PAGE SIX SULLIVAN COUNTY RECORD THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7.1963 (Elizabeth Barrett Browning, once penned the following beautiful words to her husband: “What I do and what I dream include thee, as the wine must taste of its own grapes.” To describe the deep love Elibeth Browning had for her husband is beyond my ability to do so. Never theless I am going to stick my neck out for two nice people and. hope that you like what I have to say. No two kindlier persons ever trod the land of Jeffersonville’s quiet countryside than Louis and Minnie Layman. And no father and mother were ever blessed more with two nicer daughters than Kathryn and Muriel, and their respective hus bands. My own personal experiences with Louie and beloved “Aunt Minnie” and their daughters, have been so enriching that it seems like I’ve enjoyed a lifetime of friendship with them. It s therefor with the great est of pleasure that I try in a small way to pay homage to Louie and Minnie on reaching their 50 th wed ding anniversary. Of course it is a week past their anniversary and I wasn’t asleep either, The following letter written by the wife of a very high Chinese officia to her husband, while he was away on a diplomatic mission best explains the meaning of love. My Dear One, “Thou askest me if I still care for thee, if the remembrance of thy face has grown less dear with the passing of the days. Dear one, thou knowest we Chinese women are not supposed to know of love, much less speak of it. We read of it, we know it is the song of all the world, but it comes not to us unless by chance. We go to you as strangers, we have no choice, and if the Gods withhold their greatest gift, the gift of love, then life is grey and wan as the twilight of a hopeless day. Few women have the joy I feel when I look into my laved one's face and I know that I . am his and he is mine, and that our lives are twined together for a ll. the days to come. D I love thee? I cannot tell. I think of thee by day and Idream of thee by night. I never want to hurt thee nor cause thee a moment’s sorrow. I would_fill mx hands with happiness to lay down at thy feet. I’d rather live like the Laymans and this little- repartee I heard on my last visit to their home will best ex plain whatl mean. “Aunt Minnie” was hanging her wash and as I inquired where Louie was she said: “He’s inside waiting for his dinner, I’d better huny and give it to him before he kills me.” I went inside the house and there was 'Louie sitting in his easy chair, just like a king. He had overheard my conversation with his wife and with a twinkle in his eyes he yelled; ‘Teah. And she better hurry with my meal before I get my shotgun.” And this after 50 years of wedding bliss. God bless them both. Minnie and Louie Layman married about three years but did. respect the wish of “Aunt Minnie” not to mention« the occa sion. Now that it is past I think I’m entitled to wish them a “happy Anniversary” and I know that each year of their wedded life has over filled their cup of happiness with joy. Fifty years is a long, long time and I know the Layman’s made many sacrifices and managed when first married without the many present, day conveniences. I also know that both love, and just for the sake of loving to work the land. They are continually laughing and ribbing each other andA you sense the fact that they enjoy every minute of life. If any two people know what love is I think they not only feel it but live it. 'Indeed fortunate are those who have captured the true mean ing of love. •Love is a very difficult subject to describe. The best to my know ledge ever written on the matter of love was given by a Chinese hero ine from Elizabeth Cooper’s fine book “My Lady of the Chinese Courtyard” first published in 1914, and the last I knew the book had its nineteenth printing. Cooper in her book, based on let ters shown her many years after they were written, brings out the fact that, Chinese girls saw very little of the | world outside their own courtyard. Thou art my life, my love, my all, and I am thine to hold through all th® years.” A writer on things Chinese was asked why one found so little writ ing upon the subject of the women of China. He stopped, looked puz zled for a moment, then said, “The women of China! One never hears about them. I believe no one ever thinks about them, except perhaps that „they, .are the mothers of the Chinese meri ” ' The Chinese women is practically unknown, she hides herself behind her husband and her. sons, yet, .be cause of tliat filial piety, that almost religious veneration in which all men of Eastern races hold their parents, she really exerts an untold influence upon the deeds of the men of her race. Their home life is a sealed book to the average person visiting China. Even in early childhood the Chinese parents pick future husbands and wives for their children. In al household in China a daughter-in-j law is of very little importance tin- til she is the mother of a son. Then from being practically a servant of her husband’s mother, she rises to a place of equality and is looked up on with respect. Of course, we Americans have it better than the Chinese, as our wo men are treated as equals. Only by accepting a wife as an equal can twQ people survive a happy marriage. “ N e x t w e p u t i n t h e T e c t r i c i t y ” Even small fry know that electricity is all-important to today’s home. . . that electric living is better living. w h a t they don’t yet realize is that families do moie, go more, enjoy themselves more because electricity has taken milch of the drudgery out of family life. Push a button and the laundry is done „ . . a meal cooks by Itself, With no one in the kitchen . . . set the thermostat and the house stays comfortable. Make sure you’re using the miracle of electricity to the-fuHest. It’s the biggest bargain in your household budget. The more you use, the less becomes the average y our Electrical Servant cost of doing each task.
