SEEKING KIND HUSBANDS
Young Women Of Holland Understand
That Americans Treat Their
Wives Well.

Thirty-tive young women from Hol-
land stepped foot on American shores
the other day admitting they are
seeking kind husbands because they
heard that American men are good to
their wives" Some American wives
may be inclined to enjoy silent laugh
over this innocence displayed by the
Hollanders, but after the first humor-
GUS aspect of the situation has passed.
most Of those who have enjoyed the
comedy will be einclined to believe
after all that there is much merit in
what these foreign women say about
the husbands of America, observes
the Bangor Commercial.
When one sits down and considers
the lot of women in many countries Of
Europe, and reflects upon the limited
opportunities which they possess for
enjoying life, it ought to be source
Of mutual satisfaction both to hus-
bands and wives in America that they
are living in country where higher
standard of marital relationship OBJ
tains than in many foreign nations.
