American people is on a higher plane than that of Germany. Without a question the life of the young peo ple is purer, the demeanor of men among themselves less frivolous. One sees leas of tiee on the streets of tho large cities than on those of our own. n The belief that tho American woman lords it over tho sterner sex, aa Idea prevalent in Europo, is unfounded. Conditions there provide for meeting more on an equal footing rather than have the one lord it over the other. Aa a roault of tho mingling of the sexes from early childhood American marriages, on the whole, are happier, for the man and the woman HAVE LEARNED TO UNDERSTAND THEMSELVES and better know the shortcomings of the other and the better aide as well.
