PAY HER WAGES?

Haw! Haw! Say Most Legislators to Proposal Husbands Give Mates Regular Salary

■ -i MOULD wives be paid wages ? C to dole out real money to the the domestic furnace and

moving? So far as some members of the Indiana Legislature are concerned, She should not! Har Har! In the current issue of a wellknown magazine, William Johnston, noted journalist, advocates a prenuptial deal wherein the husband agrees to pay the wife a stipulated amount for being a good helpmate. Oh, Boy! What a nation this would be if wives paid us men for being good boys! What a nation! And He’s a Bachelor About the only member of the House of Representatives who could even see the proposition was Representative James V. Brewster, of Corydon, and he’s a bachelor. “It’s a mighty good thing,” quoth Brewster in plain seriousness. “Why many wives live in absolute penury simply because their husbands refuse to give them money. Just the other night I was visiting a friend and noticed something that convinced me wives should be paid. This friend leaned back in his chair and some money fell out of his pocket on the floor. His wife picked it up and was tickled to death!”— Which goes to show absolutely that no bachelor should have been interviewed. (A man Is a bachelor because he has more sympathy than the married man.) As long as Howard County continues to oend George W. Freeman to the Legislature her women need not anticipate his support for a compulsory wage law for housewives. “Nothin’ to it,” said the genial George. “They’d better pay us men. to my way of thinking.” And Freeman Is married. A Serious Question Tt’s an embarrassing proposition to approach a man with a serious question, and have him explode with laughter as did Representative Barnard F. Haines of Avilla—a married man to boot. "Ho! Ho! Ho!” said Haines. It was useless to argue with him. “But. listen, Hajnes (a familiar way by which newspaper men address Representatives after they have known them three days), don’t you really see a practical side to this matter?” “Say, if you had to pay your wife $lO or sls a wesk to do tne housework, you’d go absolutely broke,” interjected the Gentleman from Noble. Haines was right. He’s Married, Too “Quote me as laughing loud and long,” was Senator Rowland H. Hill’s rejoinder to the question. Senator Hill, too, is married. "Darned if that ain’t the silliest thing I ever heard of,” ejaculated the princely Zell C. Swain, secretary of the Senate and a jolly bloko, too. Although Representative Antoinette C. Hagenwald, Terre Haile’s woman representative, could not be located, it was rumored in well-in-formed circles that Mrs. Hagenwald is strongly In favor of an ad valorem wage for all wives. This will eliminate many. It would be class legislation and probably would be ruled unconsitutional. Meanwhile the proposal is blooming with all tb> rapidity of a century plant. f I

NEW DUTIES LAID TD US. AGENTS Solons Say Dry Enforcement Changes Hands, That enforcement of the State prohibition law comes under jurisdiction of the Federal enforcement officers by passage of the Wright bill is indicated in a statement of Senator Moorhead. Indianapolis, Indiana Senate finance committee chairman, that the attorney general did not need money for enforcement and the appropriation was cut $20,000 for the biennial period. Moorhead said Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom stated under the Wright bill enforcement would pass from jurisdiction of the State officials to Federal officiate and appropriation was unnecessary. The Wright law makes the State prohibition statutes conform to the Volstead act, under which permits for sale of Intoxicating liquors are issued by Federal enforcement officers. Question of sale of whisky under Federal permit by druggists on prescriptions is debatable, legislators says. s SOLID POTATO TRAIN Thousands of Bushels Brought to Seymour For Seed.
