WOMEN soLDlERsI

Suffragettes rejoice!
1t has often been said that because
of woman's natural unfitness for mill
tary duty she should not have the right
to vote. Now this objection may be
obliterated.
The introduction Of obligatory mill
tary service for women was proposed
at meeting Of the Patriotic Women's
union by Privy Medical Councillor
Witzel, professor Of the medical Assem-
bly, at Dusseldorf, Germany.
The lecturer suggested that women
should be enrolled In the military hos
pital transport, provisioning and cloth
ing services and should be modified
with the other auxiliary troops in case
of war.
HIGH COST OF LIVING
Higher and higher has mounted the
cost Of almost everything, until prices
now have reached in some instances
the level Of rates prevalent during the
civil war. "Will they ever stop" is
the cry everywhere. What L. the rem
edy? Solutions are offered by the hun
dreds, but seemingly to no avail.
Because Of the price Of butter and
eggs the work of teaching economy in
the district schools Of Minneapolis was
begun in order that domestic science
pupils not only may learn for them
selves what substitutes may be used,
but that all Minneapolis people may
know of 1t through knowledge that the
pupils take home. Lila p. Erich. su-
pervisor Of domestic science, directed
that substitutes for butter be used
wherever possible In the cooking class

WOMEN CLAIM CONTROL
The women Of California control the

they back up the assertion with figures
obtained by quiet census of register
ed women voters.
The estimate of the male vote Is
based on the figures officially given out
at the close of the last state registra-
ton and is placed at $4,000. The wo-
man voters census gives $40, 140 regis
trations. Mrs. Oliver @. Bryant, chair
man Of the civic betterment committee
Of the league, says that the organiza-
