AGIN POCKETS FOR WOMEN

l. Because pockets are not d. natur- al right.
 women don't want pockets. If they did they would have them.
 3. Because whenever women have had pockets they have not used them
 A. Because women are required to carry enough things as it is, without the additional burden Of pockets.
 5. Because it would make dissension between husband and wife as to whose pockets were to be filled
 6. Because it would destroy man's $ chivalry toward woman, if he did not have to carry all her things in his pockets
 2. Because men are men. and women are women. We must not fly in the face of nature.
 8. Because pockets have been used to carry tobacco. pipes, whisky fIasks, chewing gum and compromising let ters. We see mo reason to suppose that women would use them more wise1y.-F,ron "Are Women People,

 Lullaby, sweet!
 The star are a-1ight; They're hung in the heavens
 To bid you good night. See, where the clouds, lingering
 Under the moon, Are moving to soothe you, The while that I croon, Hush, my own sweet! Lullaby sweeti
 The humming bird darts From it's home in the bush
 To the clematts hearts, Swift moths are a-f1utter
 On dim pulsing wings; And out on the maple
 A katydid sings, A, SIumber. my sweet! : Lullaby sweetI
 The night wing hear, Upmurmuring melodies
 Deep in your ear, Great shadows close softly Above the still stream, Oh, hush thee, my darling
 Then smile in thy dream, Lullaby sweet!
