SAWS PROF. WARD SHOWS THE
AGE-lONG FAlSlTY.
authority OF Prof. Lester r

NNe sS'NS SNSSs
prof. Ward" she says. has shown
the falsity OF the age long concept OF
the human mind that man IL the race
type and woman merely his female.
He has shown that woman was the
original human organism and the
male but later addition. And since
the time when male and female
human types became separate co-equal
entities. the male has developed very
little while the female has developed
with rich and varied diversity Of
functions:
Tho order nammalia 10 the
highest form Of human life and
We, the female. are the order
mammalia and the female only"
But we needn't be too "set up" over
it. for Mrs. Gilman admits that II
wasn't long before change came in
tho basic relationship between the
sexes. 1t occurred. she explains,
when the power of motherhood be-
came a profitable thing to the male
He was taken In as n sort OF extra
child, and he has continued TO profit
by that service OF motherhood ever
since. Nowhere else in animal ex-
istence do we find such dependence
OF the male on the females service.
And woman, In turn, has become de-
pendent on man for everything else.
I'm all other races but the human
the female chooses her own mate.
Among humans the male is supposed
to do the selecting. When women
become economically Independent of
man, perhaps we may follow this ex-
ample with advantage to tho human
race"
SHE ASSERTS WE HAVE De.
GRADED HUMAN LOVE.
And then. for once, Mrs. Gilman's
vision OF the facts of life seems to me
