years upward, may be considered together.

Delays
Marriage
Young Man of
Present Day
Lacks Courage
By HELEN OLDFIELD

7 GENERALLY is agreed that young men nowadays show
much less disposition to marry, above all to marry young, than
was manifested by their fathers and grandfathers. Judging
by observation, which is less misleading than statistics, young
men, as a rule, do not tumble ~headlong into matrimony in the
happy-golucky, cheerful, not to say reckless fashion which was
comparatively common fifty or a hundred years ago.
Different times, different manners; :" the changed condi-
tons of social life have much to do with this change OF heart,
It seems to take the young man of today at the least ten years
The Charles Mix new era. (Wagner, Charles Mix County, S.D.) 1???-1911, 1910-10-21

longer to screw his courage to the sticking point than it took his father
to do, and there is good reason to regard such hesitation merely as p
dence upon his part.
In these degenerate days things sadly art altered and he who wo
marry at twenty-five either must have a comfortable and assured inco
or be possessed of a sublime belief in himself and his brdeeect.
must be ready to forego most of the pleasures and luxuries which Gust
and popular habit have converted into almost necessities, and, alas,
will discover that the young wife of the present day expects much m
and performs far less than did her mother thirty years or so ago.
She by no means will be content to sit at home evenings and d
stockings while her husband goes to the club, or, if he be the exempl
his father was, STAYS at home also and reads aloud from some impr
ing book.
1t is because of all these things that the man of today drifts past
The Charles Mix new era. (Wagner, Charles Mix County, S.D.) 1???-1911, 1910-10-21

susceptible age and settles down into a steady-going,
club haunting bachelor, who is content with his bill
lizards and bridge, and has no inclination toward mar
riage.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that when a man
truly is in love, still more when passion seizes him in
its grip, the question which exercises him is not
whether he shall marry Her, but whether She will
marry him. Then it is, for her sake, that he should
weigh the pros and cons and remember that it is the
part of true love to shield the beloved from p~rivation.
