knowledge of Principles
OF Finance Invaluable
Aid to Family
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Famous Authority Problems of Lore and Marriage
Why will husbands crimp and overwork to leave their
families enough live after they have died. and yet decline
to talk business with their wives?
How they imagine these ignorant of the meaning
of the simplest business terms will be able to stand against
the mob of hyse crooks and charatans who bese
with little property or life insurance?
The Washington times., 1935-12-30

Hardly a day passes without an
agonizing letter coming to this
column for woman who has
been exploited by some dishonest
person, lying in wait to get the
little money or life insurance her
husband has made tremendous
sacrifices to leave her.
Is it that men are so utterly
worn out by the task of earning
and putting by a few dollars for
the rainy day that they would
rather experience almost any kind
Of torture than discuss finances
with their wives when they come
home of evenings?
Typical Experience
The following letter is typical:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
"When l was married 1 had the
comfortable feeling I would be pro-
vided for. My husband was
thrifty and generous, and meant
to do the right thing by the chill
dren and me. He died in the be-
ginning of '29, and my little capi-
tai consisted of a business, the
home we lived in, and some first
mortgages, which seemed enough
to raise and educate the children
and keep us in comfort.
Il sold the business because he
would never tell me anything
about it. 1t consisted of hard.
ware. paints. farm implements,
and household utensils. Later the
home went with it, because we
lived above the store.
Those were the booming days
of the stock market, and a man
cousin of mine told me that /
could increase my capital very
much by investing in stocks. 1
did this, and for a few months
everything went Splendidly. Then
"ame the day when 1 was wiped
out with millions Of others.
THE only thing 1 could do was
,eep house and cook. l do this
or very little money, for the privi-
cge of keeping my youngest child
With me. The older boy and girl
re both in institutions.
II often wonder why my hus-
and did not tell me more about
BUSINESS. could have run the
store, I'm sure. And why didn't
lie warn me against reckleSSly
peculating with the little had?
WIDOW"
The unwillingneSs of men to
discuss business with their wives
Gems to be hangover from the
clinging-vine legend, the woman
whose crowning glory seemed to
)e an utter lack of intelligence IN
verything outside of the nursery
kitchen.
Safeguard Estate
Every woman, whether she is
married or single, should have
some business knowledge. She
should begin by learning how to
budget her family expenses and
keep a check book straight, and
she should be told about mort
cages, meeting notes, upkeep OF
property and interest.
And if a husband is bored in
telling his wife these things, the
woman should herself make ar
rangements to go to some of the
classes where these things are
taught. Almost every Y. w. C. A.
Or similar organization in the
country has business courses.
How much better for women to
know something of the fundamen-
tails of finance than to listen to
the pretty talk of every chance
crook and scoundrel whose main
object in life is the Fleeing of
widows and orphans.
