What the Chinese Can
Teach Us About MARRIAGE

tn, in turn, a younger generation is mar
ried, spprenticed, and ready to take the
reins OF support.
Among the Caucasian races a gin is
physically ready for marriage between
the years Of seventeen and twenty, and
a young man from nineteen to twenty
two. Instead, however. of the majority
of marriages happening at these ages
we find them along in the very late twen-
ties and early thirties, owing to the
fact that young men cannot establish
themselves in sufficiently remunerativo
work until they are nearly thirty.
The solution of the problems involved
in the increasing childlessness per cap
tia, in the disappointed lives, in much of
our younger life may be found in apply
ing the best OF the Chinese principles.
This would mean that father must
shoulder the responsibility of equippinE
his son for a certain earning capacity IN
his own or some other trade before the
son passes the age OF twenty; that the
father must see to 1t that the son earns
a manageable salary at twenty or sup
plement It from his own; or II these
steps are not possible he must take un.
der the protection of his own roof his
sons new bride until the son himself be-
comes a self supporting father and in
turn takes on the responsibilities OF
fatherhood.
Following such a scheme OF things n
college-trained man would have TO grad.
uAte from his studies at about nineteen
years Of age and enter Immediately on
his life work. In year or two he would
be in a position to marry with some de.
gree Of safety for his bride. He would
obtain some financial assistance from
his father II that were necessary. This
would then make things as In the old
days, when many girls were married at
sixteen and when parents were not In
such great hurry to shunt their young
offspring out to shift for themselves

Peter appeared to be laughing
but it is impossible to say
just why"

In the writing by the ape his man-like
hands, together with training, probably
account for the facility with which he
performed this human action, though imi.
tation Is possibly factor here. What &C.
counts for his seeming eagerness to mark
on the paper might, however, be an inter.
esting question. II would be interesting,
also, to test how far the ape might be
taught to carry his writing. Investigation
In this line is still very incomplete.
Peters articulation OF the word mama"
was possibly quite mechanical and parrot
ike. perhaps not understood by himself.
STILL II would be interesting, the professor
observes, to test how far such speaking by
apes might be carried.
Peters correct attempt to open the
watch appears to the investigator like intel.
ligent imitation. However, though the
keeper assured the professor that the ape
had had no training in that act, the scien-
tist is inclined to doubt the statement.
Then, perhaps, we could account for the re-
action by the apes hands, his training and
the well-known curiosity of all monkeys.
II the veracity OF the keeper can be relied
upon, We have here, as IT appears to the
writer, case of intelligent imitation.
I'm the matter OF the ape increasing
speed to ride up the inclined plane, II train
ing does not account for 1t, we appear
to see evidence Of something very like
ideation or reasoning OF a low order" COM
ments Professor Shepherd. "If, in this in
stance. ideas are present, they are perhaps
what Hobhouse has named practical ideas,
1. e.. crude and unanalysed ideas. The
writer is inclined to believe that the lat
ter, together with motor-equipment and
training. are the factors involved"
Consul, the other ape observed, did most
of the feats which Peter had done, such as
putting on a napkin and eating at table,
getting upon a bicycle and riding around
the stage. riding between nine bottles. rid
ing up an inclined plane. Consul did these
acts In a similar manner
The latter ape also performed some other
feats. He poured out his coffee, picked his
teeth. cleaned his teeth with q brush,
cleaned his tooth brush. He rode wheel
with lamp on his head. held by himself
while riding; he bored with an auger, put
the rounds In anu fitted together a ladder,
with some help. He took a tablet and
pencil and wrote, or the keeper said he
wrote; but the professor could not make

-| HAT young men and women of the
civilized countries are physically
= ready for marriage many years
before they are financially ready to un-
dertake it's responsibilities, is now given
as the cause for the increase Of the So
cial evil with its tradn Of nlegitimacy'
disease and childlessness.
Students of social betterment have
found that the confirmed bachelors and
spinsters who are apparently Sinking
duties of privileges Of marriage ana
childbirth, do so not because OF disin-
clinatton or preference, but rather be-
cause of lack of sufficient incomes to
warrant an early, natural and happy
marriage.
Sociologists, college professors ana
leaders of young peoples organizations
have for many years deplored the de-
crease in early marriages. They have
urged young men TO marry and trust to
luck and hard work for the bread sup
ply. They have asserted that one love
affair In every life predominates all
others, that when this has come 1t is time
TO marry. as love is likely never to come
with the same force again. Yet all OF
this, though true, cannot persuade far
seeing young man or girl to take the
venture on a salary of twelve dollars a
week.
In China It Is the parents Of prospee-
tive bridegrooms who make the arrange
ments for the marriage OF their sons.
They aid and supervise the choice OF
wife and carry on all negotiations for
the dover OF the bride.
After the marriage ceremony the young
bride is obliged to take up her abode In
the homo of her father-in-law. Her hus-
bands living and her own are thereby
guaranteed and the bridegroom usually
serves In his fathers business. After .
certain period he becomes the sole means
Of support. the parents always retaining

the hands,"

dences OF affection for his keeper by such
acts as putting his arm around the latter
in a very human-like manner and kissing
him. When the professor questioned
Peters keeper as to the sympathy and
good humor shown by apes, the keeper, in
the apes sight, pretended to have hurt his
hand, whereupon Peter went to him, put
his arm around McArdle and by his acts
gave very evident signs Of ape sympathy.
Peter acted in similar manner when the
professor also pretended to have hurt his
hand.
1t was Peter who gave the strongest
evidence for the argument that the chin
panzee possesses sense Of humor. After
the chimpansee had written something on a
slate he tried to hide It as If taking a ma
licious pleasure In puzzling the investi.
gators. There was also at times an ex-
preston on his face very much like q
human laugh, but 1t would be rash 70 as
sumo that it was from the same source
without further investigation.

out what he wrote. He took down the re-
ceiver OF telephone and listened, or APP
peared to listen. The ape used type
writer, that is, he pressed on the keys, so
far as the investigator could judge.
Consul threaded needle, cut paper into
strips with scissors. He took key and
locked and unlocked a paddock, and did
other acts requiring similar intelligence.
These acts by Consul, like similar acts
by Peter, are perhaps accounted for prin-
cipally by the animals motor-equipment,
erect carriage and training.
Some of them, such as riding up the in
clined plane and increasing his speed to go
up, again raise the question of ideation or
lower form of reasoning In the animals
mental makeup" observes the scientist.
The professor did not note In Consul

Upon command from the keeper. Peter
took up a hammer and q nail and drove
the nail Into the wall quickly and without
observable awkwardness.
AS test OF imitation. the professor took
out his watch and pressed on the stem
slowly, and opened the watch three times,
while Peter watched his actions with atten.

the professor reached It to him: he held It
