"The Navy told ’em to be good boys and STAY HOME. "But here flnpv arp ” Thus begins a story in the New York World Telegram about the ex-GI’s and sailors f r om such far-away points as Kan _ _J tucky, Oregon and Iowa, West Ruth Millett Virginia and Indiana who made the long trip to New York to be on hand when their foreign-born brides set foot on American soil. “Sure,” went on the story, “they know the services had it all fixed to shepherd the girls and kiddies on special trains right into their lovin’ arms. And they got those notices that read, DON’T COME TO NEW YORK”—but. . . Well, there they were—to shep herd their wives and babies home themselves and it looks as though the ex-servjcemen understand wo men far better than the Army or hfa.vy. Maybe it increases confusion to have the papas taking long train trips and waiting around New York impatiently for their wives to ar rive. Perhaps the efficient way would be for Papa to sit at home in Iowa or Indiana and wait for his wife to make the train trip out to her new home alone. IT’S A BIG MOMENT But Papa looks mighty good to Mama standing right on the dock in New York. After all, it is a big moment in her marriage. It would be an awful let-down to face the moment alone—and lonely. If Papa is there it means he is as excited as she is over this great adventure. It means that though he had to leave her overseas when he was shipped home, now that he is his own man again he doesn’t intend to iet anything to keep them apart. It means he is eager to as sume his responsibility for his family. The Army and Navy may know about efficiency. But husbands who are ignoring that STAY AT HOME advice know women.
