Kansas City: 81 am here to plead for the
home. 1 want to see our men marry. Let
them marry young. I'd rather have them
marry at Is thar 30. Young men who
arrive at the age of % and are still bachel-
ors, ! am for taxing 500. If they are still
unmarried at % / would tax them 300;
At "a. $500; and 10 on up to 80. Any man
Who was,nf mtffIfa at 30 1 would be for
ssndfna % the r11ifentiary. God meant
rkat man aheaId marry. A bachelor Is
uniy half a mac. When men marry they
expect to wed pure women. Women have
& right to expect the same thing. What
40 they get7 Too often a bride gets a
man she has thought an angel, and finds
him a billy goat. Don't laugh. do not

NO sln In laughter. / simply say things
