pulling each others hair out
I feel 1t! ! tried sitting
through q TV wrestling
match just once because !
wanted to be q pal to my
husband, but all the slam
ming and jabbing made me
i'll.
The funny part is that my
friends all envy me because
my husband Is so home
loving and has so many
interests. "Adele's husband, "
they say, can entertain him.
self and she's free to do what
she wants"
They don't know the truth.
Anything he's interested in,
he says he can't enjoy unless
I'm interested too.
Irwin K.-There's nothing
worse than a closed mind. I've
tried to show my wife that
wrestling isn't just a matter
Of brute force. There's a lot
Of skill-and strategy involved.
If she'd only study the grisps
and follow those fellows from
week to week, she'd get inter-
ested, too.
But 1t seems all I have to
do Is to like something and
she'll automatically hate it.
Sometimes, I feel she's run
ming from me, not the
wrestling.
And it's not Just wrestling.
When I want her to see my
tomato plants and watch me
transplant them from my
small pots to the back yard,
she runs. It's the same when
I'm developing pictures in
our dark room.
She's being narrow-minded
and stubborn.
THE COUNCILS VIEW
Look and let look" should
be the slogan in this home.
Mr.. KS desire to heighten
his own pleasure in wrestling
by sharing 1t with his wife
is natural. But forcing her to
look is making it all the more
distaSteful to her. She's
thankful for eyelids which
can shut 1t out and legs
which can carry her away.
And Mrs. ks small-scale
"desertion" doesn't bespeak
q lack Of affection for her
husband. It stems from
resentment over his complete
disregard Of her tastes, her
preferences, her hobbies.
What Mr.. K. calls stub
bornness is really a protest
against being clamped into O
mold selected by her husband
We suggest to Mrs. K, how
ever. that she peek in on her
husbands activities. There
is no wholesome human &C
tivity that's really dull and
boring. The more eagerness
and curiosity you bring to it
the more fascinating detail
you discover.
The day may we'll come for
the KS when Adele watches
a wrestling match while Irwin
watches the cake in the oven,

Ethel. He had keyed himself up to
meet sharp retort, some sarcastic
comment about his preferring bar to
his own home, even an outburst of
tears. But to his amazement Ethel
took it quite calmly.
why, yes, of course, DEAR" she
said. It'll do you good to have an
evening with your friends"
A little taken aback, he asked
whether she would rather he didn'tgo.
why, no, she answered. Fl shall
have lovely time. | won't be lonely"
This was on Monday. Simmons
planned to go out on Friday night,
meeting the boys for dinner at the
club, and after that they would spend
the evening playing billiards or bowl
ing. All the week he went about in a
glow of anticipation. At the Office he
spoke in an offhand way Of the pleas
ant evenings man can have in town,
and Pitied the Prosalc beggars who
never stir from the house at night.
On Friday evening he came
home hurriedly, staying just long
enough to shave and put on fresh
shirt. Ethel had on pretty dress and
seemed very cheerful. A strange sink
ing feeling came over him as he saw
the familiar room shining with fire.
light and the shabby armchair.
Would you rather | stayed at
home?" he asked.

He kissed her once and went off.
When he got on the bus back to the
city a sudden revulsion struck him.
He was tired and wanted to 60 home.
Why on earth spend the evening with
a lot of drunken rowdies when he
might be at his own hearth watching
Ethers face bent over her sewing? He
saw little enough of her anyway.
At the door of the club he halted.
Inside, the crowd was laughing, shout
ing jests, dicing for cocktails. Sud-
denly he turned and ran.
He cursed himself for a fool, but
none the less an irresistible force
seemed to draw him home. On the bus
he sat Glum and silent, wondering
how all the other men could read
their papers so contentedly.
At last he reached the modest little
suburb. He hurried along the street
and had almost entered his gate when
he paused.
