For Right to Marry
Women Teachers Fight

New York, Jan 20.-An appeal
against what she terms interference
with her rights as an American citizen
to marriage and motherhood is be-
ing made to the woman's clubs of this
city by Mrs. Jeanette V. OrtmaA-
Gamse against the action of the board
of education in dismissing her from
her position as public school teacher
on the ground of gross misconduct -
Several prominent club women have
enlisted in the cause, and it is intend
ed to demand a formal hearing, at
which all possible pressure will be
brought to bear against the rules
against marriage and motherhood
among the women teachers. If the
board fails to rescind its action, Mrs.
Gamse has retained counsel and will
test the rule in the courts.

the logical course to take"
The majority of Senator Smiths
remarks were in line of a detailed and
clear explanation of the fundamental
principles and workings of the new
currency law. He predicted that It
would make the currency of the coun-
try more elastic, and would greatly
facilitate the removal of money from a
section where it was not needed to q
section where it was needed.
He pointed out, too, that the ne
currency law is intended to overcome
defects in the old system
and benefit not alone banks, but the
entire public.
Senator Smith expressed faith that
no section would benefit more richly
from the change than the South. 4
have the utmost confidence in the flu
ture of our section" he declared, "for
we have greater natural advantag 3
than any other section of the Union,
and that means our advantages are
the greatest in the world.
while We are inviting the good men
from other parts of the country TO
come and settle with us, if necessary
our own people have the enterprise
and ability to work out the section s
iestiny."

Atltnta, Jan. 20.-A new era Of
economic freedom for the people o.
America is predicted by Senator Hoke
Smith as the result of the working out
of the new banking and currency bill.
In his speech before the Georgia Bank
ers, assembled in Atlanta as the lunch
con guests of the Atlanta Clearing
House association, at the Capital City
club, the senator not only commended
all features of the new law, but was
equally emphatic in his expression of
belief that Atlanta should and would
be the headquarters for the regional
bank in the southeast
cat one time l feared a move might
be made to put Georgia in a reserve
district with New Orleans" he said,
but manifestly that would have
worked an injury to our state. Accord
ingly I insisted on amending the
measure so that instead of fixed
number of eight banks it provides now
for eight to twelve banks. This south
eastern section is logically entitled to
a reserve district. l have sought to
impress that view on the members of
the organization committee, and
have been glad to see that banking ex-
perts in the north agree that such is

best Judges Of their own credit scr

A great deal Of talk has been made
over tho purchase OF AUTOMOBILES py
those who cant AFFORD them" Such
purchases seem common but the secm :
ing Is larger than the fact Nobody
worries over an ordinary man who
owns good horse worth somewhere
between 5000 and $500, q buggy which
was worth new perhaps 500 to 5000,
harness at $40 but these items added
run higher than the cost of very
popular machine Of two or Ave pas
senger capacity. 1t costs $15 a month
to keep horse at home including
shoeing, etc. 1t costs the same sum to
keep him at the livery barn exclusive
of shoeing, etc. Some say they can
keep them for less, some say their
moderate priced autos cost them $40
month to run but it Is likely that the
cost of each approximates the other
dependent upon the man who owns it..
All this enters into the estimate Of the
man who can afford"
This is no plea for the auto or for
careless or foolish expenditure On the
contrary. But simple Justice forces the
conclusion that The allegation of ut
terly unjustified buying of machines by
persons who refuse on that account to
pay honest debts is over done and over
drawn. Also, let us get down to brass

no regularity about the process, nor
any official supervision. In the vari-

Just another case OF locking the door

tory was not to blame because there
was no state regulation OF the fumiga-

Probably the myriad Of laws gov

something which assumes to cover this
point. But at any rate 1t does not
stipulate official supervision by men
who know the business OF fumisating

AUTOS AND THE GROCERY BILLS.

One voter in FIVE owns an auto
Marshalltown Times Republican.
How many of the one-ffth have their
autos fully paid for and how many are
permitting the grocer and printer to
whistle for his?-Ackley World.
The place to answer that question is
at home. It is probably true that nine
autos out or ten. perhaps ninety five
been paid for when purchased. That
is probably true OF the automobiles
that ply the country roads and the
streets of Marshalltown. 1t is possible
that some Of the owners borrowed the
money to buy theirs and that they owe
some or all that they borrowed. But
generally speaking the auto owner in
Iowa is able to have it. ii is likely
that more money is owed the imple-
ment man than the garage.
At any rate aren't we taking q
great deal Of trouble over automobiles
and the possibility that some one owes
for his? Generally a man can't owe
much unless he has credit and the fac'
that he has credit suggests that he
knows enough to take care Of himself
fairly well and has managed to pay or
past Indebtedness. He should worry
over the cost and the payment for hi,

him or the dealer who gave him credit
