‘ WHY HUSBANDS STAY OUT. , • 1 i: . ‘ NIGHT-CLUB QUEEN TELLS. ' ; CHICAGO, Nov. 6. “Why do husbands stay out at night? The wealthy and notorious Miss “Texas” Guinan keeper of night clubs and “speak easies,” blames naging and worrying wives, who, she declares, force their men to seek meals and amusement elsewhere.
Addressing several hundred members of the Illinois Athletic Club, “Tex”asked: “Do you want to know what made me a rich woman? I’ll tell you It’s the wives who bother about their husbands with bills and servant problems. If you women would amuse your husbands when they come home, they wouldn’t slip away and pay a fivedollar cover charge to get amusement. The blonde perfumed “Tex” was dressed in black velvet and ermine, her skirt being the longest in the room. She opened her lecture on the subject of “ Why Husbands Stay Out at Nights,” with the admission that she had had three husbands, and run a New York night club for eight years, occasionally moving on, “ by request.”
“Do you know what breaks up homes? It’s jealousy,” she continued. “ All jealousy is the product of an imaginative mind, one that hasn’t anything to do. Most of you women don’t have to get up in the morning and go to work, so you can sit round and imagine.
“ Men don’t drink and carry on because they just want to go out and get drunk. Quit nagging, and remember that without men you couldn’t have any love or affection worth while. What if he doesn’t tell you everything? Don’t ask him! He’s just going to tell you what he wants to, any way.”
