Dear Miss Grey: I think we must go back several gener- tions to get at the root of our domestic troubles, and it sdrely started with the men. If it was our Creator’s intention that women were to be) subjected to their husbands, He certainly intended the hus- ra is ¥ band to be worthy of the plac life. e he was to fill in that wife If He said to the woman, “Love, honor and obey” your) sband, He also said to the man, “Love, honor and cherish r wife.” As long as men lived up to their part of the bargain, there as no trouble at all, but little by little they grew slack in| morals, slack in religion, and consequently, slack in the per- formance of their obligations to their wives and children, Women made heroic efforts They clung desperately to the ideal to their side of life. home life they had to live of been taught, that a woman must cleave ugto her husband “for better or for worse.” ships. She had to see her children clothed in rags and half starved, while she could do nothing to prevent, but to send up agonized prayers to God in her dire need. But after awhile women came to the conclusion that the old adage, “God helps those who help them selves,” must apply to them. At any Fate, they began their fight for wo Men's rights. They decided that Right makes might, and things have rely changed in their favor, But ty have not worked things out just Fight yet. I admire a woman who is independent and capable of earning r living. ie her husband's place to do that for her. A wife should be kept busy and happy making her home And pleasant for her husband and children. No home ts complete with ut children. Motherhood is woman's ) mission and her crowning glory. To do this a woman must have! & husband who t# worthy of her trust, her love; she must be able to Jook up to him for counsel, for pro- tection, for her happiness and plea: Sure in life.
