No, I don’t believe that a girl TUESDAY, DECEMRER 5, 1922. ~Cynthia Grey: Pretty Girls, Don’t Crow vd—Here's Man Who Appre-| ciates Art and Would Not Expect Beautiful Wife| to Become Household Drudge. BY CYNTHIA GR®Y A correspondent has taken exception to my slatement that marriage should be @ 50-50 proposition. A beautiful girl) Should demand a premium and not have to sew on buttons and wash—this from a man, too. Can you beat it? His let- ter follows: Dear Miss Grey: In a recent article in your column in which you stated that marriage should be a 50-50 proposition, will say that as a man of artistic temperament, I do not agree with you, especially in the case of where a pretty girl is to be taken into consideration. If I were to marry a pretty girl it would be entirely out of my love for art and beautiful creations. Any girl that has} had the good fortune of being endowed with beauty should| not marry one who does not possess the appreciativ eness of these qualities. I am not referring to the jazz variety of a} girl; I am referring to beauty that IS SKIN DEEP, in other words, beautiful thru and thru—beauty with a soul, A man that is fortunate enough to win this type of a girl and then expect her to sew on buttons, do his washing and all the housework is not deserving of her, and will say that she has made a very poor choice. I don’t see that marriage was designated so that a man might enjoin a partner to do} his housework gratis. Men will often pay a very high price | for a beautiful oii painting and be satisfied with hanging it on the wall, and then when they are fortunate enough to win a real living piece of art, what do they expect of her? An should be lazy because of her gift of beauty. She should study music, attend all the good operas, be interested in good literature and live for the uplift of art and humanity. G. B.W.
