The Marriage Contrcct

A DEFINITE cause Of trouble is | fear The
marriage contract, or, to be more
rate, the way in. which it is regarded People in
sist on taking it so literally. They think Of the
words 'to love, honor and obey" They cling
to the form and lose the spirit. They forget
the absurdity Of promising soemnly to always
love- honor and obey some who almost Ger
tainly will be a very different some one
decade hence. Yet they keep holding up the
matrimonial banner while they utterly disle-
gard its slogan. 1t is absurd spectacle
as lawand-order parade upholding the Con-
stitution and pausing ever and again in its
march to break the Eighteenth Amendment
They forget the even more important fact that

INDUSTRIAL
UMPIRES

" NTER new ambition for the Ameri-
II can youth.
~ 1t is to become supreme umpire OF
some great industry. The baseball
magnates started in when they chose Judge
Lands, at staggering salary, to adjudicate
all the rows that might develop within the
baseball fold.
That is, Judge Landis's salary of $4,000
a year seemed staggering until the motion pic
ture magnates offered s150,000 year to Post
master General Will II. Hays to be their su-
preme umpire. Then people could look at the
judges salary without any undue giddness.
No doubt, now that the style has been estab-
lished. some other group industry more or less
given to fallings out among its heads will be
picking out another great man at the most
staggering salary of all to adjudlcate its tenn
peramental differences of opinion. And the
salary therefore will be something to make the
offer of the motion picture magnates seem
quite puny.
American parents have had fault found with
them along other lines, but they have never
been accused of being slow in picking out
choice avenues of employment for their chill
dren. Consequently it is only reasonable to
suppose that in more than one family it has
even now been planned that this opportunity
of supreme umpiring shall not be overlooked.
When the shoe manufacturers of the nation
decide that they need supreme umpire to set
tie questions of long short vanps, high or
medium heels and round pointed toes, there
will be found the right man for the place.
Little Ed or Joe will be there, ready to assume
the responsibility of cashing pay check Of at
least $4,000 every month.
Evidently the baseball magnatcs did more
than create mere job when they called Judge
Lands to their councils. They created a call
ing which should serve as combined spur and
trumpet call to the youth of the land. If all
captains of industry are to be under hmpires,
the moral is a veritable animated ele- tric s.sn.
Be an umpire of industry and you can lend
money to the mere capsainS.ss

arise in every household, but it will prevent

If conditions change, if wives change-and
we know what changeable things they are.-
and If we husbands-as is barely possible
change, let this fixed inner spirit Of the con-
tract remain the same.
Wherefore, l say unto you, 0 Brother Hus-
bands, with all the solemnty of one who is
frequently called a blithering idiot, be pleasant
Cut out all that clnging to the thought of
Love with capital L, and honor, and obedi-

Getting Together

HAS always seemed to me that Husbands
do not talk enough to each other about
their Domestic Difficulties Perhaps they
think that their wives talk too much. 1t is
certain that wherever two more teacups arc
gathered together there is sure to be a great
cacking of tongues and that much of the sub
Ject matter is about the absent males At
least, if it isn't the wife frequently quotes
verdict in her favor rendered by a friendly
jury of ladies anent some particular derelic-
tlon on the part of her particular man. The
prisoner, having been absent from and un-
represented at the trial except by the one who
is accusing him, is, naturally, somewhat at a
disadvantage. Indeed, he is often tried con-
demned and hanged before he has ever heard of
the case. l know nothing more foolish than
the feeling of husband when his wife says.
calmly: Yes, you say so-and-so but | was
talking it over with Edith and Alice and Mary
this afternoon and they all agreed with me. :"
The poor creature is completely over
whened, and usually takes refuge in childish
rage that his personal conduct should have
been so discussed behind his back, ven.nr his
displeasure by calling Edith and Alice and
Mary all sorts of hard names none of which
ne means because he probably likes them very
much.
Now, all this sort of thing could perfectly
we'll be avoided if Husband could onlv come
back with "Qutc so, my dear, and / had a
conference with Tom and Hugo and Wallace
this afternoon in my Office, and they voted
unanimously that my conduct in this matter
was absolutely O. K.-A-1"
But Husband never does this. He's too shy
or too loyal or too somethng and if he has
any conference with Tom and Hugo and Wal
lace they talk about business or baseball or
how they can get the Country Club out of debt,
after which they repair to some secret oasis,
where they can have just one small one before
taking the $3.50, which, incidentally, only
makes matters worse.
No. Husbands do not realize the advantage
of getting together. They just go it on their
own and the wife goes it on Every ybody y's--that

ing' things to wife, and there you are.

considerable accuracy into two large classes:

If they weren't they would be sad cases of

they begin to blame each other for it, And
truth isn't recognized. Petty cuarrels arise
