Walking Backwards into Marriage?
That’s Subject for Friday Lecture
BY BILL MURRAY J . |
j You would not think of attempting anything so foolish ae to walk
backwards, blindfolded, off a stage or op a flight of stairs. Even In
the most ordinary daily operations you require dear vision, under-
»landing of the subject and knowledge of ahst Bee ahead.
Bat in taking one of the most important steps of life—getting
mhrr .-d mu-' people do something equivalent to walking backward
with a blindfold on. la nine cases out ot ten, people wall into marriage
with a complete lack of preparation* 4
for this important step and with
la deplorable lack of vision of what
lies ahead.
So says Roy E. Dickerson, who
is an authority on marriage and
family life, and be will proceed to
sobetantiate that viewpoint and
explain what he can do to improve
the situation, in our own lives. He
will be here at A. A M. Friday and
Saturday, Feb. 10 and 11. Friday
night at 7 in the chemistry lecture
room he will lecture to the general
public on the subject "Walking
Backwards into Marriage", the
theme of which is deacribed above.
In addition to thia main lecture,
under the auspices of the Y. M. C.
A., Dickerson will speak twice on
"When a Couple are Engaged," for
Marriage and Family Relations
course classes (Rural Sociology
815), Friday morning at 10:00 and
Saturday at 11:00. And he may
give another lecture for the public
in the Aaaembly Hall, Saturday
afternoon in connection with the
abow on the subject "Understand
ing yourself”
Dickerson uses the most modern
end entertaining ss well as educa
tional methods in his lecturing.
Frequently in his lectures he uses
