AMERICAN MEN ARE
HEARTY AND SINCERE

A youthful singer, who recently re-
turned TO this country after a long en-
gagement in London, told her friends.
laughingly. that she was glad to get
home, for the reason that American
men are so hearty and sincere and
the Englishmen one meets in society are
so limp and lackadaisical." While the
singer was saying these things pri-
vately. another American woman, a
writer Of undoubted gifts, was publicly
quoted as rather envying our girls
who marry in England Americans,
she explained, seem to thing Of Moth
ing but making money-although, to be
sure, they are quite willing their wives
should spend il. Englishmen, on the
other hand, are less absorbed I'm busi-
ness. take time to fulfil their social OBJ
legations. and are in a larger meas
ure companions for their wives. one
can see the subject from still another
angle by following the semi-serious
view Of Mr.. Jerome X. Jerome. the
English novelist. Speaking. no. long
ago. at a luncheon given by the So
ciety Of American Women in London.
Mr.. Jerome said he thought the Euro
can man was much more unseliish than
the American. because he gave woman
the opportunity Of cultivating her own
immortal soul by the exercise of the
virtues OF patience. humility endur-
ance. and so on; whereas in America
the man himself developed those graces
and gave woman no chance 10 do so
Thus the American singer and the
English novelist agree that American
men are devoted lovers and husbands
and the novelist intimates that they
carry devotion too far. Perhaps they
do, il as the American writer asserts
they sacrifice companionship to busi-
ness; yet that seems a venial fault
when. as even the critic owns. tho
motive of the man who sticks to his
task is to make the present easy and
the future safe for his wife and fam
