Marriages always are ar.
ranged by the fathers of the cou-
pie. Women remain heavily
yelled in public from a young
age. Their social status is so
low that they are not counted
as members of a family or town.
'1f asked the size of the fam.
lily of q man with a wife, two
sons and two daughters, he
would answer it was three"
Hobbs said. "And If he said his
village population was $50, he
meant $50 men and boys"
Husbands always refer to
their wives by nickname given
them by the husband, apparent
ly to shield her married identity
from others, Hobbs said.

only recently has achieved a

But because Of its strategic

BY tacit "gentleman's agree.

commented on his own work.
Most impressive American

Many ancient Afghan Gus.

ing. In many subjects, texts in
Persian, the Afghan language,
were non-existent.
The ICA workers managed to
publish textbooks on many of
these subjects, usually by re-
writing and combining portions
of English texts.
Fortunately, Afghanistan has
no copyright laws to hamper

smile.
Hobbs, with his wife and two
children, made their home in
the mile-high capital city from
February, 1858, to July, 1859.
They lived in a dried-mud house
equipped with kerosene stove
for cooking and wood-burner for
heating and for hot water.
Indoor plumbing was avail

Hobbs found the Afghans
friendly, curious people who in
vited him and his wife to many
native dinners, social gatherings
and weddings.
Hobbs confessed, however,
that he never managed to re.

place in the pre-dawn, after the
party has lasted for as long as
eight hours.
