...Scab" is a nasty word. In reading your article [p. 11, TIME. Aug. 6] which describes the Chicago Stock Yards strike where 75,000 starving and thirsty cattle from the drought areas were left to suffer without water by the striking livestock handlers, I was surprised, pained and grieved to find TIME describing as "scabs" these "boys from droughty farms...
...interesting to note in this same article that "the Government dared not hire men to care for its 50,000 head for fear of being accused of strike-breaking."

Thereafter the man becomes irritable, restless and drowsy...
...make just one exception. The only wife who makes more trouble than a college woman is a wife who has gone to a girls' school. A college woman is too ambitious, too full of ideals for any man to get along with. The girls' school wives suffer from the spinsterial environment in which they live during impressionable years. Don't make the mistake of treating your wife like a pal. Treat her like a woman." Such advice was given the Western Psychological Association at Berkeley, Calif, by a member of the Los Angeles Institute of Family Relations...
