1T must be Mrs Adams fault,
say the men, for finer man, with a
higher sense Of honor than JACK

"Yuu needn't tell Us that Mrs.

for a sweetcr. tenderer, more loyal
or more conscientious woman than
Marian Adams is, the good Lord never

their friends in unison. "Why, they
were simply mad about each other
AM how they could ever come TO the
parting OF the ways is beyond our
imagining"
Their little world has never compre-
hended the real reason OF the Adams
divorce Perhaps the Adams them
selves do not understand the true IN
WArdness OF 1t, or know that IN
way they are the victims OF their day
and generation, and Of the two forces
that so often oppose each other-here-
dity and progress.
More particularly they are the VIC
tins OF the new feminist movement
in which the woman has gone forward
into a new world with different ideals,
q different faith, another outlook from
that occupied by her grandmother
while the man has stayed still in the
very spot where his grandfather stood
and regards women from precisely the
same standpoint that his grandfather
did.
The story Of the Adams divorce is
a novel in three volumes Let US
read II.
Volume /:
Sixty years ago Jonathan Adams
was married to Mary Brown. Jona-
than was a good man. He loved his
wife, and he meant to be a good hus-
band, but his idea of what constituted
a good husband was identical with the
slave owners idea Of what constitutes
a good master. He thought he had
done his full duty by his wife when
he saw that she had enough to eat, a
house to live in, and such clothes as
he considered proper to give her.
For the rest, he expected his wife
to bear his children, perform all the
duties of a perfectly trained upper
servant, be properly grateful to him

:!on, and she was financially depend

with him, hating him as only a slave
can hate an unjust master. and their
home vas a place Of never ending
turmoil and strife.
Volume 3
Five years ago Jack Adams and
Marian Brown we're married. Jack
vas a fine fellow, but he followed in
the footsteps OF his father and grand
father, and began to treat his wife as
he had seen his mother and grand
mother treated
Il am the head OF this house" he
declared lmperiously.
Nonsense laughed Marian, we
are matrimonial partners with equal
authority
Il demand that you shall obey me
IS my mother and grandmother obeyed
their husbands" insisted Jack
Il shall respect your wishes as far
as possible, but it is childish to talk
o: me obeying you. l am a grown
woman, intelligent, educated, not
fool or a slave to give blind obedi-
enCe, replied Marian.
That was the beginning of the
struggle between them that ended
with love lying dead at their feet
Jack was determined to conquer Ma.
rian, to break her spirit, to force her
into the attitude Of subservience that
he had seen his mother and grand
mother occupy to their husbands. He
really loved Marian. but he believed
hy,ch pY el
wife completely.
Marian was as strong as he, as cour-
ageous. Life was tolerable to her
only on terms of equality with her
husband. This he would not grant
her, and so between them ensued the
tragic battle Of two people who love
each other and yet who are urged on
by forces stronger than they are-the
woman by progress, the man by tradi.
ton, and the blind arrogance of the
male.
She could not go back. He would
not move forward. She could not en-
dure the meekness Of his grandmoth-
er, nor live in the turmoil and SQUAD
bles that his mother did. She was
trained business woman, able to make
her own living, and so she left him.
1t is because women have moved
forward into new world where mems
imaginations have not followed them
that divorce is increasing.
