But nobody seems to be satisfied
with tranquility" these days.
What everybody is seeking in
marriage is a thrill! Which is
about as logical as going to the
Equator to find a snow storm,
or to a modern drug store to look
for medicine.
Thrills are monnentary things
marriage is permanent affair."
Thrills are surprises or shocks
but the fewer surprises and
shocks you get in marriage, the
luckier you are.
Thrills are Life's fireworks and
bonfires; marriage is the quiet,
comforting warmth Of a hearth
fire, the steady glow of an altar
fire.
Thrills are the high spots of
life. But you can't hit the high
spots ALL of the time, without
coming cropper or dropping
dead from exhaustion. There is
no such thing as a continuous
thrill, a perpetual emotion or a
nonstop JOY ride.
That is why compartments
marriage" is such bad joke. 1t
it based on the childish notion
that marriage is just a "sex-peri-
ment" in the search for one long,
nonstop thrill.

The result OF these changes Is
that each group becomes pre-

accompanied with the progressive
manifestations Of consciousness.
In the newborn child movements
are at first purposeless and ir-
regular and muscular contractions
take place without meaning. First

Brain and mind undergo parallel
development from infantile imma-

development falls to the lot of no

the moral progress of the human
