Still the favorite time for, wed-
dings, the Merrie Month of June
repreSents. the' crisis, or :turning
poirit, in the- lives of hordes of
young people. ;It's, toolate. for
warnings,; this year, but perhaps
a word of: advice to . those who
have leaped into the quagmire
of marriage would not be amiss.
I wouldn't dream,; of offering
suggestions to. a singer. or, ' a
scientist. I ,woudn't be qualified.
But I, have no hesitation in speak-
ingright out about matrimony.
This September,; I shall have been.:
rej1bicing in •domestic bliss• for
fifteen ,yearss,' andI have the'
sears to prove it:
• Oh, they're not all, visible;
Although .I• didn't get that broken
nose5in, the' ring. My wife.:hit nu
with. a telephone. Nor is the
lump just. over my left ear, the
remaln"s. of . in old War wound.
It .was put there 'by a ' plate con-
taining ' roast beef,' Potatoes and
gravy, served directly from .the
stove, across '.a ten -foot kitchen:
.No, many of.. .the deepest
wounds are 'hidden ' ones.`.:,. They
lie in livid: stripes•, across: my
inner self, like, the welts. on th'e
'back of •a• freshly -flogged Sailor.
They: seem to, have ;labels Let'g.
see. what they., say. ' '
This one reads: "You're . abso'1-
utely ' useless • . as a 'father." And
this one: "Why. do :You hu'mtliate
me, like ` that. 'in• .'front .; of Four
friends?'� This .purplish .one here..
reads: "I'd have been a, lot .hap-
pier ' if I'a never. seen you."
'And this; One: "`Why • can' :.'you
,act :like ;a normal, human . being?"
• These are • the.- Old' scars that
thrdb whenever • the • storm clouds •
appear on our.' domestic horizon.
It is 'to' 'save. the neophyte from.
such wounds .that I' propose: to
offer ` a •. few. simple,. suggestions.
These will 'be ;for . men only.` WO -
men - not only. don't 'need any ad=
,vice, but •.won't ,take; it. They have
a builtin •conviction that what
ever they do or''say is ,right..

Now, if you realize that you
areout-gunned, you're off on the
right.:foot: What :do , we - do' when
we,`face superior. armament? We:
run? No,- no That's just the trou-
ble.. A lot ' of fellows who have
started running : in . the first
month of marriage have been `on

No, what we :do is out -manoeu-
vre' the . enemy.. We never risk . a
• frontal assault. We probe the
weak spots.. We deploy our for-
ces, We use stealth arid deception,'
guerrilla • warfare; hit-and-run
tactics. We place spies in the
enc ny camp:° • . . • '
A 'few examples. might , clarify
these basic rules.. How do we
probe the weak spots; forex
ample?,
Well, first we.. have " tO, find
them. • Every'. woman alive ' is
susceptible to flattery, and:eytery
woman is .born with ,,certainty
that • she has' impeccable taste.
Start from there. If you • can't,
bring yourself to offer a flatter-
ing remark about her dress, hair
or figure --I mean if she's a real
old bat= -praise her cooking, or
the way she slaps the kids Or
cud • thea lawn.
How do we 'deploy our forces?
Simply by never being. caught
without fresh reserves to draw
on, new positions to withdraw to.
If she says, "That's .your •third
beer, we' retort, ."Yeah; but I
didn't haves any yesterday," "We
never 'just 'answer, So what?"
This would be' risking everything
on.: a direct trial of strength. ,
Guerrilla warfare? This ; con-
sists ..of hitting the .enemy. when
�he i5 off balance,' or not looking,.
or' unprepared.' Preferably: from.
behind. :
° Tor example, you ' have done
all your: chores without a,. Whim-
per. You have kept the kids
strictly in line, You, have, tossed
her ' a couple of unsolicited com-
Aliments. And..you have just • pre,
rented• her with an expensive
gift on her birthday,or
Mother's
Day, or,.just (yuk), because.•you.
love her. •
N w' ou 'strike 'hard and 'true

with "We'll only be gone three
days." Even. a . wife can't cope'
with this 'guerrilla wife,
.:to
a . fishing trip •with; the.' boys.
Hit-and-run •,tactics require
little 'explanation. •You-' hit ';with
•the •thunderous •' ultimatum that
"ty George, /woman, it's ti7ne-
you learned the value of Money.",
Then . you . rim to` the .workshop
'
in the baseinent. You can se` the,
kids as' spies 'in the enemy camp:
• But, watch them. Like all spies,
they're treacherous, and' you,
might.: find they're, working for
both. sides
