WinifYed EIaCk Writes About:
A Girl Who Hates Marriage

less will? Nobody. nobody at all
but the cir s father.
But-enter the villain.
She'll BE Glad.
What a pity it is that we have to
have parents at all-they do inter
fere so. OF course, at times they
come in handy when you're in debt
or I'm trouble. and perhaps If the
girls sweetheart got tired of her
and ran away with someone else and
she were in and poor and nobody
would speak 10 her-her father
would come in as a kind of conven-
fence. But what do disgrace and
shame and humiliation natter when
they're only waiting for YOU around
the corner. and not right there with
you. this instant?
Poor. disillusiOned little girl
how she does hate being a bride
Well, some day she'll grow up
really And then, do you know. 1
believe she'll be glad she had a
father who insisted on protecting
her against her own folly and ig-
nOrance OF the world For after all,
the one stupidest thing for a wo-
man 10 do is 70 protest against the
one protection she has in the pres
ent state OF society. and that is
marriage, and the laws Of maria &c.
