The Coming Struggle

Not every friend of the Anti-Saloon League in
Illinois is of the fact that the campaign Tor the
election of members to the next general assembly is
already on. Active work is being conducted IN
some of the districts with reference to the primary
election to be held September 9, 1914 That date
should be indelibly stamped on the memory OF every
Anti Saloon League friend in the state.

the cumulative voting SYSTEM which gives the priv

Character of the Contest.
No unusual emphasis needs to be given to make
friends realize that the next primary contest will
be the most difficult and the important that has
ever been held The lines are distinctly drawn
between the saloon and temperance forces than
before One Of these two elements will control the
next assembly, One thousand more votes rightly dis

election would have given the better element COM
pete control of the last general assembly, and would
have passed every temperance measure that pre-
sented We can have this the next time II we are
willing to put into the fight what it is worth. Less
than that number of votes given to the liquor people
would have permitted them to pass the most per-
ncious bill that has been introduced III the legis
lature the perpetual license bill. This shows how
terrific the coming will be- and how important
as we'll Truly it must be fight to the finish. The

closely divided this time than before. The slogan
for the assembly should be "Altogether and

- OUR women were seated about a

their attention centered upon
cups of tea and hot toasted English

that two of the younger members of
the quartet were successful actresses,
while the third was an equally success

After the quartet had finished their

older Of the actresses. who were sisters,
by the way. Already, she explained,
they had read five plays that season,
with the idea Of appearing as co-stars in
their own company, but each play they
had read had been more of a disappoint-
ment than the one that had preceded It.
But they were willing to read any
thing offered them, and when a few
days later Mrs. Rachel Carothers
brought to the two Taliaferro sisters,
Mabel and Edith, the skeleton of
young Wisdom" they discovered at
once that Miss Carothers had hit upon
the exact idea they were looking for.
This Is the story of the birth Of the
delightful little comedy in which Klaw

Brooks, he became enthusiastic over its

Julia Murdock Reveals Story of
"Young Wisdom" Latest of Plays

something that has not been known
since the the starring tour of the Bate
man sisters In the early seventies.
Young Wisdom" is typically a
Rachel Carothers style play, because
it gets at things which are agitating a
lot of people just now. and gets at them
in a way one cannot resent, no matter
what ones own private view may be
on the subject. To begin with. Young
Wisdom deals with affairs Of the
heart, and this in itself is a safe foun-
Rachel Carothers individualism comes
in-the play goes further, and reveals
what people may expect of their chill
dren and their children's children II
the tendencies of modern times do not
meet up with a cropper.
Miss Carothers is q firm believer in
the complete emancipation of women,
though she has said herself. and re-
peats in her play, that ''the ballot is
one little piffling detail in the general
scheme Of revolutionized womanhood."
That We are moving slowly but GER
tainly toward a loftier plane, which can
not have any other effect than to make
all men and women into broader. bigger.
better men and women, is Miss Caroth-
erS belief, and she also believes that
this is due to the fact that women arc
getting out into the. field Of work.
Women are carving out a new and
vastly elevated place for themselves .
Miss Carothers said, in a recent inter-
view.
I'VE have only to look about US at
the rising generation of young women
to note the difference between today
and fifty-even twenty-five-years ago.
A girl is DO longer satisfied to sit at
home and receive the attentions of
some likely young man who is apt to
make a good husband. She wants to
DO things. II 1t isn't actual work she
takes up, it's athletics or travel or some
other diversion which exerts a broad
entng influence.
"a career means more to the average
girl of today than the prosaic idea Of
marrying and settling down to the rou-
tine of household duties with which
our mothers and our grandmothers
struggled.
