. ‘The jdeel marriage is just as much a myth in Paris as it is in Bird Center, Ia. “They married and lived happily ever afterward" is the fairy-tale end’ of a romance that ls as Pure 116N011 1n N01‘- way as it is in Florida. Women who are Patient Grlseldas and men who arc domestic Darbys are produced by no particular race. Taking it by and large. American men and American women are just as good, kind, faithful husbands and wives as ex- ist anywhere. Yet foreigners for some reason seem to make a go of marriage oftencr than we do. Or

perhaps they endure it with more fortitude. Anyway, they have no local

Renos, and there are not so many broken homes and half-orphaned little

ahildren among them as there are with us. _

Now it seems to me that there are several good explanations of why we lead the world in the number of our divorces. The basic one is racial. We are an adventurous people, sprung from forbears who were hot-headed and hot-blooded, impatient of restraint and who, when they found old bonds gelling, had the courage to break them and fare forth in search of aomething more to their liking. They had none of the martyr com- plat that suffers and is strum. Theirs was no patient endurance of long- drawn-out misery. They were all for quick and drastic action that would give at least a chance for better things.

Undoubtedly, we have brought much cf this pioneer spirit into mar- riage, and it is what prompts us to move on, so to speak, and hunt for a. more congenial mate when We have made a mistake in the selection of our lift partners, instead of settling down into the dull acceptance of an un- happy union as more disciplined people do. You hear this ideal cf mar- riage expressed every day in the phrase, "Well, I'll try anything once," which is the gambling attitude that many mcn and women take toward the holy estate, and oftener than not whenyoungsters discuss marriage they will frankly declare that if they don't like it, they won't stick it.‘

Furthermore, they feel themselves just as much justified in this atti- tude toward marriage as their parents were in emigrating to America in the first place, or for answering the call to go west, young man, in early days, or for giving up some uncongcnial job and striking out to seek their fortunes.

But, of course, the chief reason why divorce is so common among us h because we Americans are the most sentimental people on earth and demand the most of marriage and more of our husbands and wives than any one else does. In rctttlit , wedemand the impossible bccause we ex- pect marriage to be a pcrfcct institution, and for our husbands and wives to be godlings and angels, and when we find out that the marriage re- lationship has a thousand faults and weaknesses, and that it is full of trials and tribulations and calls for endless sacrifices, and that we are married to mere human men and women, with human weaknesses and in- consistencies and cantankcroushesses, we are all too prone to throw up our hands and quit.

We are not content to accept marriage as the best method yet devised for the perpetuation of the family, and to keep it a going concern as long as the two partners work together for the prosperity of their home and children. We demand that in addition. it bc a. paradise on earth, a never- ending romance in which the husband and wife just bill and coo and thrill at each others footsteps for forty years at a stretch.

And when this miracle doesn't nappen and marriage settles down into being humdrum domesticity, filled with the darning cf socks and the cook- ing of dinners and the bringing home of the pay envelope. and kisses that are flavored with ham and eggs, we call it a failure, and only too often break up the home for no better reason than because it doesn't come up to our adolesc ‘ dreams.

The American man is celebrated as the world's blue-ribbon husband. 'l‘hat is true. but he is a shrewd bargafner and for all he gives he gets his money's worth. No other hilsbnxid gives as much to his wife, but no other man demands as much of hcr.

The men of other countries are satisfied if their wives have one out- Qanding virtue-if they are beautiful, or fashion-plates, or brilliant, or

Nor are American wives any more reasonable in their demans upon their husbands. They expect their husbands to be combination gogetters and gigolps, and they feel themselves mistreated and neglected when the men toywhom they are married do not supply them with every luxury and yct keep up an ardent line of fi y lovemaking.

In no other country in th. d would a sane woman give up a kind and generous husband, who was u good provider, because he expected her to take his affections for granted and failed to keep up an lm ssioned wooing. Yet thousands of American women break up their homes for no other renson than that they are married to dumb Romeos.

So it is because we are adventurous, because we get a kick out of the love chase, because we are always expecting to find that rara avls, the perfect husband or wife, and because we are not reasonable, or patient, or long-suffering that We get so many divorces. DOROTHY DIX.

CONVERTED RIGllT-HANDER OMEN BECOMES STAMMIIRER. Kettering Education‘ Committee

London, Eng. has forbidden its tea-

chers to stop left-handed children

from using the left hand for writing and other manual work. This has been done in consequence of a re- port by Dr. c. B. Hogg, the meidcal ofllcer, whose attention has been directed to certain cases of stam- merlng. The inquiries revealed that

a number of these cases were left-

handed children who had been con-

verted to writing with their right hands.

Dr. Hogg cited facts showing that of 41 left-handed children who were compelled to use the right hand 24 became stammerers. In a further case 12. right-handed children were trained to use the left hand, and within flve months all developed a stammer.

Cottage Cheese Simple to Make

Cottage cheese h at its belt in the early summer and is a delisht- ful addition to the summer menu. There are so many attractive Ways to serve it and it combines so read- ily with appetizing food accesso use that it is a favorite standby with many clever housewives.

Cottage cheese may be made at home and it's an excellent way t° use milk when it sours. U yo“ 301' low the rules carefully you can't help but have successful results and the cheese will be- most delectable- Because it is the protein part of the milk, cottage cheese will take the place of meat or eggs for luncheon or supper or the picnic meal.

Simple Directions

‘Thick curdled milk that has sour- ed quickly is the best foundation for a good quality of cottage cheese and while there are several ways of mak- ing the cheese, perhaps the follow- ing is the easiest:

Place the bowl containing the thick sour milk into a large pan of not water. Never let the milk be- come more than "blood" heat. T00 high a temperature toughens and hardens the curd. Let stand until thorough separation takes place- Then pour into a large square of double cheese-cloth placed over a colander. Gather up the four cor- ners of the cheesecloth and hang up to drain. Let it drain until the curd is firm and all the whey is drained out. Remove from cheese- cloth to a bowl and beat with a. fork, adding cream, either sweet or sour. to make the mixture of the right consistency. Add salt to “taste" us- ually about ta teaspoon to two cups cheese.
