FINAL TERROR FOR MEN.
MORAL PEDIGREES TO BE- PUT -ON RECORD. Washington (D.C.), Match 30. Despatches from Glen Campbell (Pennsylvania), state that husbands of that community in the future will be rated under a "moral pedigree." Intended husbands will also. come under the same classification. At least, so say 36 of Glen Campbell's leading women, who have formed a secret association, the object of which will be to "know a man morally." The rew organisation was* formed to clean up- tho morals of the community, particularly the morals of husbands. The women are establishing a sort of "moral credit bureau," which proposes to gather all the requisite facts i regarding a husband's conduct, keep it on file at headquarters, and submit a confidential report to any woman who suspects her mate and asks for his rating. "There should bp a society like the one we have organised in every community," says one member. "We are convinced that if women ever attempt to 'get away' with what the average man pulls off, the divorce Calendar would be as crowded as the old-time bar-room. We are going to choige this. Before we finish we will 'have the 'moral pedigree' of every husband and intended husband I.Sfi community."
