Caroline ChatSays ? iiiM?yiMMiiii i ? xi^SSSSSSS riai?555i Vast majority of business women arc at their <lesks for business. The last thing they want is to be the cause of domestic trouble between employer and his wife. A middle-aged wife is all het up over the subject of the competition which the office wife gives the home wife. It isn't surprising that ! she's in a vicious mcod. Her husband recently 'in a fit of temper) told her that if she did her home job half as well as his secretary did the office job they would be sitting pretty in a well-furnished j home that was all paid for: whereas they were straining to keep up j interest on a sizeable mortgage. Insults hurled by husbands and wives | at each other when they are mad don't usually have much basis in fact but just as inklings of deep truth drip from inebriated lips so in temper a person frequently drcps a hint that gives food for thought. Isn't it contemptible for a man to whale his wife over the head with another woman, be she secretary or siren? He married his wife fcr love, ostensibly. He employed the secretary because she could write sixty words to the minute and spell them correctly. She's got to come through and well she knows it. Furthermore, she's got to be prompt, pleasant and present a good appearance, do a bang-up job of housekeeping. When she falls down on her job he gives her a warning or two and if she doesn't heed them he passes her up for somebody more competent or more con scientious. That she makes competition for the home wife isn't her fault ex cept in the rare instance where she goes gunning for the boss. Cer tainly in the matter of finances the office wife and the home wife have teetotally different propositions to deal with. While the home wife has her allowance to spend or waste according to her judgment, the secretary enters monies coming in and going out on a ledger. If the income and the outgo balance it is a tribute to the boss' economy and good judgment, net hers. And if he had taken as much pains to train his wife in these matters, she too might be able to beast a balanced budget. The truth is that secretaries arc generally more sinned against than sinning. The vast majority of them are at their desks for business. They turn off their work efficiently as they can because they are dependent on the pay. A good proportion of them are contributing to the support of relatives: maintaining homes for widowed mothers, paying tuition for young brothers and sisters, buying furbelows for nieces and nephews, carrying insurance poli cies to protect the future for themselves and dependents. The last thing they want to do is to make domestic trouble for their employers. So it happens that a wife whose husband is throwing up to her , the efficiency and competency of his secretary had better get down to business, make out a budget, have her husband approve it. ask him to coach her in putting it into practical use, avoid arguments and discussions that bring on tempers and talk. Of course, she could remind him that the office wife doesn't have to darn his socks, cater to his appetite, hear him snore or entreat him to be nice to her fam ily. But that would only bring on more talk and mere hard feeling. She'd much better let the subject drop.?CAROLINE CIIATFIELD. Bad Roads Don't Stop Pasquotank School Buses I Schools Operating and At tendance Holding Up, j Reports Jennings Despite the adversities of the i weather and the muddy condition of the secondary roads of the i county, school bus service in Pas- [ outank County has not yet been ! disrupted, it was stated yesterday I by County Superintendent M. P. \ Jennings. While the rural schools of num erous North Carolina counties have been compelled to close this month because of the inability of the school buses to negotiate the muddy roads, the three consolidat- | ed schools in rural Pasquotank ! not on'y have continued to operate i but are maintaining almost nor mal attendance, according to Superintendent Jennings. Th2 buses in this county are not tra velling the entire length of their regular routes at present, but they j are managing to get within a mile or less of the homes of every stu- J dent in the county. Several parti cularly bad pieces of read have | been eliminated from the bus i routes for the time being, but most j of the children living on these stretches of road are either walk- ' ing to the nearest bus stop or are being hauled there in horse-drawn vehicles.

I new kissing technique in ? hollywood No More Lip-to-I 'P Siuee Influenza Germs Have Arrived I Jtv HENRY SUTHERLAND UP Hollywood Correspondent HolL wood, Jan. 24. ? ? Lip-to-lip 11 lm kisslngs b> t??" poraiily outlawed cn the Metro Gcldwyn-Mayer lot. 'flu-fearing production geniuses having or dered players to turn a cheek and fake it. , So far as this column knows its the first time Hollywood ever risk- j cd taking the steam cut of love scenes for the sake of hygiene. Production department was ad- j vised to eschew luscious osculations j by Lr. H. E. Anderson, studio phy- j sician, who said kissing on and off the screen is probably respon sible in large part for epidemic spread of influenza through the film colcny. The alternative, lie warned, was to kiss with care or risk large cash losses through illness of stars and consequent production delay. Result is Bob Montgomery, the correspondent school farmer, veem from the line at last minute and busses Joan Crawford somewhere to the sou' sou'west of her Grecian nose rather than cn the glowing but dangerous lips. Edmund Lowe and Madge Evans are wearing 'flu masks between takes and sparring in the clinches like a couple of boxers. Alan j Jones and Maureen O'Sullivan haven't quite reached that stage, but are taking no chances. Jean Harlow and Robert Tay lor were through trading chaste salutes before the anti-lip ukase was published, which seems just as well. We'd hate to think cf a guy kissing Harlow, then dashing off stage for a mouth wash. And that's no joke either, for Nurse Peggy Coleman gallops from 1 stage to stage day-long with ato-1 mizer and swabs, spraying and dabbing expensive throats between kisses. _0? Producer Jack Cummings is j hunting a dancing horse to do a tap routine with Eleanor Powell in "Broadway Melcdy of 1937." which seems fair enough. Prac- j tically everyone in the cast is set j to dance with Eleanor, including George Murphy and Robert Taylor. | Cummings might do worse than compromise for that trick mule | that makes the rodeo circuit. j _ O?
