J like 10 sing best TO women" Miss
Lee claims, because they are intel
ligent. To succeed in the eyes of
women, you must be real. you cannot
please them by any suhterfuge, or by
merely looking the part. Men will
forgive you if you but look the part
and arc pretty--but women expect
much more Women can see what is
underneath. men can't" And possibly
this realization is what has given Miss
Lee her popularity with women, she
sincerely tries to be real" In fact,
the little singer counts herself rather
an authority ON women.
II like the pep and go of the
Yankee girls she will tell You, "and
II am glad our girls are beginning to
absorb enough of the Northern idea
ito make them want TO get up and do
things. l do not think you will find
a half hundred girls now in the South
who are willing to sit around and be
made love to and nothing else"
Bnt in spite OF her admiration for
the energy OF the Northern women,
Miss Lee holds UP the heroism of the
women OF the Confederacy as u won
derful example for the women of
Euroue to follow in the present day.
On the women of the warning coun-
tries is to fall the burden of rehabili-
tation. just as il fell on the women
OF the South. and Miss Lee does not
lose an opportunity OF bringing forth
a picture of the setting aside of So
tcial distinctions, and the huCkling
down to hard work done by the wo-
men of the Confederacy, as a lesson to
be learned by the women OF other
countries.
