What's Your Problem?
By JOSH PERKINS Syndicated By Perkins Enterprises Hampstead, Vermont. Dear Uncle Josh, "My husband is what I call a 'roarer.' He feels that the best way to win a family argu- ment is by ranting and rav- ing. This puts the children in tears and has completely unnerved me. What can I do about this problem? Troubled. Dear Troubled, I have always been a great admirer of Mahatma Gandhi, and I believe his great principle can be applied to both large and small problems. I speak, of course, of pass- ive resistance. Here is how it can be applied to your situa- tion. Some evening after dinner when you are all together have the family don loin clothes. (Female members of the family should, of course, wear saris. Then start a family argument. As soon as your husband starts to rave in his customary fashion have all the children throw themselves upon the floor, staring at him with cow- ed expressions. This demonstration, as it did the British, will so surprise your husband that he can not help but get a point so dramatically illustrated. This is how cottage industries began in India. Uncle Josh. Dear Uncle Josh, When I was only a girl I married a man I thought was my ideal, instead he has turned out to be a hard-drinking brute. My dream has turned to ashes. I am what is known as a feminine type woman. "All chintz and crinoline," my mother lsed to say about the little home I made after the marriage I entered into with so much hope. Now that home is like the corner bar, all full of bottle caps, beer cans and cigar smoke. I wanted tulips in the window and love in our hearts, but instead this is what I have. Thank God there are no children. Mother has been a mainstay to me. Desperate. Dear Desperate, Try being a pal to your hus- band. Hunt and fish with him. Tramp through the woods. You may be smothering him with your sweetness and femininity. Go to the corner bar with him and let him suffer the shock of seeing your gentle self framed against the low company of which he is so fond. If you really want to destroy his illus- ion of you, smoke a cigar in the living room. Many women have. You've seen their pic- tures in the newspapers. Fight fire with fire. He'll come around. Uncle Josh. Men of the desert Tuareg tribe in Algeria wear blue-black veils across their faces, the Na- tional Geographic Magazine says. Though nominally Mos- lem, the tribe's women go un- veiled.
