Their respective mothers are first cousins And Mabel wants to get married soon What advice do you think should be given to her? The state laws against marriage of! first cousins are not concerned primarily with this blood kinship but are directed at another hidden factor What is it? Dear Dorothy Dix— The young faago ther who wrote yow not long him about his wife not permitting to discipline his son is a pitiable figure the more so since it is his own fault He lost his position as head CASE Xtl34: Mabel Z aged 23 is in love with her second cousin “We want to get married next month” she began our interview but my mother thinks it isn’t wise since we are related” “She and my sweetheart’s moth-- 1 er are first cousins That makes us second cousins doesn’t it Dr his home own j through his weakness right at the start of his married life If ( - ' ’ he had then firm ly assumed his rightful place he would not face this trouble now However the past is past and he has only two courses of action left to him now He can either meekly sit back and watch his son’s life being ruined or he can take back by force his place as head of his home Here is one method which though drastic has the advantage Of surprise and speed of action The next time his son needs to be pun-- ished let the father do it He may have to lock himself and the boy in a room to keep the child’s mother from interfering Then if she raises hell as she probably will let him take her across his knee and use the same strap on her until she is thoroughly mastered and no longer fighting Then and this is most important let her husband take her in his arms no matter what she says or does until she has cried out her shame and pain and humiliation and when she can listen to reason let him tell her how much he realty loves her and that he has been driven to take this course ip order to save their home their marriage and their child all of which are beings ruined by her folly If she doesn’t love him it will probably In that case he mean divorce should- - fight for custody of the child and try to save him from his ’mother “ These suggestions are not theory They are the result o experience for I was one of the fool mothers who was ruining her child but who was saved by her husband who had the courage to teach her her error by force when she refused to learn the kind way A WOMAN WHO KNOWS Answer: I publish this letter in full in the hope that it will brace up some weak father who sees his chidren being ruined by their fond and brainless mother into at7 least making some effort to save them from her before it i3 too late In all the world there is) nothing else so strange as that men who are brave enough to meet the other trials of life without flinching and wise enough to deal intelligently with the other problems of existence turn into cowards and quitters before a silly' woman’s tears and hysterics and do not even make a fight to preserve their own personal liberty nor to protect the children they have brought into the world Life Disciplines With a Hard Hand There is hardly a mail that does not bring me a letter from some desperate man telling me that his wife is spoiling their children rotten that she is letting them grow up without morals or manners that she indulges their every whim and lets them do just aS they please He can foresee the hoodlums these brattish children are going to groV up to be the wrecks and failures i Si Crane?
