awkward proposals which men are pro-
genuous and artless simplicity of those
offered in the Evening STARS contest
is altogether admirable. Here Is a let
ter containing a good expose of the
subtleties of the leap-year proposal:
To the Leap Year Girl, Evening STAR:
] do not think it quite right for any
young lady to propose to a man and be
In OF course, lots of girls do
it just for the fun of it. If, however,
a girl went with a young man who did
not have the courage to declare his
love, it would be quite right for the
girl to speak to him in a sensible, ro-
mantle way.
For instance:
When you happened TO meet a couple
whom you knew before they were mar
ried say to him, Don't you envy
them?"
He will more than likely ask why.
Then answer, "Well, for one reason,
look nov happy they are. Don't you
think it's real nice to have a home of
you own, someone to care for you sin
cerely. encourage you when you come
home from your hard days toll, share
your troubles, enjoy you pleasures?
Now. don't you think it would be nice
for us?"
He must oe dense if he doesn't "tum-
ble'' to that f. WABB.
