H D Help Minimize Sacrifices In Husband's Job Change No one should be called upjn to make sacrifices indefinitely. However, temporary sacrifices, when it is evident they will lead to better things, are worthwhile. (Q) "My husband has a good job which pays well but he says t - S lure 10 II. ns has been offer ed a job with another com pany which is opening an of fice in our c o m m u n ity. He will not be paid as well at first as he now Dr. Hurlock is. but he says he will make much more money in the long run if he makes good in this work. He is very anxious to make the change but 1 have opposed it because it will mean less money for a year or so. and this will mean we will have to cut down on what we have been used to having. Also, he will get no vaca tion this summer and we will have to stay home. Another thing that bothers me is his hours will be longer and he will have to work on Saturdays until the new business gets a good start. 1 wonder if I am be ing unfair to him by opposing the change. I would like your advice on this matter." L.S. (A) I am sure your husband has investigated the possibilities the new job offers very care fully and knows what sort of company he would be associat ed with. If he is satisfied this new job will offer a brighter future than he now has, I think you should urge him to take the new job. A person cannot be happy in work where he feels there :is a ceiling over his head which will keep him from making the pro gress he is capable of. Your husband will be looking for a better job and this will decrease his efficiency in his present work and increase his dissatis faction. Most people must make tem porary sacrifices when the breadwinner of the family shifts from one job to another. If they do not have to live on less money, it may mean moving to another community or giving up the annual vacation for that year, or working overtime. If your husband is willing to make these sacrifices and is con vinced they are worthwhile, go along with him in a cheerful manner and let him see you are with him. Your cheerfulness will go a long way toward tak ing the sting out of the sacrifices he must make. (Copyright 1956. General Features Corp.) - Talkative Women Have Longer Life Detroit (U.R Just keep talk ing away, lady, it may lengthen your life. ' A knack for gossiping away "repressed hostility" is one rea son women live longer than men, according to Dr. Ira M. Altshuler. "The American male goes soon and silent to his grave be cause he keeps his big mouth shut when he ought to be letting off steam," the Detroit psychia trist said. What's more, he said, women have an easier time of it in life because men work like crazy trying to keep them happy. "Clothing and furniture manu facturers, finance companies they're all out to make the little woman happy at the expense of her husband's wallet, and at the expense of his longevity," he said. "Even the auto industry has caught on," he said. "It's not the road performance or the gasoline mileage that counts. What sells a new car is how well it matches milady's new spring coat." The rest of America's eco nomic system puts the frosting on milady's ego, he said. "When the ego is satisfied, the lady lives longer," he said. Warning Issued Against Repeated Meter Feeding Motorists who park vehicles in parking spaces for longer than the maximum time desig nated by the meter were warn ed by Police Chief Charles Champlin. He said violators are liable for $2.50 fines. The police de partment has received com plaints that part of the down town parking problem is due to car owners who repeatedly feed meters and monopolize parking spaces.
