I don't believe that there is any secretary who can take her boss away , from his wife if the wife is on her Job of brine a Wtfe I! Wives ma" their husbands‘ lives pleasant enough at home, they are only too glad to go back Eb the Little Woman instead of stepping out with Miss Pothooks. rather keep office hours strictly business than to have to race their bosses to the door every time they go in to "take a ietter." ' A SECRETARY AND ALSO A WIFE AIBWIR: 0. K., sister. Wives’ suspicion t0 the contrary, more philandering goes on in draw- ing rooms than ever does in offices because in business hours a man's thoughts are on making money and not on making love. Also, few bosses look like figures of romance to the young women who have to stand their tempers and tantrums. More secre- taries are sorry for their bosses’ wives than are trying to steal their I shoes. Of course, there are secretaries who are home-Wreckers, but don't forget there are other secretaries who do a lot of hard work that makes it possible for their bosses’ wives to have mink coats. ALL SORTS 0F BOSSES And there are bosses who treat their secretaries as they wifild like some other man to treat their daughters, if they had ‘ziearn their living, just as there are other bosses who commit the lowest ZTITIIE of which any man is capable, and that is making a poor girl, WIlOSE family is dependent upon her, keep her Job at the price of her honor. 0f course, only too many wives do save their faces by blaming their husbands’ secretaries when their Johns begin to step out oc- casioncilly. but this is because she is Saily-on-the-spot, and you can't wonder that a middle-aged wife, who compares her fading charms with cause for it or not. DIJAR DOROTHY DIX: When my husband went into the navy. I went home to live with my parents. Now my husband is almost duc for a seven-day leave and his parents think we should come and stay at their house while he is at home, although they have had nothing to do‘ with me while he has been gone. His father and mother have caused many quarrels between us while he was at home and his mother writes to him and complains to him of me constantly. I hate to spoil his leave and our happiness of being together by telling him about what his patents have done but I am sick and tired of the way they treat me. What should I do under the circumstances? WORRIED ANSWER: ‘Phere is no possible way by which 'you can reveal to your husband the strained relationship that exists between you and his family without taking all of the pleasure out of the leave. If you refuse to go to his parents’ house to be with him, and if you tell him all the unkind things his mother has said and done to you. you will force him to take sides between you and bring on a domestic brawl that will embitter every minute of his stay. So if you really love your husband, declare an armistice for the duration of his leave. Keep your grievances to yourself. Treat his mother as if she were a friend instead of an enemy and let him take only happy memories away with him when he goes back to duty. It will take courage and heroism to do this, but it will be worth it. DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Can you give some suggestions as to how a man who is a complete bed patient may occupy his time? Any advice as to some constructive pastime would be appreciated, especial- ly if it would afford a means whereby he might make a small income. READER ANSWER: Apply to the management of your local hospital for advice. Nearly all large hospitals now have departments of occupa; tional therapy. D>fii9<lwihlw 0il Better English II. O.
