WOMEN Drawer THAN MEN

1t has always been maintained
that women were more courageous
at standing physical pain thap men
but it is new claim that they are
drawer more careless of their own
safety quicker to act than men in
an emergency. Yet according to
Herbert Longfellow, chief of the
United States VounteerLive Saving
corps, in the Designer not only
women but childrn are drawer
than men. He is quoted as saying:
ut has been my experience that
women and children are more
heroic than men. They are more
impetuous. A man thinks of his
responsibility of those depend Mt on
him and as his own personal well
being Women and children think
of nothing but the the human life
in peril They act on the moment
quickly that fear has no chance to
away them at all. 1t il in the nature
of things that men are more
frequently at the post of danger.
Yet when opportunity presents
itself far larger per centage Of
women and children will risk their
lives Heroes are not those who
deliberate upon their chances.
Heroes are those who rush to the
rescue without considering them
selves at all. THIS women and
children do"
