Hints from Heloise wife s Day off is husband s payday Leila Roxanne Supinger marries by Heloise Cruse dear Heloise i m a male married and read your column regularly. Naturally a lot goes Over my head but at one time you had an article in your column concerning giving the wife a Day off once a week. My Lovely wife read the column to me at the time and i bought the idea. We have practice this idea Ever since i would like to say it pays Stop and think a Man usually works eight hours a Day five Days a week. A woman works seven Days and about 12 hours a Day she probably does More thinking planning and physical labor than her husband. It it too much for a Man in oils Day and age to prepare a meal at night whether frown or drive in or to take his wife out to dinner. There is a lot of satisfaction in doing that and it sure has its rewards. Maybe we would t hear so much about the women s lib it does have its Points if More men practice this idea. It certainly would t Hurt a Man to Wash dishes while his mate watched to. Besides it s Good for his hands on weekends she might enjoy an Outing even fishing instead of seeing a Lump of a Man with his eyes glued on a to Ball game All Day. He might even enjoy it besides he can read the scores in the paper next Day very sincerely Richard Ridgeway know what bet your ears Burn this week. I d venture to guess that you la be the topic of conversation and let s Hope it s conversation and not confrontation at Many a dining room table who says that chivalry is dead and that you Only read about knights in Story books i bet . Ridgeway disagrees. She has her very own. Handle him with tic that is tender Loving doll you be got a real Gem bless you Heloise dear Heloise the other Day the Washer was churning away the dryer was going and i had our portable dishwasher hooked up. In other words he engine room was going full tilt. I was Busy washing the Kitchen floor. I scrubbed and waxed around the spot the dishwasher occupied thinking i could get to that spot when the dishes were later i did scrub and Wax that spot. It was still warm from the dishwasher and you know when the liquid Wax was dry you could t Tell i had even touched the area. Even a second attempt did t do a thing. I Learned real Quick like to not Ever Wax a warm floor. I also discovered that i get a better liquid Wax Shine if the floor is scrubbed with Cool water instead of hot. All you hot water fans Cool it Judy Ellis Green survival it begins with you is the slogan of a National Campaign being conducted by the american association of nurserymen to focus attention on the important role that Plant life plays in a healthful environment.
