THE Problems of the Wartime Marriage PARENTS can do a great deal L to keep their children from drifting Into unhappy marriages, if they will start early enough In the work of making and main taining a true home.- The borne is the place of peace and con tentment and of preparation for busy, successful, and happy lives. If children are brought up to re gard their own home as some thing sacred, as a place where happiness and sanctuary from the outside world may always be found, these same children . will work to establish new homes of the same sort. Our great-grandmothers were taught that marriage was the only career for a woman, and they were made to feel that a wed ding ceremony was. the great goal toward which every girl was born to move. The modern girl is taught to look upon her indi vidual career and material suc cess in that career as the only goal toward which an intelligent woman can move, and on mar riage as a side dish at the ban quet. ' - ' '. , ,r; Tho girl whom you wish to save from a possible heartache and the tragedy of divorce should be brought up to' steer a middle course- somewhere between the old-fashioned idea and the-now one. Marriage, home, and chil dren tit 111 constitute the ideal ca reer for a woman. They always will. Let her have the career and the profession if she wants to as a side line. Certainly she should know the happiness of work and the pleasures of inde pendence, both for herself and for her children. But she should be taught that in a home and in children she will find her truest happiness, and the first require ment in that Instruction Is a be lief In tho dignity of the home, i rpHE mating Instinct continues In wor as it docs in peace. But the war marriage raises many problems. Tho young couplo marrying In -time are obsessed with the wrong kind of time Uio fleeting moments allowed them before the man receives his orders to go abroad. The time that is going to count in the war marriage, as in any other, is the long time ahead. If they are to bo happy together thon, they must stop now to weigh their feeling for each other, their knowledge of each other. ' At n time when life Is hectic and uncertain, when tho future secma problematical, it is easy to forget that the day must come when the couplo who has mar ried so frenziedly will have to settle down to a world at peace. When thut day comes and the marriage faces its real test, it will be tho marriage with tho fewest obstacles to hurdle which will have the best chance of survival and happiness. Then the uniform will be gone and the hysteria of war. Tho stranger will be a hus band. If his interests and tastes, his culture and sense of values, his attitude toward life, his re ligion and ills background are similar to his wife's, they will have a fair opportunity of coming out oil right. ' But if they ignored these "dif ferences when they got married in haste, if they knew each other so little that they did not even discover what the other was like, they are headed for trouble. Tho faith of people getting married that "it will come out all right" Is like a savage's faith in black magic. You magnify the quali ties you like and ignoro the quali ties you dislike. But marriage is n long aftair and the habits that you disregord now cannot be dis regarded when you are married. You arc not going to change the person you marry Into some one else you approve of. You arc going to have to adjust yourself to the kind of person ho Is. Mar rlago con bring out your best qualities but it will Inevitably bring out the worst too. Stop and think of these things before you rush In haste to tho license bureau. Next: Why I Oppose the War Miirriase. MeGTriie-lflll Book Co., Inc. Official Records Water turned off, May 26: 1.
