D This Wife Also Wears Her Dresses Long to Please Him,
Wife Declares in Letter, Asking Martha
Lee What to Do.
Just how far do marital rights extend?
How "bossy'' is it right for husband-or wife to be?

Does the marriage ceremony give
any one the authority to dictate the
entirely personal matters, such as
the way one wears his hair, the color
and style of clothes that the married
partner would don?
In this age of determined reach
for freedom on. the part of women,
it's often question who is 'boss"
anyway. Perhaps the safe conclu
sion is that neither partner should
endeavor to be the dictator, but make
their marriage give and take"
proposition.
Concretely that would mean that
if the husband "gives in" about such
matters as his wife bobbing her hair
for instance, she would "give in" for
him to smoke pipe or do the thou
sand and one things the average wife
fights in her husband.
If the ''give and take" line of activ-
ity is good strengthened of friendship
why shouldn't it be for the partner
ship called marriage?

Their Religions Differ

Dear Martha Lee: 1 have been going
with a fellow for many months. We are to
be married soon, but this, is the trouble:
He is Of an opposite religious faith to
mine. He doesn't seem to want to talk
about it, and says that when we are mar
ried we can be married by whomeyer l
choose.
can I be happy with him under the cir:
cllmstances? What about our children, if
we should have any? This is "stumper"
question to me. What do you say?
1 have left nothing by which your
letter could be recognized as you see.
1t takes all kind of people to make
a world, and some folks get terribly
agitated over such question as YOU
PROFOUND, but to save my life I can
never see why a difference in rei-
gious beliefs should come between
folks who love each other.
What is religion? If it's force to
promote peace and love, how can
you expect it to cause trouble?
This is refreshing. You who are
pessimistic on the subject Of mar
riage, read:

LEGISLATIVE PROBLEMS

Legislation to carry out the objects
of the Forestry Amendment approved
by the voters in the last election,
is the most important, and at the
same time the biggest job confront
ing the legislature. Looking into the
future it can be seen that if proper
legislation on this subject is enacted
it will be worth more to future gen.
erations in every two-year period
than the entire cost of the coming
legislative session.
Next there is the banking situation,
which really ought to have something
done to it in a remedial way. But
just what can be done is almost as
great mystery as "who hit Billy
Patterson" But the matter is OF
sufficient Importance to demand the
best legislative thought available, and
it is we'll that the legislature can la
Dor, as it will, long and earnestly on
the subject.
Then there is the crime situation
and the excellent recommendation OF
the Crime Commission recently filed
with Governor Christensen. Legis-
lation on this subject comes as near
to being "crying need" as anything
that will confront the legislature,
and whatever the result, it will I'M
doubtedly be one of the outstanding
