MARITAL BANKRUPTCY

No firm could grow big and rich and powerful if the partners did not trust each other, nor if they were Jealous of each others authority, nor if they could not talk over their plans freely together. and the suc- cess of every marriage depends precisely on the cams setup.

Many a marriage goes into financial as well as spiritual bank- ruptcy because a husband is so autistic and so determined to be the head of the house that he resents his wife making even a suggestion to him about things that are her concern as well as his. And many a woman runs her husband into debt because he never tells her any- thing about his business affairs and she dos! not know what their in- come is.

Much of the peevislmess and discontent that makes so many wives hard to live with. stems directly back to their husbands not giving them a fair deal on the money proposition. ‘They know that they are hold- ing up their end oi the partnership just as well as their husbands are. They are working just as hard in the home as their husbands are in their stores or offices. They are good managers. They are thrifty and savixlilgea and the family fortune is being built on the pennies they have pnc .

Their husbands would not dream of holding out a, man parmefs share of the profits in the firm, but they do not recognize their wives’ right to any part of it. They dole them out a small allowance for the , housekeeping. They make them come to them and wheedle to get the‘ price of a new ha-t. They never give them any of the money they have earned a dozen times over. And they even have the nerve to talk about supporting them.

Perhaps the most curious phase of this whole matter is that hus- bands and wives so seldom go partners in their children. They don't even say "our" when speaking of them. They say "my" when the youngster reflects credit on them and "your" when he or she is s little hoodlum. It is the lack of teamwork between parents that glvu us the juvenile delinquency problem that wrecks homes, Just as the lack of authority and discipline would wreck any business enterprise if the partners did not co-operate.
