Another great lumberlng industry

Not Like Grandmother's Time.

Industrial and commercial con-
ditions have changed" said Dr.
Shaw. "and with them woman's POI
sition has likewise changed The
average man today wants to ride in
an airship and his wife to ride in an
ox-cart, like grandmother did The
women couldn't do that If they want
ed to. The hand of progress moved
by mans desire for financial gain,
has taken from the home the spin
ming wheel, the loom, the preserv-
ing kettle and other ancient house
hold facilities and substituted la
bor-saying machinery. And now If
woman wants grandmother's job
she must go into the store. the fac
tory or the sweatshop
"In the olden days grandmother
could regulate the hours OF her la
Dor according to her personal wishes.
She was supreme In that. Her grand
daughter OF today can't do that. She
has nothing to say about man-made
laws that force her into the CONNER
mercial world, and that's why she de-
mands the ballot. Woman does not
want the ballot simply to vote; she
wants the ballot because It's the
only medium by which she can re-
cure social and economic justice. She
does not want the ballot simply for
the sake Of voting, but does want
what the ballot will bring her"
3 United States Not Yet a Republic.

States, which purported to be re
public. was not a republic at all
and would not be TIL all the people
were a party to it's government

REPLIES TO ATTACK
BY MISS HELEN GOULD
BY Associated Preaa.

Grand Junction, Col, July 26.-Un-
daunted by the comment of Miss Helen
Gould upon his recent sermon, in which
he asserted old maids should be isolated
on a barren island as waste product,
Rev. Elmer Y. Huffner, of the First
Christian church, today insisted that
old maids are a detriment and a men
ace to society and advised Miss Gould
to seek a mate incogn1to in the back
woods.
Miss Gould Is a noble woman" he
said, but her nobleness would be
greatly enhanced were she married.
don't attempt to dictate to Miss Gould
what she should or should not do.
Miss Gould has done more good for
humanity than any other bachelor girl
in this age and she can still do un-
limited good.
mo woman has done her duty to
the world until she has borne children.
Miss Gould is in a peculiar position be-
cause Of her riches. She cannot be
sure she is being wooed for love alone.
The only way to solve this problem is
for Miss Gould to accept a position in
the backwoods incognito. Here she
might find the right one, a righteous.
Industrious man who would love her
for her true self and not for wealth.
Her riches have handicapped her in
the real enjoyment of life and ! dare
say she is not as happy In her private
car with her maids as is my servant
girl.
IF Miss Gould wants two weeks Of
real enjoyment, two weeks of real
happiness, let her disguise herself as
a waitress and seek work in a cheap
retaurant, let her clerk in a store or
work as a mbermaid-anything so
long as she earns her own living and
lives on less than SO a week"
