For Husbands
1. Do you still \"court\" your wife with an occasional gift of flowers,
with remembrances of her birthday and wedding anniversary, or with
some unexpected attention, some unlooked-for tenderness?
2. Are you careful never to criticize her before others?
3. Do you give her money to spend entirely as she chooses, above
the household expenses?
4. Do you make an effort to understand her varying feminine moods
and help her through periods of fatigue, nerves, and irritability?
5. Do you share at least half of your recreation hours with your wife?
6. Do you tactfully refrain from comparing your wife's cooking or
housekeeping with that of your mother or of Bill Jones' wife, except
to her advantage?
7. Do you take a definite interest in her intellectual life, her clubs and
societies, the books she reads, her views on civic problems?
8. Can you let her dance with and receive friendly attentions from
other men without making jealous remarks?
9. Do you keep alert for opportunities to praise her and express your
admiration for her?
10. Do you thank her for the little jobs she does for you, such as
sewing on a button, darning your socks, and sending your clothes to
the cleaners? |
