Photoplay (Jul - Dec 1933)

Photoplay Magazine for October, 1933 99 There are 7 Kinds of Love' 11 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5 1 I couldn't make believe about him for very long ..." There often follows, Carole says, Companionship Love. And that is the direct antithesis to the Love Emotional. The Companionship love is all friendship and no emotion. All prose and no poetry. All practicality and no passion. Love for companionship, she explained, is really friendship, but young people are so incurably romantic that they must attach the poor tired tag line of love to any relationship between the sexes. "THAD the Companionship Love too. He •*■ was a slightly older man. They usually are when they play this role. I admired him enormously. I liked everything about him. I liked his mannerisms and his manners, I liked his style. I liked his tastes, his hobbies, his friends, the things he did' and the way he did them. "He taught me things, lots of them. He opened doors to me. He brought out ' the best' in me. And — I would have been positively ill if he had ever kissed me. The thrilling ingredient that sets friendship on fire simply was not there. "There is, of course, the Maternal Love. I mean the maternal love of a woman for a man. In every love, I think, there is some element of the maternal, or there should be if the woman is a thoroughly normal woman. "But that is not what I mean now. I mean the love that is all maternal, that takes a man and makes a little boy of him, spoiled, dependent, indulged, forgiven all things. The love that assumes all of the responsibility for everything, takes all the burdens, makes all the decisions. "This is the love that usually comes to strong and dominant women for rather weakling men. "They become the mothers of these men. That is what they want to be. They are never attracted to men who are stronger and more dominant than they. "And this, also, happened to me. I seem to be giving a complete symposium of my love affairs. But I'm glad I have a symposium. Only by the process of elimination does a woman ever know what is real, authentic, true. " I fell in love with this boy. I tried to make him over. I wanted to replace his habits with other habits. I tried to find jobs for him, and when he had a job I kept it for him, or thought I did. "I tried to protect him from criticism and from unkindness on the part of other people. I finally discovered that he was as yellow as the yolk of an egg and that nothing I could ever do would improve him one iota. "This maternal love is, or can be, the most dangerous love of all, because it usually comes to strong women who crave children of their own, and when that woman marries her weakling mate and has children, and that craving is satisfied, he has served his purpose and shipwreck follows. " A ND now," said Carole slowly, "there is •*Mhe seventh love. The real love. My love for Junior. Junior's love for me." " Junior," I must pause to tell you, is Carole's name for Bill Powell. She said, when my look of inquiry and more than slight surprise appeared upon my face, "But I always call him Junior— didn't you know?" And isn't it too perfect for him? Junior! Just think of Bill, so suave and dignified and all the things he is, and then think of calling him Junior and you will appreciate the really divine humor of it, if I do say so — ! It's utterly NEW! Equalizer KOTEX I (Patent No. 1,863,333) gives 20 to 30% greater protection —gives new comfort and safety ** K OTEX, with the New Patented* Equalizer, brings 20 to 30% greater protection in its downy cellulose filler. Protection is more adequate but less bulky. It has Phantomized ends, concealing completely all presence of protection. Mere rounded ends are not enough, they must be flattened and tapered. An intimate explanation of the new Equalizer is given you on the direction sheet inside the package. Old advantages remain You wonder: will this give the same softness, the same absorbency as the Kotex I already trust and like so well? Yes! And the same disposability. It can be worn on either side with equal protection. And youv get these features, in Kotex, today, at a lower price than ever before. For extra safety During certain hours — in some cases even for two days — extra precautions are necessary. At such times, use Kotex Super Size. Have a box of both on your shelf. You will want to try the Kotex narrow adjustable belt . . . the final perfection in sanitary comfort . . . designed to give wearing ease such as has never before been possible. Why no sanitary pad can be "just like the new Equalizer Kotex" Yes, it looks simple, but this device took 2>a years to perfect. Imitations can be made, they will be made, but it cannot truthfully be said of any other pad that it is like the New Kotex with Patented Equalizer. ..and this is why: 1 —it took two and one-half years to perfect. O— a board of three hundred women tested it. 0 —medical authority of high repute checked their findings. ^,-*AND, the United States Government granted Patent No. 1,863,333 to protect it for use of Kotex, exclusively.
