nous in the hearts of the young and the last
day of May is hardly marked off the calendar

And it is high time, too, that youngsters re-

rage is far more than guaranteed companion

far than an inevitable climax to pro-

Next to the dedication of ones entire being to
the religious life, marriage is the most impor-
tant VOW two people can assume.

Johnny had better ask will Mary be a suit

herself to raising them in keeping with Chris

of the second war.
Thousands of men sit home

while in the services.
All the gripping, all the COM

ship slipping from under. the
dull pounding of bombs, the re-
