.POLYANDRY BOOSTED
BY SCHOOL GIRL

Los Angeles, Jan. 24.-"The mys-
terry Of the tabooed essay, or Mormon
ism Reversed"
This startling subject is now brew
ing a tempest in the Los Angeles
High School teapot. .
Pretty Deane Weldon Hill, blonde,
v~ivacious, petite and n of the most
popular of the 5000 students Of the
IL. A. High" now occupies the cen
ter of the stage. She has written an
essay. and-being a sophomore-of
course II is a wise one.
"Mormonism Reversed" was the
theme she chose, and started to read
to her class. After a hundred words
or so. Deane's teacher took a hand
and politely but firmly asked the pu-
pill to stop right where she was"
The essay follows:
BY DEANE WELDON HILL
Brigham Young had the only sys-
tenn on earth, but he had 1t the wrong
way. II, instead Of a man being per-
mitted to have all the wives he
wished, the woman had all the hus-
bands she wanted, think how much
more sound the proposition would
have been.
Would 1t not be better for the NO.
man to have plenty of suitors at home
than to have to go abroad for amuse-
ment? Then, also the husbands
would not see so much of their wives,
and thus enchantment would remain
a few days after the honeymoon.
A woman must have plenty of play
things, and why should she have to
leave her Preside to find them? Why
not furnish her toys, and know where
she is playing?
MANY POCKET BOOKS
The men surely can see the sound
reasoning of this proposition.
You say that the woman would
have too much to do. However, many
husbands would mean many pocket
books at her disposal, and therefore
while the exp ense would be Greatly
increased, and the work likewise, the
income would show a rise and help
might be hired, releasing entirely the
wife and leaving her free to enter
tain her husbands.
This system would relieve the pres
ent scarcity of escorts, and If Ed
cared to stay home of an evening,
Ted could take Elizabeth out. And
in case none of the husbands caredto
leave the hearth fire In the evening
after a days work, turns could be
taken, and If "Mormonism Reversed"
had been properly applied, there
would only be two or three evenings
a year when Ed would have to go to
a dance or theater.
Elizabeth could go every night and
having every night a different escort
would surely add variety. And is
not variety the spice of life? Most
assuredlyi

EGGS CHEAP, TIME TO
BUY FOR WINTER USI

"Invest in eggs now for a 100 pes
cent profit next winter" is the tine
ly advice flashed to New Jersc
housewives by the State Bureau 9
Markets. In commenting on the re
cent big drop in egg prices the BIZ
reau shows that eggs can be Pun
chased now for less than half tn
average winter price and can Dc
safely preserved in water glass foi
use when the seasonable price ad-
vance comes.
For successful preserving cnl,
strictly fresh eggs should be pur-
chased, II possible directly from
poultrymen or farmers who viii
guarantee their quality, the bures,
says. Thousands of families are said
to have taken this departments ad-
vice on similar purchases last year
with a worth while saving effected
during the winter.
The department figures it will
cost only a few cents to preservt
eggs purchased fresh today for $500
that should be worth at least 5000
by the time prices have scared agar
next Christmas.
