their superiors that they be permitted

WOMEN AND WAR.

1T is significant that in all of
these countries which have de-
clared war women have not yet
been enfranchised. To be sure, il
they had the vote, they could not
stop war all at once, but they
would in time. In many nations.
as in England, when there are
million more women than men,
the chief argument against Votes
for Women, is that they would
tend to weaken military prowess!
Women have lone since passed
that stage where they considered
it a glorious thing TO bring sons
into the world that they might
grow up TO sacrifice their life for
their country in warfare. However
you put ii, war weighs more
heavily on the women. Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait.

Nearly every vegetable grown may
be employed in the preparation of
soups. either as the foundation for the
soup or as a garnish TO any kind of
meat stock. \ few types of vegetable
soups are here given Meat, meat
broth, or beef extract may be added to
any of them if additional flavor is
desired. but as they stand they are
very satisfactory soups.

There are many ways of preparing
