Charting a Course
For the War Bride
rpHE war bride has an un
charted course to follow, and
most of the advice which is show
ered upon a young married
woman Is of no value to her. The
reason, of course, Js that marriage
Is normally a state of being to
gether while the war marriage Is
a state of being apart.
The woman of courage will be
able to manage, however, If she
has, as Wordsworth says, "A few
sound Instincts and a few plain
rules."
If the soldier husband is able
to live at home part of (he time,
the best rule, now as always, it:
"Set up a home of your own."
It is not important that the home
should be elaborate or properly
and completely furnished.. Who
can do that, with priorities and
taxes staring them ln the face?
What does matter is that a couple
should have a separate establish
ment, working out their own
destiny without too much inter
ference from their parents.
For the most part, it is not
possible for the war bride to live
with her husband. Indeed, if he
is shipped from camp to camp in
this country, a sound rule for her
is not to follow her husband
around. This Is rarely satisfactory;
the wife is not content if her hus
band can give her little time, and
she faces the difficulty of pulling
up stakes constantly. He can pro
vide her at best only with a
travesty of a home.
1 :-. 1
A S a rule, a newly married cou
pie begin their adjustment to
one another and to married life
in the privacy of their own home
or apartment. In wartime, many
of them are attempting to make
this delicate- adjustment under
Impossible conditions, without
privacy, in Army camps where
living conditions are crowded and
unpleasant, or in the home of
one or Uifi, surrounded by the
family.
There is no socurlty, ho sense
of permanency, only an ntmos
phcre of strangeness and discom
fort. Separation awaits them at
any moment. It is certainly the
exceptional, not the average, mar
riage which can survive .these
weeks of distorted living.
The third rule for the war
brido is, "Keep in touch with your
husband's family." This is par
ticularly Important , in wartime
when the serviceman needs, in
the midst of chaos and violence,
to know that there is harmony at
home. The war bride should make
an effort to be friends with her
husband's family and to see them
frequently if she can. Reassur
ing news of this kind can do
wonders at setting a ' fighting
man's worries at rest and build
ing his morale.
TT Is absurd for a young couple
to marry with the short-sighted
idea, "I am marrying you, not
your family." The family, on
both sides, will inevitably prove
to be an important factor in your
life. 1 1
No bride can adord to forget
that, henceforth, like It or not,
her life is going to be closely
bound up with "the whole con
nection of the Individual man."
It is extremely important,
therefore, that Ihc couple shall
be congenial with their in-laws.
If there ore strong antagonisms
on either side, better stop and
reconsider. For the fourth rule
Is, "Keep on good terms with
your in-laws."
The de?p-lying Importance of
solving tho In-low problem In
telligently appears when we learn
that whatever the ostensible
reasons given in court more di
vorces are caused by the inter
ference of In-laws or by the ne
ccsslty of having tho parents,
either of tho husband or the wife,
living with their married sons and
daughters, than from any other
cause.
