If a boy has always seen his father treat his mother as if she were

still a lady love; if Dad has been gentle and kind and considerate of l mother. it is dollars to doughnuts that he will handle his own wife that

way. But if he has grown up in a family where the wife's status was l only that of an unpaid servant; if he has seen- her knocked about. sworn at. her pleasure and her happiness never considered. the chances are that he will make a doormat of his own wllc.

And if a girl has a mother who is a. henpeckcr and a nagger and who regards her husband as nothing but a slave to earn money for (her; if her mother is o. lazy. slovenly housekeeper who feeds her fam-

ily on food that would kill an ostrich, he betting is that she will run ' true to form and make just the kind of wife that Mother does.

I Oi course, there are exceptions to every rule. and this is true of 'marriage as of everything else. For. while boys and girls do almost al- ‘ways make the kind of husbands and wives that their parents arc.

there are cases in which they revolt against the family oattem. Many | a man is over-tender to his wife because his father was so harsh to his mnoiher. Many a wife spoils her husband to death because she was al- lways so sorry for her poor. downtrodden father.
