''No."
The old woman looked 'out
across the ocean and for a
moment was silent. "Mine
did all of those things," she
said. "And if I only knew
where they laid him to rest,
I'd gather his bones in my
apron!"
That's the kind of love I
would wish for my daughter
some day.

Do you remember the of
song that used to be in on the
parlor organ entitled "Whe
My Golden Hair Has Turned
to Silver Gray?".Remem
• how the lovesick girl asks
her sweetheart:
Will you kiss my'furrowed
brow?
d talk about what kind of wed -
cling she will have too, and I
n don't doubt but what she
may call me a Scrooge when
ber I suggest, as cautiously as I
can manage, that she might
waive the traditional big
wedding in a �flower-
splendored church, with
ushers trying to look at ease
in rented jackets, a profes-
sional singer in the choir loft
and every female in sight
rustling and flapping in more
finery than they will be able
to pay for in the next six
months.
To say nothing of the re-
ception which must be held
afterwards in the swankiest
place available, with place
names at the table and
speeches. Plus free drinks
all around and an orchestra
for dancing after the minis-
ter goes:
I think that the modern
extravagant wedding is a la-
mentable institution - in-
deed I think it often comes
perilously close to being
pagan. And I'd like to treat
myself to a little argument
sometime with those clergy-
men who, if they don't ac-
tually encourage it, accept it
meekly and with smiles.
What is so uncouth about a.
quiet little ceremony out on
the front lawn after the old
man has clipped it clean,
with the minister waiting
under a home-made bower el
flowers that the younger kids -
have picked that morning;
and with a yard full of neigh-
bors come to hear the
promises and help with the
tea and sandwiches after-
wards?
Just let the bride tremble.a
little with sober contempla-
tion of the words she is about
to repeat, rather than with
any worry about how she will
look in the papers, next day.
Let her look upat her man
with faith, hope and love„.,
and let him look back with '^
the same: Let him offer her
his shoulder when she tries
to say goodbye to her mother
afterwards, and has to cry,a
little. Let me see ,that in a
wedding and I'll think it
proper enough.
I realize of course that
when the time comes, my
daughter may not see eye to
eye with me on.this matter of
weddings at all. Social pres-
ures are pretty important to
us all these days, and youth
s' particularly sensitive
bout being different. All
ight then, I'll settle for any
nd of a wedding - and try
pay for it - if only I can
have some assurance that
is girl of mine is mature
enough to realize that the
an she is about to take for
tter or for worse is certain
seem worse sometimes
ter she really gets to know
m. That the sweet delirium.
f ,courtship is bound to
vaporate; that romance
d love are by no means the
me. That she had yet to
earn the full meaning of
ve. Only after she has suf-
red the disillusionment and
hed a few secret tears in the
ght will she know it.
Right now I am thinking of
story I once heard of an
cident which happened:_
oard a passenger ship
1 Will you love me then as
now?
well you're damn right he
won't. And I think that the
sooner today's lovesick
swains and damsels realize
that, the better it will be fbr
the future of their marriage.
And our poets could do the
whole race a genuine service
if. they'd write less about the
undying passion of love and
its alleged imperishability
and give us a few more
down-to-earth couplets about
raising twins and triplets,
and wiping up the driplets,
,and some of the other hard
facts of married life that
must be expected if love is to
survive its original blush -
pink froth and mature into
the calmer, less colorful kind
of relationship that will last
till
the final al turn of the road.
When comes her time I
want this last daughter of
mine to know that in spite of
all the poetry, she isn't al-
ways going to be the queen in
a garden of roses. That there
will be little brats with.no
sign of royalty at all in-
serting themselves into the
picture. Let the gentle people
call them little rivets in the
bonds of matrimony`if they
will, but they still mean new
troubles, and a new budget to
balance.
She should know too that
her mother and I aren't the
only married people who
argue. Men and women are
supposed to argue, and
one
Capra. of the reasons why they get
married is so they won't

Canada somewhere around
the turn - of the century.
Aboard this vessel were
quite a number of emigrants
who were about to make a
new life in a new country, -
and amit ngst these was a
young. Scottish couple who
were so recently wed that the
bride still wanted to monopo-
lize her husband every hour
of the day.
As for the bridegroom
however, some of love's halo
had slipped down a little
carelessly over one eye, and
he had got into the habit of
leaving his wife to her own
devices once in a while so
that he could join in a little
card party with some of the
other young men he had met
in the saloon.
Now it happened that on
such an occasion when he
had quietly slipped away to
be with the boys, his ardent
young bride began telling
her tale of woe to an old wo-
man who was sitting all
alone on the sun deck. This
other
woman was
a widow,
and when the younger
woman told about her hus-
band's faults and his selfish-
ness, she listened very
sympathetically. Then, when
the lament was over, the old
lady asked.
"Aye, and does your man
ever beat you?"
The young woman's an-
swer was a little shocked.
"No indeed he doesn't!"
