far as l can Judge from such dis
lance and from private letters and
public comment, 1t would seem the
women of Norway are fulfilling every
civic obligation without conflict with
their domestic duties. That seems
the supreme test, and if this should
prove to be the case in other parts Of
the world, see no reason for not
granting the right to vote to all wom-
en- who wish it. I am entirely of the
domestic type and never felt the least
desire to take part In public affairs.
Then diplomats wife has so many
grave and imposing obligations that
they make for her mission in life
without considering those she owes if
she assumes the responsibility of be-
ing a wife and mother. I can quite
agree. however. with some Of my
American friends that women can CO.
operate successfully with men in many
phases of public life and perhaps bet
ter conditions. am sure have, dur
ing my many experiences of home
keeping in different lands, wished it
would become more prevalent for
women to build homes which women
could live happily in. I was laugh
ingly told that in Washington the
manly architects plan homes in order
to make martyrs and saints of the
women. Surely there is room for the
fair sex in this line, building laws and
inspection Of homes, with a view to
promoting domesticity instead Of send
ing families pell-mell to hotels be-
cause of the difficulties of keeping
house as the American phrase goes.
I never could understand the hostile
feeling of men towards women if they
wish to vote. Our country offered
suffrage to women and really made
their political duties very attractive"
