Show Modern Youth Had Eye to the Possible Future "Christians take betrothals and marriages too lightly," said Rabbi ilajniu. "They dart In and out of matrimony with ns little concern ns they pass through the revolving doors of their apartment houses. Mating Mat-ing has become a game, rather than a sacred obligation. "Not very long ago a jewelry firm called me up and said that a young man, a Christian, by the way, had given my name as a reference in order or-der to get nn engagement ring on the installment plan. Later, when 1 saw the young fellow, I nUed: "Why In the world do you want to buy nn engagement ring on the Installment In-stallment plan when I know you can afford to pay cash for It?' " 'Because," he replied, 'it relieves nie of some of the responsibility for getting It back If the engagement is broken.' " Los Angeles Times. |
