Big Reduction
An article on marriage by
Mr. H. G. Wells in Hearft’s
International Magazine is im-
portant because it states baldly
iml boldly the views of many
so-called Americans, as well as I
the views of some Europeans.
Mr. Wells says: “The Chris-j
linn marriage, like most mar-j
I'iage institutions in the world,
meets the needs of a peasant
life with passable success ....
But nowadays we live much
longer, we do not age so fast,
we learn quicker and mature
more rapidly and a new stage
opens and widens in life be-
tween the thirties and seventies
for which the institutions, tra-
ditions, sentiment and poetry
of the past cannot be expected
to provide a complete outline.
This is the stage, the new adult
stage, upon which the coming
order will b> built, and which
is being cleared of its encum-
brances of childish, youthful
and adolescent habits and feel-
ings and short, narrow views.
Mating and marriage and the
tearing of a family must stilj
be a part of this new life, but
only a phase of it. Our ways of
living are even more provincial
now than our governments.
Everybody does this or that to-
day which nobody will do to-
morrow. The change in man-
ners and morals, in customs
and conventions during the last
half century has been tremen-
dous, but it may seem nothing
before the changes of the next
half century. We are living
in the hectic last phase of an
order that is dying . . . .Change

infiltrating attack upon public
decency and the American
home, with a view to its de-
struction and the substitution
of the customs and ideals of
Babylon. Our women, who
have been taught to look upon
chastity and fidelity as cardi-
nal virtures, are being con-
stantly told that promiscuity
and infidelity of the moat
loathsome character indicate
freedom of spirit and power of
mind. We are getting this
miserable rot of cheap maga-
zines, in magazines which pro-
fess to be critical, in fetid
novels and in the theatrical art
of certain productions, to whom
all things are pure, even a
nacked girl in a bathtub con-
taining “ginger ale,” purity
which is hardly if somewhat
perverted appetite they absorb
in solution by the glassful.
Note this: that these people
hate America as it is. Their
utterances are rich with abuse
of the heritage received from
George Washington and his as-
sociates. It is they who assail
“Puritanism.” It is their “hu-
