Leap Year Only Name; Girls Do Wooing Anyway

This l>eing Leap Year, and spring being not far in the offing, young girls’ fancies are lightly turning to thoughts of love —and marriage proposals.

“Why shouldn’t we propose?” some of them ask defiantly. “Why should wo sit back and wait for the men?” Why, indeed? There could be only one reason—custom. But, man is ever the pursuer. He likes to do his own courting; or, at least, to think he is doing it. In reality, woman does a great deal of the wooing, as a rule; but she does it with such subtlety that the man does not suspect. The actual proposing, however, she leaves tt> him. If a woman, is clever, she has no need for Leap Year. And if she is not, her proposal would do her no good anyway. Why AMrhis? Dear Miss bee: We are two grirlg in love. Wo wish to pet married. Do you think it is all risrht, for girls to propose, as this is heap Year? The hoys both proposed to us once, hut we thought we were too young and refused. This happened some time ago. LEAP YEAR GIRDS. Why such drastic measures? I don’t believe they are necessary, girls. You can let the young men know you would not turn deaf ears to their proposals now, without actually going down on your knees and pleading, 'Will you marry me?” However, girls, before you even induce the men to propose, be sure you rtally do want to marry them. Are jou olci enough now? You do not tell me your ages, but I have a lurking s spicion that you would do well to wait a while longer. Financial Troubles My Dear Miss Lee: 1. My husband ami I are always quarreling over money. He doesn't think I ought to have Bpending motley. Ho always asks “How mueh do you owe? " Then, if I ask lor more, there Is quarreling. He takes from $lB to $?5 to spend on lunches and the automobile for two weeks. Do you think evey wife should hare an 'alowance. About what should she b allowed for her own personal use? My husband's salary ts $350 a month. I want hint to give me so much to run the house and buy my clothes. He doesn't like to spend much on clothes. I always have waited until' everything Is all run down. Then it costs so much to get everything that I have to buy cheap things

Martha Lee Says

so he won't think 1 spend so much. Then they don't last. 2. Is there any way to keep a man from pouting? It worries rae so much that I cry almost every day. and caunot sleep. 15. 1. Every wife should have share of her husband's income for household and personal expense. Marriage is a partnership. A wife is not a servant, to be paid wages grudgirtgfy. What the share is depends entirely on the income, the size of the family, and its way of living. Make out a budget, based on past experience. Include your personal needs. Talk over the budget with your husband, and then come to an agreement about money, so that the question will not be coming up forever after. 2. Crying certainly will not keep your husband from pouting. Instead, ignore the pouting. It is childish.' A pouting husband sometimes needs the kind of treatment you would give a child. Oh, Dear! Oh, Dear! Dear Miss Lee: My girl chum and I have been keeping company with some young men for some time. I am 18 years old and my friend is 19. The young men are 2.5 and 24. We have been in love with each other for a .long time, and have even set our wedding date. . . , Then the blow fell. As my chum and I were going down the at met. what did we see but our friends In a machine with two other girls. The}' actually hail the nerve to call us up as if nothing had occurred. Please adtvse us what to do. to continue to keep their company or do otherwise. TWO BROKEN HEARTS Do you expect me to take you seriously, girls? The boys probably were invited to ride home with a couple of girl friends, and did not think enough of the incident even to mention it. It seems to me you are quibbling But while we are on the subject, girlk, I'd like to remind you that you are young to be talking of wedding dates. Girls of 18 especially, frequently are still In the “puppy love” stage. —T— % Hay Rides Dear Miss Lee When is the proper time to give a hay-ride, at ntrht. or on Sunday and take them to a fishing camp? What should you serve? HAY RIDE Hay-rides usually are given at right. As they are rather noisy parties. Sunday would hardly be the time for them. If supper is served inside, you might have salad, sandwiches and coffee and soft drinks, with ice cream and cake or fruit. Or you could have a steak fry or wiener roast along the road.

LESLIE ritKMOTT TO JOHN AL DEN PKESI OTT DEAREST: We arrived here yesterday all safe and sound. Your mother is looking splendidly. I think it has done her a great deal of good to get rid of that terrible Priscilla Bradford. My visit is very amusing here. Your mother intended to b nice to me, but not particularly cordial, and at first she hardly looked at the baby. After a while 1 saw her edging over to him when she thought no one was in the room. Finally early one morning I heard a low singing in the room next to me which had been turned into a nursery during my viait. Mother Contes Over Getting up, I slipped over to the door in my night dress. You'll never believe it,-. Jack, but there was your mother In a wrapper, her hair in curl papers (I'll hot you Jack, you have never seen your mother in curl papers) and she was holding tne baby in her arms, singing: "A Charge to Keep 1 Have Little Jack s great, big brown eyes were open wide. He was looking at her with the utmost satisfaction. One of his dear little hands was fingering her throat. She looked happier than I have ever seen her, and os J came through the door she glanced up quite naturally, saying: "He's just like John was when John was a baby." "I knew you only had to see him, mother, to love him.” “I wish he did belong to me, Leslie,” she said wistfully. "He does, he does, Mother Prescott. I don't know any difference, hut I sometimes think it is rather foolish to be so sure a woman who has given hirth to a child can love it and be any more so a real mother to it than the woman who has taken the child because she loved it, not because It is her duty, but because of that love.” Your mother looked at me rather strangely as she said: New-Fangled Ideas “Leslie. I suppose that is one* of the newfangled Ideas. One of my greatest prides was that God had seen fit to let me bear a child and I believe I would have been very much hurt if I thought any other person could have loved Jack even as well as I.” Os course. Jack dear, l wanted to tell her she had been very selfish in her love for you, but. poor old lady, I expect she brought you up just as well as she could with the limited knowledge that one knew of child welfare at that time. Anyway, dear, I know you are the best man in all the world, and if little Jack grows up half as good as you are I shall feel I have done my duty as a mother. Don’t worry about me. I’m having a good time here. I think now I was partly to blame for your mother’s antipathy toward me. Very Sweet She really is very sweet, and although w r e do not agree on one subJ|| M&ery'i Hours’ ] : BREAKS THAT GOLD ; Hill’s Cascara Bromide Quinine will | break your cold in one day.

ject, we are getting along pretty well together. Os course, I have to keep my mouth shut more than I’d like. I wonder if all old people are as cocksure of themselves as your mother, Jack Do you see that little spot here on the letter It was made by your son’s tiny lips and your wife has also pressed a kiss upon it. We are sending them both pith love to you. LESLIE. (Copyright, 1924, NEA Service, Inc.) NEXT: Kuth Ellington writes to Leslie I’recoott—All happy at home.
