DOUBTS If BUSINESS GIRLS
ALWAYS MAKE BEST WIVES

LOS ANGELES, Sept 2,-[Editor
herald; Mr.. Newlywed is rather
amusing; he is so positive in his de-
cision of which makes the better wife,
the business girl or the stay at home.
many confound the girl occupying a
chair in an Office and pounding a type
writer or a girl perched on a stool in q
telephone pay station with a business
woman, but they are far apart. We
know he sees everything now through
the rosy hue of his honeymoon and
possibly Mrs. Newlywed was not a
stay at home; but he must remember
there are exceptions to every rule.
have in mind among my own ac-
quaintances many girls who worked in
store or shop or office, after due time
married and began housekeeping, only
to find it, after the novelty had worn
away, very monotonous and unattract-
i've, forgetting in grudgingly getting
the breakfast every morning that they
had to rise to eat it just at such time
before they were married. The swish
of a feather duster in a negro janitors
hand was all right, but daily busting in
the little home is altogether irksome.
[ have yet to see the business woman
who doesn't don a kimono the minute
she reaches her room or home, which
ever it may be. I am afraid his grand
mother neglected to think, and so
through inheritance TO develop MS prdlii
that he might think before he jumped
at positive conclusion after very
little experience When he is 81 and
has seen life on all. sides he will not
then reflect onIhis grandmother, as his
mother comes next.
I never knew a stay at home girl
asking any of the silly questions he
speaks of, and have associated with
them many years. 1t is noble, indeed,
of him to eat anything his wife cooks,
and may he never forget and use the

jority are better off single than mar
ried. 1t is too bad that women should
crowd men out as they have to do,
especially at sewing, as 1 know that the
men would so enjoy to sit at the cleo
trio machines all day, making shirts
and overalls. Probably If the powers
that be would first turn their attention
to the married women that are work.
ing, whose husbands are making fair
pay they would be taking step in the
right direction.
But the widows and orphans must
live, and it isn't always easy to get a
man that is worth having nowadays.
And last, but not least, how many
women do you suppose are working to-
day to support worthless, drunken hus-
bands? In that case the man won't
work. Well, This is a strange world,
my masters" and all we can do is to
each do our little part in it as we'll as
we can. 1 really believe that s. ]. B.
means all right, but in taking work
away from women he would give them
nothing in place of it. And they have
to live. WIDOW.

DELAYS PETITION
FOR ANNEXATION
COUNCIL WILL HAVE PAPERS
AT NEXT MEETING
CoLEGRoVE'S LIST OF sIGNERS
NOT FULLY CHECKED
Election Probably VIII Be Called for
Second Week In October and
Harbor Citizens Will Cast
First Vote

The plans of City Clerk Lelande to
complete the checking of the annexa-
tfon petition of ColegroVe and Arling-
ton Heights by yesterday noon miscar-
ried and it will not be possible to fin
ish this checking until Tuesday morn
ing, as Monday is a holiday, but the
petition will be presented to the coun-
ell at it's session Tuesday, and unless
something unexpected happens the city
clerk will report it as sufficient. The
city clerk was so sure that the petition
will be sufficient that he reported this
fact to the city attorneys department
yesterday and Deputy City Attorney
Wilson Immediately began to prepare
the ordinance calling the election. This
ordinance will be ready to present to
the council Tuesday.
1t is expected the council will order
the election for the annexation be
called as soon as possible, but this
probably will be during the second
week in October. most likely October 8.
The ordinance must be published in
the official paper of Los Angeles and
also in one other paper in the county,
outside the city. A Hollywood paper
has been chosen for this purpose.
The district whose residents wish to
be annexed is known as the Colegrove-
Arlington district and contains about
ten square miles. 1t extends from the
northernmost city limits to south of
the Santa Monica branch of the South
ern Pacific and the western boundary
is about one mile west of the present
northeast corner of the city.
The election ordinance will provide
for consolidated precincts, to be the
same as the consolidation elections for
Wilmington and San Pedro, and the
voters of Wilmington and San Pedro
will have their first opportunity to
vote in Greater Los Angeles at this
election.
With precincts consolidated, there
are usually sixty-nine, but in addition
at this election there will be a precinct
in Wilmington, four in San Pedro and
six in the territory to be annexed,
making a total of eighty consolidated
precincts.

STILL INSISTS WOMEN ARE
FAILURES IN POLITICS

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 4.-[Editor
Herald: Answering several articles by
Louisa D. Harding, Marian Martin, ct
al, Louisa presents statistical record
of the vote cast for Governor Buchtel
in the redlight district. The insinua-
tion is so base that it was my inten-
tion to ignore it, Had she accused him
of being a sneak thief no one would
have believed her. yet she knows the
insinuation is entitled to the same cor
sideration If she will substitute the
Republican party for the name of the
governor then her statistics will con-
vey the correct meaning. While 1t is
true the governors name headed the
ticket he was not the whole ticket and
could hardly be held responsible for the
acts of the other candidates for office,
also others like Billie, who represented
the interests. The same power that di-
rected the vote in this campaign elected
Mayor Speer, a Democrat. 1t is ques-
tionable whether any respectable man

BELIEVES WOMAN IS
COMING INTO HER OWN

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 2.-[Editor
Herald: Woman is coming into her
own. Every decade the census reports
show that the number of women en-
gagged in gainful occupations is in
creasing. No longer will the bride
when asked why she married have as
an excuse that there was nothing else
she could do"
The age of machinery is the womans S
age. The entrance of woman into a
majority of the wage earning occupa-
tions also proves that, with the eXcep-
ton of those trades where mere brute
strength is the principal qualification,
given an equal opportunity, women are
capable of making their own these
various trades which heretofore have
been of profit to man alone. These mil
lions of self-supporting women are a
constant reproof to those women who
are now dependent on their fathers
waiting, if not patiently, at least as
patiently as they can for some man
to offer to support them the balance
of their helpless lives.
The age of the useless woman is fast
passing. The exigencies of the times
gave woman her opportunity, and
woman, developing as she always does
when placed in a responsible position.
accepted the challenge, and the victory
is hersl
Leaving a subject of greater for one

gent individual belongs to one or both
of these classes-cannot have too large

the statement that your correspondent
asserts had the support of such author
tiles as the Fathers Of the first three
centuries and If any on this earth
were genuine historians those men
were.
1 was under the impression that the
fathers in those days were the un-
compromising champions of Christian
ity, with all it's revered tenets, and that
their views on such questions as christs,
devils, holy ghosts, etc, were identical
with those of any we'll instructed Chris
tian of these latter days.
If such acknowledged fathers" and
powerful minds of the first three CEN
turies as Tertullian, Ireneous, Atha-
nasius and Eusebius of Caesarea taught
otherwise, 1 should like to know the
references. as it would go a long way
toward changing my views. Inquir-
