Marge Datz gave the county report and asked the members to keep the following dates in mind: Girls' State Tea at Only existing Q. My wife walked out on me claiming extreme cruelty. I have not physically struck the woman. We have had the usual arguments between husband and wife but nothing that serious. She treats me like an ogre or monster and tells her relations that I am crazy. They treat me like an outcast.I still love the woman, but I don't know what to do. My life has lost its purpose. I'm only existing from day to day. I don't drink or run around. Is there some answer for me? A. Extreme cruelty could mean mental mistreatment. In fact, that can oftentimes be worse than physical violence. The first thing to do is to ask yourself whether you did mistreat your wife by your attitude. If so, correct that attitude; then tell her that you are sorry, that you love her and you would like to demonstrate to her that your life together can be a happy one.

How can we induce the most sensitive, arrogant, meddling, critical mother-in-law that ever existed to get some mental treatment? Not only is she driving me wild, she also abuses her son (my husband) comething awful. Our doctor suggested she get mental help, and she almost attacked the poor man. She insists that we are the ones who are crazy. She is a healthy sixty-year-old but insists it is our place to take care of her. We are at our wits' end, thinking of having to commit her to a mental institution. A. A healthy'sixty-year-old mother-in-law is way beyond her rights in insisting that you and your husband have to take care of her. This is no longer a man's world, but a woman's world as well. Tell her to get out and go to work. And mean it. If she is a mental case, then you will have to stand up to that and handle it under a doctor's direction, and perhaps that of a lawyer also. Don't let her push you around. Mom won't trust her Q. My mom backed down on her word. She said I could date when I was fifteen. Now she says I can't date until sixteen. My sister dropped school and got married, and now she is expecting a child. She is seventeen. My other sister is sixteen, not married, but expecting. Now mom won't trust me. I am fourteen years old, and I think I should be able to date when I am fifteen. What do you think? A. Put yourself in your mother's place. One sister certainly didn't live up to her expectations. The other sister at least got married, but had little education as a result. You see, your mother has had a rough- time of it with her daughters, and she probably wonders what you are now going to come up with. So be understanding of your mother and show her that she can trust you, that you are going to be different. And then remember this~be trustworthy.
