The demands as limped out as follows: 1. A 20 hour Day and a 6 Day Week. Under the present sjsicin the husband Is on the joli the whole 24 hrs. of the whole 7 dajs and even while he Is asleep lie can't dream nothing that don't remind him of it The hushand wants the lira, between 8 and 12 every night for rest and recreation, and Sundays to themself for meditation and prayer nwify from the home. 2 The Closed Mouth. The ivuy it is now you don't know sooner get in the house when the owner wunts to know where you was. The husband wants the right to not answer. 3. A Increase of at Least 50 Per Cent In Pocket Money. The owners Is getting tdgger allowances than ever before but the husbands Is still supposed to go along on the old scale though It costs 3 and 5 times ns much to mingle around and where a imrson used to be able to get parnlyzed on $10 It now takes $25 and $30 to even feel like you wanted to hear the Rosary. 4. Collective Marketing. In rare cases, the owner consults the hushand as to what would he like for dinner but they generally always wait until just after breakfast when the bare mention of food stuffs rubs the fur the wrong way and even when a husband can reinemlier 1 of his favorite dishes ut that hr. in the morning and mentions It out loud why be has his trouble for tils pains you might sny, as the matter will either be forgotten and hushed up before nightfall or else they tried to get It but the man at the store advised them to pass It up as It was libel to be a little ranced at this time of yr. or something. In regards to Demand 4, while 1 don't like to drag Iu personalities however, 1 feel strained to say that I have been a husband for better or worse than 8 yrs. and have never kept tt a secret from the owner that my 2 favorite viands was oyster cream stew and doughnuts and yet during the entire Eight Tears War the no of messes of doughnuts lo our home has hardly ran Into double figures of 1 thumb. Iu the case of the doaghnuts It Is generally always broughten cp that lard Is too expensive for lardners or doughnuts dont set good on the kids or the owner don't know If lola can make them or not and they don't seem to be no way of finding out and If you get them from the bakery you don't know what Is In them though personly I don't give a darn as long as they taste greasy and fill you up. As far as oysters Is consented they's a version In the Psalms that says don't eat them only In months which Is spelt with a r and though It goes ta the grain for a man to speak of their wlfes short comelngs suffices to say that theys many a nice girl that was born a bad speller and just as many that cant bear the looks of a calendar around the bouse so for all as they know oysters may be at their zenith In July Instead of vice versx 5. The Abolition of the Birthday. The normal husband has as many birthdays per annum as the owner but where as the husband Is expected to remember the 10 of July or what ever It Is and spend the equal of half a yrs. gold dues where as on the other hand the owner If they don't for get the 6 of March entirely why they book that until you have buy you It read through you can set srovad evenings and pare your finger nails That Is the demands as they will be presented to the owners as soon as the husbands can get organized and I hope, dear editor, that you are Iu sympathy with this movement and will urge all the husbands on your staff as those amongst your suhsnib era to at once Join the Amalgamated Married Men of America and put s end to the humiliations to which s member of the servile sect becomes a party to the minute they are drug If a up to the harmeolal alter sod date on the walk out Is necessary chose which Is Xmas eve why I hope the owners will see the light and bow to the Inevitable and not try and continue to business with a gang of scabs. tC a is Bell Iradicat. taa.) 1 some-wner- The Haman Heart cs There Is no standard weight of a to human heart.
