"Eriend Wife"

The slang straw shows how the
thought wind blows. This term
Friend Wife is now in good and reg
u,ar standing with such observers as
the cartoonist Briggs. columnists like
F. p. a. and B. L. T. and story writers
such as George Randolph Chester. 1t is
very doubtful if the phrase would hav>
caught on a generation ago. To our
ears IT sums up an aspect of the
change that that come about in the
da,iv status nf women. II recognizes in
a half humorous way the practical
working equality Of the sexes that is
great fact in modern life. In the
light OF this careless phrase We see
clearly how empty is the chatter of the
anti suffragists and the driyel of the
so-called feminists. Most people are
still very much like human beings
