SPIRITUAL MzLITAN7S r.
ASSAH THE MARRIAGE
RITE or ANGLICANS

London. April T. A campaign
against the ''indignities'' to women
contained in the Anglican marriage
service is the latest effort Of the Suf-
fragists Spiritual Military league. F1f-
teen such moral humiliations are men
toned in the manifesto which the
league Is sending not only to every
clergyman of the church of England.
but to all persons whose forthcoming
marriage is announced in the daily
papers
The first two indignities alleged are
the words "obey him and serve him" :"
which the bride is required to repeat,
and the question put by the minister.
"who giveth this woman to be mar
ried to this man." One of the RENE
dies suggested for both is the omis-
sion of the words. The alternative is
that the bridegroom be required to
promise to "obey her and serve her"
and that the minister also ask "who
giveth this man to be married to this
woman?" Three indignities surround
the marriage ring and the BRIDE
grooms accompanying declaration.
The words, with all my worldly goods
I thee endow" have never been true,
says the manifesto The government Is
urged to drop the ring ceremony and

It's formula, or to enforce an exchange
Of rings and the use of formula con-
tanning mo economic falsehoods or
moral offense." Humiliation number
seven is the minister's pronouncement
that they shall be man and wife to-
gether. The implication complained Of
is that ''the woman is wholly a wife,
and the man not wholly a husband"
Protest Against Psalns.
Protesting that the first of the
psalms addresses itself wholly to the
bridegroom, the league demands Its
omission or that 1t Is supplemented by
another addressed to the wife.
The petition that the man shall
love his wife as Christ the church Is
an appalling humiliation of woman and
a pernicious exaltation of man."
Thirteenth indignity Is quoting St.
Paul's word: wives, submit your
selves unto your husbands as unto the
Lord; for he is the head of the wife.
even as Christ Is the head OF the
church"
The league strenuously opposes the
idea Of the husband being the head Of
the wife and suggests: Husbands,
also submit yourselves unto your
wives as supplement to this second
exhortation to the wife.
