motherhood is the exclusive and God
given right of a woman makes this
law unnecessary?
And do we ever reply that father
hood is the exclusive and God-given
right of man, and therefore the same
law should apply to him? Oh, no, we
never do, because we are afraid.
It is my belief that every child
comes into the world with the same
clean, pure soul. And that soul is wax
upon which life makes its impress
sions.
Even with children born in we'd
lock, we differentiate according to
the social status of the parents, but
we are fiendishly cruel to the little
helpless baby that we have decreed
must be ostracized because its par
ents did not comply with our laws
and go through the ceremony OF mar
rage before the little one came into
our world.
The very name that we apply to
illegitimate children, a name l al
ways shrink from using, "bastards, y
shows what towards we are. We do
not brand a man a thief unless we
can prove that he stole; we dare not
brand a man a murderer unless we
can prove that he killed; we dare not
call a man liar unless we can show
conclusiveIy that he lied.
But we do place upon an innocent
child that is guilty of noCerime
name so filled with society's con-
tempt that we blush when we use it.
My critics may say that it is ne
cessary to punish women who bring
children into the world without
marriage else we would have no
morality at all. But I answer that
our punishment is as foolish as the
man who locks the stable door after
the horse is stolen. ii
Our punishment of immortality
has not decreased it. We can only

ing the men who sin with them into
our hearts and homes on the ground
that since they do not bring children
into the world, even though children
could not be brought here without
fatherhood,> their sin is to be con-
dOned.
But even my critics will not be
able to explain why we make the in
nOcent children suffer after we have
punished the unWedded mother and
forgiven the father.
It is terribly unfair. More, it is
cowardly, but we are-the towards
who are responsible for it, and the
condition will continue to exist until
we conquer our cOwardice and dare
to unite our voices in protest. -

"There is but one thing women
can do now and that is to choose
food stuffs carefully, cook them to
the best advantage and disseminate
their knowledge of right eating and
living among those who are not so
well informed" - Henrietta d.
Grauel.
A mother who is bringing up a fam
ily of nine children in these times ought
to know a good deal about how to man
age, and her experience should be Of
value to others, even to those with
much smaller families.
There is such a family in a Minnesota
city there are seven girls and two
boys, ranging in age from four to pa
The mother gives some facts about her
domestic arrangements which are very
interesting. They are summarized rs

written for the United fress.j
WASHINGTON, Nov 4.--What TO 90
Tor summer White House next year
is a problem which President Wilson
must soon face. His lease on Har-
lakenden House in the Cornish, N. H.
mines expires this year, and whether
he will see fit to renew It is a secret
which he alone shares His closest
friends believe he win select some
other place. Moreover. in various sec
tions of the country there are move
ments afoOt to erect or select a perma-
nent summer White House.
As far as President Wilson is con-
cerned the problem OF getting such a
place causes him little concern. But
next year, with only short session OF
Congress in sight he may have more
opportunity than heretofore for vaca-
tioning. This season he has been able
TO take only piecemeal vacation. On
these occasions he has elected to go Il
Harlakenden House where his fam
lily has soiourned for several months
And the trips have done him good
brief though they were. He liked the
seclusion of the beautiful home over
looking the Connecticut river and
commanding a striking view Of the
Green mountains beyond The pleasant
rides in the immediate vicinity, the
bracing air. the lack Of intrusion, the
ability to get good golf links at Han
over n. H.. only 10 miles away. have
combined to make the spot ideal in the
Presents mind.

of girls it is not strange that most OF

But now. it is possible that he Will
prefer a change of scene for his next
years vacationing.
If he does. he will have plenty Of
room for selection. The latest pro-
posal for a summer White House is
Monticello" Thomas Jefferson's old
home in Virginia. Representative
Levy's willingness to sell this place to
the government for half million dol
lars has suggested the idea that it
would make an excellent place for
presidents to sojourn in their off
moments. Perhaps the chief advan-
tage Of such a scheme would be the
accessibility of the place from WASH

was not there, it could be a mecca for
tourists-as II has been under private

most too ornate for a democratic presi-
dent with a small "d.")
While Denver's public spirited citi-
zens are seeing that the Mount Falcon
scheme gets plenty Of publicity, friends
Of President Wilson here consider the
idea fantastical. The chief argument
urged against this praiseworthy, but
apparently not well digested scheme,
is that it is too far from the base OF
operations. Four days would be con-
sumed in travelling each way. Now,
for instance, If the president We're TO
have a hurry call TO return to Wash
inpton, as he did this summer at Cor
nish when the war tax hight was on
he might be mduly delayed by the
journey from Colorado.
Hence, this plan now appears to be
doomed in advance
Thus far the seashore resorts have
made bid for attention, but in the
minds of many here the president has
preference for the mountains for a
vacation spot, although as Jerseyitc
he cannot fail to appreciate the joys
of life by the shore play grounds.
At any rate while solicitous people
throughout the country are trying TO
pick President Wilson's vacation place
for him for next summer, he is merely
considering il incidentally. Later he
will give il more serious thought, II
he finds that the coming summer Of
