Show The Ide?.l Motfcrr. The comfortable woman is the ideal mother. She has no nerves to be racked by the sound of laughing little voices and stamping little feet through the halls. She is never tco busy to listen lis-ten to childish stories, and knows just how to sympathize, instead of condemn when Tom comes home with a black eye that he got whipping that bully Jack Jones, because he was torturing a sick kitten. You never hear of her children begging to go over to Mrs., Smith's to play because "we always have such good times there." Instead her back yard is the rallypoint for the neighborhood, and if sometimes she Is oppressed by it a little she smiles, thinking that at least she knows what her children are doing when they are cut of school. , |
