distinction to be established with regard
to the scope of womens activity?
Mr.. Hefiin proclaims against the higher
education of women as dangerous to their
finer sensibilities. and as seductive to the
end of making them fanatics and politi-
clans Again the difficulty of differenti-
alton occurs Is dead line in education
to be drawn somewhere in the> range of
public education? Where is it to fall?
Nowadays girls are taught civic subjects
In the high schools and it would probably
be better for every community IL they
we're taught these principles earlier and
more thoroughly. To attain to the ideal
of woman's confinement to the home cir
Gle which Mr.. Hefin cherishes means
practically her exclusion from all but the
lower graded school, with the substitu-
ton of seminary instruction in the in
nocuous arts and gentle accomplishments
10 give her the semblance of an educa-
tional finish.
1t may be doubted whether Mr.. Helm
has authority for his assertion that the
vast majority of American women do not
want the vote, nor is there force in his
statement that the women who demand
suffrage are afraid TO submit the question
to the women themselves. Such referen-
dunn would be a waste OF time, lnconclu-
sive and of no value as determining the
real merits of the suffrage question. The
issue today is not whether the women
want to vote, but whether they are en-
titled to it; not whether they wish 1t, but
whether the country feeds their influence
as voters to bring about a better con-
dition in American politics. Inasmuch as
the decision must be rendered ultimately
BY those who now have the franchise, the
men Of the United States, the women
who are active in. this propaganda are
wise in their refusal to waste time and
confuse the issues by a reference OF the
question to moot court of the dis
franChiSed.

little bit of everything! Some sunshine
in the sky,
A drop or so of rain as surly clouds 60
drifting by,
wind with plaintive murmur or a breeze
so light and gay
1t takes little bit Of everything to make
a day.
An honest self-reminder Of some folly
half forgot;
A sympathetic feeling for the common
human lot;
A hope Of something that will serve a
sorrow to beguile-
It takes little bit Of everything to make
a smile.
A little memory-glimpse into the days of

Where shadows dim the toyousness that
once was all aglow,
A little bit of tenderness, little trace OF
fear
1t taxes a little bit of everything to make
tear.
