Be Unjust
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
Did you ever see," writes WHIT.
of Houston, Tex, 80 many gold
digging mothers? The country suf-
fers from its fool women who are
set on marrying their daughters to
rich men and who don't give a hang
about their happiness. I believe that
the women are getting more mer-
cenary every day"
Well, appearances often are de-
ceitful. It's best not to get AL het
up" about the back sl:dings OF
humanity.
Let us look backward and find out
how mothers behaved in past days.
Take, for instance, the Oneida In
dams, the real blue blood of the red
man's race, a tribe belonging to the
confederacy of the Six Nations and
distinguished in the early history of
New York.
One hardly would fancy now that
Oneida mothers were g~old-diggers
and yet a traveller who visited this
tribe hundreds of years ago, wrote
this account of them:
Their marriages usually are ar
ranged by the mothers of the maid
ems. These women seldom choose
the handsomest man or the bravest
warrior. 1t is always the best hunter
who is preferred"
The same old story, you see. Far
sighted Indian women who wanted
their girls to be sure of buffalo meat
and warm hides chose for them the
man who was SwifteSt in the chase
and the handiest with the bow and
arrow. Bringing home the bacon
was an eligible trait for men, even
in those good old days.
This habit mothers have of try
ing to persuade their girls to pick
men of weighty purses may be rep
rehenSible, but it's natural. The
old maternal protective instinct at
work, that's all. Now and then.
indeed, too often, all their schem-
ing goes for naught-
The mighty hunter in the martS
of trade turns out to be a flop and
daughter has to go to work her
self. But in the main, mothers
ought not to be censured too harsh
ly for their interest in the future
welfare of their children.
Most of them know that loves
young dream is beautiful, but that
it is likely to fade out when there is
not enough food in the cupboard!
The chief mistake a mother makes
is when she tries to ramrod her
child through life. But many a
maiden is blessed with a wise par
ent who knows how to guide her
footsteps skilfully toward the right
man. ! AS for me, I marvel that
there are so many sensible mothers
among us, considering the perfec-
tons we expect of them.

He is StalWart, more than 6 feet tall,

He lives on a rigid training schedule

He had a S65-a-week job with a

Police were without clues to series
OF hold-ups until Nelson and pal stole
a car in Evanston, kidnapping Dolores

and forcing her to accompany them on
a robbery tour in another suburb.
Dolores wept in fright While Nelson,
with schoolboy braggadocio. related his
athletic triumphs. emphasizing his skill
with skates. He didn't give his name,
of course. but Dolores, for all her tears,
was a good listener. She learned enough
