HUNGER, INFESTATION Dr. Prior stated that is was difficult for doctors and nurses in the past beause the malnutri- tion of the people was empha- sized by the presence of para- sites, whch inflict 99 per cent of the people, and by the pres- ence of relatives at the hos- pitals when patients were. ad- mitted. Speaking of the para- sites, Dr. Prior told of the many different kinds of intestinal worms which reduced the vital- ity of the people. In the case of the African's dowry, western people assumed that it was simply "huying a bride' since the boy's family must pay the girl's. family a sum of money for her. In_ the case of a divorce, the money must be returned. Actually this dowry was a covenant securing the girl's future, Educated girls had a higher dowry price so many of the young men wanted to marry an illiterate girl. who would. obey. Many husbands wanted their wives to have an education after the marriage and this did not increase the dowry price. - When a couple was maried, then man bought all the bride's clothes and gave a feast. Some-! times the couple was in debt for years because of _ this, The church advised against this form of prestige, but could not forbid it. Dr. Prior said that birth mortality was very high SEND - PHOTO ANN LANDERS The fall rally of the Osh- hours a day.
