They fail because they are based on failure: they do not endure be cause the thought of endurance has never entered the minds of the people who marry. A mar riage which Is taken lightly or flippantly is inevitably bound to fall, because it is built on sand. The Little Church does not be lieve in easy marriage. In a sin gle year, five hundred applica tions for wedlock were refused because the applicants failed to give evidence of any real sincer ity, of any faith or desire that their marriage would last. Many of these young people felt that by marrying they were merely con tracting a liaison that could be broken whenever they tired of one another. "We are being married simply because the law requires it," they confessed in answer to questions. it Is a convention and apparently we have to accept it. But, nat urally, we are marrying ' with reservations. If we find we do not like each other, we won't stay married." Some young couples argue, "It we marry with the idea that we must stay married, we might not be happy. But, by keeping an open mind and using marriage as an experiment, we are allowed some freedom of action." A prospective bride said that by making a trial of marriage she would not need to fcor that a hus band could throttle her personal individuality. What is wrong? I believe that the source of the trouble is that young people do not understand the meaning of marriage. THESE youngsters who tret nhnnl anhmorfflnfy thntp sonalities do not grasp the fact that the only complete person ality is one in which both mascu- ine and feminine qualities are blended. Marriage does not stunt the personality, it completes it. The true blending of a man and, a woman docs not submerge- ei ther; it strengthens both; It sup plements both. A man described this sense of fulfillment, of completion, in a truly happy marriage when he said, "Neither my wife nor I have anything alone; together we have everything." It is that sense of togetherness which creates the single entity which Is so much more Important than two war ring, Independent personalities. ' "I want to be myself, a young woman told mo defiantly. "I am going to continue to live my own iito in my own way." lint, ot course, she cannot do that and have a successful mar riage. It In n Joint life which mist be lived. Marriage, after ull, is a discipline, a constant learning to give and take. Too much freedom is destructive. TN broken marriages, the fault Is msband or of the wife. They may not be equally at fault, but tho fact remains that neither one s without fault. In nearly everv instance, disruption could be avoided and happiness secured by the proper use of common sense, humility, and forbearance In the beginning. A realization that no mmnn being is infallible and that (here Is always blame on each side in every disagreement is nec essary. Selfishness, annoyance, pride, and lack of understanding with no attempt at real under standing destroy love more often and break up more marriages than nnnellly. Looking bock upon 20 years In which I have guided ond odvlscd some 50,000 young couples who were married in the Little Church, sec tnnt mere are live cardinal rules which I have offered to brides for a happy marriage. Here hey are: 1. Be kind. 2. Remember mnrrlagt ( a vrrfiirr.flhip. .?. Don't lose ionr temper. 4. Don't postpone making lip a unrrst. 5.
