RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS.

H. C. G.-The words from Ar
ticle II, amendments TO the Con-
stitution of the United States, "a
well-reguIated militia being nee
essary to the security of a free
people, the right of the people
to keep and bear arms shall not
be infringed," evidently have a
community meaning: but they
also carry along with them the
right of the individual to safe
guard himself and his house by
keeping himself armed with the
necessary means of defense. The
laws against carrying concealed
wea pons, now on the statute
books OF most of the States, is
a matter quite foreign to the
broad principles OF the right of
keeping and bearing arms.

All the Graces, all the good and

smiling Fates seemed to camp
about him, and, when he moved,
to follow him with their ever
renewed and never failing bene-

And in a way this seemed to
be all right, for Churchill, in an
important sense, earned his illus
triouS honors. He was selected
by his Government to beat down
the oppressive rule of Louis
Fourteenth, and he performed his
task to perfection: and in crush
ing the power OF that high
headed old despot, he did England
and the whole world the service
that can never be fully appre-
ciated.
AS general Marlborough is
almost without a peer He never
lost battle, never besieged

undertook anything in q military
way without accomplishing it.

The tragedy of marriage often
turns on the fact that while the
man and woman start in on an
equality, the woman gets incar-
cerated in a kitchen, is deluged
in housekeeping details. and
swamped by society, while the
man goes ahead and intellectual

So at 40 or so this man and
woman are strangers to each
other.
Marilla Kicker attorney AT law,
says that the smallness of fami-

the bad habits of the men.
And for these small families

Bv EBERT HUBBARD

n TABLE of interesting sta
tistics has been put out un-
officially, from Philadelphia
with intent TO show that the high
er education of women tends to
race suicide. The original basis
of these figures was a thesis
worked out at length by a .Bryn
Mawr graduate.
We have been told that gossips
lie like epitaphs; and certain it
is that figures prevaricate. If
you don't believe it, ask your
tailor. Mark Twain says you can
prove anything by statistics, pro-
vided you select the right ones.
Let an individual start out with
intent to prove a point, and he
can find figures that will back
him up in it.
Logic is an instrument for en-
trenching a prejudice. At least,
that is what Miss Gildersleeve,
dean of Barnard, AYERS on being
interviewed.
Says Miss Gildersleeve: AN
these figures prove is that young
women graduated in 1912 haven't
as many babies as the women who
were graduated in 1900"
Miss Gildersleeve is of the op!n-
ion that the higher education
postpones motherhood. That is,
instead of the girl marrying at
10, she marries at 25, And this,
Miss Gildersleeve thinks, is a
move in the right direction.

that it is her opinion, after study

that a woman who has had the

ton will probably not produce as
many children, but her children
will be of a better quality, and
more likely to live to attain and
to become.
For instance, a woman marry

three children, as against six or
seven, as our grandmammas did.
