slcshed about the country several
years ago has all but disappeared,
some traces being discernible about
Greenwich village. The sociological
alchemists soon found that the fine
sounding phrase "free love- involved
an essential contradiction proof of
which was recently TO be found in
the statement of an English radical
that if it's free it isn't love, and if
it's love it isn't free.
If we didn't have marriage, Mr..
Bernard Shaw Notwithstanding, we
would have to invent something very
similar. The details of the relation
ship might be amended in more ways
than Miss Hurst has done, and the
habits of life involved in II might be
far more elastic so as to suit varl-
ETY. of joint necessities. AS one writ
er puts it, marriage has survived
the twin-bed-seems even to thrive
on it. 1t may, for some, do very
cheerfully without breakfasts and
separate homes"
So long as the contracting parties
are faithful to the heart of the re-
lationship it is hard to see how they
can do much to anybody.

MRS. COLEMAN THANKS
PEOPLE FOR HELP

My resignation as EXecutive-Sec-
retary of the Home Service Section
several weeks ago, and its acceptance
at a meeting of the Abbeville Chap
ter last Monday, terminated for me
an exceedingly pleasant service for
the Red Cross.
l am indebted to large number
of people in the county for interest,
sympathy, and cooperation, without
which the work could not have lived,
and for which I heartily thank them.
During my term Of Office it was my
privilege to assist many of the splen-
did young men who served us in the
World War, and shall always re-
gard that privilege the highest honor
Of my life.
