House, and into the very chamber of the
House of Commons, and made a speech be-
fore she could be arrested.
The trial Of the suffragettes attracted the
attention Of the entire nation. Two mem

WOMEN DO LESS THAN MEN
Eastern Railroad Awards the Eff

Men.

The announced policy of the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad to replace the women now
in It's employ IN clerical capacities with
men, gradually. as changes are made. is
said to be based ~ a showing that young
men,, even as s~tenographers. are 80 per
cent more efficient than young women.
Perhaps that is about the view OF most
employers who nave tried both. IL furn-
ishes a topic for discussion by progressive
women less exciting, to be sure, than the
suffrage question, but Of more Immediate
practical Importance.
Why Is a girl OF IS less useful as a
stenoErspher than a boy Of is? The max
Ing Of pothooks and the transcribing Of
notes require no physical strength that he
has and she has not. In knowledge Of
spelling and English gramma the expert
ence OF mixed schools indicates that the
average girl is rather ahead OF the average
boy. In finger dexterity she can at least
hold her own.
Maybe ultimate ambition Is one reason.
Her ultimate ambition. normal, proper,
wholesome. is to be a happy wife. His
ultimate ambition is to be a prosperous
BUSINESS man. Clearly he will be quicker
to grasp the meaning OF terms used in
business correspondence. Then. In general
acquaintance with what is going on in the
world, as the newspaper tells 1t every day,
the boy is ahead. He is not more amenable
to discipline than the girl, but It requires
less wear and tear to discipline him. He
can be asked to wrap up a package with
out fear that he will shed tears over the
reflection on his dignity as a stenographer.
That counts for something.
Let the women's clubs study The disad-
vantage under which girls labor, and find
out the remedy, II they can. That win be

1t is a seaside village, fifteen miles
from Los Angeles, and its founders
conceived an innovation which has
proved popular. Vehicular traffic is
confined to the alleys. There really
are no streets, such as are known in
other cities.
In the place of the street Venice
has the centre walk. All the short
streets leading from the ocean front
are constructed on this plan. They
are merely broad, concrete walkways.
AS no wagons are allowed on them
there is no occasion for sidewalks.
children may play on these centre
walks at will, and as long as they
please, without the fear of being in
Jured by passing vehicles or horses.
Twenty-foot alleys abut on the rear
of all lots fronting on the centre
walks. Delivery wagons, carriages,
automobiles, horseback riders and
what not must needs use the alleys.
The streets, or centre walks, are for
the use of pedestrians only.-.Louis-
