come from just one man. You
would feel yourself heavily bur-
dened if you had wife, boy and
girl, an old mother, an occasional
maid, a car, a home, insurance
and taxes to maintain; and believe
me, in the face of the clouds, dark
ening over the world today, your
man does. One of you, or better,
two of you, ought to be helping out,
in however modest fashion.
Share the Burden.
One woman in my neighborhood
went to contractor and had him
turn her big top-story into an inde-
pendent flat, with rooted outer
stairway. Bath, kitchen fittings and
stairway were the main expense;
stove and plumbing cost her $912.
But the husband, who had been
getting So a day was now getting
SIG, and sometimes more, and she
could pay this off, and did pay this
off, at the rate of something more
than $100 a month.
Then she furnished it, buying new
curtains, but otherwise merely ex-
tracing from the IL rooms down.
stairs such tables, chairs and beds
as she could spare. This apartment
rents for SIS a month and she says
she could rent three of them.
Now she has taken three back
rooms on the second fioor-yes, the
boys rooms, both her boys are in
the service. But she won't let her
self worry or grieve; she says she
never thought life was easy, and
that she thanks God for all the
years she had her sons. She is turn
ing these three rooms into sitting
room, bedroom and kitchen, and
they are so pleasant, clean and
roomy that even while the paperers
are in there the suite is rented for
two-year term.
This woman, strong, confident,
capable, is ready for anything. Are
you? Does your husband come
home to an atmosphere of peace,
courage, helpful planning? Is his
mind at ease about what would hap
pen if he became incapacitated?
Old Way Gone Forever.
That old way is gone forever. But
I believe in my heart that new light
is shining behind the blaclmess Of
these clouds, and that in Gods good
time it will break through. I think
we know more of the suffering of
the world than we once did, and that
we never again willingly tolerate
the crowding, the cold, the hunger
and poverty that the world has so
long taken for granted.
We may live more simply. but it
viii be more happily, too, il we can
feel that the old day of contrasted
luxuries and miseries is over, and
men have learned that the real
riches of life lies IN sharing.

KEEP YOUR CHIN UP!

That's tUhGt the tUOmen of this

They are going to haze to smile,

going to haue to make ''home,"

and sacrifice, peaceful and

By KATHLEEN NORRIS

THE strangest years of her
history and the greatest
= crisis she ever has faced
are Immediately ahead for
America. She has always been
a friendly country, willing to
let other countries solve their
problems and worship their
gods in their own way, not
afraid of her weaker neighbors
any more than they were afraid
of her.
But all this has been changed,
and we have enemies" now,
we are to be the worlds arsenal
and to attempt to police the
world. And you, the quiet mis-
tress of a quiet household, have
your share in the world of catastro-
phe, and must do your bit to pull
us all out of a chaos into which the
blindness and stupidity of the ma
tions overseas have drawn us.
| They talked world brotherhood,
world peace, world distribution of
opportunities and necessities 20
years ago. But nobody meant those
promises or took the slightest inter-
est in their fulfillment; blockades
went on; mandatory powers were
not released; children starved and
their mothers and fathers went mad
for revenge.
These conditions will be repeated
in a few years when the war is
over, for the men who are respon-
sible for it are not dealing honestly
with their peoples now, and are not
apt to change afterward. No, they
will retire, wealthy and unpunished,
as they did 20 years ago, leaving
sorrow and ruin and bitter change
for all the rest of us to face.
Make Family Unafraid.
Your share is to make the little
unit that is your family, and if pos
sible your group, self-sufficient and
unafraid. Begin this very day to
change your house into a place to
which a man and children love to
return at night. No worry, no fears
and complaining, no violent discus
sion of public affairs at your table
or around your fireplace. Just
the courage of woman whose fore
bears have faced loss and change,
and who will bear her own share
of the burden when and if it comes.
Make "I viii be afraid of nothing"
your first rule. Your faith viii af-
feet every member of your family.
Yes, even if death is going to be
your share, and the boy doesn't
come home from the wars, face it.
Three million American mothers
will be beside you. Life won't ever
60 back for any of us to what it
was. But face it, and in love for
those who are left, and who will
grieve less, will suffer less, if you
always show a smiling face, learn
to bear the unbearable.
For a second rule: Get out of
debt. Whatever your income is,
live on exactly two-thirds Of it.
Save; buy little farm, and when
you own it, buy another, to rent.
Get your feet solidly on the ground
for what is coming; for each one Of
us who can take care of neighbor
will have to do it then. Cut down
everywhere you can.
Maybe your income is inflated
now, is much larger than it was be-
fore defense activities began. If that
is so, try to live as simply as before,
and invest in national bonds, or in
those few acres of real estate that
some day may mean a cellar full
of your own apples and squashes
and potatoes. closet shelves filed
with preserved berries and fruits,
chickens.
And now for a third rule: See
that the family income does not
