MHUU men who Lave been

unspeakably glvon to nerves scarcely
cau credit the statement that women

an American representative. And

faith to Mlna Wlllard, who Iibb shown
herself to possess courage undaunted
by mlco, bugs, thunderstorms nud fly

Tho fact that women nro flying

that women can stand much more pain

gressional committee investigating the
sugar trust, Is head of tho Federal
Sugar Rollnlng company. For many
years ho has fought tho big combina
tion, and In the course of his testi
mony ho produced letters which pur
port to show that tho trust was n vio
lator of the Sherman law for at least
a short tlmo after the enactment of
that statute. Incidentally it was de
veloped that Spreckcls' light against
tho American Sugar Itcllnlng company
was tho causo of an estrangement
that separated him from his father
nnd brothers for many years. Tim fam

ands of miles away, awaits their
coming, all unconscious of tho battle
ccuo of death.
It is tho kind of courago that has
built empires, founded cities and per
petuated tho gentler, purer things of
llfo.
And it is tho kind of courago that
makes mon bow their heads when tho
word "mother" Is mentioned, tho kind
of courago that shames n man from
tho path of grossness nnd crlmo, tho
courago that inspires and Idealizes
life.
Again, it is tho sort of courage that
enables n weak woman to go into tho
busy, blood supping strugglo of tho
metropolis, where human ghouls hunt
Innocent victims, and there, despite
tho temptations and tho despair, win
an honest siiRteuauce, turning her
back upon tho gay and frivolous and
daugerouH llfo as a thing to bo spurn
ed and feared. This is tho real cour
age, tho courago that is worthy of tho
name. And whllo only a few of Eve's
daughters may lilt through tho am
bient on strange, blrdllko machines,
thousands may and must exhibit that
wonderful courago of faithfully light
ing tho battle of life, with no mark
against tho purity of tho record or
stnln upon tho escutcheon of con
science Oertalnly women can becomo aero
nauts. They can becomo nnythlng that
comports with woman's modesty and
splie-v, and tho sphere Is wider than
. was, much wider, And It has broad
ened becauso woman bus Insisted on
her rights to llvo something of an In
dividual life to llvo a part of what
sho Is.
Why should mow man arrogate to
himself tho authority of denying to
woman tho right to fly?
if she wants to fly let her. In a way
she always has flown ijulto high. Any
man who has successfully pursued
and captured a particular woman
knows that sho used all modes of
travel in tho merry chaso of lovo, and
no man who has followed woman
through Agapemono will deny sho can
"go some," whether on foot, on horse
back or via tho aeroplane.
