There were three in our party- ' all farmwives by occupation though age has given its the privilege of looking upon our office not with the fervor and busy-ness of once. but in a more detached way.

Tale-Bearing Inadviseble: Can Cause Serious Harm

or woman and I dorat see how you can expect a friend to stand by an see someone wreck a happy marriage. In my 60 years. I have seen five different homes ruined by home-wreckers. often posinl as the wife's friends. When we see these wicked women carry- ing on their nefarious work. why shouldn't we tell the wronged wife?

Right now I know of a home in town that is slowly on its way to ruin. The wife is an ex- C8PU0n8i1Y iovely person with three children. A few years ago some gossip told her that her hus- band was connected with si girl in trouble. and she left him. She came back. and now the hu- band is involved with a young wife who has recently moved into our neighborhood. The new- comer is friendly with my friend, who. of course. - knows nothing of the affair going on between the neighbor and her own husband. What possible advantage can there be in keeping my young friend in the dark concerning her husband's activities?

ANSWQ1: No universal problem can be solved with a pat answer that will fit all cases. Never have I had the presumption to claim it does; but one solution very often will be best in the most number ofyinstances. Also remember that. in ii situation involving wrong- doing, no possible solution can wipe out. or even mitigate. the sin without the sinner himself repentlng and atoning.

SHE PROBABLY KNOWS

It should be obvious, therefore. that when as serious is transgres- sion as adultery is involved, the question of whether or not the wife is informed, or by whom, becomes secondary to the guilt. In the very vast m.-ilorlty of cases, a philanriering husband errs once. You may be sure that if he is a chronic offender the wife knows all about it, though pride may keep her from admitting her knowledge.

If the one-time philanderer realizes the error of his ways4as he usually does in short lime-his wife is better left in blissful ignor- Knowing that he has strayed from the straight and narrow

lzikcs him flwfly from home. even for a few hours. she will be suspic- ious. Is it fair to jeopardize the future harmony of her home simply to satisfy the desire of gossiping neighbors to carry bad news? And make no mistake about it! While your own intentions may be purely friendly and helpful. most bad news is carried by people whose only purpose-though of course they will never ndmit it--is to cause trou- ble arid disscnsiori. Their personal interest is nil; their desire to create trouble tremendous.

Since the young wife you mention has already had cause to leave her husband because of infidelity, she certainly is not so blind as to be oblivious to the present circumstances. Her apparent ignor- anrc springs. probably. from a desire to hold a home together for her children. or in hopes that the husband will repent and come buck as he did before. If it ever becomes absolutely necessary for bad news to be carried home to an unwitting wife. such is the prerog- ative of a relative. Never could I put such a dangerous weapon into the hand of a friend or neighbor. no matter how devoted she may be

A sud. den breaking away from old bonds or limitations could make way for 50imd DTOSTPKS.

ANSWER: As you are bound to know, there is but one answer I Con possibly give you. This romance must be terminated if you are to avoid the tragedy of breaking up two homes and finding great un- happiness for yourselves. As a competent business woman, you should have sense enough. and conscience enough. to realize the terrible consequences of extra-marital love affairs. No specious arguments for a "rzrerit. love" can cover the fact that you are breaking one of God's Commandments and cannot: escape the consequences if you encourage this affair to continue. At any cost, end it now!
