THE SEATTLE STAR Sash Adorns Demure Frock ie returned BRIDE OF EIGHTEEN MONTHS WRITES ON DIVORCE DISCUSSION My Dear Miss Grey: “Who is to blame for the average divorce ?” x The arguments are getting pretty warm, aren't they? And) it does rehily seem silly to me, altho I'm afraid to say much for fear of getting “bawled out” by some of your readers, | but personally, I'd hate like the dickens to be in the shoes of some of them. ; I’m sure there would be less divorces if we would compro- mise a little more. We end all our little arguments that way. Of course, we haven't had so many because we have been om ied only 18 months, but it’s so much fun making up after | fussing. I hope we never have any serious ones that we can’t make all right with a kiss. I feel so sorry for poor “Eighteen Months,” who is so dissatisfied with married life after so a ye uvery one telis me marriec »© young, being short tell. I i te t only 18 when I took the vow, but what do the years matter? Was grown at the age of 15, due to having the care of a household of children and servants and an invalid mother; so when I was 18 I thought that really I was an old maid, so in- stead of keeping friend husband dangling, as I intended, 1} ‘let him take me and bring me way out West, away from /severyone. Am I sorry? 1 am not, as I hear the school kid- - say. : T’ve seen so much of unhappy marriages that I had solemn- ly promised myself that I'd never marry, because nearly all ‘the unhappy ones were the fault of the husband.
