Own A Home.

OWn n nome
We believe in the institution called
marriage We believe no man has
reached the fullness of life until he
has a household of his own. We
believe man should take untoo HIM
self a wife.
Human tradition and human law re-
quire that, having done so, he shall
furnish her with food and shelter. So
far as shelter is concerned to rent a
room, or few rooms or a house
tradition and law. We doubt very
We believe that a woman may very
properly demand that the shelter that
is furnished her by her husband shall
be theirs in fact as well as in name.
We believe that, if we were a woman,
we would demand it. We may be
making trouble for some prospective
bridegroom in this town, but never
theless we suggest to the bride to be
that his ability or desire to furnish
her home is pretty good test of his
character and affection.
We do not mean that no man should
marry until he has the means with
which to build. But he should not
marry until he has the means to begin
building or to begin buying
Having begun to build or to buy, it
means years, perhaps CT self-denial.
1t means going without this and doing
without that. But, too, it means
more than that 1t means bond of
common sacrifice that will unite man
and wife closer than could the enjoy
ment of any luxury.
So, we say to the woman, marry the
man who is willing to give you a real
home according to his means. And, we
say to the man, marry woman who
demands it. 1t is that kind of
marriage that is likely to result hap

expression of the sentiment and mu-

The addresses given by the return

very interesting and instructive.
Mr.. Washburn exhibited number
