city.
Il believe in monogamy,' Miss Put
nam declares. at ought not to be called
a failure, because it has never been
tried by society as a whole. On one
side there have been all the evasions,
the hypocritical arrangements toler-
ated by professedly moral and mon
ogamous civilization, while on the other
side the marriage relation has been
hooked up with so many irrelevant con-
ditions-the joint household, the wom-
ans skill as a cook, her dependence on
the man as a breadwinner."
Each Earns Living
Miss Putnam also holds that there
is another reason why a man and wife
should not live together-because there
is a constant temptation to devote too
much time to each other and not get
any work done.
There will be no difficulty about
money-each party to this marriage is
earning a living. and all the living ar
rangements will be on a fifty-fifty
basis.
Marriage means love, romantic love
founded on trust and managed with in
| telligence," said Miss Putnam.

thing in marriages has arrived. The
bride and groom live in separate estab-

keeps his name; WHEY keeps her. Both
wear ring. They visit each other

couple of days whenever the mood
soizes them. In this way love will
never grow cold" the two wifi remain
sweethearts all their lives, wiley will
