JUDGE Struggling Along Sire: My dear, I honestly think it’s a good thing for people who ma to have to struggle along for a wl —don’t you really think it is? He: Sure—you said it. Sue: I mean loads and loads of young people nowadays aren't getting married because they don’t think the man is making enough money. He h—that's a fact. s nd I think it's simply ridic, my dear, because there’s no reason why the girl shouldn't be willing to kind of knuckle down and live on aw- fully little for a while until her hus- band sort of gets started. He: Abs’lutely. You've got the right idea. Sue: But practically all the girls I know simply can’t conceive of the idea of marrying a man who hasn't got oodles of kale. He: Yeah, I know how it is. = Sue: But I think if you marry “He never cried to go to church with us before! What's the idea?” somebody you really love and have to “He says he wants to see the fight!” nter resort one always enjoys the skiing, Hy fH \ alll as well as the mountain climbing, re. and comes home feeling like a different man. 19 kind of struggle to make both ends meet it sort of makes a wonderful foundation for your marriage. :: Oh, sure—you bet! I must say I think you need awfully good maid, though, to sort of take entire charge of the household—do you know what I mean? h, I guess that’s right. > I mean if a wife's 1 dragged out and frowsy from doing household drudg- ery she’s bound to lose her fascination for her husband—do you know what I mean? He: Abs’lutely. Sue: And then, of course, after they've gotten along for a while with one maid and just a small car, I think they ought to have another maid as soon as they feel they've got money enough to entertain just a few friends. He: Oh, suri : I actually don’t see why two people shouldn't be able to marry and live on as little as five or six thousand But I think it all depends on the gitl because I mean she has to have an awful lot of character to give up everything just for marriage and all, He: Oh, sure. Sue: But I really think it’s the best thing in the world for a girl to marry a poor man and have him struggle to support her and all, my dear—I mean I actually do! —Ltioyp Mayer comicbooks.com
