because 1t is wholly personal and caprlclous

the fact that three mental stages are normally
passed through In this mate-choosing process.
They fall into error by concentrating attention
on the last. most obvious. emotional "love-is-
blind" stage. The first involves the broad de-
Termination OF associates The second Is
the narrowing OF choice to those whom we
specially admire and elect friends. The
last is the actual falling in love-"
One of the chief factors in this first stage Is
the structure OF the social unit to which we
belong. How frequently matngs are deter.

Then there is another group. composed of our

her associates are different in the two cases
but because the girls ideals will be differently
built up. The young man who goes with fast
girls is indirectly determining the kind of girl
he will marry--if indeed he Is not thereby led
to abandon marriage. During this second stage
OF more intensive associations or friendships
there is clear-headed discrimination, before the
emotions have become imperious I believe
that the period OF mere friendliness is longer In
most cases than the period Of conscious loving
before marriage. So the choice OF a
mate is not ordinarily capricious.

gagged in occupations other than housewifery
has increased progressively. 1t is not clear
which of these occurrences Is casual.
The ominouSness Of this declining marriage
rate is aggravated by the low birth rate which
these same women are found to contribute.
Now combining these results to get the birth
rate OF the graduates WHOLE We have
most discouraging result
Only the earliest classes with one or two
exceptions, have enough children to reproduce
the class. And this is not college, and Is
not in New England but in the same small city
as Washington and Jefferson College, much
larger Institution for men. If then under these
favorable conditions, the marriage rate Is so
low, and marriage is so late. We may infer that
the low rate is widespread.
Let us now examine some OF the results thus
far attained in a study of Wellesley College
data. made by my student. Miss Bertha Stutz-
mann.
Taking the Wellesley graduates OF the classes
OF 1905 to 1912. inclusive, it was found that
1871 per cent of them were already married in
the Fall of 1912, when the facts were collect.
ed But for graduates ose scholarship was

neglect their social opportunities
we see from this that the Wellesley alum.
There is only mitigating circumstances,
that these women have married superior men.
Out of the last fifteen recently reported engage
ments which l noted. seven are to college or
university alumni. although college graduates
make up but about per cent of the whole
population
That college women are superior to the
average woman Is safe inference However
we may use another criterion OF superiority.
Eminence may be measured by space in col.
lective biographies. Miss Castles figures show

contribution.
The objection has been made that eugenists
are too much disturbed by this late marriage
OF superior women To postpone marriage
seriously reduces the likelihood of marriage.
The critic says that late marrying women will
have their children closer together and so
eventually have as many. But the facts as
collected by Miss Smith do not bear this out
Furthermore. the late marriage of superior per
sons cuts down their contribution to the race
stream, because the years of fertility left to
the wife are reduced. Again. late marriages
are relatively ineffective because of the length.
