The beauty shops BIB Inn 0n the‘ 18B! 0f WlYE-l m“ thev Will lose their husbands’ affections if they dont keep youns and beautiful. it is fear that drives innumerable women into making unsuitable marriagcs. When the average woman gets into the thirties und i5 still single she flies into a blind panic in which she loses her reason and will marry anything in trousers that happens along. She may be a wflmfln of independent means. She may be a successful business woman. And life may be full of family affection, good friends, interests and amuse- men's, as agreeable an existence as one could wish. But she gets scared of the future and afraid that she may be lone- some, or regret not having married. and so she takes the rejected BMW!‘ whom she has refused a dozen times, or marries the widower with Bel/en chllcirrn, or the down-nnd-outel she has to support. FEARS DOMINATING SOME MARRIAGES Other women marry becaue they are afraid of being called old maids. They arr. not in love with themen they marry. They know they are not bettcring their condition, socially or financially. by marrying. They have no urge towards marriage. On the contrary, they are celibate by nature. and much prefer their own freedom to a husband. but they ‘havent the nerve to go along and live their own lives the way they want to d0. us men do. and marry. or not, as they please. It is sheer cowardice that makes so many women endure the martyr- dom ti miserable marriages. They submit to every sort of humiliation. Tnev lt-t their husband: insult and revile them. They put. up with $18!"- wads cf husbands who begrudge them the very food they eat. They slave for husbands who never give them a kind word. They stand for gfullclll- ness and surlincss and ill-temper simply because they lack the backbone to get up and get out. They are so ilfhild of whut might happen to them in the outside world, though nothing could be any worse than what they are Sufferln! at home. No one could be crueler to them than their husbands art'- Ncwhere would they have to work harder than thev do in their Homes- But they stay on in sodden misery, downtrodden, despised, kicked BBO“! like a dog. because they haven't the courage to put up a fight for their own happiness, or to rebel against their tyrants. AFRAID T0 WORK TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES It is womcrrs lack of courage that keeps them from snapping their finger: in Mrs. G1undv's face and doing the things they wanted to on and that Nature intended them to do. They are so afraid of what P9011“? will say if they take in sewing, or start a boarding house, or get a 10b Nik- lng care of children. that they would pay them gOOd money and let them be independent and happy, that they go to live with their children, where they kntw thev are unwelcome guests to their in-laws, or they become parasites and hangers-on oi relatives who grudge them the pittance they dole out to them. And it is lack of courage. nine tlrnes out of ten. that mukes women commit the supreme follv of trying to keep up with people who are better off than they are. Thcv are afraid that they might be criticised if their entertainments are not as elaborate as somebody else‘s: if their clothe! are nr-t as smart; 1f their cars are not as expensive, so they run into debt that swamps them and ruins them.
