~-WOMA N’S .PAGE' Two Aspects of Indifference BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘The guality of indifference is strange for it has two opposite sides, one of which is laudable and the other not at 21l commendable. It is important for the home-maker to appreciate these differences, for discrimination may mean the happiness or unhappiness of the femily. In the first instance, the indifferencs always to have one mind about matter: small or large. Each member influence: Sometimes the effort to sway others is | Intenticnal and again entirely inad | vertent. Por instance, a good life has | strong influence on every person who comes in contact with the personality, yet there is in it no deliberate effort the others far more than is appreciated. : to influence others. The reverse is also true, for an evil mind soils others with- out direct intention. depends in a large measure on their | maintaining this sort of indifference, more would strive to cultivate it. The | reaction to the effort pays. Strange to | say, when one does try to gain such indifference it gives a power to see other persons’ pointe of view. It stimulates & kindly tolerance. | The second sort of indifference is a miserable quality. It makes for unhap- [ piness for it is selfish. A selfish per- son is seldom happy but is always on | the lookout to sce that no one gets the better of her. She has a “chip on her shoulder” caring for one's esteem so long as_her comfort is not infringed upon. She walks through life uncon- cerned whether or not she hurts others’ feelings, until finally the actual power is killed. Then a . Any goodness of heart is covered with so hard a shell of indifference to others that the dwindling kernel of worth is unworthily protected and hidden. A forbidding nature results, one that repels by in- difference. And so0 it will be seen that indiffer- ence may be meritorious or despicable. It can be a help or a hindrance to happy home life. When & person grasps the fine side of the quality, it should never be allowed to slip away. Her own hap- piness is at stake as well as the com- lfanrable influence it sheds on all about er. t. 1928.)

Rnndx éihl’nv eIpens Resty With Mother ' Solving the Mother-in-Law Problem | N I HAVE settled the in-law problem satisfactorily by trying to put myself in | J my daughter-in-law’s place and remembering how I felt when I was a | | young married woman,” said a wise woman to me recently. “My boy was a little | ehep when my husband died. <o he is all that I have in the world and naturally I idolize him. We have always been very close together, friends and pals. and, | | of course. it has been a great wrench to me to give him up, and his going has left me lonely enough. “But T never tried to keep him from marrying. because he is of a very | affectionate and domestic temperament—essentially the family man type—and I knew that he would be far happier married than single. He was the sort of | man who would need his own fireside, his own house to putter around, his own | garden to tend. his woman, his little children climbing on his knees. No fate | would have been worse for him than to be a lonely old bachelor living in a | club, with no ties, no one to love or care for and no one to love or care for him. | “Of course, he was devoted to me, but the love a man gives his mother | isn't the soul-satisfying kind that he gives to his wife and his children. He may | be all in all to her. but she doesn’t meet his need for companionship. Besides. my husband and I had been so happy together that I was not willing to deny | my son the joy we had had in each other nor deprive him of knowing the | rapture of parenthood. “So T welcomed my daughter-in-law as a blessing that had been bestowed Jupon my son. something precious and wonderful that would enrich his 1ite, | T have not been jealous because he loves her better than he does me and puts | her before me, because that is the visible proof that he has made the right choice in a mate and that his marriage is a success. For those marriages are failures in which the mother still holds the first place in her son's heart, where he turns to her for sympathy and understanding instead of to his wife. "THEN T faced the fact that so many mothers ignore, that when your son marries you have got to hold him through his wife or lose him. For if vour daughter-in-law dislikes you she will alienate your son from you by a thousand subtle feminine devices on which you cannot perhaps put your finger but which will end by pushing you entirely out of his life. “Almost any wife can make her husband believe anything she wishes him to. He may resent her criticisms of his mother, but he listens to them and comes to believe that mother is a nagging. interfering old woman. Anyway, a man hates a feminine row and the easiest way to keep the peace is not to let wife and mother come in contact, and so as the price of peace many a man rarely goes to ses his mother and has her in his homs as little as he can. “T was determined that this shouldn't happen to me. =0 I courted my ; daughter-in-law as ardently as any lover ever wooed his mistress. As a result she is as devoted to me as an own daughter could be and is always begging me to come and live with them. “But I have intelligence enough and love my son well enough not to: endanger the peace of his home by accepting the invitation. for mother-in-law on a visit and mother-in-law as a permanent fixture in the house are two entirely different propositions. So I keep my own home, live my own life and | have my own interests, and go to see them not too often. Nor do T stay too long. | “I think that it iz especially important for every young couple to be alone ! during the first few years of their married life, because it is a time of adjustment. | “There are bound to be clashes of temperament and taste and opinion. but these are far easier to smooth over if there is no third party looking on and urging the man to b2 the head of the house or telling the woman not to let any | man run over her. Left alone the little flare-up would end in the bride | bursting into tsars and the man calling himself a brute, and they would kiss and make up and no harm would be done; but with mother backing up her | darling child it's the first aid to divorce. 44 A LSO, the presence of mother in the house breaks up the intimacy between husband and wife and prevents them from becoming just one, as they might do if they were alone. The little endearments are suppressed under her eyes, the confidence is not made and the time and mood for telling it passes, and | so mother, quite without intending it, becomes a barrier between her child and the husband or wife. “No matter how wrong things seem in my son's house I offer neither criticism nor advice. My daughter-in-law is a slack housekeeper. according to | my idea, and my son does not have food to eat like his mother cooked, but the way his wife runs his house suits him and that is all there is to it, so far as I | am concerned. «“Moreover. T reflect that T have been on this housekeeping job for 30 vears and she has baen on it for 3. Why should I expect her to have the skill that T possess? No doubt my mother-in-law was just as shocked at my housekeeping as I am at hers. “T remember how cocky T was as a bride and how sure I was that I knew everything about running a house and how I resented any interference, and so 1 hold my tongue when I see food being wasted and dust under the beds and the best china being used every day. “PFor, after all. the point of the whole thing is that T want my boy to be happy. I don't want him to be dissatisfied with hiz wife or to find fault with her, and so I try in every way to ‘sell' her to him instead of pointing out her faults to him. “And the result is that we are all on the most delightful and harmonious terms, and instead of losing my son I have gained a daughter.” DOROTHY DIX.

Th# floral tribute is our last chance 0 do them homage, and we outdo our- r2lves to ease that reproaching voice within which condemns us for our carelessness and apathy in the past. It is a sort of.cleventh hour repentance, an_admission of neglect, if not of guilt. Every husband and every wife rightly suspicious when his or her mate suddenly becomes unusually attentive. This is universally hailed as a sure sign of some transgression. actual, con- templated or imagined. Being nice is a peace offering. The giving attitude on the part of parents creates in their offspring the ' haiyt of expecting to get things without giving anything in return. Added to to say that young people have no true affection for their parents. They cer- |tainly have. Nevertheless. the giving {and forglving spirit of parents tends to invite abuse of these privileges. We all have it in us to exploit every situa- | tion to our advantage. The institution of Mother's day and Father's day proves that we do not appreciate our parents sufficiently, that we need special occasions to bs re. minded of our obligations to them.

He listened to the sound of the man's footsteps dying away. Then he sighed. “It's no use.” said Jimmy to himself, “for me to think of getting out this way. There isn't another opening I can get out. I guess I've got to do some work. I don't like digging, but it looks to me as it I shall have to dig this time. It's a good thing I can dig.
