Counselor. Lists Three Symptoms of Love KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Feb. 12 —M—Want to know whether you're in love? Well, an authority on the sub ject said recently you are if you— Have learned to think in terms of "we" instead of "I." Have started referring to `our" religion, "our future" Have learned to quarrel crea tively. Mrs Arnold Nash. marriage ounselor at the University of North Carolina. says those are three sure-fire symptoms of love. In quarreling creatively, she said, nobody wins. "It isn't good when one domi nates and the other gives in," shz s zplained. "Instead, values from both arguments should be used to build a solution." Love Outlasts Infatuation, John Says Love lasts while infatuation passes, Dr. Macklin E. John, head of the Department of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology. told the Penn State Christian As sociation Freshman Council, last night. • To be in love, people must en joy each other as persons, Dr. John said, explaining that young people today are too conscious of sex. He recommended many mixed activities so people can learn what to expect from the opposite sex. During courtship, the best foot is put forward too much, Dr. John commented. Admiration between both' par ties is essential to love, Dr. John said, adding that if each party does not respect the conduct and ideals of the other, they will be- Love grows out of blending of concepts of roles, Dr. John stated, explaining that each partner must have a preconceived picture of his and his mate's part in mar riage, and these parts must be capable of being merged.. One should not try to reform a mate, he warned. Love develops a sense of one ness between the partners, Dr. John said. Though love grows from intelligence, it contains some blindness, he added. .

Choosing Valentines Presents Problems Choosing precisely the right valentine to send to her latest heart throb has been a major problem confronting the coed ever since the local stores decked themselves in big red hearts and lacy doilies a full month ago. First she •bought a. funny one—such as the "Do I want you for my valentine?" variety, which when opened showed a version of Bugs Bunny, vigorously munching on a carrot, 'and shaking negatively with movable ears, "None." But feeling that perhaps he may not understand women well enough to know that "nope" meant "you bet," she invested another dime in a valentine which made no attempt to disguise the fact that she loved him. With sickly sentimentality, the valen tine's dainty script said, amid a myriad of hearts and forget-me nots, "Just to say I love you. Be my valentine " Patron Saint And then, doubting the • pro priety of sending such an amorous valentine in view of the fact that they weren't really "officially" going steady though of course he wasn't dating anyone else (she thought)—she decided to compro mise by sending both. And after lengthy debates with her roommate on just how to sign the cards, she no doubt decided on Something of the variety, "With all my love, Mary." 'Perhaps on the Bugs Bunny card, just to be sure he'd no t misinterpret, she added, after the "None," some thing such as, "Not Really. Just couldn't resist- the card," • EngraVect Amethyst Just how the custom of sending valentines originated is about as much of a mystery as exactly how St. Valentine came to be the pa tron of lovers. In the third cen tury, Valentine was punished by the emperor Claudius, who had decreed that no. new marriages were to take place among his army of young fighting men. Doubtless Valentine became the patron saint of lovers everywhere by secretly marrying so many young couples that .he died for violating the cruel decree of Claudius. February's birthstone, the amethyst, is associated with Val entine's Day as an outcome of the tradition that says St. Valentine wore an amethyst engraved with a cupid. Inner Serenity As' a birthstone the amethyst, in addition to its association with St. Valentine, derives a special aura of goodness and beneficence from the Greek and Roman eras. In the mythical Island of the Blessed, where, it was said, the favorites of the' gods dwelt for ever, supposedly existed an altar of amethyst. Th e amethystine colors palest violet to deepest p •wr p 1 e—came •to be associated with love, truth, and hope. As symbols of inner serenity, ame thysts were long felt to be safe guards against unrest. Sentimental ' Gift-giving on Valentine's Day dates back to the 17th century, when traditional presents we r e jewelry and rings set with pre cious' gems. Samuel Pepys re corded in his famous diary that during the Valentine's Day lot tery, in which women chose their valentines, "My wife chose me, which did much pl ease me." To show his pleasure, he pre sented- her with a turquoise ring set with 'diamonds. And though American college men are undoubtedly as readily moved to sentiment as Pepys was, it is doubtful that many coeds By GRETA 'WEAVER will be recipients of turquoise rings set with diamonds. Knowing the American college woman, however, it's a sure bet that she'll be just as pleased with a box of candy or a dozen roses. Chances are she'll even appre ciate the male's thoughtfulness in sending a nickel "Be my valen tine."
