In an effort to answer that vexed
question by the irrefutable evidence OF
facts, George James Bayies, l.. l.. b.,
Ph. d., profossor OF Political Science
At Columbia University, has compiled
an exceedingly Interesting little volume
called Nv oman AMI New York Law"
The book Ia hrough, out by The Law
Press and by the special authority OF
the General Federation of women's
clubs. Tho New York city Federation
has recently passed a resolution urging
Its members to own and study Dr.
Bayles's book.
American women are leading the
women OF the world In their intelligent
Interest In their own condition. the
author starts OF. But the proper
basls for an intelligent interest In any
subject Is some definite knowledge Of

There Is nothing unwomanly in hav-
ire some debate knowledge Of the law:
IL II only common sense on the part of
the women OF affairs at the present
time. This is no attempt to make every
woman her own lawyer but II is an
attempt to have women understand
what their lawyers say to them and
something about the legal system under
which they live"
Then follow tho four sections into
which the book Is divided. The first
reouon sums up the laws which bear
upon the domestic relations OF women.
In the second section the property re-
1auons or women are treated; in the
third, the public relations OF women.
and the fourth deals with the protection
and correction OF women. Many laws

State carefully guards marriage as the
normal means OF producing family life,
which. In the eyes of the law, IS the
, Fundamental institution OF civilized So

directed to keeping marriage on a high
moral plano. n this chiefly for the
eject upon the younger generation.
Marriages are to be encouraged as we'll
as regulated, and anything that Is done
IN restraint OF marriage Is regarded as
against public policy. It was once de-
clared In tho British House Of Lords
that to try 10 prevent marriage was the
blacklist of all political sins"

overlooked. 1t ought not to be.
1t shows that Woodrow Wilson is
a typical American. He knows
the life of the average American
because he has lived it.
81 know the pinch of the high
cost of living" he said in one of
his campaign speeches, because
in my family we have to practice
the little economies of every day
existence in order to make both
ends meet"
And so, while democrats have
been jollifying and shrieking
their heads off from one end of
the country to the other over the
great victory, the chief figure in
it all has been counting his pen
MES to figure out how he and his
family are 6 ing to meet the in
creased personal expenses that
have been laid upon him.
You have probably heard that
Wilson is to stay on as governor
VI 4NOW oOiSey uhlli MdICu 4, ana
that it Is because he wants to
complete the reforms started I'M
der him. That is one reason,
but there is another-he cannot
afford to resign.
President-elect Wilson does
not even own his little home in
Princeton. He lives in a rented
house. Except for a few thou
sand dollars he saved as presi-
dent of Princeton, he has no
wealth or property. And he lives
not in one of the magnificent
houses with spacious grounds of
which there are so many in the
university town, but In "a bun
galow, on an unpaved road in the
edge of the village-Clevelan
lane, which has a sidewalk only
on one side, which reveals 81,
inches of mud when it rains and
which is very badly lighted al
