with an attractive woman at pTty.
Mention that he took his secre-
tary to lunch.
A recent national survey showed
that next to arguments over money,
jealousy is the chief source of fric-
ton in the home. At least one out
of five quarrels between married
couples is provoked by jealousy.
And studies also show that jealousy
plays an important role in nearly
half of all divorce cases.
It's worth noting that the reason
Mrs. Jones isn't jealous is that she
realizes that while MIR. Jones may
have a normal male admiration for
pretty face and figure, essentially
he isn't a flirt. She has confidence
in his fidelity.
And there you have that paragon
among females who - according to
the latest statistics - has many of
the qualities the typical male con-
siders desirable in the perfect wife.
Yet the fact remains that, reUark-
able as science is these days, Mrs.
Jones is at best a statistical dream
wife. If it happens that you,' as a
wife. don't duplicate Mrs. Jones in
all her aspects, don't give up. Your
one-and-only is still likely to prefer
an armful of you to a headful of
statistics. The End

call me names when they read this,
but Mrs. Jones is most likely a bru-
nette. Surveys show that only Is
per cent of American men definitely
prefer blondes.
It's been established that good
husbands are often joiners, belong
ing to several social organizations.
Mrs. Jones differs greatly from her
husband in this respect. She is
much less interested in social &C.
tvities among members of her own
sex.
In other words, she's not at all the
clubwoman type, and membership
in a bridge or literary club seems to
satisfy completely her joining in
stincts.
Neat and attractive in her attire,
Mrs. Jones nevertheless doesn't
make a fetish of fashions. True,
she likes to glance through fashion
magazines and often goes window
shopping.
But clothes are not among the
things that she rates of prime i'm
portance in her life.
Above all. she has a naturally
happy disposition. As Professor
Evening star., 1948-12-05

Terman has proved. "A person with
a happy disposition gets along well
with almost anyone; a person with
an unhappy disposition gets along
well with no one."
Ho'0 efectionate is Mrs. Jones?
Mrs. Jones is in love with her
husband and shows it. Men rank
an "affectionate disposition high
on the list of qualities they want in
a wife. But studies reveal that
many women stop playing the game
of love once they have won their
husbands.
Dr.. w. M. Marston, an authority
marriage problems, said: "A study
OF the many marital cases discussed
across my desk during the past ten
years leads to the unavoidable con-
clusion that many marriages are
cherries cold-storage vaults for
once existing affections"
There was a time when wives
were expected to be modest to the
point of prudishness, even with
their husbands. That day is gone.
In the privacy of her home, Mrs.
Jones is no prude with her husband,
and invites his affectionate atten-
tions.
Professor Lewis M. Terman of
Stanford has even gone 50 far as to

ARE YOU THE PERFECT Wife?

only II per cent really wanted the
jobs.
However, there are any number
of talented and ambitious women
who ably mix careers with marriage.
And the average husband, according
to surveys, complains very little be-
cause his wife wants to hold down
job.
On the whole, though. the odds
are heavy that Mrs. Jones. as the
perfect wife, centers her attention
on home and children and leaves the
breadwinning in the hands of her
husband.
What about Mrs. .Jones's con-
duct and appearance?
Mrs. Jones is fairly conservative
in dress and behavior.
But while she is no inveterate
party girl. she thoroughly enjoys a
party. She may smoke and take a
cocktail or two. Less than one Der
cent of husbands polled believe
that it's an important quality in
their wives neither to smoke nor
drink.

H. Morris Alquist, chairman
of the Walla Walla Republican
county committee, met with the
recently organized Young Repub-
ican club of Benton County
Monday night. Alquist, in inform
al discussion, pointed out ways
and means of building the organ

! Invites, attendance was small,
but enthusiasm was not lacking.
Alquist urged that young re-
publicans give time and effort to
the many jobs involved in party
activity and suggested that
wherever possible the younger
men should be appointed to fill
vacancies in precinct committee
man positions.
: He also urged that young Re-
publican women should be invit-
ed to participate in the organiza-
ton and that the group should
be built on countrywide basis.
Election of permanent officers
was postponed to future meet
ing. Temporary Chairman Bob
Matheson will call meeting for

Red Leaves Mean Dry
Ceraniums Says Agent

s Red is a danger signal when 1t
shows up in priced Geranium
pot plants; it means the plants
are being kept too dry, Miss Lor-
eta Cowden, Associate Exten-
sion Agent, advised Benton
County Homemakers yesterday.
Several queries have been re-
ceived in the County Extension
office, Miss Cowden said, about
reddish-looking or brown-edged
Geranium leaves. A check with
%. B. Howell, Extension Specia-
list in Ornamental Horticulture
of tn estate College of Washing
ton, indicates that lack of mois-
ture is the cause.
Howell suggests that plant
owners check the roots of &c.
raniums when leaves show RED
celebration or show signs of burn
ling along the edges. The sol
around the roots is probably dry
When this happens, Towering
will be delayed.
Keep the soil around Geraniun
roots moist, and don't allow The
temperature to go below SIS de
grees, Howell says.
