WHAT HE EXPECTED OF WIFE
GIr's Attitude Seems Unreasonable
When These Few Small Things
Wore All He Wanted.

Beauty. Punctuallty. Sweet temper.
Economy. Trust.
And that she should be sound asleep
when he came In.
And that he should not be questioned
regarding the hour when he returned
from poker parties.
Nor that she should make any com.
ments regarding the strangeness OF the
fact that II was necessary to have on
ion sandwiches at poker parties.
And that she should spend such eve
nings as he played poker or stayed
downtown or went to stag dinners with
friends OF the feminine sex.
That she should always understand
that his fllrtutions were too mild for
any uncalled Jealousy on her part.
That It was quite different thing
for a man to be forgiven thnn for a
woman.
And that he wouldn't have his wife
make fool Of him as some wives he
knew made OF their husbands
with these clear understandings at
the start he knew that she would be
very happy with him, for he would

But he had been a little too previ-

Mrs. 7. w. Florence, Treasurer of

wishes to request that all members
arrange to pay their dues to her i'm

from this chapter have to be sent to

for the members to neglect this mat
ter. The general dues are based on
the total membership, therefore Mrs.
Florence urges the necessity for all
members whether active or inactive
to respond to this appeal.
