Kathleen Norrrs Says: The Governess Wife *?11 aro41c?u.?WKU rutura. 1 "I *sk*d to to* hit tbtckbook lb* *tb*r isy *md lb* young m*? bsd to ixpLmm guilt o }tw dotoils to mt." t By KATHLEEN NORRIS DON'T marry a man with the idea that it will be easy to change him. It never works; they don't change, rhey may develop qualities and tastes that surprise you ?you may find the man you thought a stay-at-home likes to go out ev ery night, or that the man you thought a night club favorite never wants to leave his own Hreside. Such surprises as that are the very commonplaces of marriage. But not changes. The Jealous sweetheart will continue to be Jeal ous, the lazy man who is always changing jobs will go on shifting, the tad who drinks too much and gam bles away his money will go right on drinking and gambling. The other day I had a talk with a bride-to-be. It struck me as ex tremely ominous, and I've been won iering ever since if the promised busband has any idea of the train ing in store for him. All the condi tions of their marriage seem to be ideal, good social standing, old fam ily friendships, comfortable income ind a most attractive apartment ready and waiting. But the bride's ittitude is not so promising. She was buying gloves, with one of her bridesmaids as companion, and chattered quite freely of her plans. Tom, it seems, has to make busi ness trips to New York now and then and likes to make them by plane, but Sharon has stopped that. "I'm deathly afraid of planes," she explained, "and I put my foot lown." 'Don't Let Precedents Start.' It also appeared that she had been quite frank about Tom's mother, fom wanted to stop off at Santa Barbara and see his mother, on his honeymoon trip to Mexico; Sharon said no. "Once you start that sort Df thing it establishes a precedent," she told me. Duck shooting was men tioned; Tom is a famous shot. "I think that young man's duck hunt ing days are over," Sharon mur mured confidently, eyeing a beauti ?-l -I L L. itf-.J 1 I lui riuvc uii ucr ucauviiui uauu. "He's going to be the best trained husband in town," she said happily. "His friends won't know him. I asked to see his checkbook the other day, and the young man had to explain quite a few details to me. Don't you think," she ap pealed to me, "that the time to train them is in the very begin ning?" I was too stunned to reply. If she had been talking of an airdalc pup py it might have been intelligible, but Tom ii six feet of husky, vital, assertive human being, with a One mind, a fine education and a fine war record. She paid for her gloves and went her happy way, and I went mine with a feeling of intense pity for Tom. There are ways, of course, in whioh wives can exert influence; the little ways of neatness and consider ation and promptness and thrift. But those occasions when suggestions sre in order come only now and then, and should be handled na turally. with affection and tact. Men change, and women do too. In a happy marriage, but they change without knowing it, the miracle of growing trust and companionship and improvement is never visible, and certainly never cut-and-dried before ever the marriage takes plsce. So I have great fears for the mar riage of Sharon and Tom, and feel reasonably sure that he will grow MAKING HIM OVER Women have tried many, many times to reform tbeir husbands, to "make them over," but it has rarely been successful. Men cling stubbornly to their ways, resistant to appeals assd pressures. This is especially true in regards to per tonal habits, likes assd dislikes. Sometimes, where a man realizes in bis heart that he is at fault, he will, with bis wife's aid, struggle to change bis ways. When he is convittced that he is right, bow ever, be will seldom yield, at least' not permanently. Miss Norris in today's article tells about a bride who is starting off wrong and is heading for trouble. She is quite attractive and isstelligent, but she is not keen enough to realize that try ing to make over a big, success fssl, well-educated young man is fatal to happy married life. She doesn't want him to travel by air, or go bursting, or visit bis mother in California, and that's fust a start; she intends to "train" bim in her ways of thinking assd acting. Sooner or later Tom is going to rebel and be is going to tell Sharon blusstly that be in tends to have bis own way in per sonal matters. Sharon may bristle uff and the quarrel that leads to the divorce court will have be gun. If she has learned anything of human nature by that time, however, she will give up trying to change her husbassd. restless under this organized con trol, and break away from her. No girl should marry a man unless she likes him as he is. Sharon ap parently likes Tom only for certain possibilities she sees in him, and if Tom ever suspects that he has married a governess and trainer rather than a wife, he will be in furiated. Tactful Handling. Sometimes after years of mar riage this sense of smug superior ity breaks out in a wife. "Why not have that gray paper in the halls?" the husband suggests. "Because it would be perfectly ridiculous, dear," says the wife. "Why would it be ridiculous? Wasn't our old room at home that way?" "Our old room was simply hideous," the wife returned smoothly, "and ev eryone knows you have no taike, darling." One wife I know merely smiles and listens when her husband holds forth at breakfast about something he likes or doesn't like in domes tic matters. She smiles, listens with faintly raised eyebrows, and very slightly shakes her head, for the benefit of her daughters. "Just as soon as he goes," her expression tells them, "we'll fix it all our way." Very few men, no matter how abrupt or absent-minded or ab sorbed. treat their wives to this sort of arrogant rudeness. Instead there appears to be a general im pression that Mommy does know best about things. So some of them alienate their own families, give up old friends and comfortable habits, pay uncomplainingly for furniture and wallpaper they don't really like, for ' long years and years. But there comes a breaking point, and wives might as well be on the watch not to reach it. To try to change a man is usually to lose him entirely.

How * wiling windows lend distinction to the modern home is shown in this attractive example of the modern home. Originally favored in the South, use of awning windows has spread rapidly to all parts of the country. Interior views of the modern home, as shown above, are part of display of the Association of Home Bnilders exposition at Chicago. Prospective homeowners are demanding cabinet showers in the house of tomorrow for today. 1 LARGEST IRRIGATION DEVELOPMENT . . . Columbia Basin project in Eastern Washington is taking shape. This is an artist's impression of how some of the structures in the vicinity of Coulee City will appear when completed. Stretching for nearly two miles across the famed Upper Grand Coulee is the Sooth Coulee dam, which will help form a 27-mile reservoir for the million-acre irrigation development. The dam will car ry U. 8. Highway 10-A across its top. The land will be farmed by 12,000 to 15,000 families, veterans and others. > I SAVES SISTER . . . Running out of her borne in Orange, N.
