Many a young woman who de
serves a good man for a life com
panion, has jumped in at a tender
age and married a Johnny and
gone through lifeembarassed the
rest of her days. Johnny is all
ri.ht as an ico cream boy and as
a slot machine, with which to get
chewing gum and bon bons, but
when it comes to measuring up,
in after years, with the men who
do things, and whose wives make
up the budget of satisfied ones,
he is down and out before the
race starts. Girls, if you marry,
and if you'd be hippy, be sure
and marry a man, or at least,
what Is going to be a man.
