given from the hands of one male
into the hands of another. Her
father had possession of her as a
child until she was thought old
enough to be handed over to- her
husband. That is easily proven by
the words of the wedding ceremony,
which, you know, is archaic in the
extreme. The question at the we'd
ding ceremony--who gives this wo-
man to be the wife of this man p
proves this.
Strange as it may seem, every
woman in her first exaltation of her
great love, wishes to be given to her
husband-wishes to belong to him.
Our grandmothers were outwardly
acquiescent to be possession of
their husbands to the end of the
chapter. This was not always be-
cause of their great devotions to
their husbands but, because, alas,
they did not know how they would
live without him. They were afraid
to go out into the world and earn
their daily bread.
Ruth says that in the language
Of the street, they were afraid to
lose their "meal-ticket," and so they
stayed on earning their living in
"the easiest way" although if any
one had compared them to a woman
of the streets they would have been
very much insulted and very much
shocked.
Today things are very different,
John. Most women know they need
not be economically dependent upon
any man and so most of US ask for
the same faith. and loyalty to our
selves from our husbands that our
husbands require from US.

In New York

New York, March 2S.-Spring is
here and here's poor place for a
fellow to be in spring unless he can
sing song Of spring. Heigh-ho!
Oh, for the power to put in rondelet
all the passing scenes Of the sea-
sons show!
Along Riverside Drive, a fellow
atop a bus with his arm around a
girl. On the walk o sailor with his
arm around a girl. In machine, q
fellow driving with one hand, his
arm around a girl. Arms around
waists. arms around waists, oh, for
the rondelet!
And there's hurdy-gurdy on
Eighth avenue. And street statesmen
with trays of violets and second
hand roses at Times Square. And on
Fifth avenue girls in beautiful new
spring suits. And few jaunty
blades sporting jaundiced gloves and
jaunty canes. There goes camelia
in a buttonhole. Oh, for the rom
delet!
And on the East Side the mothers
out with their babies. Out of the
darkness of the tenement walls. And
the hot sleepless nights of summer
still far off. Babies, and laughter
and JOY echoing and re-echoing from
the tenement walls. Oh, for the
rondelet!
Boys with their bats and gloves
and balls. Girls with their skipping
ropes and dolls. Playing and dodg-
ing among fast running cars. Care
less and carefree with no thought Of
injury or death. Spring has come
and to live is enough. Oh for the
rondelet!
Come a Sunday and dry sod, and
the parks will be filled with poverty
and kids and lunches and rubbish.
Worn.out men and worn-out women
with their shoes pulled off and their
toes taking root in and life out Of
the soil. Heigh-ho! for the rondelet!
!. Come Sunday and away 60 the
fishermen to the waters that sur
round New York. Sunburn and
windburn and thirst and appetite,
waiting, waiting for the fish to bite.
Oh, for the rondelet! And oh, for
the tales they'll tell!
Come q Sunday and to Coney they
will 60, thousands upon thousands
of them. Dirty-faced brats with their
lollipopped faces and their sticky
hands. Sons and daughters of toll
spending their weeks wage in one
wild fling Of dancing and soda pop

Soon he will have to develop q
perspective which realizes the diff

As it is, "King Tut" is still the
standard of ultimate ancientness,

The land route across central Asia
by Tibet and the Cobb, the western
provinces Of China, the Businesses of
Siberia, the upper stretches of Bur
mese rivers, the interior of Sumatra
and Madagascar-these are a few of
Polo's journeyings in which no Eur
opean followed him for six centur-
les and which are a real adventure
even for the sons of venturesome
Theodore Roosevelt to undertake
now.
And, if the exploration of the land
is not yet finished, that of the sea
is just beginning.
The Sargasso sea, which the
Phoenecian navigators knew, which
Columbus crossed, but which is still
so little known that even modern
myth has peopled it with Punic gal
leys, Roman triremes and Castilan
caravels entangled in it's weeds, is

A Couple of Good Warnings
Two men are in the news, both
"broke" from gambling. babe"
Ruth one can understand. Pile
money into the hands of one without
education, experience or Imagination,
and he is likely to know nothing to
do with it except to finance on
large scale the primitive dissipations
which his kind make their small ex-
travagances.
So, when the "Bambino" got
thousand dollars a week, he natur-
ally "blew" it on the races, as the
most familiar speculation within his
ken.
But Lieutenant Wood is different.

The Forming of a Soviet
The California Legislature has re-
fused to mass law against the
"third degree" because the sheriffs
objected. and has passed a bill for a
"self-governing bar" because the
lawyers wanted it.
Doubtless if the lawyers had
realized that what they were form
ing was soviet, they would have
fled in terror from the name, in spite
of the. obvious practical merits of
their bill.
And doubtless the sheriffs would
not have objected to the penalization
Of the third degree if some legal
method of accomplishing the same
result were provided.
Every culprit except the one at
the bar-your son, your pupil, your
employe-has to stand questioning
himself on the accusation. SO does
the culprit at the bar in every sys-
tenn but ours.
1t is the natural process. That is
the reason it is done illegally and
irresponsibly. The best remedy
would be to provide for doing it leg
ally and responsibly.

Without waiting TO be asked twice
they went right in.
"How. ID dot" said ne.
"How d. dol" said everybody.
"Sit down." invited the Scissor

The March Hare took out his

"Thankee kindly, sir, but really W.

GIRL SHOT THROUGH SIDE

Magdelene, six year old daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Hoffman,
farmers, near Sweet Briar is in the
Mandan Deaconess Hospital with q
bullet wound through her right side,
the result Of children playing with
.22 caliber rifle.
Mr.. Hoffman took a certain Man
dan youth out to the farm to work.
The boy found .22 rifle, hunted up
cartridges and gave the gun to the
young Hoffman children to play with.
A brother, aged about II, pointed
the gun at his sister Magdelene, "just
for fun"
The bullet entered the right side
at about the third rib, penetrated the
muscle tissues and emerged about
two inches from the spinal column.
No arteries or vital organs were
struck by the bullet in its passage
through her side and the attending
physician declares if no infection de-
velops she will soon be as we'll as
ever.
Last year the girl and her brothers
