ascent of centuries woman is now at the
side of man, and not behind him, receiy-
ing equal rights because she deserved them,
being as gloriously prepared for her share
in domestic economy as he is for his, and
being superior to him in morality ansi con-
servation of the best that there is in the
race. She shares with him his sports and
makes them the better for the sharing.
She contends with him for honors in the
highest realms of scholarship and often
wrests them from his hand She bursts
asunder the prudery with which men have
surrounded her and goes into the homes of
vice and haunts of sin to raise the fallen
and bring hope to the sin-stricken and she
comes forth unsullied She is fast press
ing towards that goal of her effort, when
the man who is merely her equal in the
various activities of life which they divide
between them, must also be her equal in
morality. Then indeed will the Ascent of
Man, as set forth by Henry Drummond,
be completed.
The half has not yet been said, but
space presses. How easy to enlarge on
the conquest of Nature forces, the tend
ency towards proft-sharing, the broaden
ing of the church, the passing of creed
tests and UNCONVENTIONAL shibboleths and
the aroused activities of the young in
every denomination Perhaps more anon.
