"ARRANGE IT SO THAT THE GIRL IS SEATED AGAINST THE ARM OF THE SOFA"

The dictionary says that a kiss is "a salute made by touching with the lips pressed closely together and

suddenly parting them." From this it is quite obvious that, although a dictionary-may know something

about words, it knows nothing. about kissing.

If we are to get the real meaning of the word kiss, instead of going to the old fogies who compile

dictionaries, we should go to the poets who still have the hot blood of youth coursing in their veins. For,

instance, Coleridge called a kiss, "nectar breathing." Shakespeare says that a kiss is -a "seal of love.

Martial, that old Roman poet who hid ample opportunity to do research work on the subject, says that a

kiss was "the fragrance of balsam extracted- from aromatic trees; the rise odor yielded by the teeming

saffron; the perfume of fruits mellowing in their winter buds; the flowery meadows in the summer;

amber warmed by the hand of a girl; a bouquet of flowers that attracts the bees."

Yes, a kiss is all of these ... and more.

Others have said that a kiss was: the balm of love; the first and last of joys; love's language; the seal of

bliss; love's tribute; the melting sip; the nectar of Venus; the language of love.

Yes, a kiss is all of these . . . and more.

For a kiss can never be absolutely defined. Because each kiss is different from the one before and the one

after. just as no two people are alike, so are no two kisses alike. For it is people who make kisses. Real,

live people pulsating with life and love and extreme happiness.

DIFFFERENT KINDS OF KISSES

Of course, there are different kinds of kisses. For instance, there is the kiss that the devout person

implants on the ring of the Pope. There is the maternal kiss of a mother on her child. There is the friendly

kiss of two people who are meeting or are separating. There is the kiss that a king exacts from his

conquered subjects. But although all of these are called kisses, they are not the kisses* that we are going

to concern ourselves with in this book. Our kisses are going to be the only kind of kisses worth

considering . the kisses of love. The kiss perhaps, that Robert-Bums had in mind when he wrote:

Honeyed seal of soft affections,

Tenderest pledge of future bliss,

Dearest tie of young connections,

Love's first snowdrop, virgin kiss.

The amazing thing about the kiss is that although mankind has been kissing ever since Adam first turned

over on his side and saw Eve lying next to him, there has been practically nothing written on the subject.

Every year, hundreds of books are published telling you how to reduce, how to gain, how to get a job,

how to cook, how to write and even how to live. But, on the art of kissing, very little has been written. -

One reason for this lack of proper instruction is accounted for by the Victorian. sense of morals which

has persisted through the ages. To the blue-nosed Puritans of the past anything that concerned love was

dirty, pornographical. John Bunyan's writings show what these, Puritans thought of' the kiss. He wrote in

big infamous "The Pilgrim's Progress," "the common salutations of women I abhor. It is odious to me in

whomsoever I see it. When I have seen good men salute those women that they have visted, or that have

visited them, I have made my objections against it; and when they have answered that it was but a piece

of civility, I have told them 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
