Hoe About
Untaithul
Husbands?
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

A man who Is dreadfully alarmed
about the new feminine behavior
says that there should be some way
of branding Unvirtuous wives.
How on earth. he eXClaimS, is
a man to know whether his wife is
behaving, now that"Women have the
run of the streets and expose their
persons to the public in the most
shameless manner? I am in favor OF
the men banding themselves TO-
gether to devise some wa" 10 cope
with the present situation"
Well, about the best advice
could offer the gentleman is to cite
him the report Of one Jcdediah
Morse written to the secretary OF
war. John c. Calhoun, in the year
1922, regarding his official visit 10
the POtcowatt5miG Indians. One
item runs thus
The crime OF adultery generally
is punished b. these Indians by the
husbands biting off the woman'S
nose, ana thereafter separating him
self from her
From &his succinCt bit We gather
that then. as now. The women COM
miJted most Of the adultery. rs
nothing in the report mentions what
vas dine to the man guilty OF thi,
same offenSe. Very little, in facl,
in all history has been said about
that phsaC OF The matter
Many OF the early visitors 10 tle
Indian tribes however. have moa-
toned this curioas custom. Ther
have noticed occasionally q woman
with q missing nose A. q deterTcCt
for the evil decd it seems 10 have
been singularly effective.
To 90 further into the ability 1T

Qren. The men, when not engaged
in war or hunting, amuse them
selves by exercising on horseback,
leave YOU to Judge by that, dear
reader, how sadly our men have lost
their power over women. And worse
still. I don't know what they are
going to do about it,
The aborigineS. however. were re-
markably faithful to their marriage

day. I imagine, if strict justice had
prevailed more masculine than fem

under which leaseholders pool their acreage in a given area and share proportionately in results, wild drill ing campaigns are stopped.
 Unitization stops the practice, prevalent in the past, of drilling promising section full of holes in 60 days, at heavy expense and with useless sacrifice of oil and gas. Operators under the unit system no longer are forced to drill to protect themselves simply be- cause a nearby leaseholder has brought in" well.
 More than 25 unitized operations already are in progress, and the idea is spreading as it finds favorr able reception among operators.
