when Civilized ‘and Natural Laws Conflict, How Cali Boy or Girl Tell Best Time to Marry? How Much Does a Child Owe itsyParent?

Dear Miss Dix-As far as Nature is concerned, the normal mating time is when girls are about i8 and boys are about 20. _'I‘l'lo law says “certainly, but you must get married first.‘ But very few young people at this age are financially fitted ior founding a. home and starting a fanally. Experience also shows that marriages contracted at such an early age. rarely turn out successfully. There is something radically wrong where there is such a sharp con- flict between natural laws and tlle laws and con- ventions of civilization. How can this wrong be rigllted, or how can this conflict be avoided?

The tragedy oi divorce ior s man is that he loses his children u much as ii they had died, because they grow up strangers to hiln, domin- ated by their mother's influence and taking her'point of view of the separation.

But even i! the financial end oi the early marriages could be arranged and parents were able to support their children and their children's children until they got on their feet, the very young marriage is buying years oi misery for a brief span oi happiness.

For willie boys and girls oi 18 and 20 may think they are in love and that they have found their mates, experience proves that this is rarely the case. , '

Cali love is not the sort that endures the test of the years. Young

shoulders sag under the weight oi the responsibilities they have taken

too early. Tastes change in people as in food or clothes, so that the in- - divldual who fired ones fancy when one was sweet and 20 may bore one

to tears when one is sophisticated and 30. Worse still, when boys and girls

marry before they have really grown up they rarely develop along the

same lines. Almost always one outgrows the other, and there is no

tragedy greater than that of the lonely. man or woman bound for life to
