on for a long time. I'm not sure
that / want your advice" this let
ter ends, "but l want sympathy,
lots of it."
You have it, Paul. But don't for
get that much of the responsibility
for this situation rests with you and
with your wife. These girls were
not brought up to a realization of
the seriousness of marriage, and
the danger of the delusion that di-
vorce is an escape from its incon-
veniences. They felt, as young
wives, that marriage was like a
school, or a house, or a hat. If you
don't like it, change it. Don't put
up with the inevitable disappoint-
ments and establishments that
are part of even the happiest mar
riage. Just get out, the way you'd
get out of job that suppressed and
displeased you.
Can't Get Out Painlessly.
Marriage isn't like that. Its roots
60 deep - deep into a woman's
life. She cannot tear them up and
throw them aside without injuring
many lives, especially her own.
Years ago knew a girl named
Elsie. She married at 10 with the
statement that she didn't care for
Herb, but she wanted to be mar
ried at 10. At q she had been seven
years divorced, had grown older,
wiser, better. She fell in love, while
on an ocean voyage, with the son
of distinguished, conventional,
wealthy Baltimore family. They
were married and went to his home
where she was cordially well
coined. No one knew of her divorce
until one night, at dinner party,
her first husband appeared, drunk
and truculent. The episode was
passed over somehow, but her baby,
born too soon as result of agita-
ton, died. There never has been
another child.
Don't blame the girls, Paul.
Blame the parents who didn't train
them to be strong women and good
wives.

r TERE is a letter from the
- father of three girls. 1t
L l. would make me laugh,
with its peppery dissatisfaction,
if it did not come nearer to max
ing me cry.
''What the heck is the matter
with girls nowadays?" asks
Paul McAllister. "My wife and
I had three-we wanted a boy,
of course, but we got three pref
ty, active girls, who grew up to
keep the place in an uproar with
their dates and their clothes
and their boy friends. There
wasn't day for five or six years
that someone didn't want new
dress, or want to give a party,
or was crying over some invita-
ton that didn't come through or
some boy who didn't like her.
That was bad enough. Then all
three married; the little one first
and the twins at double wedding
a year later. That set me back
about five grand, but no matter
the girls were settled.
Settled! My gosh, they don't
know the meaning of the word
Fran, one of the twins, was mar
ried two years when she came
home with a baby boy, couldn't
stand Phil minute longer. Eight
months later Barbara landed back
on us; she has no child. We thought
she would marry again, but that
was five years ago. and she hasn't

two little girls, Eleanor is home.
Well, there's some excuse there.
Her husband is lazy, doesn't make
any money, says he is tubercular
and wants to live out on the desert.
Discordant Household.
Fran gets a hundred a month
alimony and gives her mother 80
Barbara gets 300 and says she'll 60
on this way forever, partly to spite
Ross. Here we all are, mother,
father, three daughters, three small
children, and good deal of refined
arguing and criticizing goes on -
we're too big family, that's the
truth. The girls cry over their mari
tai troubles, blame each other,
make up - surely this isn't the way
people ought to live, one old man
and a lot of detached women who
don't have homes or husbands!
Eleanor has no money to spend,
and talks of job. Barbara is pref
ty well pleased with her settle
ment and her freedom from respon-
sibility, and the contrast makes it
hard for the other girls. It's the
darndeSt situation I ever saw. They
help, of course, and we all love the
kids, but it means that my wife,
getting on in years now, is running
family clearinghouse.
"Aren't marriages supposed to
stick any longer? Barbara hasn't
got thing against Ross; Eleanor
might have gone out with her sick
husband to Arizona and stayed with
him to the end; Fran says now
that Phil-who has married again
Is one of the finest men she ever
knew. I've known folks who weren't
married who stuck to each other a
lot better than this.
"Rents and housing shortages in
our town make it impossible for
any of them to find inexpensive
apartments anywhere. Our house is
roomy and comfortable, and Bar
bara talks of building on big room
for herself when it is possible. But
a house with three young wives in
1t and no young husbands seems to
me pretty queer. The girls ages are
