Copyright, 1915, Interna’l At what age should a question that we girls discuss lot in the long hours in the studio when we are waiting our cue to go on in the plcture. And ft's & question that gris discuss a lot everywhere, for every woman has either been married, or is going to be married, or hopes to be ma ried, Some of the girls think it is just ter- ribly romantic to be married when you | are very young, while others think that a woman should put off marrying a long, 16ng time. The longer you put it off, the | better off you will be, some say, cynically. | I think % 1s the ideal age for a girl | to marry. She s then young enough to have all her ideals and enthusiasm still untarnished, and yet old enough to have come to herself. It is then that a woman can use both her head and her heart in plcking out a husband, :-and when she stands the best chance of making. a wise cholce. L do not believe in early marriages. No physically, or spiritually, to take upon her little weak shoulders all the respons- | ibllity of marriage. She is nothing but a | child, and she goes to pieces over situa- | tions that a grown-up woman could | handle without the slightest difficulty, | I am told that statistics show that three- fourths of the divorces are asked for by people who married when' they were very young. 1t fsn't surprising. What do a 'hoy and | ®irl know of the kind of wife and hus- band they will want when they grow up’ ‘Their tastes are changing every day, and the husband that a girl would pick out at 17 wouldn't any more fire her fanc at 2 than would the food, or the clothes that she pined for in her kiddie days. Tt seems to me that there are enough blood curdling risks in matrimony, any- way, not to take any chances on what | you are going to be, yourself, | and want when you come to man's and woman's | ostate, | Another reason why gisls ought not to | marry before they are 25 is that If they | marry when they are very young they cut themselves out of their girlhood, girl of 17 or 18 is fit, either mentally, or which is the one playtime of a woman's | 1t harder | a str life. And If she misses that, she goes through the world unsatisfied, hunting it. If you will notice, you will see that the middle-aged women who are mad about pleasure, who can hever get enough danc- Ing and running around to restaurants, | and Who are making eyes at every man they meet, are almost invariably women who married when they were young. On the other hand, If a woman waits to marry until she is well in the thirties, #he loses the pliability of youth, and finds to adapt herself to her band's ways. Also she has gotten the habit of indepéndence, and is accustomed to live her own life in her own way, and this makes for personal selfishness, which doesn't add to the peace and har- mony of the family circle, All of these reasony make it me that 2 s the ideal age for a girl to marry. Then she is old enough to know her own mind, but not too old to change it. She s still romantic, but not foolish, and she is readly to enter upon the buginess of life with a clear head and ng hand.
