WHO PROPOSES?
"The nature of man Is not to "bother with a tame rabbit. He likes to chase his own game. And probably ne would run like a hare if the lady proposed to him!" This is Miss Elinor Glyn's very comprehensive answer, to the suggestion by Gipsy Petulengro that women should be allowed to propose and so make their marriage business 50 per cent, happier, states the "Daily Sketch."
Grade Fields was more matter-of-fact. "What woman doesn't, I'm wondering! Only the man doesn't know it. You don't have to tell women to propose —they know all about it from the beginning!"
