Matrimonial Ledger
EN complain ol lack of per
sonal freedom, women of do
mestic slavery and economic diffi
culties. H they are happily ad
Justed in other ways, neither per
sonal freedom nor domestic duties
weigh heavily In the bolance.
These are results, not causes. ,
The economic problem looms
greater In the eyes of women than
In those of men, In contradiction
to our popular theories on trie
subject. Time and again, we have
seen that a man's financial dis
honesty was brought about in a
desperate effort to satisfy a
woman's demands for confforts
end luxuries or social importance.
Time and again, a man has stolen
money or juggled funds dis
honestly because he had never
told his wife frankly what his
financial position really was. If he
had taken his wife into his con
fidence, she would willingly and
gladly have gone without .things
which she demanded because she
believed them to be attainable. .
The demand for mora personal
freedom is usually the result of
a lack of tact It comes in part
from a woman's possessive in
stinct. Her husband must not look
at another woman,, He must .not
spend any time -with his men
friends. He must not read or de
vote his leisure time to any nor.
.' sonal hobby.
i
T HAVE been alone all day.
A Why don't you talk to me?"
his wife complains. . "You have
plenty to say to your friends. I
notice, but you never open your
mouth in the house."
Modern life requires that the
vast majority of men work for a
living. The only leisure that they
nave is in me evening. There is
no person who does not require
privacy and quiet, and a few
hours for his own interests. Where
is he to find them if not at homeT
Home is a place of community
living, true, Dut it mum also be a
place where tho individual can
find privacy for his body and
privacy for his mind.
The married partner who falls
to respect that privacy, wio at
tempts to invade it, is d'ng a
real Injury to the other. Most of
the complaints of lack of freedom
are rcnlly complaints of lack of
mental and spiritual privacy.
VPTIEN you sit down to Kilnncc
your matrimonial books on
your wedding anniversary, what
are you going to find? There will
bo many items on the credit side,
many on the debit side. . Before
you ndd all these debit Items and
look nt the forbidding total, ask
yourself: What is there in my
marriage which has been most
disappointing? Is it an Insuffi
cient amount of love or compan
ionship? Is it a material lack of
money or possessions, or of social
position and influence? That an
swer will reveal not merely what
Is wrong with your marriage but
what is wrong with you. Is -it
happiness you want or nfflucnce7
Before you add up the list of
your husband's bad habits, make
a list of your own habits which
are annoying to him. Do you
make the same excuses for his
shortcomings that you make for
your own? Have you honestly
tried to correct the things ho dis
likes? Arc you friends? If not, why
not? Have you made a genuine
'effort to find common interests
nnd to share your husband's en
thusiasms? Do you let him talk
to you without deflating his ego
or nagging or saying things de
signed to hurt his self-esteem?,
When you bnvc added up both
sides of your matrimonial ledger,
do not fling the record away, cry
ing that the situation is hopeless.
No situation is hopeless. Do not
be discouraged until you have
done everything possible to wipe
out those items on the red side of
tho ledger.
