that it was not a comely sight. Some, indeed, have urged the
holy kiss; but then, I have asked them why they make their balks; why they- did salute
the most handsome and let the ill-favored ones go." Perhaps old Bunyan thought that way
because be was one of the "ill-favored" who went unkissed and were let "go."
But, nowadays, people have taken a broader outlook on life. Our plays are becoming
more civilized and less stiff. Our arts are no more censored by laws. Our books are being
written about subjects that no self-respecting author would ever have dared to put into a
book. Birth-control, divorce and the science of marriage are common subjects for books.
Even the strange vices of mankind are brought out into the open and discussed and not
allowed to fester in the dark chambers of censorship. Yes, books like Van de Velde's
"Ideal Marriage" and Stope's "Married Love" Ire openly sold in bookstores. But,
nowhere, do we find a book which instructs people in the art of kissing, an art which is an
absolute essential to a happy -life, as we shall discuss in the oncoming pages of this book.
Is it because we are not absolutely freed from the shackles of prudishness? In certain
parts of this country, men have been arrested for kissing their wives on the street! Is this
civilization?

WHY PEOPLE KISS
What happens when a man and a woman kiss?
That is to say, what happens, to the various parts of the body when two people in love
join their lips in bliss? Years ago, before our biologists knew of the existence of the
glands in our bodies, one writer quoted a scientist as saying that "kissing is pleasant
because the teeth, jawbones and lips are full of nerves, and when the lips meet an electric
current is generated."
What nonsense! what utter nonsense!
In the first place, two people kiss because they are satisfying, a hunger within them, a
hunger that is as natural as the hunger for-food, water and knowledge. It is the hunger of
sex that drives them to each other. After that, hunger has been satiated, then comes the
hunger for a home, for children and for marital happiness. This hunger is instinctive, that
is, we are born with it, all of us, and we cannot learn it or acquire it in any way.
WHY KISSING IS PLIEASANT
Once this hunger for the opposite sex evidences itself, there occurs in the human body
what is known as tumescence which, in simple language, is the rhythmical contraction of
the various muscles of the body together with the functioning of certain glands, just
which glands science has been unable to say definitely. Gland specialists know, by
performing certain operations, that the adrenal, the pituitary, the gonad and certain other
glands, control the sexual behavior of human beings. It is these glands that re-act, that
secrete what are known as hormones into the blood which, in turn, carries them into the
various organs effected by a sexual reaction.
Therefore, it can be seen that it is the partial satisfying of the sex-hunger that makes
kissing pleasurable.' Electricity is used for turning motors and lighting lamps and heating
curling irons. But electricity 4oes not give complete satisfaction to the kiss.
But enough of dry science!
We have ahead of us pleasurable reading of the bliss of the kiss. Now that we have
learned why it is that men and women kiss, let us go into the methods used in. kissing so
as to derive the most satisfaction from this most soul-appeasing of pleasures.

other. That is the first essential of the satisfying kiss. For a kiss is really the union of two
soul-mates who have come together because they were made for each other. The. reason
for this is that the kiss is really the introduction to love, true love. The kiss prepares the
participants for the love life of the future. It is the foundation,
