WOMAN'S SIGHT TO "POP THE QUESTION" (By United Press Lsssed Wire) SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 7.? It Is "woman's prerogative to "pep the question." This Is the opinion of Alfred H.

Bernard Shaw tells us that woman will propose anyway, even If she has to chase a man all over Europe and into the Pyrennes moun- tains. It ought to be so. It is the cosmic principle."
