FACTORY FOREMEN
AT FJRESTONE HOME
Motor $50 Miles for FrOlic With
II. S. Firestone, Head of
of Company

Bright and early on the morning OF
July IL, a procession of 40 automo
biles curved its way through The
streets of Akron, O., out into the
Open Road" headed for the Old. Fire
stone Homestead, so miles away.
The party was composed exclusively
OF superintendents and foremen OF
the Firestone Tire and Rim factories
and officials OF the company, number

Family affair, with Mr. II. S. Firestone
as host
At 6 30 in the morning, as the whis
ties OF the Firestone factories blew
they sounded different message
from other days to the expectant
crowds lined up in front Instead OF
turning to their work, the men re
sponded with deafening blare OF
horns from their machines, stepped
on the tails" Of their snorting steeds
and were. OF for holiday that any
pioneer would enjoy.
Soon Akron was left behind and the
long ribbon OF decorated cars switch
ed over the beautiful hills and through
the fresh valleys OF Summit county
then Portage Trumbull and Mahon
ing counties.
The day was ideal and with ample
time at their disposal. the drive was
as easy and pleasurable as each chose
TO make IT, But who could loaf much
on the way when each had a "suspi
cion" OF the kind OF welcome, the
kind OF dinner and the many kinds oI
sport that awaited them at the Jour
lney's end.
However. the procession was held

by this time it was nearly noon anC
so there was precious little loafnl

ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY N. D. COCHRAN.

OuIII dSS dllO nc )L FHOiISli' ASeAN
an editorial somewhere based on the
denial by a leader of the suffrage
movement that in it's view "a married
woman who allows husband to sup
port her is little better than a kept
woman"
Any woman who lives with her
husband, runs the house and raises
family does more to support her hus-
band than he does to support her.
She is no more a kept woman than he
is kept man.
In many cases the mother is the
real head of the house, and the hus-
band is one of the children-the big
one that is sent out to grab grub for
the family while she is raising it.
No husband can live long enough
to do enough to repay the good wife
and mother for what she does for
him, for the family and for humanity.
No woman but a wife would put
in the long hours of toll, worry and
sacrifice that a mother puts in at the
job of managing the home and rear
ing and training the children,
The kept woman seldom has
babies. Hers is a selfish life. She
gives up her soul and body for the
creature comforts Of life-clothes,
place to live, food and good time"
until age creeps on and her phys
ical charms have ceased to attract.
The love of husband and wife is
more or less selfish in its early stages,
but when children come and both
learn the art of living for others, and
finding happiness in the development
of good men and women from the
little babies that come, then differ
ent love comes to both.
Husbands and wives often become
friends, pals, comrades; and in the
sunset of life the pair of aged lovers
can sit and hold hands as they wait
for their sun to go down.
l am not thinking now of the poor
fool of a women who marriGS for

It interferes

doesn't want babies. It interferes
with her social business.
She may be a kept woman. | am
thinking of the woman who maTrieS
for love in the real sense, and makes
all the sacrifices to do her share to-
ward multiplying and replenishing
the earth.
If the suffrage movement were
merely matter of votes for women
it wouldn't be worth bothering about.
But it is something bigger, broader
and better than that AS l see it, it
is a worldwide war of women for lib
erty.
1t takes many forms in varying
places. 1t may be votes for women
in England and America. 1t may be
freedom from slavery by the women
of the Orient. 1t may be industrial
freedom, war for living wage, or
equality with men in all things before
the law. 1t may be deep desire of
women to own their own bodies and
to be custodians of their own souls.
1t may be that women are deter
mined that if they must be kept they
will keep themselves, so that they
may own themselves.
The general uprising of women all
over the world fits in fine with the
general uprise of humanity; and I'm
for it. want women to be free. 1t
makes no difference to me how they
vote.
And l am mighty glad to see
women getting tired of being classed
among mans possessions, along with
