Then came the war. Bob's mother was living with them now, herself a fine housewife and devoted grandmother. Betty and old Mrs. Ellis like and understand each other; when Betty had a chance at a good job in a munitions plant it was her handsome, efficient 54-yearold mother-in-law who advised her to take it. Betty made more money than Bob did, from the first. And how she enjoys it! Dressing comfortably in shirts and slacks, her hair cut short, her shoes lowheeled, she goes off gaily in the morning with her lunch box. At noon she and her fellow-workers make themselves a cup of coffee; gradually some of the men have joined them, contributing their own supplies, and now Betty is queen of an adoring circle that meets daily. Betty Enjoys Freedom. . In Betty's case all this has gone to her head. For ten years her interests have been centered in kitchen, babies and husband. Now she is free. Fi*^ morally, for Bob can't check on what she is doing and nobody else has any right to; free financially, for she can spend more money on her clothes nowadays than she used to have for all "household expenses combined. It is Betty's husband who writes me about it. "About four months ago there was a great change in her," says Bob's letter. "All winter long she had been coming home too tired to do more than just kiss me and the children, eat her dinner listening to the rest of us talking, and tumble into bed. But last spring she seemed to come to life. Once or twice she was late; she called it working overtime, but she wasn't at work. She changed her clothes at a friend's apartment and went out to dinner and dance. This happened j three times before I caught on. ! "We'd been putting most of her earnings into bonds, but she stopped that; she had gotten herself a fur coat Tri March. She said it cost two hundred,'but my mother said it was worth at least a thousand. - Bu*. I didn't really suspect anything until I heard that Betty was out dining and dancing, after which ; it took very little evidence to convince me that she had a lover; a rich young fellow some years younger than she, who works In the same plant. When I questioned her, trying not to show her .how insane with nervous anxiety and wretchedness I was, she laughed and kissed me, saying that she was no different i from other women, that X, was soon 1 entering the service, that it was not perious on either side, he not wanting a divorce any more than she did.

An attractive woman of 32, she has found more freedom and profit in her new work than she can handle wisely. With her two children in the care of her mother-in-law, she apparently has been asso~ dating a great deal with other men. One of them •has his own wife and children. Her husband is advised not to divorce her but to try and be forgiving and hope that a return to sanity on the part of hit wife will accompany the close of the war.

"The catastrophic effect of all this upon my home happiness I can leave to your imagination. My wife has always been on a pedestal, to me; she has always seemed the wisest, truest, happiest of women.

My mother will live with us only during the war; when peace returns, she must rejoin her husband in a distant city.

Please advise a heartbroken husband." Unfaithfnl Mate Serious Problem. My dear Bob, thousands of women have written me of your problem in the past 15 years. What to do about the unfaithful mate is a very serious question. I am going to advise you as I almost invariably advise them, hard as this course is to follow. I advise you to treat Betty's temporary departure from decency and common sense as you would a mental illness, with silence, patience, forgiveness and, when you can help! with help. Wars do not last forever; soon there will be three million strong young men back from the battle fronts, looking for work and entitled to find it. Our social situation will, receive a jolt then, will be faced by a predicament that will take ill we have of courage and faith in ourselves to solve. Even with the maintenance of an enormous military force, even with the return of activity and prosperity all along the line, there will be readjustments that will stagger us all. It will especially stagger the money- making, defense-job-filling women. A comparatively small force will keep our armories filled with ammunitions, in peace. The great factories will turn their machinery in a. different direction; the men will swarm in, and the women will come home. And just between ourselves, Bob, thousands of titem wil' be ghid to return. The relationship between you and Betty will never return to it* old confident, loving status. Your hurt pride will never wholly recover. But you won't be the only man and woman who extract considerable satisfaction, comfort, and even companionship out of a life built upon >i;st such wreckage. . Wonder Lake Ev. Luth.
