When Women Rule
In Merry England


IF 1 should go back to the British
Isle in so years. I'm convinced that
should find them being governed by wo-
men," declared Mrs. Gertrude Atherton,
the novelist. returning on the Amerika,
after several months abroad.
'Of course the women will have to
fight to attain such sovereignty" she
added. But I've met all the chief mil
liant suffragists in England and they
are capable persons. Men have had to
fight for all they have. Why shouldn't
women expect the same difficulties?
Although many a woman may be a
fool, many man is not much better.
Until today, when families are much
reduced in size, women have backed
4lsure and time to study and instruct
themselves AS they gain more time
for mprovement-fewer hours in shop
and factory, more labor-saving devices
for the home-they will progress ac-
cordingly in capacity and power"
Some one ventured to ask Mrs. Ather-
ton if ceIsain graces of life, poetry for
instance, were not vanished in the dust
kicked up by material progress.
POETRY exclaimed Mrs. Atrers IN.
This is not the age of poetryl People
are engrossed with immensely more i'm
portant matters. In the British Isles,
for example, there are such pressing
problems as abolition of the house of
lords, freed Ireland, Socialism, as well
as votes for women"
