In Society
WITH NO APOLOGIES TO KIPLING
(By Helen Rowland)

/
| went into a church last night as
| meek as meek could be;
And 10, the preacher rose and aimed
his sermon right at me!
And while he rallied at womankind
| smiled behind my fan,
For, said |, 1--WE may be dreadful,
but we're good enough for men. "
Oh, it's woman this and woman that
and woman is to blame.'
Remember, back in Eden, Shifty
Adam said the same!
It's woman's clothes, and woman's
ways, her hats, her heels. her
walk!
It's woman, woman, woman-and
I'm tired of the talk.
It's "the woman with the serpent
tongue" when poets WELD thetiail.
Or. ''the female of the species" far
more deadly than the male!
hts 1.-THE hobble-skirted horror, "
Turing men to sin and debt.
It's the vain and willy vampire" or
1.-The strong-armed suffragette'
Pshaw! it's woman this and woman
that. Inc woman tempted me.
But it's ooh, forgive me, angel!
when they're waking from spree.
It's the mannish modern woman, or
the silly, frilly one;
But it's God bless home and moth
err when they want their cooking
done.
It's the "sneaking, peeking woman, :
never known to work or think;
It's the nagging, Raging woman,
driving, patient man to drink;
ITS the rambling, gambling woman.
spending all her husbands cash;
It's the ghoulish, clubbish woman,
letting hubby live on hash.
Oh, it's woman this and woman
that, and Lord, didn't do it!
Behold, the woman lured me on. or
else, "she drove me to it!'
ITS woman here and woman there,
mans burden all through life!
But when they get toe-ache, it's
20, where's my little wife?'
Now we aren't all plaster angels and
it's lucky that we're not,
AS long as we must live with men
Ia rather earthly lot!)
We may have our faults and foibles,
but if all your taunts were true,
Well, don't you think we still should
be quite good enough for YOU?
Oh, it's woman this and woman that,
and Lets reform her quick"
But it's "ministering angel when
they're down and out and sick.
It's woman here and woman there,
and "We're the sirens snare."
But if man gets into heaven, twill
be woman got him there!

just passed, we are reminded that
amongst the things for which the
American people should be especial
" thankful and should indicate it by
so expressing themselves whenever
opportunity arises, is their good for
tune in having level-headed, clean
peace loving, conservative man at
the helm of State, at this time, when
a mistake in our dealings with for
eign powers might involve US in the
great war being waged on the other
side of the Atlantic, which is dis
grace to civilization.
The American people should keep
Mr.. Wilson in Office as long as he is
willing to stay there, or at least un-
til conditions adjust themselves to
the new policies which have been in
augurated, that the people may fully
enjoy and appreciate the benefits Of
genuine Democratic administration
of the affairs of the government.
