Speaking of Happiness

n MARGUERITE CLARK, a famous and petite
1f1 star of the screen-the only real rival Mary Pick
ford ever hadhas written engaging little story about
how she found happiness. 1t was in brief when She
gave up her movie stardom, married Harry p Williams
in louisiana and settled down to raise-chckens dogs
and flowers.
Babies? Marguerite does not mention them as denti-
fled with her scheme of JOY strange say And yet no
normal woman has yet found the uness Of true happ
ness home has attained that completeness that its
name implies, until there babies to bosom and house
1t isn't mere sentiment that these words voice but it is
expression of that law of nature of which comes
motherhood, the greatest, lovelies thing in human
world.
The love of dog is fine, Marguerite and flowers make
fragrant and coorfu surroundings, but neither one nor
both can possibly supply the beauty and great happi
of life that it is given only woman to know and
feel in the flesh of her flesh-a baby.
