RE

A wife needs Valentine and birthday remembrances to ff. set the monotony of housekeeping and the badgering of a budget more than she needs them as a girl friend when her life is exciting and filled with hope. - Saving together isn’t fun, but it's tragic when done alone. - A girl may mistake a man’s independent, domineering spirit for-

by tenderness and generosity after they reach the altar.

Your boy friend thinks you'd. accept him as he is. If you opposed him _ you'd have constant conflict. On top of that, his stinginess would embarrass you.

Girl Trouble

MY boy friend is having girl trouble, He ic just nuts about the girl he's gone with a year. She's nice, but started stepping out on him. He asked her to marry him and she said she would. She seems to like my boy friend when he has his dad's car and money in ‘his pocket.” WHat makes girls do things like this? JUST WONDERING, City. There's something wrong with your friend's personality if he has to count on his dad’s car and money in his pocket to appeal to a girl. Dating new girls might help that personal ity—and prove to his girl that he has appeal.
