Beware, Wivesl The Revolt of Husbands Is On -- If You Would Keep Your Partners In Marriage, You Must Read, Study and Make Their Interests Your Interests

Listen sisters. There is a revolt of husbands on and it bodes no good to wives. The worm has turned at last and is striking at the heel that has so long flattened it out on the domestic hearth. Andl am warning you. Husbands are no 1011801‘. Wlllmi; t0 take their WlVES "as is," as the shipping manifests say. They are demanding more of their wives than the old standardized wlfely virtues. It used to be that if a woman was "good" she was safe in her job as a wife and her husband charged off his disappointment and disillusion to profit and loss and let it go at that

But those halcyon times for wives are gone. Husbands demand that their wives should be not only good, but good for something. They are no longer satisfied with wives who are merely chaste- They are demanding something more. They are demanding that the" Iivos shall keep themselves attractive looking, that they shall keep their brains furnished up so that they may be interesting to talk to; that they shall be pleasant and agreeable to live with an be Pfligtesslve 3nd mild‘ crn in their viewpoints.

In short, they demand that their wives shall be i930 models with stream-line effects, painted up in the newest color combinations, self- starters and geared up to break the speed laws. And if wife isn't; if she persists in remaining a flivver with the paint knocked of? in SPOtS and if she groans and creaks when she hits the hard spots and never warms up to more than fifteen miles an hour, why she gets scrapped or husband trades off the old wife for a new one. '

Believe me, my dears, the good, old, reliable, hump-shouldered hus- band who stuck to the bad matrimonial bargain he made in his cflllow youth is just about as extinct as the dodo, and he is getting extincter all the time. ' ’

Every day I receive numbers of letters from middle-aged men who tell me that they are leaving their wives and why. They say that their wives feel that they have done their full duty as wives by being virtuous

‘and bearing a child or two and making a reasonably comfortable home, but that they have made no effort to be companions to their husbands or to understand them or to sympathize with them. They hay-rift even shown them any real affection.

{Years ago I tried to interest my wife in the things that into-rested me," says one of these disgruntled husbands. "I tried to get her to read the books that I was reading. She sa. id they bored her to death. l tried to talk to he: on the subjects that held my attention, but she dldnteven make the gesture of listening. She reads nothing but the society column in the newspapers. Bhe does nothing but run around to futile clubs and play bridge. Her opinions are the same as when she was graduated from high school. She hasn't had a new idea in twenty years. She hasn't a single real heart interest except about clothes and contract bridge.

"I loved my wife when I married ‘her, but do I love her now? I

despise the very sight of her. Do I enjoy being with her? I can think of no worse torment. Is there another woman in the case? Certainly. Why shouldn't there be? Will I get a divorce? Surely. Why spoil

the balance of my life living with a dull, stupid, narrow-minded nagging woman? I have too much intelligence to do it.

“And I speak," the man went on, "for thousands of other husbands who are rebelling at the tyranny of being tied to women we have como to loathe, whose only virtue is chastity. They have failed in every other way as wives and we feel that it is cruelly unjust that we should be forc- ed to have them hung like millstones around our necks.

"But we are not going to do it in the future, and if women want to keep their husbands they have got to get it out of their heads that all they have to do is to keep in the strait and narrow path. They have got to make themselves desirable if they want to be desired.‘

That is the middle-aged man's side ofthe question. Leaving out of the discussion the right or wrong of it, there is one phase of the matter to which I earnestly desire to call the attention of the middle-aged wives.

And it is this: In tho immortal words of Mr. Cleveland, "it is a. con- dition and not a theory that confronts us," and the fact stares us in the face that the muriage ceremony in these days does not give a wife a quit-laim deed on amen until death pats them. No woman can now frame her marriage license and hang it over the bureau and sit down and fold her hands and let it go at that.

_....i_

Never was the position of the wife such a precarious one as it is at the prercr‘ ‘ime, and the woman who wants to keep her husband has to be up and doing and repairing her fences all the time. In the past women felt that marriage gave them the right to slump and eat onions and generally let nature take its course in the way of fat and temper and dullness.

Few wives felt called upon to dress up for their husbands. Fewer still to jolly their husbands along, still fewer to be entertaining compan-

ions. Some didn't even think it necessary to be good housekeepers. A husband was somebody who had to pay his wife's bills, no matter how sho treated him, and the position of wife was one that she didn't have to make good on, because it was a. life situation that she couldn't lose if she tried.

But all that is changed. Every married man is now associated daily in business with women who are well-dressed and well-groomed; who are intelligent and efficient; who read and think and are full of new ideas and whose business it is to be diplomatic and suave and agreeable to their bosses. These women set astandard for women with which the wives have to compete, and woe to those who fail to make good.

Perhaps it ls too late for the middle-aged wives whoilnlve let them-

selves grow stupid and nagging and narrow to do anything about it. They are sunk, but tho warning is plain for all young wives. They must read and study to keep abreast of their husbands. They must make their husbands interest their interest if they want to keep them from joining the revolt of husbands. For man's definition of a good wife has ilhenfled- DOROTHY DIX.
