would not do it.
 Yet we all number our friends hus- bands and wives, otherwise estimable and charming individuals, who al- ways stage their fights in the most conspicuous place they can find, and who seem to prefer an audience to privacy.
 When you meet them for an evening s diversion they are having preliminary set-to. Perhaps the husband has come home late from the office, or has for gotten to mail letter, or possibly the wife has kept her husband waiting while she did her hair over the second time. During the selection of the din ner they get warmed up to the work and put in some punches with real steam behind them. They clinch, and bite, and gouge over the selection of a play. and they reach for each others vital spots and get in dirty iabs at the supper dance that follows the play.
 Doubtless the fighters are enjoying themselves, but pleasant time is not being had by all. The abashed on- lockers know not what to do. They do not know whether to rush in and make it free-for-all fight or to try to mediate between the warning cou- pie, or whether to pretend to have been suddenly strickn deaf, dumb and blind.
