Should Married Men Help?

friend OF mine and another chap had a
debate on a subject which really was not
Tor them TO discuss, but for some mar

Men Help Their Wives Wash Dishes and
Clean House?" Now this Is what No.

when first married the husband does
everything to help poor wife, but later
on IN lie when iaid wife becomes more
accustomed to housework II Is entirely
up to her to handle this. II Is her work

at the shop or Office each day. Then
again when hubby comes home from
work don't YOU think. after eating sup
per. he would rather sit in the easy
chair and read his paper and smoke his
pipe than do the dishes, which really
isn't much work for a woman to do yet
would mean a lot to mani"
And so It went on for some tine No.

and saying: "It was up to hubby to do
this work and help wife after supper
