Leap Year Secret
To Get Your Man
Girls the secret Is out. You don't have to look like a glamour
puss In the slick paper magazines to keep your manl (Did you see

The Oallup poll gives out that 47 per cent of the married men ques
tioned give Uie No. 1 quality in a wife as "the ability to create pleasant
surroundings In his home and to be a neat housekeeper and above
average talent in the kitchen!" Faithfulness, devotion and sex appeal
are given a swift kick out the back door. What the boys want Is a good
girl behind Uie mop bucket and a sweetie with a way with a rolling pin.
Married men and single said an agreeable and pleasant disposition
rated second with faithfulness running third. A poor fourth place went
to "cooperative, a partner ". Only 11 per cent of the husbands chose
patience and understanding as of prime importance and being a good
moUicr was given first place by only 5 per cent. Only 2 per cent wanted
Intelligence and common sense, and 1 per cent demanded their wives
neither smoke nor drink.
The fellow who said the way to a man's heart etc. etc. said a
mouthful.
