MONDAY. OCTOBER 4. 1020. PAGE TWO PLATTSMOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL 'INDEPENDENT WIFE' TELLS HOW TO DO IT Discusses Recent Letter in Journal by "A Neglected Wife" and Gives a Line on Naughty Men The Journal has received a num ber of communications from parties who have given their opinions as to the question raised in a recent com munication in this paper from "a neglected wife" and in which the question of whether or not' the neg lect of the htisbands was the cause of so many of the wives going wrong. As we are not capable through ex perience, to judge of whether or not this is the cause, having no neglect ed wives hanging around or having assisted any in going wrong, we leave it to the readers to make the decision and several interesting let ters on this subject have been re "independent wife" who deals the naughty husband some jolts below the belt. The letter is as follows: Editor of the Journal: "In reply to the query as to "why do fo many married women go wrong," will say that if there is one answer to this there are a dozen and all different. A husband is sometimes neglectful because he has some other man's wife to think about, and he doesn't care for his own wife. He may be too much of a business man to be home much, and on the other hand he may be out dining with some one else. Act as if you do not care to go with him. perhaps he may change his ways. Do not think too badly of your husband. He may care for you more than you think. Io all you can for your husband to make him happy and keep the home clean. Perhaps you are too good to your husband and allow him too many privileges. Yes. indeed. I am one who says that a wife has as much to say about the h'isiness dealings of the family as a man. I believe in nothing but a fifty-fifty proposition as to the home." But I do not believe in the woman wearing the overalls. That means I do not believe in the woman being boss. Most certainly a woman should know her husband s business affairs of she i.s helping make the liv inir. and 1 call it helping if she is the wife. Some men have no thought as to their wife's pleasure, thinking only nf their own and I say this without any desire of being called a man hat er. These are part of the reasons that leads to the wives going wrong if they do according to my view of the conditions. My advke to the wife is to con tinue to be a good wife aad raise the family right and there will be nothing to regret. Be good to the husband and give him no reason for faithlessness. If he continues to be neglectful get up courage and tell him to go one way and you go the other. Don't worry about him." NTEREST IN BOX ING IS GROWING Fast Four Round Go Tonight at the Legion's Smoker and Lunch eon at Coates Hall.
