creatures, a domestic tyrant.
"Oh, of course, didn't deliberately go
to work to humble my wife's pride and

that's what it came to in the end, and
now that I've gotten far enough away
from the years of strife and struggle
that composed our married life to get
a clear perspective on them. l don't

girl of today will no more stand for be-
ing made a doormat of. as her mother
did, that the free man will stand for
being kicked around and downtrodden

One OF the most beautiful and hopeful
notices I ever saw was Smile Damn
You, Smile!" which hung in a business
mans office. The man himself was
worth million, but he still smiled, and
the result was that all his employees were
prosperous and happy. Every time he
raised their wages or did something for
their amusement he smiled because he
thought II was such a joke on other rich
men around him who thought they were
getting Just as much out OF their work
men for less money and who were
wrong,
You can always smile II you look at
