“Happy? That doesn’t feel solid enough, somehow. Like it’s fleeting or transient, and whenever something crappy happens, it’s gone in a puff of smoke.

“But that did not alarm Cornell University professor Walter Willcox, who had, over the previous twenty years, become a leading authority on American marriage and divorce. He was heartened by the story the numbers told. “We are slowly awakening to a new ideal of the family based not upon the subordination of the wife in all phases of family life,” Willcox told his students. “The increase of divorce in this country may be due rather to a rising of ideals than to a decay in family life.”
