YOUNG MARRIED COUPLE LAUGH
AT UNCLE TOM'S PERPETUAL
couRTSHrr plan
BY CYNTHIA GREY
Tiro people fn Seattle have very decuted views on this per
petual courtship plan and they were riot slotr in coming to
bat icith thf~m. They hare b«en happily wed for over three
years, and ramict imagine a couple living apa't in order to
remain m love.
This perpetiuil courtship plan, which was jyroposed tn the
readers yesterday by a correspond cut signing himself Uncle
Tom, as the solution of the divorce question, has received a
stunning bL*rv dealt by this married couple.
What is your opinion/
Follotring are the letters:
Hoar Miss Grey: When my husband unfolded The Star
this eveninp aftor dinner, pivinjr me your section of the
paper, and buryinjr himself in the sport page. little did 1
dream what a laugh \v:is in store for me.
It was over the first letter in your column, signed Uncle
Tom. and propounding the theory of perpetual courtship ius
a cur*' for divorce. The farther I read, the funnier the idea
seemed to me, until I simply roared at the finish.
Hubby left his sport papre and came over to discover the
joke. When he read the letter he laughed until the tears
rolled down his face and then said: "We will sit right down
now and write Miss Grey what we think of this perpetual
courtship plan before some of these futurist freaks beat us
to it and get the lead in the discussion."
So here we are. Mlaa Grey'
I'ncle Tom aays, "Continued asso
ciation In a treat * •«r on wedded
love." and suggests! that huahand
and wife live apart and only vlalt
one another on Invitation. He rites
an example, which I suppose he be
lle vea to be common in every home
—poor man. we will forgive him aa
he la a bach
He picture* an Irate husband re
turning home from work, roaring at
hta wife because dinner la not ready
and the house not In order The
wife, never taking her eye# from the
book ahe la reading, sarcastically re
fers him to the cook which he hlre.l.
This la not the existing condition
In our home and we have been mar
ried over three years now. and It la
not like that In the homes of ray
girl friends. Maybe, tho, It la be
cause we are all thrifty young peo
ple buying homea and feel that we
cannot afford the luxury of a ser
vant.
At four-thirty every day I put a
coverall apron over my afternoon
frock and sojourn to my little kitchen
to prepare our dinner and at five
forty-five It la all readv to pat on
the table when I hear my husband
fllwenng up to the garage. Me

Idas. Deaptta we have acted In this
manner every blessed day fo. hree
years. It never yet haa worn on our
nerve* We would Just aa soon think
at going without dinner aa to mlan
that greeting kla.«
After dinner. I do mv work while
hubby takaa his after-dinner nap or

Tuefolay evenings we always go

We visit extensively- with our

We never rft on one another's

Our Uvea are very full of work and
of pleasure and only tha other day
we agretid that we did not know
how we ever gut alone before we
were married. But. of rsurM, we
both married out of pure love Our
love haa Unproved our Uvea and aa

Tom speaks of. in the home of a
couple who really love one another.
The i'l' i of a hunhand and wife
each living In a separate home to
keep the ftrea of their love burning
brightly la so ludicrous that we
can't even Imagine It. We are sure
that those couples In the Kaat who
are trying this plan out do not love

Wi hope oil young people who ar*
