It has conic. Womun extentled the velvet gVtve while suf irajfe Initio; in the balance. Now that her position i.i secure, the , iron hand is showing through. One of tlie mont widely rviul of ; the woman's, miiKH'.ines has this month' an editorial in which it warns girls against the type of man who dislikes children. "The man to whom a girl trusts her future should he many things. He should he clean, honest, industrious, ambitious, de pendable and loyal. But most of all and this vital point is the .one' the average girl considers least he should be an excellent potential father." Now this is serious enough.. But this is only on page 24- After pages about women. in office, and "you can furnish the new home for a thousand dollars" if you use only rag rugs, nnrt how men do hate rag rugs! and fiction and fashion and things, yon come to Page 811. "When Father Helps With the Wash." By a man, too! "There are many tasks upon the farm that no woman should ever undertake or be permitted to discharge, whatever the ex ignacy, and there are miiny duties about the house that a bungl ing man will mess up that he had better let them alone except in I'xtrema emergency. But the great mass of routine duties of life my be performed by.eitlieV a mail or a woman, and whether they shall be performed by the husband or by the wife or by the two working together is n matter of circumstance and not of sex." The family is n unit, the writer says. There are times when a woman may have to turn lo and do a bit of "man's work," and tjmes when the man should help with the washing. And If you are a young family trying to build up for the future, ftnd you are not willing to do the washing lest you lower your social dignity, then you are no true American. Here it is, gentlemen, in all its rulhlcssness. It is no longer enough for you to expect your wife to be a good mother. You have got to be n good father, too. And you have got to help wash or buy a nice little motor-driven helper lo take your place. There are, however, no nice little motors to take your place at fathering the kiddies. After all, it may not he so difficult. And il is likely to pro duce more happiness than the old way did. The -washing-article-' writer concludes: - :'V! fSTSrsffSft'i "Teamwork in the family as anywhere else is the condition of real success. Such a family meets its problems as Ihey arise and solves them in the way that is best for all concerned. This, as I sen II, Is the basis of real Americanism." Remember the soldier lads tomorrow. Hull up a big vole for the bonus. They're deserving of every cent they get and then Make it n definite duty to k the polls tomorrow mid cast your ballot. .Vote early hut not often.

Tho first of these is of chief in terest to America, because the fiKht niriilnst the leiiKiifl In this country has centered iirouiid Article 10.

It Is understood that nn effort' la being made to effect a com promise by which the article will he so modified thnt each atatn will hn hiiuild only to "respect" th Integ rity nnd independence ot other, without the responsibility of "pre serving" them.
