didn't understand 1t. But It'll
made me feel chilly all over. He
seemed to say that he didn't care
whether or not, he ever was rich
man.
And I positively shiyer 10 think
we may be poor all our days!
o course expect my husband
will some day be a rich man. I've
been poor all my life. I'm tired OF
lit.
We girls used to talk this over
at college. And 1 know that lots Of
girls feel the same as I do. They
agree that girl, after she's mar
ried, mustn't be too easy in her de-
mands on a husband. Not IL she
wants to make anything OF him.
Jeanne Alison used to get per-
fectly furious when we talked so.
you silly tlappers!" she used
to scold. you marry to spend and
spend! And demand and demand!
You want things and things! You
plan to drive your husbands!
Then what? You'll lose 'em! And
you deserve tot"
"But they say that II a wife is
too contented, a husband will
stump! Make a man 100 happy
and he'll slump" So Mary Smith,
at college had said. II think n wife
can help her husband make for
ttune by keeping him on his toes!"
Jeanne asked:
you girls all remember Molly
Gaines?"
We did. Molly Is the shining
mtllionairess among our alumnac.
well, Molly married her chem
istry professor, you know. And
she prides herself on having made
her husband. He was content to
fool around with science, Just as
science, you know. Molly decid-
cd he might as well make a for
tune out OF his knowledge, and not
teach In a minor university all his
life. So she kept at him until he
went into commercial life. Color
was his speciality. He was always
measuring color waves. Now he
makes dyes"
"And q million a yeari"
Eyes! And he used to be the
dearest, sweetest man in the uni
versity. And now he's IN old
grouch!"
Only a few OF us shared Jean
ne's opinion. Most of US believed
that making money is a duty a
man owes his wife. For doesn't
girl, when she marries, surrender
her own chance TO acquire for
tune? Doesn't a man, then, as
sumo a double responsibility, his
own and hers!
So we girls argued in school.
And l never have forgotten the
theory. And long ago I decided
not to let my husband get into
a financial nut.
Naturally, Jack felt from the
first his wife ought to have the
best OF everything. Just as a mat
ter Of personal pride. For ex-
ample, whenever I have mention
ed car, Jack agrees that ought
" nave QuH.
must admit that he never
brings up the question Of car,
but he Is attentive when tell him
about the new models some OF the
other girls have. Jessie Langdon
has new sedan. And her hus-
band is in tho office with Jack. I
suppose things will come our way
some time.
But have q harder problem
than most Of the girls.
.. For II Jack has one single tiny
fault In his character, 1t Is this:
he may be q wee bit too much Of a
reader and a dreamer and chess
player.
He much prefers sitting over a
chess board at some kind Of
chess solitaire to going to the
most brilliant society event OF the
season. And that attitude toward
society and people with money will
not do-if Jack Is to make quick
success.
