Sacred prayer meal bowl of a rain priest. Note the ornaments of frogs and dragon_fIies, symbols of water needed for the crops Along with taking precedence oxcv the men in carrying the group names, the women own the houses. A man may, by the lal)or of his own liands, erect a new house for his wife, from quarrying the rock to laying the roof, while she does nothing more than plaster the walls; yet let a divorce and separation take place, and the property unquestioningly l)elongs to her. The Zuiii are as monog- amous a people as we. They look with repugnance not only upon polygamy, hut also upon subsequent marriage with a former wife's sister or relative. At the same time, divorce is easy. Persons have only to separate. A man tired of his wife leaves her. For a woman the procedure is not cjuite so simple owing to her propertN' right in the house; but at that, she need only nag and abuse her husband until he takes his little bundle of clothes and returns to his natal home. If misplaced affection or stubbornness prevent him from taking the hint, she can ha\'e recourse to the more drastic method of simply installing his chosen successor, in which case nothing remains for the deposed husband but to lea^■e cpiietly. It would certainly seem as if the Ziuii had long ago achieved for them- selves some of the most radical portions of even the ultra-feministic program.
