“Adolescent love is an event," he
goes on. "Married love is a situa-

Undoubtedly it. is unreasonable
for women to expect as much as
they do irom love and marriage.
Without question it would be more
rational and sensible to conceive of
marriage as a state of glorified rnov
notony instead of a perpetual
thrill.
But in the interest of continuing
the institution of marriage and
carrying' on the race it is well that
they do not.
As women progress in feminism.
they become less romantic. As
their lives become more full of in.

Mrs. Stephen Bourgeois is substan.

Mrs. Bourgeois was an adopted

Her husband is the proprietor of

So she finds the time and the en-
ergy to carry on. Last winter she
gave two public dance recitals when
her younger boy was no more than
six i ionths old. She was forced. of
cour e. to undergo a long period of
training and rehearsal. In the com-
ing season she will give at least two.
and possibly many more.
Up‘ to her marriage Maria Ther-
esa's life was as full of adventure as
any modern girl could wish. As one
of leadora Duncan's girls she travel-
ed all over Europe, dancing before
Russian grand dukes and German
princes, being painted and modeled
by the artists and tasting all of the
glory of pro-war Europe. Later, she
traveled in the United States and.
during the war. she danced for sol-
diers in American cantonments. Yet
her marriage is to her the most in-
tercsting adventure of all.
"My home and my babies give me
greater happiness than I ever expe-
rienced before," she .says. “No
could take me away from them. But
I must dance. too. and no matter
how much effort it costs me. I will
keep it up."
