‘One Who Knows’
f an Keep lIubby
Dear Blanche:
Atkinson, Nebr.
Isn’t* it amusing and rather dis
gusting, all the articles in the
magazines one sees on “How to
hold your man”? Of course, they
have different headings but all
■ -i_
| mean the same thing. Goodness!
What one does have to go through!
j You must keep a figure like a
model and dress like one, toe
| (no mention of a budget or Jun
ior’s suit and baby’s shoes), keep
j a pleasant disposition so the old
boy will never be irritated and
also keep up on world affairs so
you can talk intelligently on any
subject.
He must be fed nutritious at
tractive meals with all his fa
vorite dishes and the house must
be spotless. You must never both
er him with your troubles. You
must meet him at the door as
fresh as a daisy with a kiss and
his slippers. Woe is me! Have
any of them ever tried to manage
a home and raise a family? I rath
er think not.
But what gets me is that friend
hubby can develop a bay window
or stay skinny as a bean pole,
which ever the tendency may be;
can shave when he feels like it;
come in with clothes only a rag
man could love and bore you to
tears with his difficulties; come
to meals late and do anything else
he pleases and you must stay
sweet and loving with never rais
ing your voice or the old boy
might seek greener pastures.
Huh? What do they think we are,
a bunch of morons? Maybe they’ve
got something there—we must be
rather simple at that to bother
reading such nonsense.
They always amuse me no end.
I just can’t imagine anyone get
ting paid for writing such non
sense. I’ve often felt I could com
pete with another woman, maybe
even come out on top. If nothing
else, I could pyll her hair and
scratch her eyes out. But gee, be
ing a farmer’s wife is rough!
How are you gonna win over a
mother pig with 10 little ones that
get all the attention, or the old
Jersey cow that really has what
it takes? Those magazine writers
just don’t know the half of it.
Maybe I’m just a bit old-fash
ioned but I still think it takes face
powder to catch him and baking
powder to keep him and most of
the big brutes are more interested
in what’s cooking than whether
your dress is the latest creation.
He has to pay so he hopes it
isn’t the latest number. Any
wives wear jeans? So hanging
slips and sagging socks are just
no worry at all.
If I weren’t so busy using the
baking powder, I believe I’d write
and tell them the perfect solution.
Just keep the old boy so busy and
fill him so full of victuals that
all he wants to do is sleep. Then
your figure may spread as it may
and the greener pastures will fadi
into the horizon.

of imported illusion which fell
from a cap of pearls. She wore
pearl earrings and matching neck

rowed, something blue and a pen
ny in her shoe.

of O’Neill, friends of the bride,

served at the Stuart auditorium
at 12 o’clock for 60 relatives.

ternoon from 2 to 4 o’clock at the
auditorium. The bride’s table,
covered with a lace cloth, was
centered with a three-tier wed
ding cake topped with a miniature
bride and bridegroom and flanked
on either side by candles and
bowls of flowers. The wedding
cake was baked and decorated by
the bride’s mother and served by
Mrs. James Batenhorst. Sisters of
