Bureau Oilers Lists Rules Guaranteed To Fit Mothers-in-Law - The Newark bureau has heard N.J. NEWARK, Family service that believe it or not some people werent on pleasant enough terms with their mothers-in-lato send them sincere best wishes a few weeks ago, on Mothers day. The bureau wants to correct that I Mountain pass (India) 5 Line of situation. In the apparent belief that with an eye to next Mothers day you cant begin improving mother-i- n law relations too early, the bureau is distributing a few suggestions. It says that if you want all, to be well with your spouses mother by next May, then start trying right now not to: Live under the same roof with your mates parents. Make a habit of borrowing money from them. Ask your mother-in-lato look after your children every time you want to step out. Ask your spouses mom for sympathy and advice too often. (This, says the bureau, very often leads to family quarrels.) Whats more, do not get excited if mother-in-laoccaslonaly buys junior an expensive toy or special treat that perhaps you wouldnt 6pend the money for. (Here the emphasis should be on the word and occasional, grandma shouldnt be allowed to break the important rules of behavior youre trying to make junior obey.) Lastly, says the bureau, dont wait for Mothers day to show your J!T&ther-in-law you appreciate her mfcmy generosities. There is, incidentally, no truth to those stories about mothers-in-labeing such a domineering lot. According to Edward L. Parker, executive director of the bureau, if the stories were true, mothers-in-la- w would have organized a rebellion long ago against the mental abuse to which they have been subjected over the years. Parker added dolefully that should all the bureaus suggestions go for naught and you continue to have mother-in-latrouble, his bureau will continue to be open for arbitration purposes as.usuaL w w w . w 1 marries Method of learning 10 Otherwise.
