As the law Is a little haxv on the

Van Winkle advised that It all de­
pends.
It may be the man and It
may be the woman, but he says it
can never be both. He says the law
does not recognise such s thing as
there being two heads of a family. It
Is always "the head."
He says usually the man Is ths
head of the family, but that In cases
where the woman was the chief
mainstay of the family, then she
should be the head and would be en­
titled to the vote.
If the husband
were HI. or away much of the time,
or Incapacitated, then the woman
should be considered the head of the
family.
And there you are.
