RUTH MILLETT Be Sure That Husband Shares Interest in Your First Home Memo to June Get your husband interested In the home you share, even if it is just a tiny apartment, if you want him to take as much pride in your home as you do.

It may be a temptation to go ahead and furnish your home exactly to suit yourself and then sit back and bask in your new husband's approval of what you have accomplished all by yourself. But your home will belong more to the two of you if you get your husband interested in helping you make selections, decide on color schemes, and so forth. After all, when you start showing your house or apartment to your friends, you want your husband to feel the same sense of pride and accomplishment in it that you do. And he can't do that unless he has some part in the planning of it. MAKES HOME A PARTNERSHIP AFFAIR The wife who can, when she takes guests through her home, say "This was Bill's idea" or "Bill refinished this chest himself" or "Bill and I both like modern" makes a home seem much more like a mutual accomplishment than the wife who takei all the credit for.

everything that has been done. Furthermore, a man really a right to have his home express something of himself. The big, strong type of man whose frilly- minded wife decorates their home to suit her personality certainly isn't giving her. husband the kind of background he would choose for yet that is the background he has to live with. So get your new husband interested in helping you plan your home and don't veto every suggestion he makes that isn't exactly what you would have chosen.

It only takes a few such vetoes to get a man to the point where he bows out with, guess you know more about these things than I do; so you go ahead and do whatever you like."
