A Womans Viewpoint BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

'T'HE women's rights movement reached Its zenith when Governor Ferguson pardoned Mrs. Boone of Dallas, Tex., for the murder of her husband’s paramou”. Pear! Hall. That grand old masculine standby, the unwritten law, was lugged in at the last minute. “A woman." says Ma Ferguson. •Tias the right to defend her home.” It's fair enough. If we are to keep on using the old alibi. If men have a right to defend their homes with shotguns, women should be accorded the same privilege. But the unwritten law is bunk. It was bunk when It w*as first yented so that a man who couldn’t keep his wife in love with him did not have to suffer for a crime, and \ It s bunk when utilized as a protection for women. Love Is not a possession. You can t list it with your material assets, or lock it up as you do your Jewels and money, or prevent it from escaping you by policing your premises. It's a blessing bestowed from outside sources, intangible as the air you breathe, as capable of breaking away from home walls as an Arabian Nights djinn. Unfortunately the courts, as well as angry wives, confuse love with passion, which is a pity. So far as I can see. Mrs. Boone s little mad aopll which resulted in Pearl Hail’s departure from this world, may keep her home intact for a time, but will certainly not add to its pleasure or peace. Domestic serenity has never yet been preserved with the shotgun. A husband may feel momentarily flattered bj the attention, although the chancps are good he will net develop into a reliable spouse just

When Stanley Obroskl hurried from the girls’ Tom Orman hailed him drunkenly: “What were you doing in there?” “I was looking for Rhonda.” Obroski quavered. “Liar!” Orman thundered. “You came out after Rhonda went in. You were looking for Naomi. She's my girl. If I find you there again, I'll kill you!”

"Yes. sir,” Obroski replied meekly and Blunk away. Now the girls heard Orman approaching. “He’ll kill me.” Naomi shuddered. The tent flap was thrust violently aside and the director entered. “Look here, you,” he snarled at Naomi, “if I catch you playing around with that guy again, I'll beat you to a pulp!”

“You’re all wrong,” Naomi cried fearfully. “He came to see Rhonda.” Tom Orman turned to the other girl. “Is that on the level?” he asked. “Sure,” gtie answered calmly, “I asked him to come.” Rhonda lied nobly to save Naomi from the wrath of the drunken director, but little did she anticipate the consequences!

After Orman left, Rhonda said sharply: “I’m hired to double for you in pictures, not in your love affairs.” Now Orman visited Bill West, Rhonda’s suitor. “Hello, Tom!” said West. “Anything wrong?” “Not now, but there was. I just chased Obroski out of the girls’ tent. He was there wiih Rhonda.”
