lHoW Would You Get
Divorce From Soldisr7'

War Problem Clinic:
/ would like TO know how you
would go about getting a divorce
from a man in the service who eX-
poets TO go overseas any day
My case was filed July /, 1912.
i was supposed TO have a decree
not later than Sept. Is Of the same
year.
My attorney has been paid the
full amount OF his fee, aut every
time l call him he says my nus
band contested.
My husband told them in friend
of court office that he was willing
for me TO have a divorce, but
don't seem 10 get anywhere.

Dear Mrs. II. t.:

Second: Whether or not you
work, what would be your plans
in case of pregnancy Would
you be able 20 get along on
what you receive from his allot-
ment? DO you think this would
he happy arrangement for
you?
Third; You must face the fact
that living as married woman
for possibly two or three years
with your husband away may
not be as easy as II may seem.
Fourth: There's little question
hut that people who are away
from one another for a year or
longer do change and at your
age IL might be wise for you to
wait until his return.
However, since you have
known this man for two years
and feel that you have common
interests, the same religious
background, health, the same
educational level, and yon are
both weIl-mated, there would
seem to he no reason why you
should not marry IL your family
gave their consent. You cane Of
course. marry without their con-
sent, but 4 do not advise this.

Miss s. NJ. t.:
There are several questions
one has To keep In mind in solv-
ing the problem YOU present. In
the first place, marriage il not
an individual matter, but a
family affair, and because of
this latter fact IL is always wise,
IL possible, to have the good
will of ones people when one
married.
There are other points, how
ever, that should be considered.

Delayed FurIough
Puzzles Soldiers Wife

War Problem Clinic:
My husband enlisted in the
u. s. Army last July II.
l am employed in a defense
plant.
My husband has been promised
furlough twice and both times
they were Cancelled.
I'm sure my husband has been
a good soldier, as he already has
a corporal rating.
Very often our sons cry for
their daddy and ask me when he
is coming home.
Many young fellows from our
factory who have been in the army
for two or three months have been
home on leaves and already have
gone back.
l don't believe that's quite fair.
These fellows were indicted and
my husband entered the army Of
his own accord.
Why, then. have the draftees
been permitted 10 come home on
leave and not my husband.
Is there not some way he can
receive a furlough?
