WOMEN IN KANSAS

Out in Kansas, where they strive
to please, the women ought to have
small cause for complaint if it is pos
sible to deprive the sex of that in
alienable right.
Here are some of the things a
woman of the Sunfower State may
legally do:
Can take back her maiden name
after her husband is dead, without
any legal process or legislative act.
Can keep her own name when she
is married.
Can persuade her husband to take
her name and give UP his family
name If she does not like it.
Can keep her maiden name and
her husband can keep his.
Can retain her maiden name for
business transactions and use her
husbands name for social affairs.
If wife does not like either her
own or husbands family name they
can change to name that does suit.
A woman can wear mems clothing
without any restriction except that
she must not pose as a man.
She can vote at any election.
She can hold any office in the

BOY JOCKEY EARNS FORTUNE
Sixteen-Year-Oid Rider Receives 81 900
Weeky-Rated as One of Leading
Pilots of Country.

What would the average man do il
he made $1,000 a week? Would he
carefully put the bulk of it away in
the bank SO that some day he could
go to school and get an education?
That is what Mack Gardner does.
He is only sixteen years old, but he
makes $1,000 week riding race
horses to victory, and he is rated as
one of the leading pilots of the coun-
try.
In spite of the size of his weekly
pay check he's just kid" and when
he wants to have some fun he goes
out and plays leapfrog with the rest
of the fellows or dashes around the
streets on a bicycle. Next to riding
a bicycle, he likes to eat candy.
Riding a horse is work to me-" he
says, but riding a bicycles fun
Since his first appearance on the
race track year ago at Butte, Mont,
Mack has proved a sensation. He won
25 races, and his bank account is piled
up accordingly. But, just the same,
his head is not turned bit.
According to Mack, a Jockeys life is
no cinch. He gets up at a. m. and
eats light breakfast. Then he gets
dressed for morning exercise, which
means galloping around the track at
breakneck speed until nearly eight
o'clock.
He has the rest of the morning to
himself, but at noon he has to report
at the jockey room. After dinner he
dresses in the colors he is to wear in
the first race.
He has to dress anew for every race
he is to appear in, and sometimes this
means seven changes in one afternoon.
Gee, that gets my goat declares
Mack.
Most of the jockeys chew, smoke
and drink. Il smoke a little" SAYS
Mack, but, say, honest, I'd rather eat
candy"
His mother, who lives in Centerviile.
Ia, sends him box of homemade car
amels every week.
Asked what he did with his weekly
$1,000, Mack looked shrewd then said:
I'm investing it, and some day when
l am older and perhaps too heavy to
ride, I'm going back to school and get
an education"
