|Busbn1en Haven't Discovered

Professor Returns
From IS Months
Among Aboriqines

The South African bushmen,
who live today as scientists think
man lived early in his history on
this planet some 100000 years
ago, could teach more civilized"
people a lot about marriage and
divorce.
In bushman life. everybody gets
married and nobody gets di-
vorced.
That is among the findings of
the Rev. Martin Gusinde. emf
nenC anthropologist who spent
IS months with the little-known
people.
Material he brought back with
him is on display in the library
of Catholic University, where he
is a professor.
Marriage Universal.
Marriage is universal among
the bushmen, because an un-
married person would soon
starve. DR.. Gusinder reported.
Women collect water. fuel. vege-
tables and ostrich eggs, while
the men hunt.
Once marriage is contracted.
it lasts until the death of one
of the partners. Divorce is un-
heard of.
The usual marriage age is 13
to Is for girls and Is to Is for
boys. Criteria for picking a girl
are similar to those Of divorce
plagued moderns.
Beauty of face and form are
important. DR.. Gusinde found.
So are willingness to work. agil-
ity and a pleasant manner.
Boys must be good hunters
