A boy playing with dolls is not a more shocking sight to a conventional world than a girl taking a clock to pieces to see how the wheels go round. But man has never been able to keep away from woman the brains he developed by the use of tools. Try as he might no man has ever succeeded in having his smart- ness entailed in the male line. Quite the contrary. While the son might succeed the father in his business, it has been usually the daughter who succeeded to the brains that built up the busines The result has been a time limit on business prosperity in a family of “three generations from shirt- s to shirtsleeves" due to shutting the daughters up in the home, in short,—away from the tool-chest. Not being able to maintain the same corner on brains that he has on his tool- chest, it has happened that man has been astounded every now and then to find a woman picking up one of his discarded tools and beating him with it. It is just this that Ruth Law has so wonderfully done. Ruth Law's old biplane is not more despised in aviation circles than the ballot in the minds of legions of men. “What do you want the vote for, anyway? You can’t do anything with it,” is the statement that is met by the suffrage worker day in and day out. But, if we may believe the stories that are pouring in from all over the world where women vote, just as Ruth Law beat man’s record with a tool he despised, so women are getting a surprising amount of huma lation passed and enforced by means a political tool disdained by men. This is not to say that woman has used the vote to introduce the millennium in politics. Far from it. But she has done much that has been considered impossible, and even many of her failures may properly be charged up to her age-long exclusion from the tool- chest. atably: In the where politics are controlled by men, voting machines gave immediate election returns. After which the East sat for days waiting with small patience for the election returns from the est, where women and men control poli- and where the votes were being counted hand just as in the days of Benjamin Franklin The Outlook Hook—When a woman loses her husband she has to look out for number one.
