Whether or Not a Husband Wants to Culti- vate HisMind Depends on His Attitude Toward His Wife's Efforts to Help Him Gain the Goal He Seeks

Dear I iothv Dian-Suppose a mm wu brought up on an Obscure farm far away from everything cultural and had no opwrtunities of edu- cation. Suppose he has had to work and struggle for his own livrig since

his early childhood and has not had the time to seek the finer things of life. Suppose such a man meets an intellizeni. Well-Md and refined girl with whom he falls in love and who loves him in return. Supposeshe is willing to teach him the things he does not know, to love good music, to appreciate the arts. Suppose he is willing and eager to learn if only to make himself worthy of her. Would you think mat if he married her they would be happy together? Would she be ashamed of him and grow tired of him?

ANDREW.

Answer: a

I think that such a marriage would have every chance of being gloriously happy. 811d ‘ that instead o1’ being ashamed of you 1'01‘ not being a college graduate your wife would be filled with the overween- lng pride that the women have who are married to self-made meii. A wife ls never ashamed of a husband not knowing the things that she knows when he has not had the educational advantages that she has had She is only ashamed when he is too stupid to want to learn, and too vain and egotistical to be willing to let her help him and give him the benefit

Poor country boy who had lit- tle formal schooling and ha dto g0 to work when a mere boy, but he mar- ried a woman who saw what a wonderful mind he had and began to help him cultivate it. He was too busy getting a start in the world to have time to read much, so she made abstracts of books, marked passages in magazines that. were the gists of articles. She read to him, talked to him and corrected every solecism of speech until he became a. highly cul- tivated man. But he took what she could give, whereas most men re- sent even a. suggwtion from their wives.

You are too humble in your estimate of yourself. The mere fact that you so crave knowledge shows that you have an intellectual hunger that you will satisfy in some way. Besides .you make the mistake in think- ing that all education comes from books. It doesn't. Life and exper- ience are the great teach a and those who graduate from the University of Hard Knocks have generally far more wisdom than those who know ifinly what they have been taught in schools.

Dear Miss Dix — I am a travelling salesman. married to the sweetest. girl in the world. Have a. lovely home and a baby. My trouble is this: Often one of my customers and his wife wilharrange a. little party and invite a. girl to come along as a. partner for me. . 1 have objected to thta as being unfair to my wife, but they laught it of‘! and say: "What your wife doesn't know won't hurt her." My wife 1s not Jealous or suspicious, but I know she will be if this kind of thing goes on. I love her and my baby and don't want any trouble to come between us, but I don't know how to make my friends keep from treating me as if I were a bachelor, for naturally I don't want to offend a customer. What can I do?

K

Answer:

I. don't know. but it would be better to run the r’sk of losing a cus- rtomerhthan losing your wife by going on blind dates with girls when away i-om ome.

Perhaps if you make your customer understand that you are that rare bird, a loyal husband. and don't feel that it is giving your wife a. square deal to g0 on parties with women, he will like you all the better foi- it, trust you the more and be anxious to help you by giving you his orders. A-t any rate, you may be very sure that your attitude will make o. hit with his wife arid she will always be saving to her husband: "Why don't you buy from that nice Mr. G. A. K. who is so devoted to his wife and baby?"
