en- ready to sacrifice their own lives
to him.
Why not accept the situation? 1t
hurts you deeply in your pride, in
your heart, of course. Your nearest
and dearest has failed you. You are
being humiliated and affronted by
an entirely inferior woman and it is
nature to feel that you just won't
you simply won't!-put up with it.
Suffering Is Universal.
But women everywhere in all the
great, wide, troubled, mistaken
world are putting up with the unen-
durable, Thelma. Millions of moth
ers and fathers are suffering bitter,
incurable agony when they pass the
closed door of what used to be the
boys room, or when a casual glance
at a photograph shows him as he
used to be, strong and confident and
loving-never to be theirs again.
Millions of magnificent boys are
sitting quiet and patient today, dis
figured, manned, blind, lame,
wrecked in mind and body. They
have to bear it. Nobody wants to
hear of their troubles now. The
girls with whom they danced have
danced away into happier scenes.
The ambitions they cherished-to be
architects, flyers, athletes, surgeons
all these are gone. They bear it.
They even learn to interest others,
to serve those about them, to de-
velop what is left of life for them.
You have had more than your
share of shelter, love, protection,
Thelma. Among women you are a
fortunate woman. You kept your
three children; some of us are not
so fortunate You have a home,
health, friends, freedom. Use them
all. Develop in yourself lovely and
controlled personality. And inevita-
bly,, within few years, Bert will be
back to say he is sorry, to ask for
giveness, to take his old place in
everything but your own heart. And
marriage, Thelma, is worth saving
even at such cost as this.

MI years of faithful wife
1 v i hood" writes a De-
troit woman, "is that my hus-
band is disgustingly, fatuously
in love with one of the girls in
the office-one of the women,
rather, for Sheila has been di-
vorced and has a little girl of 3.
My own family, boy of 18,
girls of 16 and IA, is at an age
when a fathers influence is all
important. And this is the time
when Bert chooses to become in
fatuated with a grass widow
of 26.
"She is pretty, of course, but in a
hard way. She has had a great deal
of attention from men, and how she
loves it. don't believe she would
dream of marrying Bert, even if he
were free. She is simply leading him
along because it flatters her, and he
gives her presents. The last was

Il know this, through another
woman in the office who is my
friend. When l reproached Bert, he
denied nothing, but expressed anger
and horror at my suggestion of a
divorce; he will fight that to the last
ditch, he says.
Il wish could tell you how happy
our life together has been until this
shock burst upon me so suddenly.
We started as high school sweet
hearts, began simply, rejoiced in
the coming of our lovely children,
prospered in the American way, and
only four years ago built the home
of our dreams Now all this struc-
ture seems to be falling about my
ears. l have cried myself sick. I
have considered seeing Sheila and
begging her to go away. My son,
who is my only confidante, has
talked to his father. Our once happy
household has fallen into dark days,
and all because weak man and
an unscrupulous woman choose to
consider themselves in love.
4 Simply Writhe.'
Bert is completely oblivious to
all this. He goes his way. He is abb
sent from home some two or three
nights week, when I simply writhe
at the thought that they are to-
gether, and that she is getting the
tenderness that once was mine. The
loneliness of a woman once loved,
and then scorned, is something no.

perienced it. Will you tell me what
treatment will cure this situation,
how to handle it wisely and get my
husband back? I cannot 60 on like

This agitated and powerful letter
is signed "Thelma." But it might be
signed by a good many once happy
and confident wives, who have had
this same painful awakening. The
sad truth is that after just so many
years of even the happiest marriage
something of the glamor - some
thing of the breath-taking ecstasy
wears away. That is true of all hu-
man relationships, but especially
true of this most delicate and un-
predictable one. Often, if a mar
riage goes on as long as Thelma's,
with the normal element of parent
hood, homemaking, working and
planning together, it lasts. 1t lives

aged companionship, the truest hap

and handsome man realizes that he

with her goodness and badness and

POLITICAL AND OTHERWISE

Politics in Seattle goes into high
gear over the weekend, as the var
ious candidates for mayor and city
council make their last frenzied
appeals to the electorate in pre-
paration for the decisive election on
Tuesday, March 9th. This cores
pendent wouldn't be so foolish as
to even hint at how people should
vote. We do, however, feel on very
safe ground in urging all our read
ers and friends to exert themselves
enough to go out and cast their
ballot. If you have the right to
vote, by all means avail yourself
of the privilege-it is the very
foundation of our democratic form
of government.
Meanwhile, on the national scene,
We note that General MacArthur's
hat has been thrown into the pre-
sidential ring by the Hearst news
papers, no less. In view of the pol
itical objections against profession
al soldiers, it is doubtful that any

Bachelors, bewarei Leap Yea
is here again.
Leap Years, by the way, art
those years in which woman ha;
the privilege of proposing MARI
age quite openly and brazenly in
stead of twisting the mans arm
loose at the socket. A Leap Year
is always Invisible by four, which
reminds us that a bachelor can al
so always be drawn and quarter
ed.
An emergency meeting Of the
BNIPU was called last night. BM-
PU stands for Bachelors Mutual
Protective Union" The meeting
was addressed by the president, a
nervous man with hunted eyesl
Gentlemen and fellow bache-
lOrs, you, who are to suffer un-
told agonies this year, I salute
you. The crisis Is here! Our
union suffered dreadful losses In
1947. What the perilous 194S will
bring-only heaven and the clerk
in the Bureau of Vital Statistics
know"
AT this point, the president COL
lapsed with a terrifying shrek and
had to be assisted out of the room.
The vice president stood up and
oravely carried on.
Leap Year madness has al
ready startd and is more vicious
than ever. We must be ever
mindful of our motto: United we
stand and remain single. Divided
we're hOOked!' Amen.
A report was given by two under
cover agents who had braved many
dangers to bring back the news to
us. For security reasons, their
names shall remain concealed.
From these two men it was learned
that our arch-enemy, The Associa-
ton of Unmarried Ladies. was plan
ming an early spring offensive.
They were counting on the element
of surprise.
A gasp of horror arose. Three
of our stauch members had to be
revived with smelling salts. After
decent interval, one of the mem
bers stood up and attempted to
bolster the sagging morale by:
1T may be a woman's business
to get married as soon as possible
but it's ours to keep unmarried as
long as we can"
A sigh of reinsurance filled the
room this time. Finally, after all
had been revived and brought tot
tering to their feet, the members
scattered for home, smiling bravely.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 3
"A California Nisei scientist said
today that malachite green, a tex
