Moat of the nega- j {ive replies have been from women, who all seem to feel that | the male of the species enjoys the chase. The general run of | the letters would seem to indicate a tendency to “pass the} buck” in the matter of proposing. | The discussion must close now, leaving us, I fear, with | no clearer conception of the really “correct thing.” One con-| | solation, however, is that “Leap year” will soon be with us j again, and the ladies in favor of the women proposing may | try their hands without fear of criticism, or talk of a “new! order We wish them the best of luck, and as women are said to far surpass men in the art of shopping and bargain hunting, fewer marriages contracted in 1924 may be brought | back for “refund.” | Following is the honest opinton of a lady evidently of a\ psychological turn of mind: Dear Miss G Shall a woman propose? What next? Sakes alive—my goodness! Of sugar—no! No self-respec | ng woman with fine feminine qualities could possibly do so. | Why do some women desire to cheapen themselves more than many have already done? A woman by nature is gifted with subtle qualities and will obtain the man she desires, | and he will not realize that she really brought it all about, | but will think to himself, “I did it. he gave me a run for my money, but I won out at last Man is a born | hunter; he wishes to feel that he, himself, has achieved the | object of his desires.
