& ALCOHOLISM AX!) THE FAMILT"-S ATTITUDE

Now that alcoholism is consid- ered a disease, it is only natural that various cures for this disease are being published by physicians and others who wish to help their ifellolv man. I have written about the use of anfabuse. which is ef- fective if the alcoholic really wants to be cured. As long as he is ullllnz in lake antabuse, he will not drink alcohol: it is this wil- lingness. this wanting to be cured. that is necessary for success in the treatment of alcoholism by any method of cure.

In A rural spot like ours, what activity follows the close of a Win- ter storm! when clouds have lift- ed at last and gusty winds have withdrawn; when restless drifts of days lie still and comes the bright rift of clearing, then do the farm folks hasten to pick up the threads in their pattern of living.

Then do we do those things we ought to have done. but of neces- sity rested in a spell of weather. Now do we "dig out.” in truthl James recalling with respect the deep snows of boyhood winters. and anticipating the worst in a storm likes to leave a. shovel in some sheltered nook of yard to have it in hand when he ap- proaches first doors of morning . . "When folks are building they should allow for a door on that side -- or end less likely to be drifted" James commented at breakfast. By some fortunate turn of circumstance there are some of these at Alderlca at the moment.

The fzeatment of alcoholism by the psychiatrist then consists in having the family back him up in his method of treatment.

.0. Public Criticism Of Male

Shows Lack Of Character

DEAR MISS DIX: Is it. becoming a popular fad to make spnrf. remarks about him? Or am I just a victim of in few cantankerous neiglibors? I. think a lot of my husband and never hesitate to leave that impres- sion, but I find myself in the minority. If a man is not good enough for a woman, why did she marry him? If she says he was good when he married her, then she must have ruined him, so for my: money she might as well quit beefing. I am very proud of my blis- band and am repaid a hundred times a day for my pride in him.

ROBERTA W.

ANSWER: Hurrah for you. Roberta! You arrive at a very accurate conclusion when you my a woman who he-liftles her husband is. in the end,

Your husband should be proud of you for not yield- ing to this contemptlble practice. THEY THINK ITIS FUNNY

Most of the time the nasty remarks are ineant as nothing more than wiseerucks. Many, many wo- men have an idea that the font of wit and humor lies in the ability to make such remarks. Where they acquire such an erroneous notion is beyond me. The exact opposite, of course, is true. Nothing is so wltless as a cutting. sarcastic remark, whether its victim is present company or not. People who make a practice of in- tenttonully hurting nnother's feelings, or casting zlspersions on an- otheris characteristics, brand themselves as the lowest of the ill-hrc-(I. Even their confreres. who may pretend to find their peculiar style of humor funny. are seldom really impressed by it.

When a woman has chosen a man for her husband. and accepts him as such in the presence of God, she is making the most important decision of her life. To let the world know that she is proud of that choice should be her alm from then on. When he achieves the further dignity of becoming the father of her children, she has further cause for pride. and a happy home life is founded on the premise that hus- band. wife and children take mutual joy in each other's endeavors.

It is a curious anomaly that wives who do the most belittling are those who have the least cause. A wife will tear to pieces, over the bridge table. a husband who is a devoted spouse. kind father. ex- emplary church member and citizen. ller reason is readily seen- attrlbuttns: shortcomings to another that she is ashamed of In her- self. By tearing down his reputation, she believes she is building up her own. A contemptible practice of contemptlble females! A woman of dignity would never lower herself to such a practice.

Let the world continue to know. Ildierta. in what esteem you hold your mate and be not impressed with the pc-illness of neighbors.

Q. Is it proper to repeat 1 per- son's name when you are acknow- ledging an introduction?

A. It is not only proper,, but practical. too--because too many people fail to remember the names of people to whom they are intro- duced. Repeating the name, as "How do you do. Mrl. Johnson." helps to print the name in your memory.
