If you want to keep your
husband healthy, keep him
busy around the house. It's
a good argument for getting
household chores done. and
you can back it up with med
ical statistics. if he insists.
You should not suggest too
many jobs at one time. One
chore is Saturday par. If
you suggest one, you can
probably get it done without
too much mental anguish.
Too many jobs on the
agenda could make him
brood until he is exhausted
thinking about it.
Small jobs like window
pane repair, wall or ceiling
repairs are made easier for
the man if you'll purchase
the materials and tools for
the chore. The changing Of
a washer is a small job when
he doesn't have to worry
about going to the hardware
store for it. Ditto the broken
window pane. if you'll get
the glass from the glazier,
and put the putty and putty
knife in his hand.
A good weekend project
Is q laundry storage wall.
The washing machine area
can be closed off from the
rest of the kitchen by room
divider or set up in a hall
area that has enough light.
It can be built of hardwood,
plywood or tongue and groove
lumber.
Open shelves can be put
above the washing machine
on which to stack the folded
laundry, so that it can be
transferred all at once to the
ironing area. After side en-
closures are built of the de-
sired wood, louvred or other

Right Grip for Paint Brush

The best way to hold a
paint brush for maximum
control and minimum fatigue
is to grip the metal ferrule
and wide part Of the handle
lightly with your finger tips.
The handle rests between
thumb and foreflnger.

You may think of any
number of projects to keep

point is to avoid overwhelm-

But when painting over
head, it's best to grip the
brush firmly by wrapping
your hand around the han
die, placing the thumb firm
ly on the inside curve where
it enters the metal.

MODERN
MANNERS
All Those Wedding Invitations
Require Correct Answers
By CAROLYN HAeNER SHAW

the replies to wedding invi-
tations that had been sent
out by a friend of mine for
the marriage of her daughter.
Upon checking over the
acknowledgements I came
across many that were in
the worst taste possible. Those
who use the following meth
DDS are either ignorant or
just don't care! Frankly in
many instances in the case
of which I speak. I am afraid
it was the latter, for they
should have known better.
Never, under any circum-
stances, write your reply on
a typewriter. 1t is obligatory
that it be handwritten. Do
not use the small, informal
follower cards that are used
so often for informal invita-
tions. Even more out of place
is to Scribble q yes" or mo"
on your visiting card. This
is really beyond the pale!
Don't write your acknowl-
edgement on Q violent hued
stationery. Only white, fine
grade paper is considered ap-
propriate when replying to
the formal wedding recep-
Evening star., 1960-05-22

When a family issues we'd
ding invitations. they en-
deavor to follow the age-old
traditions that have come
down through the years.
Why is it then that those
who receive the invitations
make no effort whatsoever
to follow correct form when
they answer them? This
time of year hardly a day
goes by that a wedding invi-
tation is not received. How
do you answer it?
Do you remember that If
asked to the church services
only, no reply is expected?
If invited to the reception
afterwards, then an acknowl-
edgement should be made i'm
mediately. Upon replying you
accept, or regret, for the re-
ception only, just as you
would for any other recep-
tion. Only the names Of
those issuing the invitation
should be mentioned. Neuer
include the names of the fu-
ture bride and bridegroom.
My reason for bringing up
this subject again is that I
was appalled, when I had oc-
casion last week to go over

know what to do If this

MISS P. w. 3.
Answer-My advice, If your
escort has not arrived by the
time you should leave for a
dinner, is to order a taxi and
go alone, offering apologies to
the hostess as best you can,
as far as your escort is con-
cerned. BY the way, If he

There just aren't enough
good husbands in this coun-
try-a fact most any woman
will be glad to bear out. Why?
One main reason Is that
our present educational sys-
TEN does not teach young
men the Importance Of being
good husbands and fathers
as well as successful business
men and scientists.
Even more important, par
ents should instill a sense Of
responsibility regarding home
life into their sons almost
from the cradle; good hus-
bands are made, not born,
and too many Of them have
to be self-made.
A Letter
All this is by way Of lead
ing up to a letter from Home
Pecked Alvin, who seems un-
comfortable about some
things I have written.

quite so much about what

school two years ago and

since. still live at home with
my parents. When I come
home at half-past five in the
afternoon, I'm tired. Satur-
days and Sundays I'd like to
get out and visit my friends.
MY parents cut out some
Of your columns and lay them
before me, telling me how I
should do my full share Of
work around the house. Have

do that when I have my own
