Decisions have to be made at every moment of our lives-many of them on small matters that may lead to something far more important later on. On looking back and speculating on the ' might have been ', no one other than oneself can ever tell how nearly one might have decided the other way. In this ' Decision ', the fifth of the series, the problem is common enough-which of two candidates is the daughter of the house going to marry ? Her father and mother each have strong and different views which they keep rather to themselves ; but here they reveal them by thinking aloud at the microphone. The girl comes to her decision in the same kind of soliloquy, and finally the young man makes his choice -rather unexpectedly.
