A Woman's Viewpoint BY MRS WALTER FERGUSON

MANY people profess surprise at the reluctance with which young men now approach the altar. Yet there should be nothing puzzling when you consider the facts confronting them. Their forefathers hardly let one wife get cold in her grave before they led another to the kitchen. But ‘ it would be foolish to believe they! always married so readily because they loved so much. On the contrary, marriage was an economic necessity. If they were widowers they had houses full of children. They couldn't always afford servants. They had to have wives. I The canny young man nowadays,! however, faces a different problem He understands all too well that in taking a wife he is indulging in a luxury. Unless his desire is far more powerful than his caution, he will pause a while before he assumes the matrimonial yoke. A wife, alas, is now a liability—and a big one. Tne recent hullabaloo about denying jobs to married women has not increased mans incentive to marry. When he lives in a world where work in the home has been reduced to a minimum, and where a wife can not hold a paying job, it’s up to him to think fast before he be- | comes engaged. Unless he is mid- i dle-aged, his salary is seldom large! enough to support - family in idle-; ness. Hence the co go child- I less, which gene -wy causes the wife j to be discontented. If they live in a small apartment, the Mrs. only j has the furniture to dust and a little food for two to prepare.

POLICE PISTOL EXPERT CONDEMNS HOLSTERS Quirk Draw Impossible, Claims Firearms School Instructor. In his annual report to Chief Mike Morrissey, Sergt. Harry W. Canterbury, instructor of the police firearms school, stated that holsters now worn by members of the force ‘ should be condemned.” He said he found that a quick draw can not be executed from the holsters and that the grip of the guns were in such a position that they could not be grasped quickly. He also reported that by reloading empty cases of ammunition the department had been able to make large savings in the ammunition bills. He reported that the department is making its own shotgun shells. LOCAL YOUTH ENLISTS Robert Thompson, Former Butler Swimmer, Joins Navy.

TARZAN AND THE LION MAN

Major White sprang forward to halt Orman’s savage attack on Kwamudi, which might have such dire results for the whole safari. Pat O'Gradv. assistant director, ran up to help him. crying: "Lay off. Tom! You're full of hooch.” Pat turned to White. "You handle things, Major. Get us out of this mess.”

The Englishman persuaded Kwamudi to go on by offering a bonus and granting his demand that his men were not be be whipped. “But we're not through yet” Major White told Pat gravely. “There are the Basutos. They'll get some more of us tomorrow —and some tne next day! We really ought to go back.”

As the brief equatorial twilight ushered in the night, Pat's eyes wandered over the camp. The appearance of the squatting Arabs was little different from ordinarily, yet he sensed a distinction. He noted the air of constraint, the tenseness—as though all were waiting for something to happen, they knew not what.

In the darkness Obroski, the Lion Man, paused at the girls’ tent. “It's me—Stanley,” he called softly. “I’d have come sooner,” he said as Naomi Madison invited him in, “except I thought Orman might be here.
