Just think, she says, how tired she'd be, if our telephone wasn't here to help her do her errands every day. And tonight, she says. Daddy w ill call us from 'way, 'way off, to say Good night and tell us when he'll be home. I'm going to stay right here beside the telephone until Daddy calls.

F ro m the field of ch a tte r, w here the jokesm iths have m isplaced them so long, they have risen to professional prom inence in the serious business of lecturing. So d eclared R alph M cC allister, di rec to r of the Adult E ducation coun cil. Women, though not dom inating the lectu re p latform , will hold an enviable place alongside m en, he declared. “ T here isn 't any doubt th a t wom en have com e of age when it com es to le ctu rin g ,” said M cC allister. Gone is the fem inine viewpoint th a t w as ty p ical of the w om an sp e ak e r of the old days. Now h er appro ach to a su b ject is the sam e as th a t of a m an. She stan d s on her own feet and discusses the sa m e problem s th a t m en do. “ T here a re women lectu rin g to day who will talk politics, econom ics and world problem s as well as any m an. Books, lite ra tu re and p e r sonal rem iniscences a re as m uch theirs to talk about as anybody’s. “ They a re n 't yet in dem and as m uch as m en, but th e ir p restig e is growing. Although a w om an is re ferred to in je st as being a n atu ra l talk er, th e re is no doubt th a t she gives public speaking m ore serious thought and attention and study than does a m an. “ A w om an sp eak er is m ore con scientious th an a m an about p re p a ration, I believe. She m ak es m ore of an effort to put herself ac ro ss.” However, Mr. M cCallister ad m it ted, all this does not yet m ak e h er a dangerous com petitor of the m ale lectu rer. “ Our m en are still m ore in d e m and th an our women as le c tu r e r s ,” he said. “ T h a t’s because m en ’s groups alw ays w ant a m an, and w om en’s clubs alw ays insist on a m an as th eir sp e a k e r.” Mr. M cC allister pointed out how topics chosen by women sp eak ers have changed. F o rm e rly a w om an would speak on: “A W om an’s View of P o litics.” Now it’s: “ W hat’s the M atter With P o litics?” or a g en eral subject, “ The W ashington S cene.” F o rm erly , he said a w om an m ight ap p ear to speak on “ Your Children and M ine.” Now, with w om en as sum ing as m uch im p o rtan ce as m en in c e rta in fields, it is easy to obtain a w om an who can discuss “ The Psychology of the A dolescent.” M r. M cC allister believes, from the Adult E ducation council’s ex p eri ence, th a t about one of five im p o r ta n t le ctu rers today a re women. M rs. Roosevelt, who is not m anag ed by his b u reau , he points to as the highest paid le c tu re r in the coun try and one of the le ad e rs in the field of fem inine public speaking. Glass Now Can Solve Also the Photo Problem A new heat-absorbing plate glass has been discovered to help solve one problem of m illions of am a te u r photographers—not to m ention pro fessional picture m ak ers. Although designed principally for store windows in \yhijh perishable goods a re displayed, the new glass known as “ aklo” will red u ce heat from photo en larg ers — a m a jo r source of dam ag ed or destroyed neg atives. P laced betw een a hot in candescent lam p and a fragile n eg a tive in the enlarging process, the glass absorbs so m uch of the ra d ia t ed h eat th a t the negative scarcely becom es w arm . A nother use for the h eat-ab so rb ing glass is to screen flood lights during the photography of flowers w here fast work ordinarily is neces sa ry to prev en t drooping caused by the h eat from the huge light bulbs. ♦♦♦♦♦»♦♦♦♦♦♦»»♦»♦»»♦»♦»♦♦»»♦♦»»♦♦♦♦♦»»♦s s»♦»♦»»»♦»♦♦♦ Y NEW S B y Mrs. Joe Utley A very im portant meeting is to be held Friday, October -1 , in the Leg ion hall.
