That is just what the state board
Of control wants-a pedigree 1t Is
going to ask the next session Of the
legislature to pass a law requiring
every person to present an iron clad
pedigree to the probate Judge before
he can issue license to marry.
This pedigree Is to show whether
or not there is any trace of epilepsy
or insanity In either party and if|
there is, even the slightest bit, the
board of control will have to pass
on the case before a license can be
issued. This campaign follows the
marriage of a woman discharged
from the Parsons insane asylum.
The board of control alleges by
virtue of an old law 1t can prohibit
he marriage of persons afflicted with
insanity or epilepsy, but the thing
s to know whether they are afflict-
ID. The law does not give the board
