A native journal of British India
says;
"Within five short years a great
change has come over a section Oh
the native population of Lahore. Ger
tain bold men have begun to take out
their wives in the evenings for
drive in open vehicles. A week ago
we saw the daughter of a man Of
position walking with her father on
the railroad platform at Lahore. She
was dressed in what seemed like an
English gown, had English shoes on,
and wheknker husband came up she
left her fatner and walked about with
him. Her face was quite uncovered
Let those who have relatives in
Lahore go there and see for them
selves Lhe state qsDRtngs. They Will
see wives going o louder to shout
der with their husbands in the even
ings. having said good-by to the old
restrictions. A man who would dare
to reimpose the old manners on his
womenkind would receive scant court
esy."
An American reads this with
smile of derision, but are cuStims In
India any more ridiculous than the
conservatism of America, which for
bids a woman to go to the polls with
her father or her husband and drop
a slip of paper into a ballot box?
The arguments put forth today
against woman suffrage will be as
amusing to the next generation as the
CONSERVATION of this East Indian edi-
tor over the advanced" women who
are so sbold and unfeminine as to
walk in public with uncovered faces
and in company with their fathers and
husbands.
