Elizabeth Bacon Wailing, “advanced,” fore a fashionable women’s club in New York and pleaded for divores She is of the opinion that marriage should end when love dies, and that the getting rid of objectionable wives or husbands should be made easy instead of diMcult. Her talk was very frank, and contained some logic. She waid that love can never be regulated by law or controlled by human will The man who truly loves a woman would continue to love her if all the laws pertaining to marriage were sept away. And the woman who enthron- ed & Man in her heart would ling and care ond worship as sincerely it the only tie that bound her to the man was love All very true. But the neceasity of law arises from infractions of law, and law ts supposed to be only another naane for liberty Penitentiartes are built for criminals, not for honest peopte. ‘The statute that provide for Mining or imprisoning drunkards was the logical reault of drunkenness, and the divorce laws, patchwork though they are, were inaplred by the acts of those who made marriage & mockery. Bitaabeth Bacon Walling pieade for complete Hberty ‘The world isn’t ready for It yet. It peeda to be restrained. A few can Hive the life beautiful—the many are still human and full of the im- pulses of wrong--the errors of natural weaknema, ‘The marriage and divoree laws are the logical products of the progress of humanity. No one mind formed them, As civilleatian pro- greaxed, the desire of the more mo part of the world to protect the homes and the children, grew. Abuses suggested laws, Nobody wanted to make marriage « burden or married tife @ bell, But the ides is, and always has been, t© make the union of & man and a woman more than & jent-—something to be entered into after thought, with the knowlndge that § was for life; a responsibility well as a joy. Some men and some women who wére married were not Mt for tt. Love was Killed. It was better for society and fow them that there should be legal separation Ad so divorce laws came into being. ‘The theory of marriage and divgrce saws deals with the good of soclety, not for the pleseure of individuals, These laws may be crude; they are better than they were. When humanity le ready for more of trust and less of law, it will come, in the line of progress. it you please, arose be- tree night.
