WE
the Women

Can I take a $1,000 depreciation
on my wife again this year," a
taxpayer innocently asked an Off
cial in Indiana. And the official
had a good laugh over the hus-
bands use of depreciation" instead
of exemption"
But actually, maybe the man
wasn't so ignorant.
A wife either becomes more valu-
able to her husband every year-or
she becomes less. She never stays
the same.
Some wives work at the job of
becoming more and more valuable
to their husbands. Such a wife
studies her husbands likes and
dislikes SO that the longer she
lives with him the better she knows
how to keep him happy, contented,
and sure that he married the only
woman in the world for him. ,
She becomes more efficient as
a housekeeper, and easier to live
with. And she studies her hus-
bands business and profession to
find some way of which she can be
of help to him in his work. In ad-
dition to that, she pursues some
worthwhile interests of her own,
so that her husband finds her a
stimulating companion.

BRAVES INFIELD SCRAP

WALLINGFORD, Conn.,, March
"a. (UP)-Competition for regular
jobs in the Boston Braves infield
was so keen Friday that Connie
Ryan, last years first string second
baseman, faced a fight to hold his
position today. Arriving in camp
after a brief holdout. he found
several promising rockies entronched
in his spot. A good fielder, he hit
only .212 in 1872 games and may be
benched unless he can improve his
hitting.
Imperial Valley press., 1944-03-24

Such a wife certainly increases
in value. But the dumb little girl
who had nothing but the prettiness
of youth to recommend her as a
wife, and who thinks she can coast
along on that prettiness all her life,
certainly depreciates in value every
year of her Wifehood.
For as her beauty fades, her
dumbness and inefficiency become
less tolerable. Certainly that is
depreciation.
So maybe the taxpayer wasn't
far wrong. Maybe he thought he
deserved some income tax reduc-
ton for his wife'S depreciation.
