Sterti eed THE MODERN WOMay Suffrage Facts and Fancies By ANNA CADOGAN ETZ Men Should Worry OR centuries the antique man has with pious gratitude prayed in the morning, “Thank God, I was not born a woman!” Let the war continue long enough and it may be the woman who will be praying, “Thank God, I was not born a man!” Men should worry. It has been their world, but if they continue eliminating the strong, brave men and leave the wise, good women ve it will be woman’s world. Simple Arithmetic. It is related of an inland South American country that the large excess of females has raised the value of masculinity; that the men are kept in cotton to preserve them. But that offers cold consolation to the modern man. Modern woman knows the weakness of modern man. If it becomes her world the latch key passes from him; no more running about nights for him. She will insist on sharing with him that long list of virtues he has so sedulously admired in her and omitted in himself. ‘To hear men talk about chivalry as a loss to be reckoned with in the event of equal suffrage, one would infer that men were chiefly occupied in placing chairs for women to sit in. But to trace through history the race life of woman which she began as a slave; to mark her struggles for education, control of her property and her children, and the right to enter the professions, is to find men chiefly occupied in placing stumbling blocks. ‘There is one thing in this world that men can’t blame women for, and that is Politics. And if you will believe the tales that men tell, Politics are rotten. ‘ id our Mark Twain, ‘is the only animal who blushes—or needs to.” One would argue that the hour had struck for the exercise of this faculty; that having failed in politics man would invite the co- operation of woman. Not so. He uses his own confessed failure as an argument for his continued right of exclusive domain. What It Is HAT is feminism? It is an aspiration for that day to dawn when it will be no more necessary to advertise a woman speaker as “also a good wife and mother and a notable housekeeper” than it is to advertise a man lecturer as “a faithful husband, a fond father, and a notable heaver of wood and snow.” Why She Objects I isn’t “taxation without representation” that puts the keen edge on my protest against the injustice of a man-controlled government, it is taxation without property. I mortgage my house, and, in the form of increased interest, the mortgage tax is paid by me. The assessors do not the mortgage from my assessment and ap,: I find myself paying taxes on mo; a) I borrowed because I didn’t have pe “ As the iron enters my soul I am able understand why the antis recruit % _ cessfully among the rich.

An Example RUMOR comes from New Jersey of 3 woman secking nomination in oppos. tion to her husband so that, whatever pens, the office will remain in the family. A similar, yet unlike, instance happens years ago in Utah when Martha Cannon, having been put away by her husband as a plural and superfluous wife, ran against him for the state senate, and beating hin became the first woman senator in the coun. try. He was first also: the first to leam tht the age-long immunity with which men had exploited women no longer protected him when the discarded spouse happened to be a political equal and the ballot box registerd the sentiments of women as well as men, The Making of a Feminist THe other day little Ethel Schutt, aged seven, swam the Delaware, 24% miks in 31 minutes. Her course against wind and tide was followed by a press boat whose cupants heralded the achievement to a admiring world. If the world is not to be woman's oyster the ground that she is not strong enough to open it, a bad start has been made in the education of hel Schutt. She should have been spanked and sent to bed. 4s the direct consequence of this applause de will go through life attempting other hazans held sacred to men’s endeavors, and wha she is told that she can’t vote because she can’t fight, no one can make her believe it The Making of a Suffragist H SR anti-suffrage convictions were deep and strong. She watched with é& dain the marching hosts of women in the suffrage parade. ‘Then presently she fouxd herself back in her hotel dining room and sant, dark-skinned waiter suavey saying, comment on the parade as @ urgent demand for the vote, “Well, I ges we'll have to let you have it.” She blinked, swallowed twice and, lo, a suffragist "8 born.
