When a man of thought and conser-
vatism advocates woman suffrage. 1t is
interesting to know what he has to say
1t is usually we'll worth while.
SO 1t is in the case of DR.. w. H. Nc
Glauflin, who made a talk on the subject
at the last meeting of the Atlanta Equal
Suffrage association.
Dr. McGlaufiin first spoke briefly Of
traits of character most needed in those
who advocate reform measures, and the
kinship of genuine reformers in all ages
and lands, whether the matters iiirVived
are social. political, moral or religious.
Then he came to tie pith of his sub
ject:
Virtue and vice, order and anarchy.
wisdom and ignorance do not divide along
the line of sex.
Some lecturers leave the impression
that God exhausted His store of all
things worthy when he created woman;
that men for the most part are monsters,
whose chief delight, as whose persistent
purpose, has been and is to tyrannize over
the opposite sex.
ION the other hand there are both men
and women who advocate the contrary
view and tell us that the gentler sex is
weak, wicked. and woe-producing. John
]. ingalls, declared that woman, as COM
pared with man, is inferior and defective,
physically, intellectually and morally;
that she originates nothing; that instead
of courage she has craft that she sup
ports candidates for office, not on princi-
pie, but on account of becoming dress (;
that in her own callings she is surpassed
by men, as men are the best cooks, musi-
clans, dressmakers and nurses.
1.-The appeal to facts seems to disclose
that men and women have walked togeth-
er in the attainment Of what is best, and
together they have sunk to the lowest
depths of infamy. When one has suffered,
the other has suffered; If one has re-
joiced, the joy has been impaired. Wo-
men and men are weak, wicked and Woe
producing; women and men are heroes.
prophets, sages and martyrs.
'In the industrial world, woman now
as never before, stands with man in the
production of wealth and administration

mountain girls.
These families" says the Sun. ARE
known as the mountain white girls, who
are usually very poor, and these girls live
lives of drudgery In their poor homes, be-
side which favorable domestice service
would seem a very paradise.
IL Is the girls Of this type that the
wealthy citizens OF Luray are attempting
TO bring into a more congenial field OF Ia
bor with improved opportunities for edu-
cation. The money for the school was
raised by private subscription.
The girls must know how to read and
write. have physical strength and good
character. All the cost Of training is. de-
frayed by the institution but the student
must obligate herself at the end Of six
months to take position selected by the
managers.
They are taught all improved methods
OF homework, and are prepared for gen.
eral housework. They are taught TO be
neat and the suitable clothing needed is
enjoined. Particular effort Is made to In

specting knowledge of their own place.

services.

The girl can either pay her own fare
TO the city or the employer can pay II and
take Il out of her wages.
Whenever a girl intends to leave she
must notify her employer and also the
training school"
II is stated that the scheme has been a
success from the start. Girls are eager TO
come IN, and employers are plentiful.
The managers could only accommodate
20 pupils at the beginning, but they have
moved into a commodious place where $50
can be accommodated.
Two hundred have already been prom
ised to Pittsburg and more. could have
been booked there.
There seems to be healthy and enthu-
siastic spirit in the Luray venture and
the country home readers can turn the
idea over in their minds and find out how
such a scheme would work down this
way.
II our country girls in remote rural dis
tricts could be properly trained in the
same manner, and only worked six months
afterwards for an employer, they would
be real missionaries to their own people
when they went back to their homes. The
best charity in the world is that which
makes the object self-supporting and self
sustaining. Otherwise the waste is i'm
measurable.

of affairs. It is said that not less than
100000 women are now wage-earners in
the United States. Whether as doctors or
dentists. as surgeons or sculptors, as
preachers or painters, as architects or ac-
countants, as stenographers or secreta-
ries, or scientists, as writers or walters,
woman has compelled the acknowledg-
ment of her great ability even from the
most prejudiced opponents.
GAS woman works and earns, so she
saves and owns. Being an owner and a
taxpayer. she is not only entitled to take
her place with those who administer af
fairs through the ballot box, but II is TO
the interest of affairs that this should be
so.
"As to her intellectual ability. it has
been noted that the bureau Of education
shows that in every part of our country
much greater number of girls are being
graduated from the high schools than
boys. The circumstance that college grad
yates are for the most part men, does
not argue against woman's ability, but
reminds US that woman has not generally
been allowed entrance to these institu-
lions. Wherever she has been given the
opportunity, she has justified the wisdom
Of those who opened the door.

some trusted servant with them to report
to the fire master in his place. AS soon
as he reported he was to fall in line and
go to work by passing the buckets OF
water to the fire or to pass them back to
be reflled. Ladders were kept at the
market and guard house and it took from
Is to 20 men to carry them. Each house,
holder was to put a light in the front wins
dow for the benefit of those going to the
fire.
Box fire engines were later introduced.

but which were filled by buckets drawn
up to the pump and filled and then taken
to the fire; this was kept up, this filling
of buckets and taking them on an engine
to the fire, till either the fire burned out
of itself or was accidentally extin-
guished.
The suction engine was then introduced
and prior to 1910 steamer built. But
the prejudice against it was so great that
it was refused by the fire department.
In 1865 one of the aldermen OF the city
made a motion before the city council
that they encourage the purchase of a
steam fire engine by the volunteer fire
companies He proposed to do this by
making a loan to each company of $1,000
and by Offering prize TO the first COM
pany 70 purchase one. Now the chief OF
the nre department opposed Tins ih0tioH
for the simple reason that hand engines
would not exhaust the water supply for
eight hours, while steam engine would
exhaust 1t in two. The alderman then
turned to him and asked if it would not
be better to put the fire out in two hours
than in eight? A little hacked" the
chief replied: II never thought of that.
