Post-War Jobs For Wives
Will Boost Divorce Rates
Servicemen's wives with war
time jobs were advised today by
Dr. Macklin E. John, professor of
rural sociology at the College to
consider homemaking a fulltime
job when their husbands return
.—or face the prospect of a bro
ken home.
"Fulltime interests outside the
home," he said, "unquestionably
lessen interest in the home. Wo
men who work destroy the sat
isfaction to be gained from home
making both for their husbands
and for themselves," the sociol
ogist added.
Because no woman can do two
jobs as well as one, many chil
dren—and husbands, too—will
show the effects of wartime ne
glect, he said. Divorce rates, he
warned, are higher in marriages
where the woman is employed
outside the home.
While women should consider
homes and families their primary
responsibility, they should not
completely abandon outside in-
IWA, IMA Combine Forces;
Sponsor Dungaree Dance
IWA and IMA are combining
their forces to sponsor the "Dun
garee Dance" in the Armory, 8:30
p. m. Saturday July 29. Slacks,
dungarees, fatigue clothes, and
cotton dresses will be the prefer
red costume for the barn dance.
For the admission fee of $.25
per person, students may dance
both square and round dances to
suitable tunes played on a juke
box. Men and women may come
either stag or with dates.
Social chairman, Robert Bare_
foot and Virginia Biernes, are ar
ranging for the music and decora
ti"ns. The group is planning •do
nuts and cokes as refreshments.
Remember the servicemen with a subscription to the COLLEGIAN. No matter where
he is hell want to keep in touch with Penn State, and there is no better way than
through the COLLEGIAN. Stop at Student Union or'the COLLEGIAN office today and
zet his subscription.
The Collegian
terests, Dr. John advised.
Supplementing family life with
participation in community af
fairs, he continued, will make
the wife a better marriage part
ner, because she will be more
understanding of her husband's
problems, a better conversation
alist, and more broad-minded.
Community and social .organi
zaticms must prepare now, Dr.
John added, to meet the tremend
ous problem of postwar social
readjustment. He suggests estab
lishment of counseling centers,
where returning veterans may
discuss their vocational and per
sonal problems.
