ei mae A MAN WHO HAS BE HAPPILY FOR OV WRITES GOOD ADVICE TO NEWLYWEDS BY CYNTI Altho letters are still powring in on the subject of perpetual courtship, so many have already been published that many) of them are of similar thought, so the letters today will close the discussion. A number of readers have asked me for my personal opin- ton. The letter printed below contains so nearly the ideals I for me to try to express them ¢ As a last word I want to thank all of the hundreds of read- ers who so kindly contributed to invite you to all write again. Following is the, letter: Dear Miss Grey: I think fellow that has been advocating separate homes for man and “wife in order to perpetuate courtship and thus do away with the divorce evil. My position is such that I am constantly brought in con-| tact with this cancer that is eat ican home. The thing that breaks the hor the children unprotected on a cold world will in the end| wreck the country. What is the remedy? Well, separate homes and only call on invitation will not save the situation. Here is the remedy. only one. husband and wife. Scoff The thing He is the only Savior from all sin. My wife and I have been married for more than 30 years, and we do! More courting today than we ever| ai. We were both converted at the altar of the church before we as:/ sume@ the responsibilities of married life, and devoted our lives to the serv. tee of God and the church. Oh, and how it has paid us, dear young reader’ Goa has given us ftve children. He called the first one to Himself very early. The others are all with us, and we are a happy family While I am in the mood, please ; Grant me space to say just a word to a lot of folks that write you about their inability to save anything in these times of the high cost of living. Many of your correspondents ought to be ashamed of themselves ta con. fess that out of the income that Many of them have they cannot live decently on it, much leas save a Uitte Three years ago I bought a home fer $2,000, and borrowed the first $200 to pay down on it, and was to Pay $20 per month. My salary ts $125 per month, and that ts all the| imcome we have had, except only rea. | fonable board paid by my two sons who are working, and there are six ef us in the family. T paid the last $100 on that home ‘this week. | ‘We dress as good as the average, and that blessed little wife of mine! some food, well cooked and tastily| served, on the table... | In addition to that, we bave put a furnace in our house at a cost of| $140, and about $200 worth of furni-| ture. The house is kept like a par. lor from the basement to the attic; we thank God three times a day for | bis bountiful supplies; say our pray-| ers asd work hard. We are happy and contented, and have no desire to live in separate houses. When I get honte from the office this evening a devot wife will meet me with a warm kiss of love, a good supper well prepared, two sturdy boys will be home from their work with appetites all in order. | After supper we will water the lawn, work some in our nice garden, have some music, read the evening Papers, a chapter out of the Bibie and retire happy.
