THREE NEW CHURCHES

If present plans are carried out
Chickasha will have three new
church buildings within a year.
Plans for new Congregation

TO have a new $50, 900 structure.

THE MONEY QUESTION.
A Hard Problem With Which Many
Wives Have to Wrestle.


Perhaps the first difficulty young
wives have to encounter, as well as the
last that old wives have still to wres-
tie with, is the question of money.
Most women are by nature economical.
They watch outgo more carefully than
men do and plan expenditures more
closely. The eXtravagant women are
usually those whose lives have not
been allowed to develop naturally,
who have been forced into an econo-
mic dependence and taught the joys
OF spending, with none of the counter
balancing difficulties of earning. But
even such women have economical
streaks in the midst of their lavish
ness-a sort of spasmodic reversion
TO type. In spite of this there is in
most masculine minds a deep seated
distrust of woman's financial ability.
and the consequence is that the world
is full of careful, Industrious wives
nagged and hindered by careless, i'm.
pulsive husbands, who take to them
selves the credit of the wife's savings
and throw upon her the blame of
their own loose methods. Few of
these women like to assert themselves
boldly as their husbands financial
superiors-some Of them even aid
him in his joyful career of self de.
ception-and when III cooperation
they are driven to take the reins into
their own hands it hurts them worse
than it does the Observation-Disclosures
Bazaar.

MARRIAGE LAWS ABROAD.
How Breach of Promise Cases Are
Averted In

How Breach of Promise Cases Are
Averted In Hungary.
There are many curious and inter.
and divorce laws of foreign countries"
said r. J.. Brown, who recently return
ed from a trip abroad. where he made
a study Of the question.
Breaches of promise are averted in
Hungary by an express declaration Of
the civil marriage act that the relations
created by a betrothal do not give the
right to command the conclusion Of q
marriage, but il either party with
draws from an engagement without
Just reasons he or she Is bound to
grant compensation to the extent Of
the outlay incurred. Divorce in the
English sense does not exist. but the
courts can decree the personal separa-
ton of a married couple without dis
solving the boRds of matrimony.
"A curious law prevailing in France
provides that before being married
children of a family. although owe
age, shall seek in respectful and form
al terms the advice of their father and
mother. 1t makes no difference, how
ever, whether the consent of parents is
given, for the couple can be married a
month after under any circumstances.
This is also the case in the Neither
lands. A divorce further entities the
innocent party to recover all the pres
ents he or she may have made.
According to the constitution Of the
Netherlands, the civil marriage must
always precede the religious ceremony.
The latter, indeed, is left entirely to
the conscience of the parties concern
ed. There is also a law providing that
no man or woman under thirty can
marry without the consent Of parents.
If the consent be refused, the couple
have to appear before a judge. who
advises them as he thinks best.
MANY countries have now abolished
all marriage fees. This is the case In
Norway. while in the Netherlands GER
tain days in the week are set apart
when persons may be married without
