Woman's Duty
Toward Degenerate Bachelors.

The truth can no longer be suppressed
1t must be acknowledged and acted upon
Last week in a lecture before the stu.
dents of the University of Chicago Chan
cellor E. Benjamin Andrews of the Uni.
versity of Nebraska said:
Bachelors are moral degenerates. From
them emanate most of the sin and shame
of the world. They are lacking in mental
and physical poiSe. The life of no indi-
vidual is complete unless he or she have
life companion Of the opposite sex.
This is a burning truth. In fact. it is
four burning truths. And there was no
better place to spring them than at a CO.
educational institution. 1t will be more
beneficial than another million from
Rockefeller. Of course bachelors are de-
generates. Anybody is a degenerate who
violates the laws of nature, and, as DR..
Andrews continued:
Providence intended that men and
women should marry. The world was
made for the family and not for the indi-
vidual. The unmarried individual of mar
riageable age has no place in society or
in the scheme of the universe Individ-
uals who DO not form legal ties with the
opposite sex will form illegal ones The
world does not want that kind of ties.
Marriage is n good thing. The great
men and women of the word-the ones
whose lives were Sy1ulhetrlcal ana whose
works were best for posterity-haye been
married.
But what are we going to do about it?
The last census shows 6,72G,779 bache-
lors of 20 years or more, and 4.195. 446
spinsters Of the same age. Think of it,.
Over 100000 degenerates bringing
misery to the country. What a shame
when there might as well be $500, S92
minds with but 4.195, 446 thoughts, s.
800 92 hearts that beat as 419J, 446
and surplus of only 2,531 1913 degener-
ates to blast our national life.
Hitherto it has been supposed that
there was a surplus of unmarried women
in the country, bat this condition no
longer exists, if it ever did. In every
state the unmarried men exceed the un-
married women. Even Massachusetts
has a surplus of 1921 bachelors There
are husbands for all and to spare if men
would give up their degenerate existence
Man must he punished. The right Of
counting must be taken from him II is
w0man's duty % assume the initiative
Every unmarried woman should become
missionary to some desert man and
urge him to give up degeneracy. quit
bringing sin and shame into the world.
and devote his attention to supporting a
wife. Are the women Of the country
awake to their responsibility Indian

Not Only the farmers Wife.

\ pen picture of a farmers wife was
viyidly shctched by Eta Utillcr in n
paper read By her at Pomona, Pa:
IN the hrSt place, ? farmers wife
should be an educated. Intelligent human
: BENG, because in these days of electricity
/ and lying machines she has lust as much
! iSht TO know what she is talking about
| as her city friends, who come 10 visit
her IN strawberry time. She should know.
OF course. how 10 turn her last years

new garment of it for a younger member
OF the family, and then, after it has
| served lis time in this smaller capacity
! she should further air her knowledge by
/ tearing 1t up into little strips and having
! II woven into a floor covering.
THAT IS what is called good manage
ment, and happy is the man who is
| blessed with such manager, for he can
! sit quietly in the smoke corner and read
the paper or smoke to his henri con- con-
! tent or possibly, if things disturb his
| serenity. TOO much such as Il crying baby

II read one day that more farmers
wives go insane than any other class of
people, because they lead such monot-
onouS existence; they cannot 20 and come
mt Will, as too often their environments
| i'll the way Of duties are too eX3ctinr
and they are chained down by circum-
stances ofttimes over which they have no
control.
II read few days ago this little ar
tlcle: A question was put to 200 Ma
con, Ga, school teachers. asking who
was the greatest woman in all history.
when n Miss Nickory received the Drize
for her unique and original answer. She
passed over Queen Victoria. Frances
Willard, Helen Gould. and said the great
est woman in all history was the Mis-
sourl farmers wife of moderate means,
In her own words, she declared. "Thp
wife of the Missouri farmer OF moderate
means who does her own cooking. iron
ing, brings up large family Of boys ana
girls to be useful members of society
and finds time for her own intellectual
and moral Improvement, is the greatest
woman in all history and we say amen"
