ISM That Just
Typical Of Man?
BY ED CREAGH

QUESTION:: How can I talk my
wife out of buying 1ur coat?-
ANXIOUS.
ANSWER: Son, here are the tried
the sorely tried arguments, odt
you may as well dig down now.
l. Cant afford it. This is a
pure Formally, for the wife will
recount her recent economies; fact
that she hasn't had stitch s'nce
Pearl Harbor; crushing fact that
neighbor, whom you've always re-
garded as a prize dope, is buying
his wife a fur. coat, so a man as
smart as you -
2. Think of all the poor little
animals whose lives would be
snuffed out" etc. Tart response:
"Of course, if muskrat is more
important than your own wife" y
Also: In that case, perhaps you
don't want steak after all toInor-
row night
3. Looks Like a warm winter. ?"
Counterattack: "You didn't seem
to think so when you had that argu-
ment with the ration board about
your fuel oil coupons
But you look SO smart in a
cloth coat" That didn't stop you
from having a long conversation
with some blonde in fur coat al
the railroad station. Oh, I heard
about it, you WOLF
5. wait until the tax goes down.
Does that mean you aren't buying
any more bottled goods for the
duration? By the way, what was the
amusement tax when you entertain
ed you old school chums at thu
Clip Club the other night"
The answer to your question, An
xious, is that you can't talk you
wife out of a fur coat. But keeI
trying, for the sake of male soil
darity' And wire, collect, if 20,
happen on the right answer.

Here s Chance
For Landlord
To Win Friend
By RUTH MILLETT

A Chicago paper recently car
ried the advertisement of man
who wanted to share his subur-
ban home with a couple. Require
ments were that the couple must
"smoke, drink, and dance"
Maybe the man just had enough
literary ambition to want to write
a different kind of for rent adj
vertisement. Or maybe he W a S
fed up with the SNUG, self-satisfied
sounding petitions of many of the
people looking for rooms, houses
or apartments today.
You know the type I mean.
Permanent civilian couple en-
ployed and with best of references
desires apartment or house. No
children. No drinking or smoking"
HEARrENING AID
Those "See what nice people we
are advertisements are enough to
get anybody down who ever had
the audacity to give up a good job
for the amy. or who can't see that
it's any of a landlords business
whether tenant smokes and
drinks, or who thinks renters have
as much right as home owners to
have children.
If that is the case, the adver
tisement is heartening. Now if we
could just come across one worded
someth ng like this, our faith in
landlords m g h be restored:
"AparJn+nt to rent. Will be let to
family contributing most to war ef-
fort. In case of tie between two or
more would be renters, consid-
Grafton will given to family's
need of apartment, with children
weighing heavily in petitioners IA
vor.''
If you ever happen to see an
adve. tisement expressing t h e
sentiments, please let me know.
