T HAVE often wondered on the rela-L tive meaning of “compatibility” be
tween a man and a woman, preferably
his wife. It is but very recently that
this “compatibility” phase crept into
marriage. Up till then, it was largely
“hit-and-miss”, convenience (as about
dowries, or social position), oi' plain
passionate do-or-die love.
Then, when divorce became the ac
cepted thing, you heard of “incom
patibility”.
In simple words, it meant that the
couple just couldn’t get along. They
couldn’t agree on the time to play and
where: they couldn’t agree on inter
ests, dislikes, people ox' anything.
They loved each othex- madly, once
upon a time, but he was now awake
to her horrible taste in hats, and she
thought that something drastic should
be done about his purple shirts. In
stead of making allowances for their
initial mistake in choice, they get more
and more disgusted with each othei'
and finally decide that the marrigae
license was only a “scrap of paper.”
There are some cases where di vorce

cruelly manifest . . . incompatibility.
Very few men or women are suffic
iently great within themselves to
withstand the daily agony of a mesal
liance that has brought nothing but
heartbreak, quarrels, leaving their
scars on innocent children, twisting
the souls of man and wife until they
resemble two enemy camps forever
divided. These, and one is thankful
that they are rare, are the exceptions
to the usual type of marriage.
Usually, aftex- a year- ox' so, when
the glamour of courtship and romance

or wolfish, she can gently wean him
from the habit, ox' just shut hex' eyes
to it and concenerate on his endear
ing habit of remembering all anniver
saries, birthdays and special days. If
he thinks that she worries too much
over transient styles, then he can
overlook it because she can cook up
a better mess of food than he ever
ate in a cafe in the pre-marriage days.
Compatibility is the reasonable and
sensible way of regarding a marriage
that does not live on a daily ration
of love’s nectar and ambrosia. Com
patibility is the conscious building up
of a life between a man and his wife,
a life that is rich in shared exper
iences, both good and bad.
Life is for us, my dear,
Laughter and each tear;
The daily bread you earn
Gamers thanks in turn,
Piling up their credits
Against all petty debits.
Life is for us, my dear,
What have we to fear,
When, as we gently age,
Like stars upon each page
Our children’s faces shine
Upon your heart and mine'!

passionate do-or-die love.
Then, when divorce became the ac
cepted thing, you heard of “incom
patibility”.
In simple words, it meant that the
couple just couldn’t get along. They
couldn’t agree on the time to play and
where: they couldn’t agree on inter
ests, dislikes, people ox' anything.
They loved each othex- madly, once
upon a time, but he was now awake
to her horrible taste in hats, and she
thought that something drastic should
be done about his purple shirts. In
stead of making allowances for their
initial mistake in choice, they get more
and more disgusted with each othei'
and finally decide that the marrigae
license was only a “scrap of paper.”
There are some cases where di vorce
is the only solution, and I disagree
heartily with the cleric who shuts his
eyes to any and all manifest . . .
cruelly manifest . . . incompatibility.
Very few men or women are suffic
iently great within themselves to
withstand the daily agony of a mesal
liance that has brought nothing but
heartbreak, quarrels, leaving their
scars on innocent children, twisting
the souls of man and wife until they
resemble two enemy camps forever
divided. These, and one is thankful
that they are rare, are the exceptions
to the usual type of marriage.
Usually, aftex- a year- ox' so, when
the glamour of courtship and romance
have worn off, the couple have to
make many readjustments.
If she
doeesn’t like the way he eats, finicky
or wolfish, she can gently wean him
from the habit, ox' just shut hex' eyes
to it and concenerate on his endear
ing habit of remembering all anniver
saries, birthdays and special days. If
he thinks that she worries too much
over transient styles, then he can
overlook it because she can cook up
a better mess of food than he ever
ate in a cafe in the pre-marriage days.
Compatibility is the reasonable and
sensible way of regarding a marriage
that does not live on a daily ration
of love’s nectar and ambrosia. Com
patibility is the conscious building up
of a life between a man and his wife,
a life that is rich in shared exper
iences, both good and bad.
Life is for us, my dear,
Laughter and each tear;
The daily bread you earn
Gamers thanks in turn,
Piling up their credits
Against all petty debits.
Life is for us, my dear,
What have we to fear,
When, as we gently age,
Like stars upon each page
Our children’s faces shine
Upon your heart and mine'!
