 Labor ceases to be a pathetic grind when there is sufficient incentive for doing it-sufficient reward ae the com pttion of the task; in fact, youth is so happily created that the normal young man or woman wants to work out his or her salvation more or less unaided, and certainly unhampered.
 Only those advanced in years are willing to accept and be thankful to get the finished-the perfect thtng-the home, which the other man has de- signed; the business which the other man has already built up.
 Youth wants to build for itself, whether home or business, or reputa- tion.
 The young married couple would rather create their own environment, and it is in line with this individual impule that the man desires to select his own life partner. and rebels against having even the best of girls thrust upon him by parental choosing.
