MAIL TRIBUNE, Or. Mo4ay, Nov. 16. 1939 3 Family Council 3S VsTte""' yiV iKLi25 . Frank F. My wife won't apologize. t Sylvia F-I can't go on be ing a hypocrite. Fraak F-What is a man to do when he has a wife who is determined to speak her mind frankly to every one no matter whom she hurts? In a recent family argu ment my wife said, some harsh things to my sister-in-law. I think she was right in what she said, but she shouldn't have said it. As a result there is a family feud. We don't visit one another. We are losing touch with one another. I have begged Sylvia to apologize or at least respond tc the invitations my sister-in- law issues from time to time, but she is the most stubborn woman who ever lived. Does i. pay to have a lifelong feud for no important reason? Sylvia F. My husband may think it is "no important reason," but it happens to be very important to me. My sister-in-law has hurt me many times in many ways and I have tried to overlook it, but I can't go on being a hypocrite. ; I was willing to take it from that woman as long as she didn't interfere with my life. But when she had the nerve to criticize me to my husband for the way I man age my children I felt I had to tell her off in a way she would never forget. I am not trying to keep my husband from seeing his brother if he wants to. That's his business. But I won't apologize because I used a little bad language to a wo man who has hurt me. , . The Council: It's too bad Sylvia felt forced to use "a little bad language." She could so easily have kept her self entirely in the right by telling : her - sister-in-law in good language that she doesn't want her interference in her family affairs and that she certajnly expects her to have the good taste and good sense not to criticize her to her husband. , . However, that part of the damage is done. Now the sis ter-in-law has shown that she doesn't want to perpetuate the feud. Her invitations are clear enough indication that she is ready to call it quits. When sisters-in-law feud the real sufferers are invari ably the husbands. The wo men get a certain satisfaction about being stirred up over something and over the vari ous points they score in the campaign. The husbands are torn in their loyalties. They must stand up for their wives, but this imposes a breach with their brother. It is. nonsense for Sylvia to say she is not standing in the way of her husband's . rela tionship with his brother. He cannot feel comfortable and happy about seeing his broth er without her. It implies dis loyalty to her.: This places Frank in an ugly position whatever he does.

Scientist Says Dog Should Be With Spaceman V i Washington-UPD-A scientist said today that, every space man should have a space dog as companion and life-saver. This proposal was made at the annual meeting of the American Rocket society by Dr. Leslie Kaeburn of Space labs, Inc., Van Nuys, Calif. The dog, Kaeburn said, would serve as a "space ca nary" to warn of danger if it should develop aboard the spacecraft. "Just as coal miners once took canaries along with them as a safety measure to see if the air underground was fit to breathe,, the astronaut should be accompanied by an animal instrumented to warn him 6r a ground observer if his physiological condition be comes ' abnormal," Kaeburn said. . . ' Would Be Friend He added that a dog would be the astronaut's best friend in other ways, too, providing him with companionship and comfort in the lonely reaches of space. v Instruments with tiny radio transmitters would be im planted surgically in the dog to report on the state Of his heart, .nervous system, brain, lungs,' blood pressure and temperature. . .. Spacelabs scientists said they had successfully implant ed a two-ounce radio, three inches long and three-eighths of an inch wide, in a dog to report 'its heart action. .
