Happiness Is
Within Your ReacK
JT Is a curious thing that none
of the discussions of marriage
mention the simple fact that chil
dren play an Immense part In
cementing a marriage together, In
providing the parents with their
greatest common Interest, and in
building the family unit which Is
greater than any single individual
in it.
Nor do they point out how
large a percentage of wayward
girls and unmarried mothers come
from broken iamilles which, by
failing to solve their own prob
lems, have left their children to
suffer for their mistakes.
There was a 12-year-old boy
whose parents got a divorce and
placed him in a boarding school.
One. afternoon, the headmaster
came to tell him that a table had
been arranged for him because
his father was coming to dinner,
bringing his new wife, so that the
boy could meet tils stepmother.
The boy was embarrassed but
took the news very quietly. An
hour later, the distressed head
master once more came In search
of him.
"Your mother just telephoned,"
he said, "that she will be here
for dinner, bringing her new hus
band. She wants you to know
your stepfather."
The child was very white.
"What will the other boys think?"
he burst out, and then, with a bit
terness beyond his years, "Oh, the
hell with it!" He flushed. "1 beg
your pardon, sir," he said.
That night he sat between a
stepfather and stepmother, neither
of whom he had ever seen before,
while his own parents looked on
complacently, and, farther away,
,the curious eyes of his school
mates watched. He was very
quiet and very well-behaved. For
days afterwards, he lay in the in
firmary, too sick to move.
HPHE religious ceremony has
stood as the cornerstone upon
wmcn thousands upon thousands
of marriages have' been founded.
Those marriages pass before my
eyes like a giant kaleidoscopic
picture.
A young couple came In not
long ago to be married, accom
panled by the groom's parents.
After the wedding, the older cou
ple come up to me,
"We have been married 25
years," the man said, "but it was
a civil marriage, and my wife has
always felt that it had not been
truly sanctified."
"I wonder," the woman asked,
blushing a little, "if you would
bless our marriage?"
A young soldier whom I mar
ried was terribly anxious to have
a child. He was with his wife for
two months and left, at length,
believing that he was not to have
one. A few weeks later, his wife
wrote to him, "Wo are going to
have a baby. I know how happy
you will be."
In reply there came a letter
from the boy's commanding offi
cer. The day the letter came, the
boy was killed In action, but not
before he had read It. They found
it tucked in the little book of
prayer the church had given him,
and on It he had scrawled an
answer to his wife.
"If I do not como back," he
wrote, "do not grieve for mc. You
have given me the greatest hap
piness in life. You will have
sumething of mine and I will be
carrying on into the future.
Marriage is the rock on which
our- civilization Is founded. Too
often unsuccessful, it can be made
the most magnificent and satisfy
ing experience in life. It has
floundered and gone down not on
big obstacles but, for the most
part, on little ones. And yet there
is no one who cannot, if he will.
solve the little things.
Love and romance, rich and
rewarding, stand at our side, and
we see them only in shadow on
the movie screen, unattainable,
remote, unreal.
Here is your life, now. at hand.
Take It and welcome it and mold
it to the heart's desire.
