The so-called “ideal marriage” has never been laid down by any for- mula. It just happens. But it is no dificult matter to ascertain the happy average as to this partnership. This happy average points to a few truths that have borne the test of time, Bome of them are: Don't look for the love at first agit to last a lifetime, The marriage after thirty is the one that rarely finds its way to the divorcee court, Eighteen and twenty-three look with eagernas at the love in the cottage, but often OVPRLOOK the wolf hovering around the door.
