When tne War
Bridegroom Returns
p' Is net only In things of the
mind that the war bride can
utilize th2 .time while she waits
for her husband to come home.
The worn n's basic contribution to
the future Is still that of prepar
ing herself for a hdme. This In
cludes learning to manage a house
or apartment; to make It attrac
tive, to cook meals which are
ugrecablc and contain the proper
nutrition, and to do so en a budget.
So many of our fighting men,
perhaps Just out of college, per
haps with one year or more of
college, or a high school educa
tion, are going to return homo un
equipped to earn a living. Their
salaries, in most cases, uro bound
to be extremely small for some
time. The war bride who under
stands that and is prepared to live
economically and, if need be, to
help earn the living, vill be o
bettor wife than the woman who
is ill-equipjVed to handle money
and who will demand of her hus
band n scale of living which he
is unable to provide. '
THE day will come when the
-. serviceman returns, when the
war marriage will become a peace
lime marriage, and wl:n a man
and woman, innrricd perhaps in
hnslo, must take up the job of
learning to live together.
For long months, they have
been separated. Their lives have
followed totally different chan
nels. It is a stranger who has
come back, and Intimate family
llfo with a stranger Is not easy.
It has to be learned from the be
ginning, step by step.
For the war bride who has to
make the psychological approach
to n man of unknown qualities
and potentialities, the greatest
help will come wilh a clear un
derstanding of the conditions
which hove brought ubout these
changes In the man she mnrrled,
nnd the experiences which have
altered, perhaps, is character
and his personality, his sense of
values, nnd the Held of his In
terests. The extent of the changes
will depend on many factors on
the nature of the experience to
which the man has been sub
Jectefl, on his emotional equilibri
um, and on his age.
One thing is certain this Is no
gentle hoy who has returned. It
Is a man hardened by danger and
horror. Sometimes, if the man is
strong enough and wise enough,
he has been able to hold onto his
civilization, to keep his soul free
of the primitive thing that war
unleashes. Sometimes, ho has
given way lo savage brutality and
hatred nnd fear, and civilization
has been stripped from him as
completely as though men hnd not
built it painfully for thousands of
years. Sometimes, young nnd Im
pressionable, brought up in an at
mosphere of decency nnd kindli
ness, the shock of horror and
bloodshed is more than his spirit
can bear. He believes no more
in the decent nnd kindly things,
and he is sick to death of the
horrors. He has lost one set of
values and has acquired no others
lo lake their place.
I F those men, embittered or
' brutalized or shocked by the
Horrors of war, arc to be read
justed to life in a world at peace,
their well-being will rest, lo a
vast extent, e.ll the understanding
of their wives and on the cITorts
these women make to see that
their lives together are happy
during the tlrst months.
One of the great lacks in mar
riage is the lack of common
interests nothing to talk about.
The ln:in who returns from the
war is going to need interests to
counteract the Hat feeling of re
turn lo peace. Do you know what
bis interests are? Do you share
them? Do you know how lo de
velop others which you both can
;;harc?
An outside Interest, n hobby
which iH be absorbing, can do
a vasl amount iu helping a man
to readjust himself to civil life.
