Why Is Love
Essential
In
Marriage :?

/ for deliverance when we see him
| heading our way.
But we never tire of those we love.
We may know them for only high
grade morons, but we can listen to
their bable about the state of the
grocery trade, or what the children
said and did, for hours without
wearying. 1t is only love which
keeps us perpetually interested in
those about us. and that makes the
story of their days as thrilling as a
book of high adventure.
Love is essential in marriage be-
cause 1t is only love that can endure
the disillusions of matrimony.
Before marriage every woman is
an angel to her lover; every man is
hero to the woman he is counting,
and marriage itself is to be a dream
of bliss.
Real life shows the feet of clay.
The angel turns into woman in curl
papers and wrappers, with cold cream
on her face, and with temper and
nerves The hero becomes Just a man
who is fussy about his food, and close
about money, and who has to be jol-
lied and flattered into doing the
riage isn't dream. 1t is stern real
ity that is strewn with more tacks
than roses.
The revelations of the day after are
unbearable to those who do not love.
They loathe and nate each other.
Ihey disgust each other, and they fly
from their home as from a place of
torment. But love still wraps its rosy
chiffon over the sordidness of do

woman who really care for each other
never see each other as they are.
me middle-aged man who still
thinks his wife beautiful; the mid
dle-aged woman who still begins
every sentence with John says"
These alone have found marriage
success.
Love Is essential to marriage be-
cause love alone enables us to make
tne' sacrifices demanded by mar
rage. 1t is so easy to do things for
those we love. 1t is SO hard to do
things for those whom we do not
care.
Every marriage requires eternal
sacrifice. There must be a continual
putting or another before ones self;
giving up of ones personal inclina-
tons, and desires, and tastes for an
others. And this is a daily crucifix-
.oh VI soul ana BODY unless one loves
the other one so much that one pre-
fers his or her happiness above ones
own.
1t Is because we only find happi-
ness In being with those whom we
rove; because 1t is only love that
makes US blind to the pecuiarities of
our husbands and wives, and because
1t Is only love that enables any man
or woman to forgive us our faults and
weaknesses. that love is essential in
marriage. DOROTHY DIX,

Inside of these hard outward layers

far away from the orange and lemon

every taste is so new that he goes in

ing delighted anew with the flavor
that rests upon his tongue after the
exterior of chocolate has been pene-

Says Love,
Only, Makes
Marriage
Endurable
Dorothy Die
Love Is Essential To Marriage Because Only Love Can
Bear The Disillusons, The Sacrifices And The Daily
Companionship Of The Same Person, Year After Year

"A man asks, why is love so essen
tial in marriage?'
Apparently love isn't essential to
marriage in Continental Europe,
human beings. In the Orient, where
the man never sees the woman to
whom he is married until he lifts her
veil after the ceremony, and where
wives are frankly bought as objects
de luxe or kitchen conyeniences, love
cuts no figures in matrimony.
Nor is love the dominant factor in
marriage in Continental Europe,
where marriage is a family affair
arranged for the uniting of two for
tunes, or for Strengthening social
position, and where the mans income
and the brides dowry are considered
of far more importance than the emo
lions they inspire in each other. With
them- love is the garnish on the
domestic dish. Nice, and pretty, and,
without doubt, giving an added relish,
but it has nothing to do with the
substantial quality of the food itself.
Truth compels up to admit that all
of these peoples who take their love
on the side, as it were, get along very
well without conjugal love. Further
more, perhaps because less Is expected
of marriage there are fewer divorces
among those who regard matrimony
as business proposition than among
those who believe that they will find
it an earthly paradise.
But love is essential in marriage
to us Anglo -Saxons because we are
sentimental, because we are romantic,
because, as race, we are neither sem
sual nor avaricious. and because Gus
tom has made us expect to find our
happiness and companionship in the
home instead of outside of it.
So the marriage of convenience is
not far us. We are not greatly di-
verified by playing with dressed-up
doll babies. Besides, our doll babies
scratch and bite. Also we wish our
domestic brand of kisses with some
kick in them, instead of being merely
flat duty.
Marriage, then, with us is the most
important thing in life. Compared
with it, being born is an incident of
no Importance, and death a mere
episode. 1t is the one big gamble in
which we risk our all of happiness,
of peace, of well being. And we win
out, or lose out, on our hearts.
For us there is nothing but love
that enables one to endure mat
rimony, to find in it JOY instead of
wretchedness.
There is nothing but love that
makes one hug his chains, and re-
gard his jail as the dearest spot on
earth. There is nothing but love that
takes the sting out of sacrifice, and
makes one feel it privilege to
spend ones life in toiling for another.
1t is only love that makes it pos
sible for us to ENJOY the daily COM
partnership of the same individual,
year after year.
The society of tho most brilliant
stranger bores us to tears If we are
him, and have unbroken doses Of his
conversation. After we have heard his
adventures, his pot stories, and ap-
plauded his epigrams we pray heaven
