*' ' . # The Everyday Counselor Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. Marriage suceeds or fails at seven points of adjustment. Those about to be married should con sider these thoughtfully and those already married could ex amine them with profit. 1. Physical. Many a marriage "goes sour” within thg first few slays because of ignorance here. There must be mutually sat isfactory physical adjustment If the marriage is to be happy. It is physical attraction which causes a man and woman to marry. “Harmony In Marriage” by Wood (Roundtable Press) is recommended for all married cou ples, and those about to be mar ried. The chapter on Physical Harmony presents valuable in formation in good taste. 2. Financial. There must be sharing of financial responsibil ity. Every married couple should make a budget and learn to live within their income. Use the ten ten plan,—give ten per cent to the Lord’s work—save ten per cent Where husband and wife work in the business world their incomes should be pooled. Each should know the other’s income and financial responsibilities. 3. Psychological. It takes more than physical union to make a successful marriage. There must be a common denominator of tastes and companionship. Both husband and wife must enjoy do ing things together and do them together. 4. Sociological. Husband and wife must learn to know, under stand, and get along with each other’s relatives and friends. Much domestic friction is caused by “in-law” trouble. Each must also learn how to fraternize with the family and friends of their mate. 5. Vocational. They must like the job by which they earn their living. Dissatisfaction here re acts against marriage. They must either learn to like the job or get another. A woman who dislikes housekeeping should never mar ry. If either dislikes children, they should not marry. 6. Parental. It takes children to complete married happiness. When they come, let them be ac cepted as the gift of God and treated as such. But they must not be allowed to monopolize the attention of father or mother. They must continue to be hus band and wife as well as parents. 7. Spiritual. No marriage can be happy and successful without enduring spiritual foundations. Only the God-centered home can be lastingly happy. Husband and wife should unite in the same church. They should read the Bible daily and learn to pray together and aloud daily. “I” must become “we.” Then both should seek the daily advice and counsel of God. They must learn to pray, “Not my will, but Thine be done.” Dine & Dance March 22 I pgtnl Community Bldg.

She departed this life January 31, 1947, 4:00 A. M., at the Moores ville hospital, making her stay on earth 77 years, 4 months, and 5 days. She professed a hope in Christ and joined the church at Shiloh, September, 1886. Later she mov ed her membership to Grassy Creek M. E. Church. She was a faithful member and enjoyed each service. At different times she was known to testify as to her hope and faith, including the meeting at Shiloh last summer. During her illness, she spoke of the “Beautiful Home” up there. She was industrious and work ed even more than her strength would permit. She was kind hearted, and to know her was to love her. Her love and kindness will always be remembered and will remain in the hearts of her family and friends. It will be lonely without you mother, Without your presence, and pray ers; But for you, there is freedom, Freedom from sorrow and cares. We cherish your memory, dear mother, A memory more precious than gold. You leave a life behind you, Eternity only can unfold. We are going to meet you, dear mother, Meet you in that heme above. And be an undivided family, Where all is peace and love. She was married to Lee M. Pugh, March 3, 1887. He pre ceded her in death a number of y^arg ago, also, two sons, Grover and Claude.

At these seven points marriage either succeeds or fails. At each of these points there must be Sat isfactory adjustment and coop eration by willingness to “givtfc and take.” Finally, the marriage machine must be lubricated daily with the oil of courtesy and appreciation, and it must be kept in repair. . -V ivV .
