Efforts of a number of women to eradi-

Only In courage and in the spirit Of

tegrity OF the nation be maintained.
Only by the military spirit and by mill
tary preparation can we safeguard our
selves against foreign aggression and do
mestic turbulence. In his address, Con-
gresham Henry Cabot Lodge made one
statement of fact which embodied all
the teachings Of history. He said
The administrations OF Jefferson and
Madison, attempted to meet these attacks
of ENGLAND and france, with diplomacy,
which was worthless because not backed
by either ura or force and with
commercial restrictions which injured US
more than those against whom they
were aimed.
And today. just as in 1872, we would
have to fight for safety among the ma
lions for our territory and our citizens.

courage which put vast armies in the

At least one-third of the voters in cities
are deprived of their vote at municipal
elections, which are held in the spring.

ton to spare the time from business or
necessary vocationS.
Carried to its logical conclusions. this
argument would apply to all elections ex-
ceps Presidential ones. Fully twenty per
cent. of the voters come out only once
in four years. Every voter has the
chance to vote in the spring as we'll as
in the fall, and. if he does not, it is his
