There are men and women who thus Kill love cureleSsly; they may have a great love secure. wight In their hands, but there is a pressure of doubt, ty- rQuny. li>ru~r or compulsion and the life of that love may die. Love grows strong with freedom, confidence and trust. Love that needs constant watch ing Is not worth watching, and no guarding through fear of it's honor will ever keep it from Straying. Its strength must be in itself and In the inspiration thut comes from realiza- ton. recognition and response.
 There are homes that are over-gov- ernrd. They have as many laws, rules and regulations aS an institution. They remind you of these closely printed charts for conduct tackled on the inner side of doors in hotel rooms. In these homes you move about gIngerly for fear of stepping Inadvertently on a "dou't" No individual iS big enough, nor wise enough. nor great enough to dare 70 live the life of another, not with him. but for him. If he were all these his reverence for the individual rights of others would make 1t impoS- sible for him to usurp their sacred privilege of freedom In living their own lives, fully, freely, frankly, at their best.
 This domestic tyranny rules in thou sands of homes. It means the wrong of twO-the one who infICts 1t and the one who bears it. We hear much of the grace of patience and the beauty of long suffering. They are virtues when it means seIf-sacrIice for the right. vices when for the wrong. TOl- erating injustice meekly without pro rest and a mighty effort to overthrow lt when no good cause Is served, no noble purpose promoted is not moral bravery. it Is sheer cOwardice. It is the fear of an unpleasant half-hour that may save years of suffering. The one who bears meekly is doing inJus- tice to herself or to himself and-tO the other. It means weakening and wrouglng self and feeding the evil in auother's nature by inaCtion.
 The wife may say "he would flare up in an awful temper if I said a word. Let him flare. but let him understand that you will not be a party to 1t.

At the first manifestation of this variety of performance. let husband Or wife state positively that no encores will be per mitted.
