to to to to to to to to to TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 1945 POUGHKEEPSIE NEW YORKER PAGE SEVEN Marriage Romance Helps By Dorothy Dix A group of servicemen, in an interval of respite from turned -Aghting their at- on war front, have tention to the problems of debating the home the front, question and of whether romance is necbeen essary in would married life or since not. they ask Well. I say, that the answer is both yes and me. Romance in marriage is like fanno. on the wedding, cake.

It icing certainly does and pretty it up and and alluring, make It but look in the nature of things it doesn't festive gay last. It lacks substance and staying powers and, no in matter oiled how carefully and you put it on the shelf, in time it just wrap It up papers of dries up and flakes and sort is left but a few tasteless nothing crumbs that you chuck into the pail some day when you are garbace, good cleanup. Without Trimmings The thing that counts is the cake Itself, and if that is sweet with love, and rich with understanding, and flavored the spice of congenial. and has been cooked until it 1s Ity, well done in the oven of acquaintanceship, it doesn't mater whether It is covered with hearts and darts and roses and cupids or not. The husband and wife can, spend 30 or 40 years, nibbling never and lose taste for it.

Of course, If we had our choice in the matter. every blessed one of us crave romance in our marriages. There isn't a man wouldn't like to believe that he looks like a Fairy Prince to his wife. Nor is there woman who wouldn't give her eye teeth to have a husband who was under A permanent delusion that she was a Glamour Girl, and who her kisses that were hot with gave love instead of mere duty pecks on the cheek. But in the wear and tear of conlife, what with making a livJugal ing.

and paying off the mortgage, and having babies, and putting up with romance each otherowe faults and foibles, evaporates like dew on the rose. It may leave things thousand times more valuable behind -true and tried devotion, working partnership, gratitude and appreciation--but they are not the stuff of which dreams are made. The pity of it is that in this craving for romance so many men and women fail to recognize real love, and pass it by. They have been taught that love is a thing of thrills and chills and hectic fevers, and that because they are not bowled over at first sight of some woman or man and do not swoon at the sound of footstep. they conclude that they are not enough in love with the party of the other part to risk marriage.

Countless men and women are lonely bachelors and old maids because they falled to realize that the calm affection, the perfect companionship. and the happiness they had found being together ever since their mud pie days, was the very best. and truest love there is in the world What they were looking for was hysteria, and they were not temperamentally of the -throwing type. So there you are, boys. If your Girl Friend can cook you up a fancy wedding cake, fine.

But don't forget that bread is the staff of life. Released by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.)
