CORRESPONDENT asks: Are
second marriages as a rule
I happier than first?" 1t is i'm
\ possible to answer that cues


ton definitely because there Is no way
to tell which marriages are happy and
which are mere endurance tests. There
are no statistics on the subject to guide
US unless they be found in the fact
that more first marriages end in di-
vorce than do second marriages. But,
to the casual observer, when widows
and widowers remarry, they seem to
get along more peacefully and har-
moniously with their second mates
than they did with their first.
OF course according to all senti-
mental tradition, a first marriage
should be the closest approach to
heaven that any one ever makes on
earth. 1t Is wreathed in all the glamor
Of romance. and starry-eyed with all
the dreams and hopes and illusions
of youth, and 1t would seem that such
a marriage must have a thousandfold
more chances Of happiness than that
Of the couple who come to the altar as
repeaters and can bring nothing to the
wedding feast but warmed-over ro-
nance and rehashed affection.
RUT, in reality. the very things that
seem the disabilities of the sec
ond marriage are its chief assets. For
they are experience and knowledge,
and they count for as much in mar
riage as they do elsewhere in life,
and many man and woman make a
success of their second marriages just
because they made such a mess of
their first ones. Through suffering
and self-reproach they have realized
the mistakes they made in their first
marriage. Many a pampered second
wife and many a spoiled second hus-
band are unknowingly collecting con-
science money for the way their mates
treated their first wives and husbands.
There are, of course, many explana-
tions to be offered for why second mar
riages are generally happier than first.
One is that those who have been mar
ried do not expect so much of marriage
as those who have never tried it. They
don't expect 1t to be an Elysium, in
which a fairy princess, who will re-
main forever young and beautiful and
clothed In chiffons that will never wear
out, will meet them upon their return
from work with a glad, sweet smile
and lead them upon a banquet that
will never be paid for. They know that
marriage is full Of bills and ills and
temper and unreason and little ways
that get on a mans nerves, and still
for all that it is worth all 1t costs.

A ND 50 the man and woman who
marry q second time take mar
riage "as is' and make the best of it,
and thus they escape the awful dis
illusion and letdown that comes to the
young husband and wife when they
discover that marriage is a working
partnership instead of q dream walk
ing and that they have married mere,
ordinary, faulty human beings instead
of . cinema hero and heroine.
Those who have been married before
have the inestimable advantage Of en-
tering marriage a second time as por-
fessionals instead of amateurs, and
hence they have Q double chance of
winning out in 1t. The man knows
from previous experience that no
woman has the ability to conjure
groceries, rent. coal. gas and clothes
out of the air, so he is not shocked and
horrif1ed, axcthe inexperienced BRIDE

WHAT Is the matter, Toby" He

"WHAT is the matter Tooy?' He
hit me-"
Really? Here is cookie for you.
Here is another one for Hunter
But he hit me"
TOO bad. Better eat the cookie y
Toby hesitated moment, thought
we'll of the idea and took a bite as
he went on his way calling, 20. Hun
ter. Here's a cookie for you. It's my
turn to ride now
Hunter got of the velocipede, ac-
cepted the cookie and stood by MUNICH
ing cheerfully while Toby had his ride.
The last crumb licked off, he returned
to business. My turn. You get of and
let me ride" Toby got off. slowly, but
he got of, and Hunter mounted. He
took his round up and down, and
then rode on a second trip.
Mother! Hunter won't give me
my turn
This time mother came out, waited
for Hunter to return and said, whose
turn Is it, Hunter?"
It's Tobys now I only just went
for a little ways extra to make up
for him. He took extra last time,
too"
All right Take turns and play
fair" and mother went back. She
knew that she would have to 60 out
and in few nicre times during this
paytime, but she knew also-and
that made it eaSier-that this was
the way three years played with three
wears. They have little understanding
of any person outside their own skins.
They are not to be called selfish be-
cause they behave without thought,
by instinct. They have not developed
an understanding of another's feel
ings. They live in the minute, within
themselves. We have to stand by and
move them along the road Of growth
by touching them here and pushing
them there.
Little children of this age hit each
other. Let them settle their own
battles as long as they have no
weapons except their hands. They
will not hurt each other much and
they will settle much of their dificul-
ty. They are experimenting with
each other to find just how their
worlds 60, and if in the process one
slaps the other, don't say a word
about it, don't take any notice of it.
One child can slap knowledge into
another faster and with surer faith
in its sticking where it was put, than
any grown person can ever do. The
slapping stage passes when the more
complex stage of reason begins TO
show. These elementary experiences
are the forerunners of reasoned be-
havior.
Whatever you do don't rush out and
slap the other child. A slap from
a grown-up person is altogether diff
ferent in its meaning and its effects
than the slap given one child by an
other. Keep out Of these Squabbles, ex-
pect them to come and go; stay in
the background. Only when bitter
struggle is on between two friends,
each of whom wants the kiddie car
or the velocipede, should you emerge.
Then you move as gently and i'm
personally as possible to assure the
early settlement Of the war.
Children will not play nicely with
each other until they reach the age of
reasoned behavior, of cooperation.
Until then they are doing nicely as
long as they let each other reason
ably alone.

These cool Midsummer costumes

was a billowy white net on which are
