During the past thirty years many changes have taken place

j
in American soctety. One of these changes is that manY more
I
American couples are getting divorced. There are many r,easons

for this increase in the number of divorcesr One of the reasons

may be that young people are attracted to each other and become

eager to. get married at an early age. When they are first

married they seem to get along with each other very welI. Then,

a}l at once, the attraction between them weakens and,

consequently, they end up getting a divorce. They do not stay in

the relationship long enough to see if they could have gotten

along better wj-th each other. If, before they got marri'ed, they

Kathryn had an interesting experience ten years ago. She

wanted a job in another state with a company that seemed to hire

o n ly m a r es. Most of her fema le f rie n d s thought it wa s n t t a good

idea. woul-d she realIy be able to tolerate working wj-th men who

didn't want women in their company? rn that situation, wourd the

nen be tolerant enough for her to be abre to work with them? She
felt she could put up with anything if she courd get the job.

She could work atongside any man with complete confidence as tong

as her qualifications were recognized. So Kathryn wrote a letter

applying for the job. However, she negrected to state her sex

and she didnrt sign the letter Kathryn Mangold. rnstead, she

signed it K.B. Mangold. She received a letter back offering her

a very good job along with excetrent pay. she decided that

perhaps, once in a whiIe, it,s a good idea to give, not false

facts, but incomprete ones. she accepted the job offer, feeling

she could win the torerance of the arl mate company and, in

addition, their respect, by working hard. Because they hired her

cn her qualifications, not knowing if her sex was male or female,

:hey'd have to try and get along with her.

Today, Kathryn is the president of her own company. Stre has

coth males and females working for her and she has the respect of

:I1 of them.

The trip to the mountains started out fine. {tfler they got
off the bus, the boys were very serious. They walkel in pairs
and tried to stay away from danger. Then somettring happened! As
Roy Sides led the waylup the mountain' something bit him on the
feg. He quickly pulled off his boot. If he had been bitten bY a
sr,lke*, h; knew the bite could be fatal. David Twigs didn't wait
to find out. He Lnsisted on getting help as soon as possible. 5.
He Left two boys with Roy and led the others down the mountain to
get help. He was very convincing when he'told the boys that the
btte could ki1] Roy if he felI asleep. Roy became very sleepy'
but the two boys didn't let hlm drop off. Tf,ren David returned
with help and tney got Roy to the hospital in time to save his
lLfe. In place of going to the mountains, they stayed in a hotel
near the hospital fo:c 3 entj.re days. It had a large swimming
pool and tennis courts. 'The boys visited Roy in the morning' and
used up the rest of their time swimming or playing tennis. None
of the-boys said anything about the accident prevention taIk. At
Ieast, not to David or RoY.
