MELLOR, Agent “EVERY DRIVER NEEDS A FORD CAR’’ Vhhhhhbhbhhbhhbhhihhi World Herald of Sunday. Following is the interview with Mias Mullen as it appeared Sunday: Of the 128 cases that have passed under her supervision as a worker in the domestic relations section of the Public Welfare board since June 1, Miss Marne Mullen attributes the causes of trouble to extravagance on the wife’s part, non-support on the husband’s part, and general lack of patience, common sense, and willing ness to play fair. “Marriages certainly are not made in heaven,' conceded Miss Mullen, when interviewed on her work. “At least, tho3e that have come under my supervision were not, for the parties allowed in many cases the most trival natters to disrupt their home life. In one case the wife was enraged be cause her husband had talked to an other woman over the telephone dur ing her absence from home. The ag grieved wife clamored for a divorce, but wa3 pacified when she was di rected to an attorney, and heard the fee required to obtain her freedom. Then she bagan to find solace, and eventually ‘made up’ with her spouSe iwho had talked on the ‘phone,” said Miss Muilen. Miss Mullen is particularly well equipped by education to advise dis couraged wives and dissatisfied hus bands. She was formerly head of the home economics department at the State Normal school, Peru, Neb., and knows at first hand the value of home making work, as making one’s clothes, learning to cook, proper care of the sick, care of infants, following the budget system or having an allowance for the housewife, and maintaining system in housekeeping. She has con siderable knowledge of the law, and is a practical business woman herself, all of which afford her basis for judg ment and sympathetic understanding. Miss Mullen, who is a sister of Arthur F. Mullen, prominent attorney, lives with her mother, Mrs. Emily Mullen, at Benson. As a side ljne Miss Mullen raises high bred hogs. "It’s strange what some men pick out for a wife, a frivolous thing with thin silk hose and low shoes in 38 degrees belohv zero weather, and then expect her to have good health, know how to keep house, and be an all around sensible manager and good cook,” says Miss Mullen. “When one or the other party brings a complaint. I listen carefully to the tale of woe, study the type of person, and call in the other party to get the other side of the story. I visit homes to get the domestic ‘atmosphere,’ and then ad vise them both to cultivate patience, to have a.bit of system in their home keeping, and for the man to give his Wife ap allowance. The wife should make it her business to purchase household articles and food, under stand prices and values, and take the burden of marketing off her husband as much as possible. Marriage is truly a fifty-fifty job, and women should be willing to do their share.” “While it -is a case of fifty-fifty, woman’s inefficiency, and man’s irre sponsibility, which bring people into the domestic relations court, I detect specific causes which could be rem edied, if they Would exercise a bit of self-restraint and judgment,” declares Miss Mullen. “Practically all our cases are among Omaha people, hence they are accustomed to conditions of city life. Too often the wife allows backdoor gossip to influence her against her husband and her home con ditions. She tells too much of her own private affairs. Ordinarily the man does not talk freely, of. his family af fairs with neighbors, but he hears the gossip, resents it, and more trouble results. “One very pronounced cause ot martial touble is the poor health of the wife, and in many cases I find this due to lack of good common sense,” says Miss Mullen. “Many a woman, clamoring for divorce ahd believing divorce to be a panacea for all her troubles, tells me that she does not get up at regular hours, prepares no breakfast for her husband, and eats no suitable food herself. I am not one who believes the human body can per form its work without proper nourish ment at regular intervals. The body is a machine that must have proper care to function properly. Women who fail to prepare good meals for their husbands are slackers, and have no 'just cause for complaining when their husbands seek good flood elsewhere. Too often we find that men use liquor to excess in cases where they do not have good food.” Of the 128 cases which have come before her, Miss Mullen has had only one woman who was an habitual drinker, and she was the mother of six children. This woman’s condition was attributed by her husband to bad com panions. In every case the mother has demanded custody of the children. Miss Mullen finds- that religioius differences make litrtje trouble. “I am convinced that a bit of real religion* would go far to solve their troubles,” she says. “Difference in nationality, however, has caused considerable trouble in married life, especially since the world war,” admits Miss Mullen. “I recall a German husband and an Irish Wife, and other combinations that were equally perplexing.” Miss Mullen is a firm believer in woman’s place in the business World but she speaks in no uncertain terms of the husband who wants his wife to "get to work and support herself,” as some of the men in domestic rela tions court demand of their wives. “Woman’s brain is. just as keen as that of a man, and if a woman wants to work, I think she should, either to support herself or as a means of self expression. I am heartily in favor of business training for woman, not merely as a means to making a living, but for the (wholesome effect it has on the mental outlook and the physical health. Women with definite training are ready, when emergencies arise, to take care of themselves and their de pendent families. This does not sig nify that a man who marries a girl should be a slacker, that he would want his wife to keep on supporting herself. I tell men that they must support their families and give the mother a chance to care for her _-U. _ / children, All cases coming; into our court involve the care of children. “In these days of high priced and many persons out of work, we can help most by referring cases of ill lealth to the Visiting Nurse assoeia ,ion, encourage the husband and wife » keep their little home going, and lave patience with each other, until ;he general business situation is re lieved. We co-operate with oth«r de partments of public welfare to find employment, and generally comfbrt those who seek our advice,” says Miss Mullen.” I* -TOUR-- | ChristmeLS Dinner g When looking over your list for that Christmas Dinner you must remember | that quality must be considered.
