Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-07-02

ION NETTING new in
- schools-a place where
- you can learn the all
embracing art OF love-was
recently opened in London.
The idea behind ii Is to
teach young, aged
couples how to get along
with each other so that
their marriage will not be-
come a comedy of Eros.
The faculty of this I'M
usual institution is made up
of doctors, psychologists,
clergymen and welfare
workers. These teachers
lecture 10 the young people
on the marital problems
they will have to face.
One Of the principal ideas
behind the plan is TO keep
people who are not suited
10 each other from entering
the state OF matrimony. The
theory is that If a young
couple seriously looks into
wedlock by studying il to-
ge.her, they will soon dis
cover whether they can
make a go of IL or not.
Part of the course is 10
talk everything over with
the teachers. These experts

are very frank. II they
think their charges will not
be able 10 get along, they
bluntly tell them so.
Give him back his ring"
is the advice generally doled
out to a girl If the faculty
thinks the planned union
can't click.
Love, according TO these
people who know, is the
only game at which two
can play and both lose. The
main idea is to teach all
the rules so both can win.
Since classes started, more
than 500 couples have be-
come pupils. Because of its
success. the Marriage Guild
'ance Council. sponsors of
the idea, plans to open a
chain of such schools
throughout Britain.
When. in the opinion of
the faculty, a couple is
suited 10 double harness, a
"first-class certificate" is
issued TO them. The founders
of the school hope that
some day such certificates
will be necessary before
couples in England can go
10 the altar.
