Are Women People?
By ALICE DUER MILLER
A Son to His Anti-Sufrage Mother.

a Son to His Anti Suffrage Mother.
Mother, dear mother how could you deceive me!
Where shall find consolation and balm!
willie" you always have taught me, believe me,
Women who vote never have any charm
Out Of the West came beautiful stranger;
Fast beat my heart, but felt no alarm;
Why should fear an impossible danger?
Stella had voted-she couldn't have charm.
Much of my time at her side expended,
Trying TO teach her woman's true place
Sometimes she yawned, twice or thrice was ofo-
Once, assure you, she laughed in my face.
Stella has plighted her word to another;
Told me the news with the cruellest calm,
Added: "There, Willie, run home to your mother;
Tell her that Cave Men are losing their charm"

But she chose to keep her little fam
lily together.
Her spirit survived long hours OF
day labor" in strange households. She
served as a waitress in a restaurant.
She tramped from house to house,
seeking to sell what nobody wanted
to buy. She performed menial tasks
for the coarse-minded who took de-
light in treating her as a servant.
And yet this gentlewoman reared
three splendid God.loving citizens, be-
cause no matter what her wOrkday
tasks had been. evening saw her al
ways the smiling mother and compan-
ion of her little ones, putting memories
in their hearts that would endure
through their lives.
This woman was made of the stuff
that heroes are made Of. There are
many. many more like her. But We
do not bestow hero medals on such.
They are doing no conspicuous deeds
of bravery. They are only doing their
duty. we say, while we huzza the man

Why is there more glory in killing
than In preserving life; in destruction
than construction?

UNSUNG HEROES

Many There Are In Quiet Places In the
World More Worthy Of Medals

Won "Glory."

We're very busy these days talking
about heroes, lauding those who have
given their lives for their country.
writes Edna X. Wooley in the Kansas
City Star. All sorts of medals are
being distributed to men who are un-
doubtedly brave in the face OF fearful
dangers. Governments make great play
upon the honor and glory achieved by
their men who go forth to kill other
men or be killed. To die in the service
OF ones country-ah! There can be
no greater privilege. no finer quality
OF heroism! Strike off more medals
Pin on more fancy ribbons! Erect
more monumentsi Continue to make
men and women believe thst there is
more heroism in a spectacular death
while fighting the enemy-that enemy
which is composed OF brothers and
sisters-than in living that others may
