By Josephine Richardson I have been reading the histories of several centuries ago and how the politics were conducted then and compar ing them with the present state of affairs. Back as far as 1900 and 1910 there were a few zealous wumen trying to make speeches in behalf of "women suffrage" and they were merely greeted with scorn. But times have changed. Everything is in the hands of women. Men has at least been put out in his proper place and kept there. I well remember when a young friend of mine had just been elected as Speaker of the House of Representatives when she decided to get married. I being an old friend tried to persuade her to put it off but she paid no attention and carried out her desire. Of course her husband was desirous of helping her as much as possible and she, poor infatuated thing was glad to see him display so much interest in her undertakings. I myself have had four husbands divorcing all but one, and he has passed to a happier world, so I knew more about them than she. But she knew i: jII so I said no more about it. One evening. Sen. Margaret Chapelle gave a reception for her friends and their hus bands. I was thinking of leaving when I saw my friend's husband and talking to a we?k minded woman who thought men were superior to women. I said nothing about it. lit my cigarette and thought a good deal as I strolled homeward. The next evening my suspicions were verified for there he was perched upon a box in the middle of the street preaching men's rights. I called on my friend and proposed a walk. Of course we walked in the direction of the speech. When we arrived there, she was only amused at first but when she got the drift of his speech she was furious. She rushed to where he was, took him by the collar and waltzed him home. He now has no interest in politics and stays home with his children like any man should, while his wife attends the meetings I merely want this to oe a warning to women whose husbands are interested in politics, for remember the day is past when men were the lords of creation.
