on his next leave and I know I could get a job near his camp on account of help being short everywhere. We figure it's now or maybe never, but my parents say that's an N.G. type of marriage. Wish you'd tell me which is right, us or them. . . ." I felt my cheeks flush hot as I bent over the letter. I knew now that he had just been following his usual practice of putting people off their guard so that they would say what was on their mind. But it somehow made me mad that he should use his methods with me. I said belligerently, "I've read it, Dr. Dale. Are you asking me what to answer?" He smiled his kindly smile that made my defiance seem silly. "Yes, my dear. Suppose you tell me." "All right." I kept my voice stout. "I'd write that girl to go ahead and take her marriage while she can." Oh, I was in for it now! Dr. Dale sighed and drew the letter back. After a moment he said quietly, "After all the examples you have seen here, Janice, of unnecessary trouble and pain caused by rash and thoughtless action, I am surprised that you can so blind yourself to your own good common sense." I held my lips tight shut, hoping he would stop if I did not answer. He waited a second and went on. "I have always thought that your intelligent young mind was learning and strengthening itself as we worked together here, so that you would be sure to build your own life upon the rules of common sense — " I CAN hardly describe the hypnotic effect of Dr. Dale's calm, confident tones. I suppose it was this magic that made him such a successful minister and gave him the audience of millions who listen each week to his broadcasts. I knew now that I didn't dare let him talk to me a moment longer or I'd be lost. I cried out, "Dr. Dale, don't you see that the old rules don't work any more? We've been using common sense for three years to build a foundation for our marriage. The result is that we have the foundation and no marriage!" "Better none than an unsound one," Dr. Dale said calmly. "I don't believe it!" I forgot caution and respect in my urgency. "We were meant to marry, or why did God give us the feelings that make us want to?" He smiled in a way that sobered me and stopped my wild outburst. "That's very eloquent, my dear, but not very mature. Love, like any plant, can grow best where the soil has been cultivated with conscientious care and knowledge. I know you will not want to give it less, when you have taken time to study the problem objectively." He dropped his voice in such a way that it put a period to the sentence and did not invite a reply. He picked up the letter and before I could think what to say he had started dictating. "My dear young friend," he began. "Be assured of my deep sympathy with your problem. I wish that I could give you the assurance that I suspect you want, to give support to your own emotional longings. But I am afraid I shall have to tell you that the position your parents are taking is based on more thoughtful experience of life than you may per NOVEMBER, 1942 (^/H^|u£ ROYLEDGE makes Qur kitchen look..
