Du Toit's opposition was bas-

marriages is most disgraceful.

The bill briefly provides that
from the date the law is put into
force, no marriages between Eur
opeans and non-Europeans may
be solemnied, and any such mar
riages solemnized will be de-
clared void. Persons guilty of
violating the act are liable to
penalties prescribed by law for
perjury.

selfish and grasping. or the one
who tells risQue stories, or the loud
girl who is the life of the party.
But most men are afraid Of her
and steer clear of her. She gets
on their nerves, and, anyway, she
isn't the sort of a woman they
want for wives.
Men like modesty in woman
and this goes both for body and
mind They like woman who
has delicate reserves and who does
not strip away all the seven wells
Of illusion from about her person
and soul.
Men like intelligence in a wom-
an, but they want her to keep 1t
under cover, so to speak. They
like a woman to be clever enough
to conceal how clever she is. Few
men like feminine fools, but
neither do they crave feminine
highbrows. They want a woman
who has brains enough to manage
her own affairs, and to understand
what they are doing and talking
about, but they loathe a woman
who is always showing of how
smart she is and whose lightest
conversation Is on world affairs or
atomic theory.
