in part: "What's in a kiss, anyhow,
that so much attention is being paid
to it?" To which I make answer:
The kiss is responsible for much of
the worlds happiness, being the
seal of true love. Again, it is respon-
sible for much widespread misery,
causing many a maids undoing. The
first touch of the lips awakens the slum-
bering heart. Reverence and respect
are blended in that instant contact. 1t
is when lips cling to lips that passion
enters and respect takes wing and evil
thoughts wedge their way in as re-
suits show in too many unfortunate
cases. All of heaven is blended in a
mothers kiss. 1t is always short and
instantaneous, never long and cling
ing. The kiss of innocent childhood
is always short as it is gentle and
sweet. The kiss between husband
and wife is short and of pure devo-
ton. The kiss between relatives is
never fervent, but kindly and dignified.
The lover who receives the first kiss
from his betrothed's lips makes it nee
essarily short, and he is wise in this.
witnessing the clinging kiss upon
screen or stage can accomplish no up
lifting influence to the OnloOker. 1t
will be of quite as much import, carry
ing out the story, if it were cut down
to minimum length. To those in the
audience the transport of love, as ex-
pressed in. the kiss, between the hero
and heroine seems to be very real.
1t would rob many of their enthusiasm
If they but knew the stage or screen
heroine's thoughts are far removed
from the man who is giving her that
drawn-out clinging kiss. She might
be counting the moments until she can
get home to her sick child. The sup
posed lover is wondering if he will
miss the train on which he is anxious
to meet his old mother who is accom-
panied by the girl he is engaged to, and
is soon to wed. The kiss they are
obliged to indulge in has no effect upon
this man or woman. It's part of
their business. They go through with
it, each with no thought of the other.
Both are anxious to earn the hard,
cold cash, which their careful, Subtle
acting brings them. Save that it per-
fects the picture before the audience
neither would care a flip of the finger
whether the kiss was cut out or not.
1t is the unlocking young girls who do
not make business of feigning affec-
ton, whom it is wisest and best to pro-
tect. 1t is presumed the censors are
not bachelors, but have daughters Of
their own.

THRILLING WITH AFFECTIONS.

When a man admireS a woman and
begins to pay her marked attention,
knowing full well he is not in posi-
ton to marry, does he stop to con-
slider that he is doing her a gross in
justice? Not he. If women had hearts
that We're hard and cold, all might be
we'll. The trouble is woman's heart
Is tender and easily touched and i'm
pressed by the man who makes it
pleasant for her. With women, it is
but a short step from friendship to
love.
So many young girls write me in
this strain: "a young man has been
calling to see me for many months.
During this time, learned to care
for him, although he had spoken no
word of love. Suddenly he stopped
coming to see me and is going with
another. My heart is breaking. What
can do about it?"
That's it. What can these girls do
about it? 1t seems impossible for
some girls to be thrown in contact
with attractive, marriageable young
men without becoming the victim of
misplaced confidence. How strange it
is that men do not think of this. Ac-
tually they court when they have no
thought of marrying, The seriousness
of the affair does not seem to occur
to these young men.
In such a case, young man once
said to me: ''Why do girls give their
The midland journal., 1917-03-02

hearts unasked? I have been call
ing on a certain girl simply because
she made it pleasant for me evenings.
What is the meaning of friendship
If it is not passing social hours with
those who interest us and whom we
are also interested in. No man feels
called upon at the outset when he first
begins to call to state, I am on the
narry!' or not on the marryp as the
case may be. How does he know
whether his heart is to succumb to
love the fair creature or not?"
Affection comes after a man and
woman have been brought in contact
for a length of time. If man finds
that he is not experiencing the grand
heart throbs at meeting or parting
from her and is Indifferent as to
whether or not she entertainS other
callers, he is not in love. Then the
more quickly he ceases his attentions
to her the better for both it will be.
In breaking away, he is simply giving
someone else who may care for her
a chance. 1t is the man who continues
to call, even after he has won wom-
ans heart and knows her affection is
hopeless, who should be blamed.
Wake up, young men, think this
matter over, you VINO are backward in
declaring your intentions. The girl
you visit so constantly has a right to
know why you are coming. The man
who wishes to be friend only should
limit his calls to one a fortnight. 1t is
cruel to trifle with woman's affec-
tionS.
