Dorothy Dix Says go
Depriving Husband of His Freedom
Greatest Mistake Wife Makes

Dear Dorothy Dix: My wife is
known as a good" woman. She
does church work conspicuously and
to the world she appears to have a
lovely disposition. But at home the
mask is removed and she makes
my life a hell on earth. I suppose
she loves me, but with her it is rule
or ruin, and she dominates me at
every turn. I cannot escape her
physical presence or her watchful
eye for a moment. She appears at
my office or on the golf course to
keep tab on me and makes a tele-
phone check-up at any and all
hours of the day. She simply will
not leave town without me, even for
one night. And if I attempt to get
away on brief business trip with
out her there is such sickening
scene that I always end by giving
In and taking her along. Once when
I went on a fishing trip she ap-
peared unexpectedly at our camp,
SO I have given up fishing. She
refuses even to go to see her friends
or relatives. I am satiated with
her to the point of desperation and
do not know what to do, as I do
not believe in divorce, but I feel
will go crazy if I cannot get some
rest from her. Why cannot women
understand that man must have
some personal freedom?

Not for Job
Hunters
Develop Initiative
In This World of
Competition
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

You've been so busy preparing for
exams and then graduation, that
you have had few hours to think
about the future. Now that school
is behind you and career is ahead
OF you it's time to consider what you
have to offer the business world.
Diplomas are very nice things to
have. No doubt you earned the one
you received by examining that
young head of yours full of facts.
That's all the school required. But
the world requires you to use those
facts. They are only the foundation
Of the perspective you must build.
In other words your diploma is a
written acknowledgement that you
are prepared to start thinking. Up
until now you have followed a leader.
Now you are on your own.
When you step out into the adult
world you are expected to be an
adult. To look like one, to act like
one, to think like one. You cannot
expect to continue being the reck-
less, Indifferent, sheltered schoolgirl.
You must provide yourself with a
work-a-day outfit and groom your
self into smart young lady. That
Is, if you plan to get job.
OF course, if you plan to marry at
once and your prince charming has
already popped the question you
might continue being a bit of a
school girl until after the wedding.
But job seekers (and the majority
OF graduates are job seekers should
spend the free time now on their
hands to improve themselves.
They should first rest. Rest, rest,
rest, until the roses are back in their
cheeks and fresh ambition forces
them onward. During that week or
month of holiday they should exer-
else out of doors, eat meals at regu-
lar hours, revitalize neglected skin
and hair and streamline their figures.
The old schoolgirl careleSsless
must be dropped. Detailed groom
ing must be learned and practiced.
AS soon as your personal appear
ance Is satisfactory you must begin
developing initiative. That takes
self-confldence. No longer can you
rely upon mother, or teacher, or
roommate. You are out on your
own. Use every opportunity to meet
people, to get an interview for a
likely job, to acquire more poise and
attractiveness. Keep current by
reading newspapers and periodicals.
The dumb belle never reaches her
goal and she never catches the man
she wants.

S. Look your best and dress suit
ably for the occasion. If in doubt
about where you're going it's better
to be too plain than too fancy.
6. Let him help you on with your
coat, open doors for you and perform
other little favors. Don't be too in
dependent. Show him that you con-
slider yourself in his care and keep
ing for the evening. He'll love it.
7. If he has planned the enter
tainment, be agreeable. If he asks
you for suggestions make them
with a decent regard for his finan-
cial condition and his tastes.
8. If you go by automobile let him
do the driving, without advice or
suggestions from you. The only
exception is when his driving is
downright dangerous.
9. Let him know in advance what
time you must be home-and be
there. He doesn't want to get in
wrong with your family for keeping
you out long past curfew.
10. Whenever you board a bus or
street car, let him pay the fares
while you move on to a seat. Don t
stand beside him, blocking the aisle
for other passengers.
IL. Don't hog the conversation.
Particularly, don't babble about what
'the girls" said and did, or rave
about your other dates. Try to lead
him to talk, and be interested in
what he has to say.
II. Avoid hanging on his arm OF
doing anything else that might en-
barrass him. Above all, don't be
bossy or poSseSsive.

Answer-I don't know, but the
belief that wife shows her devo-
ton to her husband by never letting
him get the length of her apron
string from her is an obsession with
many women.
You will often hear one boast that
in the 40 years she and her husband
have been married that they have
never been parted for sirgle day.
Or another one will self rig hteously
say that, although she hates travel
and strange hotels, she always goes
with her husband on all his business
trips.
While as for the very suggestion
OF husband and wives taking their
vacation apart, loads of women
simply throw fits of horror.
Every woman with grain of sense
in her head knows that watching
a husband does no good. Some
where surveillance always breaks
down, and if he wants to go ON the
loose he will do it.
Nor can 1t be that wives are so
enamored of their husbands society
that they can't survive without it
for a few days. For in most homes
the Mr.. and Mrs. sit up in silence
so thick you could cut it with a
knife, or else he dozes behind his
paper while she knits her 50th
sweater, or else they quarrel over
the bills, or the children, or their
respective inlaws, just to put little
kick into the conversation.
For as human nature is consti-
tute6 we have to have change in
our companionship just as we do in
our food, and we can no more relish
the continuous society of any one
person, day after day, month after
month, year after year than we
could eat 80 quails in 80 days.
In reality, at the bottom of nearly
all domestic trouble and divorce is
boredom. Husbands and wives, no
matter how much they love each
other to start with, no matter what
fine people they are, get fed up with
each other If they are never parted.
They talk out. Each knows what
the other is going to say before he
or she says it. They have heard
all of each others stories and jokes
until they feel they will scream If
they have to listen to them once
more.
But let these same people be
parted even for a week and they
come together as lovers. They are
full of the new things they have
seen and done and they have some
thing interesting to talk about.
Absence has not only made their
hearts grow fonder, but it has given
them a new viewpoint on each other

13. If you meet other girls or boys,
greet them cordially, but don't
neglect your date for them. Remem-
Der that he is head man" for the
evening.
IA. Mind your manners, but don t
parade them. Try to be naturally at
ease, gay and cooperative, eager to
have a good time, but never loud
or conspicuous.
10. II he takes you somewhere to
eat, don't order the most costly items
on the menu. You don't want him
to end up washing dishes in the
kitchen to pay off the check.
16. Don't suggest having a double
date, or joining another couple or
party, unless you know him we'll.
Why give him the idea that. his
company alone bores you?
IT. If it's still early when you get
home, and the family's up, ask him
to come in If you wish. But if he
isn't coming in, say goodnight
promptly at the door-not at the
end of the walk or beside the car.
18. Tell him what grand time
you had, and be ready with a sug-
gestion for another date if he asks
you. But don't pass out any broad
hints or seem too eager.
10. Be chary with your kisses,
especially on first dates. Don't let
him get the idea you're easy.
20. Don't break date except in q
real emergency.
