"Good morning, ma'am. I'm demonstrating this little can. opener which will absolutely modernize your home."
It is they who form the bulk of the more obvious failures of the marriage system as at present con- stituted. It is they whose devolop- ment is most cramped and hurt, with plainest loss of potential power and good to their community.
For the simple fact is that is needs whole-time brain work to run this business of living together. It must not only be started well but constantly overhauled and kept running order. Yet this overhaul- Ing must be done with a rare com- bination of tact and honesty, and by both persons. It is
no good saying that this Is the woman's business, not the man's; no partner- ship can survive if only half of it does the work.
But again, the essence of a good is a deilcate thing-it marriage must not be constantly pulled up by the roots or it stops growing. And growth is essential to marri age. Yes, it is extremely difficult, not a thing. to be taken on lightly.
Only the really intelligent, only those who are prepared to work at It, to consider marringo not as s. safe cornor but as a constant and. exciting adventure, ought to marry- one another.
Let them go on and inake 4. good thing of it-let them show the world what marriage can be, Instead of the thing i too often le now! You say you are going to be mar ried? Are you really intelligent? Are you sure you are going to on-being, going to be able to apply: your intelligence to this particular problem?
If you are sure you are, good luck to you and, marry | chh you
