DIR. HUGHES LECTURE.
Distinguished Speaker Inter-
oeted g Large Audience at
the M. e. Church.. 's

:"
titled the high expectations Of Little
Falls citisens last night in his elO-
quent and mastery lecture, ''rhe
] Evolution ot Woman" given In the
NJ. f. church. /. RI
~ large AMI appreciative audience
greeted the lecturer, every available
seat In the church being taken, and
DR.. Hughes remarked afterw ard that
he could not nave asked for a more
attentive or sympathetic hearing
than was afforded him by all present.
Doctor Hug he's 10 one VI the youn-
ger men In the Methodist Episcopal
church, but has already, By his
original methods and able thinking.
come to occupy some Of the leading
pulpits In our land. He ia a clear,
forceful and convincing speaker, and
al! who heard his lecture last night
will remember it In the years to come
az one of the b-st lectures our TOW
people have ever heard.
The lecturer v az introduced by the
pastor Ut the church, Rev. W. H.
Easton. who is To be congratulated
ON having provided Little Falls with
such a treat. The subject was dealt
with by comparison 1T the present
social standing Of the womanhood
today with that Ut the highest civil
izations Of the past, such as Greece
and Rome. Then woman had no
standing socially, Or before the law
being regarded merely AZ a ''thfng,"
not 4 ''persun."
Then he showed how she gradually
developed into higher and higher
type Ia an Industrial and educational
sense, and finally she has come now
to the point where it will be only
ma tier Of time when she will have
political and civic duties to perform
as well.
The charge that woman had no
right to NEEDLE with mems work
today, taking away their jobs and
filing their positions, was ably met
when the lecturer showed how that
all the Industrial arts in which men
engage for a livelihood now were in
the beginning. done by woman.
Such as weaving, cooking, laundry
ing, etc.
He paid, likewise, the highest trih-
ute to woman when he said that
socially she was the chief centre and
force In society, and that into her
hands was committed a solemn trust
as to what was to be the character
Of that society In which she was the
most Important factor.
Also the fact that 1t is the woman
hood OF America to-day III the CON-
mon schools that IL doing the great
educational work in our land, is an
other evidence Of the evolution Of
woman az an Indispensable factor
and element in the upbuildinK Of our
race.
And finally the home, where it is
claimed, woman alone should toll
and stay as the hOusekeeper, cannot
be divorced from the larger realm OF
the state. " hlch IL only housekeeping
on alarger scale. =
The women certainly had their in-
ninGs last night, and could feel that
in the hands Of DR.. Hughes their
cause was we'll championed and
sustained. -
More lecturers like DR.. Hughes will
always be welcome and receive q
large he airing In Little Falls.
