From the time she Is old

girl begins to concentrate on the
idea of love and marriage; and,
by the time she reaches the altar,
she knows as much about them
as q postgraduate. Its the
MEN, to whom love is foreign
language and marriage just an
incident-or an accident.
It's Certified, grade A-bride-
grooms" that the world needs
not certified brides" It's the
Barytone Sex, that needs road
map to real love and a line OF
guide. posts to domestic happiness.
But, where oh where, would
any mans college find pro-
lessor qualified to teach the Inn

the pitfalls of petting parties.

How. to know WHAT he want

persistency in the matter those who
are engineering this land grab are

some lucrative pickings connected
