A Program
For War Wives
THE problems of marriage are
preponderantly the problems
of women. Now, in time of war,
tho future seems to depend on
what the women do today.
There are still women, even In
this age of women's progress, who
believe their effort is over when
they have acquired a husband,
But a woman must keep up or
lose out. The woman who sinks
into mental apathy, who looks at
the world about her without curi
osity or interest, has created a
kind of vacuum of dullness and
boredom about her.
There was a young man from
a plain background who forged
his way up to an important posi
tion and married a charming so
ciety girl. She was pretty and
attractive and ho believed she had
all the qualities he desired in a
women, But he was an energetic
and ambitious chap, very hard
working, and his mind was filled
with theories and ideas that he
wanted to discuss and test in the
crucible of talk. For a few years,
he and his wife were, to all out
ward appearances, happily mar
ried, but the girl made no at
tempt to learn anything about her
husbnnefs ideas and she failed to
conceal her boredom when ho
thrashed them out.
"If he wants to talk business,"
she said impatiently, "let him do
it with someono else."
If he was in love with hor, she
contended, that ought to be
enough. He was In lovo with her,
but it was not enough. In time,
he discovered that other women
were neither bored nor blankly
indifferent when he talked to
them. In tho end, he and his
wife were divorced and ho mar
ried a woman who was not as
pretty as the first wife, but who
cared about sharing his interacts.
TF possible, the war bride should
try to finish college. She
should learn to read the newspa
pers intelligently and to grasp the
issues that are at stake In the
war and in the postwar world.
And she must, by reading tl"- ', ,
counts of the war and the books
of men who have been in action,
try to understand something of
tho experiences through which
her husband has gone.
These young women must ac
quire a broad culture by reading
not merely the contemporary ac
counts of the turmoil in which we
live, but the great books of the
post which illuminate human na
ture and bring the past, glowing
and alive, into the present. They
must know what men hava
thought in the past, where they
have succeeded, where they havo
failed, before they con give con
structive thought to the future.
1 would not venture to indicate
what books should be read, what
subiccts should be studied. These
must be conditioned, in every
case, by tho amount of education
the war bride has received, by
her particular interests and needs,
and by her capacity for self-education.
Her instructors, her high
school teachers, the local librarian
will gladly provide her with read
ing lists.
fpIIE democratic system with Its
self-government Is based upon
an informed citizenry. But the
majority of the young men in the
service have had their education
curtailed. While many plans have
been made to continue or to sup
plement what education they have
when Ihey return, the proboblll
tics aro that only a few will take
advantage of these opportunities.
War Is, at best, an unsettling and
a maturing process, and the re
turned serviceman Is more likely
to want to plunge Into earning a
living particularly if he has mar
ried in haste and has a wife to
support than he is to go back to
school.
Therefore, It is up to the women,
and particularly to the war
brides, to continue their own edu
cations, not only to carry on cul
tural knowledge but to acquire
the practical knowledge necessary
to make a good, well-informed
citizen.
Next: When the War Bride
groom Returns.
