Peril of Misfit Nuptials

Too Many Wed Hoping to Oliangs Mates Despite Failures of Others

i

Getting married is the most important act of our lives. for on how it turns out degvnds our happiness. our prosperity and our health. yet it is the only thing we do in which we pick out one thing when we want and need scmeiliing entirely different. No man would in- vest his all in a fancy limousine if he expected to do heavy hauling with it, nor would any playboy buy a truck in which to go joyriding. _, , _ Yet every day we see otherwise intelligent people marrying women and men who are totally unfittod to be the kind of wives and husbands they desire. We see highly cultivat- ed men marrying girls who have never read anything but the society and beauty columns in the news- papers. Domestic men marrying girls who are allergic to the kitchen and whose idea of perfect bliss is to spend all their evenings in night clubs. Men who need wives who will be working partners with them marrying sickly. neurotic girls who will be nothing

but a doctor's bill.

INCONGRUOUS MATCHES

And we see girls who want sec-

urity in marriage blithely stepping to

v the altar with drunkards. We see

“ " jllFlS who want husbands they can

trust marrying philanderers. Girls who want husbands who can give

them good homes and a comfortable living marrying lazy, no-account,

IIFQI-dC-WFIIB who have let their mothers take in boarders to sitpport them.

‘And as we observe these misfit marriages, and perhaps reflect upon our owii. we wonder why they did it; why the bookish man didn't marry

bu sh ivoiiiaii; 3 the man who loves to eat didn't pic

ook: why the girl who wanted a good provider didn't ' ". and so on? For none of these matrimonial candidates .. ' deceived the party of the other part. They didn't put on an act. They didn't try to camouflagve their faults, and any man or woman who wasnl stone blind could see what he or she was getting.

The explanation is that somehow, someway, every man and wt;- man iherisli the delusion that they are miracle-workers who can, as the old proverb goes, make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. They have seen hundreds of other people try it and fail, but it hasn't shaken their fliiih in their ability‘ to turn the tri k.
