we 70 around constantly

time we are two months old we
are forever conditioning our
selves. It's q terrible thought!
why do gentlemen prefer
blondes, for instance? Because.
when they were little boys, all
the angels on the Christmas
cards were blondes and all the
princesses in the fairy tales had
long golden hair. And all the
wicked sisters and witches
and 'temptresses had raven
locks.
They may discover in later life
that most Of the gold-diggers ana
baby.varnps and chorus beauties
are blondes either by birth or BY
preference. They may even
marry brunettes! But still, every
one Of them feels that he must
have a blonde in his life! a
