"What's more, since we are the male types, the questions often are asked with more devastating candor than those asked single girls. "And it isn't fair. 'Why don't you get married?' can take on a friendly solicitation when asked of a gfrl." "But oftentimes," said Krebs, "especially when it's a crusading female asking the question of a guy, the poor sap somehow feels his virility is being put on trial." j Our bachelor goes on: "What doesn't seem to occur to all these marrieds, who want to force us to join them in their reputed state of bliss, is that it's just possible we're enjoying the single state. ' - "But if one of us dared answer '. . . Because I'm hap pier unmarried just at this time, we wouldn't be be lieved anyway."

Al drew up a list of retorts: - I really can t, you see. because of my salary." i-"What? and give up eating at tne automat?" "I can't get married now -you're already taken." Al said, "they love you for that one." -"Did you say MARRIED? Why, I'm only 32!" -"Frankly, at least three psychiatrists have advised against it."
