divided around, but now things seem

three husbands and another hasn't

One man has the courage to marry
three women In succession, whereas
another man can't be induced TO marry

takes to get husband and how much
craft it takes to keep one.

Nv ria ri.s = ''' ''''
That Is one Of the few
questions which interests everybody,
literally everybody, In the world
When that question is answered by a
woman who has been answering It ten
times q day for ten years 1t is evident
that expert testimony has been given
at last. And so last night at the Twi-
light Dinner at the McAlpin every man
and every woman was all attention
when Miss Helen Rowland, writer Of
the clever Bachelor Maid Reflections
In "The Evening World" told what is
the matter with marriage.
Miss Rowland has qualified in more
ways than one to speak on this ABB
sorbing question. Not only has she
written on marriage. but she has been
and Is married. Her husband, W. d.
Brereton, was one Of the guests at the
dinner last night. Miss Rowland, how
ever, did not confne herself even to
telling what is the matter with mar
riage. She went further and told what,
In her opinion, could be done to bet

Marriage a Sacrifice, Not Sacrament.
"And yet, in spite Of the obvious
fact that nine hundred and ninety
nine people out of thousand would
rather be married than unmarried, sta

Why are more divorces being sought
and granted every year? Why are so
many women rushing into business and
the professions in order to escape the
exigencies Of married life? Why do
so many men appear TO regard mar
rage as a 'bunco scheme'-as q sacri-
fee rather than sacrament?
PERSONALLY, believe that everybody
should marry. But this habit of mar
