The study revealed that: American women want com panionship from their husbands even more than they want love or money. Children, far from bringing married couples closer together, are the major cause of a loss of satis faction in each other's companion ship and love. Nearly all wives, including those without children, become increas ingly less satisfied with their hus hands' companionship, a decline that researchers describe as "cor rosive. Under the direction of Drs. Robert 0. Blood and Donald M. Wolfe, researchers interviewed more than 900 American wives in a cross-section sample of an entire community, and their findings con trIdict many popular beliefs. According to the Mfichigan re port, for example, the domination of the male by American women has been greatly exaggerated. The control exercised at home by hus bands or wives depends less on their sex than on their personal comj)etence, and the balance of power is still held by a majority of husbands. White-collar men possess more authority at home than working (lass men, and suburban husbands have more authority than city husbands. In probing the strengths and wveaknesses in American marriage today, the NMichigan study reveals that "in the first two years, 52 per cent of the wives are very well satisfied with their marriages, and none notably dissatisfied." "Twenty years later, only six per cent are still very satisfied, while 21 per cent are conspicuously dis satisfied." Even though the course of mar ried love runs downhill for many years, however, the Michigan sur vey points out, "the degree of re covery after the children leave home is surprising." larriage remains a healthy in stitution and, researchers agree. there seems little evidence that it i on the verge of collapse. ,'S CORNELL tMACY ell Arms :HOOL SUPPLIES EODA FOUNTAIN bon soir, bon ami and Vaseline' Hair Tonic places oil that water -esulting from dIrying icohol tonics.

Proving the old saying that "once the ink gets into your system," I'm still at my desk today buried even deeper in the tenseness and excitement of newspaper work. I began as the editor of the "Lake City News," which was owned and published by the late L. H. Cromer, I remained in that Mrs. A. M. Parker position several years. In 19-41 1 purchased the Lake City paper from Mr. Cromer and with fear and trembling, set out on my own as publisher-editor.

Lake City, one of the fast grow ing tobacco markets in the state, has a population of 8,000 today.
