This thing of waiting to be married
until the man is able to maintain a
wife in idleness is contrary TO social
philosophy and subversive Of real hap
piness. There is no good reason why a
young army officers wife shouldn't do
the cooking and house cleaning, nor
why theyoung married officer shouldn't
fetch in the wood and carry out the
slops-why both should not practice n
little economy and self-denial and raise
a family like other honest, God-fearing
and country-loving folk. Army life is
artificial enough and frivolous enough
now, as. indeed. is civic social life, and
the Corbin idea will drive it farther
afeld in downright wickedness. Philo-
sophy aside, when most young people
want to marry love will find a way. 1t
