A Woman’s Viewpoint BY MRS. W ALTER FERGUSON

C'i ENTLEMEN. take off your hats J to Mrs. Roberta West Nicholson. the modern Jeanne and Arc who comes to the succor of the oppressed American male. A bill prohibiting suits for alienation of affections, seduction and ire ch of promise to marry has been introduced in the Indiana General Assembly by Rep. Nicholson - on? mav she legislate! If passet .. will stop one of our worst rackets and pull the of a hundred th tvand Jackieg lawyers. We have marvelled at the apparent help’essness of men and court! to suppress that racket. It is gratifying to find a woman tackling the problem by the simple process of asking to outlaw it from the dockets. Tne whole conception of feminine equality is destroyed every time a woman hales a man Into court and collects because he decides he doesn't want to merry her. The theory that money pays .'or broken hearts is a repudiation cf all that is decent and ethical and fine In the relationship of men and women. When we gave the courts jurisdiction over the affections, we established a form oT banditry which armed every unmoral woman with a deadly weapon and left every sucker with money her easy prey—to say nothing of increasing the possibilities of loot for lawyers. One aspect of the matter has b • n especially curious it is invariably the good-looking dame with the high-powered sex appeal who gets the sympathy and the money. Although it is obvious she can step out the day after tomorrow and grab herself another and

SOME idea of the size of Alaska can be gained by superimposing a map f this country upon a map. in the same scale, of the United Sites. If this were done, and Point Barrow piaced at Duluth, Minn., the Aleutian Archipelago would touch Los Angeles, while the southeastern point of Alaska would rest upon Savannah, Ga. • • • NEXT—Where is eavesdropping against the law?

As the captive Obroski peered fearfully at the three strange figures which were his companions in the prison hut. one of them spoke. “How did the Basuto get you, Bwana Simba?’’ Bwana Simba was the name the blacks of the safari had given Obroski. because in the movie he was to play the part of the Lion Man.

“Kwamudi!” Obroski exclaimed almost joyfully. for the man who had spoken was the chief of the safari’s blacks. “Well, it didn’t do you much good to run away—” He almost added, “either,” but stopped himself in time. “They attacked," Obroski continued, “and I was captured. When diduhey get you?”

“Early this day,” Kwamudi replied. “I go after mv people. I beg all to come back to safari. Then Basuto jump from forest. They kill many my people.” Obroski shuddered as he asked: “What are they going to do with you? Why didn’t they kill you when they killed the others? Why are they keeping you captive?”

Kwamudi answered in a hopeless tone. “They not kill you, they not kill Kwamudi, they not kill these others —yet—all for same reason. 1 * “Why?” asked Obroski, leaning forward anxiously. “What do they want to kill us for?” Kwamudi nodded philosophically. “They torture us—they killthen. eat!”
