Dear Cynthta--To settle contro-

ethical column" what qualifications n
young man should have tc make model
husband? THOMAS A.
As nearly every woman has a differ
ent ideal for the model husband, II
would be difficult to settle the contro-
versy. The general qualifications on
which all would agree are usually that
he remain the lover after marriage, that
he be upright. honorable, straightfor-
ward, kind, generous, that he talk over
his affairs and expenses with her and
financial status. That he give her rea.
sonable allowance for housekeeping and
personal wants. And there are lots of
other qualihcatlons--a sense of humor
among them. Cynthia invites the read
ers TO write In what their ideas of a
model husband would be.
