Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

THE phrase falling in love" has universal allure.
4 To those who are young it holds especial
appeal and therefore is especially dangerous.
For falling in love is nothing but process of
nature, and human beings share it with all animal
life
Girls and boys generally believe that the throes of
tender passion they feel for another unusual
They are certain that the electric thrills which stir
them prove they have found their life's mate.
Very gently very carefully, they should be taught
that this not always true and that all young things
experience exactly similar emotions and that such
emotions are often transient.
Perhaps If we could impress this truth upon them
could save them from much misery
Yet firmly believe that it would be an evil thing
to teach the young to dtrust romantic love entirely
1t is over-condence in it that does most of the harm
II EAL love is an achievement. One seldom tumbles
IN into it as into ditch dug for unwary feet but
climbs toward it, sometimes through suffering and
pain. ItIs fine minging of spiritual and physical
affection and marriage can not be a happy state
without this balanced ration.
The adoescent boy girl is the most sensitive OF
being Parents and relatives who scott at their emo
tional upheavalS can do them unreasonable injury.
And one of the most vicious of adult traits is cur
desire to tease" youngsters about their love affairs
Sometimes jokes assail all the most sacred
sensibilties OF innocent hearts. We overwhem them
with sef-consciousneSs we destroy their dreams and
tumble down their air castles.
To make fun OF any youthful emotion marks us as
thoughtiess beings. For seriousness is the curse of
adolescence And if We would help our children, we
must approach their problems with the outward
seriousness they bring to them.
Furthermore It is no joke to fall in love at IT.
and the parent who regards it jest is likely to
lose the confidence Of his son or daughter.
