I'm my view" she writes. there
is no excuse for the parents whose
son is unable to be responsible for
his own life when he is old enough
to marry. For twenty years at least
that parent has been ohstructing his
child's natural development. He has
denied his son the human rights Of
real life, of liberty inseparable from
responsibility. and of pursuit OF hap
piness with all the disasters ineVit-
able to that pursuit. 80. -.--.-,.
II hope my boys will marry young.
If. after the age of twenty, they are
carrying financial responsibilities
too heavy for their strength, / hope
to be able to give them the same
help-in college or in marriage
that / would give any human being
in the same circumstances. And on
the same basis, consider it an in
suit to an adult human being to Of
fer to 'subsidize' him. And if my
boys are not adult human beings
when they are twenty years old,
then l have shortened their lives as
much as if l had cut them short with

McEVOY URGES PARENTS TO
HELP CHILDREN MARRY
But Rose Wilder Lane Says @Chil.
dren should NOt Marry


The old but ever new question OF
whether parents should help their
children marry before the children
are financially able to support a
home is the subject of a lively areu-
ment between two famous authors
J. P. McEvoy and Rose Wilder Lane
i'm the current issue of Woman's
Day magazine.
Should parents help their chill
dren to marry?" asks Mr.. McEvoy,
and then proceeds to convince you
that they should. THAT would sound
pretty silly to our forefathers-and
certainly no one ever accused them
of coddling their offspring. But we
spoil our children-sO we are told,
We Overfeed them, overpet them, Ov-
ereducate them, overproteet them,
up to point-and then we kick
them right out on their faces. We
drop them from whatever limb we
happen TO be on, like a monkey
dropping a stick that he's tired of.
SO you want to get married. eh? we
say-'WeH,. go ahead. but don't ex-
pect any help from us One can for |
give the puzzled look on the young |
ster's face at this point. If ever he
needed help he needs it now. In
fact, he needs 1t now more than ever !
he needed It before. 49,.
1.-The farmers boy could and did
earn his keep almost from the time
le could walk. But your boy and my
BOY fresh out of college is a man in
Years but a child in experience He
las never done a mans work. and he
s not equipped to take a mans
,lace-but yet he is a man. It's not
IFS fault that he hasn't worked; it's
lot his fault that he hasn't earned
lis own living. and it's not his fault
hat he's a man and in love"
Not blaming the boy who cannot
upport a family but who wishes to
ret married, nevertheless, Mrs. Will
Ter puts the responsibility squarely
