| SCOLDS AMERICA ABT MARRIAGE, ~ LOVE, VE, NORE ba, Vata Declares American Women Never Marry for Love. AN APOSTLE NEEDED. So Is a Thunderbolt and the! Dramatist Hopes It Will Come. American wise for love. ‘The self-supporting American woman neve: marries at all. And if she ccs marry she never has any child-en. Ati of which are the cheery conclu- sions of Cosmo Hamilton, the young English dramatist who wins further claim to consideration through bis new | @: Out-) and hotly discussed novel, * post of Eternity."" Mr. Hamilton is a vigorous protest against the and disenchantment into which the good oM fashion of marriage has lapsed. And Mr, Hamilton himself is @ walking, talking protest against this particular laxity. He wears the Soclalistic blue shirt and unstarched collar, his hair ts Soclalistically long, he has the Fabian trick of taking himself serlously—and yet he roundly denounces H. G. Wells et al. as “talking through their hats” ‘orse than foolish—mad!"* NM like to start a crusade * he exclaimed, when the interviewer asked him how he would improve the decadence he deplored. “Something's got to be done. Some- body's fot to wake you people up. You're not really a country yet, you here in America, and you never will be if you don't call a halt and realize how you're shirking your jobs. WE NEED AN APOSTLE OF MAR- RIAGE. “Really some great apostle ought to rise among you, some apostle of mar- flage as it used to be, marriage as it ought to be, simple and sane and in- evitable. You ought to have the idea of{t hammered into you, in your books and playe and politcal speeches. It ghould be taught in your schools, as Uttle children you should realize the Gignity and beauty of the estate. I would get hold of your great bodies of women, of your suffragists"— “But don't you know," ke was inter- rupted, “that one of the rejoicing pacans of the suffragists is that woman has Aiscovered that there's a great deal in the world for her besides marriage?” isn't that rot!’ he excluimed frankly. “Tho glorification of the old maid! ‘That's what we're coming to, that's where we already are. Of course there is work which can be done by women ‘who are not wives and mothers, But let the superfuous women do ft, They'll always exist, the women who are not attractive, not desired. Give them thelr chance at the ‘business positions.’ Don’t farce these on the women who might be oing something better; don't let these women themselves mistake their real duty to the State.” “But would you have women marry, willy-nilly, without love?” “Of course not; but with a natural, nérmal education and up-bringing, why ouldn't love come? Will you tell me bi ‘on earth ts to prevent !t? Women are not marrying for love n@w. When they take husbands It Is tovget away from home, to get thelr fingers into a deepr pocketbook, to be able to give bigger dinners and dances. The obvious proof that this is true les is) in-the fact that the self-supporting woman who has already won her way out of the home to independence rarely marries at all. “Bhe sees nothing in it for her, And if by any chance she does associate her fortunes with some man she doves Iit- erally that, nothing more. There ts no true marriage, no true home, for she will not have children. She and her equally business-like partner come to the conclusion that {f they pool thelr salaries and thelr efforts they will ‘get on’ faster. But children would hinder rather than help the ‘getting on.’ Ae ‘a mother the woman would have to give up her position and her good salary, while the money that might be spent in dining influential people and paying the rent of the expensive but fashionably- located flat would go in baby clothes and perambulators. LgSS MOTOR CARS AND MORE CHILDREN, “An this talk about not being able to afford children is such absolute hypoc- risy! Mr. Hamilton broke off vehem- ently. ‘What does {t actually mean? ‘That the father and mother must go to the theatre less frequently, buy fewer new clothes, give up a motor car. Some- times the particularly specious pretense fs made that deprivations must fall on the children and therefore it would be etter for the poor little things not to be bom, or for one child to grow up without the Immense social diecipline of brothers and sisters. But it's good for children to struggle and give up things, It makes the right eort of men and rwomen of them, “The trouble with the comparatively few American children of this genera- tion fa that they have too much money, many advantages. And how does It affect them? Look for the great figures among your sons of rich men and you will not find them, And their daughters, on the avenue, the painted, bejeweled, sumptuously clothed iittle girls—what ts there of greatness or goodness among them? Oh, it’s the sons and daughtere of the poor who come into the richest heritage of life! “IT seem to see you Americans,” Mr. Hamilton added, half dreamily, “hurry- ing helplessisyalong, like @ procession of mutes at a ¢ feral.
