I would not call that ideal, because one le apt to magnify difficulties, but an ideal temperament must be acnsitive to express personality. Some tem- peraments are so terribly level and undisturbed that they scarcely seem to live.

An artistic temperament must be my choice, although the ideal woman must have some sporting gifts. She would play bridge, be- cause those who cannot are often a bore. She would be "useful" at tennis because the woman who will not make a fourth may bo nuisance. So with golf: I would include these minor accomplish- ments not so much for themselves, but in order that the woman may take her part in everyday life and

other folks' affairs.

Of course, genius in any direc- tion is a valuable asset, but for small talent I would ask nothing better than to be able to play the piano well by ear.

I wouldn't give a thought for position in creating my woman. Riches or poverty do not preclude ideals, but I would have my ideal married.
