The bearing Of the women. who
in addition to losing their loved
ones have automatically been faced
with the prospect Of dire need II
not starvation, bears up well with
accounts of the stoicism Of the
wives Of ancient Spartan and
Roman warriors.
Thirteen Of the miners left wives
and children behind when they
made their last descent into the
depths Of the Argonaut.
The tales Of what goes on when
two-score men are trapped in a
pitch black hole, with no food,

two weeks. often repeated by these
self-same husbands over the dinner

These thirteen wives know all
this. 1t can be read in their eyes

average OF autos in use in the whole country
is one Of every 1910 persons. a ratio which
varies considerably, however in different

In addition to taxes levied on their as
