The thing that will bring these war marriages closer together than anything else is letters. John Steinbeck reported, after visiting the various war sectors, "One good letter can make the differ. ence between a good soldier and a sick man." Some soldiers, he said, worried so much about their affairs at home, either because they had received the wrong kind of letters or none at all, that they had to be put in the hospital. An American woman who did heroic work in France after its surrender, visiting 70 German prison camps to assist the French prisoners, said that a letter from home, a tangible proof that he was not forgotten, an assurance that he was remembered and loved, was like a tonic to a pris oner. It lifted his morale sky high. And the lilting or one man's morale, she observed, lifted the morale of an entire prison camp as nothing else could.- Proof that one man was not ' forgotten aroused hopes in the others, that they, ' too, were remembered, by someone. That is what one letter can do) , "Blessed are letters they are the monitors," wrote Donald Grant Mitchell. . "They are also the comforters and they are the only true heart-talkers." . 'THAT is why a letter from home Is the most cherished of a sol dier's possessions. But they must be cheerful letters, filled with the little tilings that make up a day's happenings the little things that. If he were home, he would talk and laugh about with his wife at ; the dinner table. A letter to a soldier is not the place for record ing fears and anxieties and wor ries. He has enough of his own, land he is helpless to take care of 'those at home. There are so' many tountless ways of filling a letter with laugh Iter and good cheer, with love and courage, with hope and plans for tlie future. ,;. . There are also countless letters not to write: the letter that com plains about trilling hardships at home; the letter that carries wor ries about the health or : the finances of the family; the letter that suys, "I know you don't mind my going out with other men, I'm so lonely"; the letter that be gins, "Now that you are gone, I find that it was all a mistake,, and that I am not really in love with you." "The only true heart-talkers!" Two people who have been mar ried in wartime, by talking hon estly and loyally from the heart, explaining what they are, , what they think and believe, can ac quire a profound knowledge of each other. Understanding can be lost, and is lost overy day, by peo ple who live side by side. It can grow and ripen and develop when they are thousands of miles apart. QNE of the first acts of adjust ment to marriage, whether the couple are together or apart,, is to plan together the kind of life they want. No livable house was. ever built without n blueprint, no' successful life without a design. The number of happy mar riages can bo increased when peo ple plan their lives as they plan their days, knowing what they want, what they must do to ac complish it, and how to go about it. Unhupplncss is often the re sult of a lack of Intelligence in dully living. Boredom and fail ure are often the result of a kind of mental inertia which prevents us from developing all sides of our personality and opening the locked doors of adventure. But no ono ever unlocked those doors without a key, and the key to them all is a realistic plan for your marriage and for the future. If it is not unreasonable to hope lliat world planning will soon bo under way, surely it is not un easiinablo to chart the course or two lives. Next: Why Divorces Are Increasing.
