Good-By, Home Life.

“A primary cause of divorce Is the disappearance of home life —the extinction among us of all home sentiment.” The speaker was Mary Pickford, the movie actress. She went on: “A man said to me the other day: “ ‘No, I’m rarely home. You’ll find me, as a rule, at the Country club. I’d rather play golf than eat.’ ” "‘But how about your wife,’ said I. ‘Does she approve of such sentiments?’ “ ‘Sure!’ he answered. ‘She’d rather play bridge than cook.’ ” —Washington Star.
