VOTES FOR WOMEN


In a late number of the Woman's
Journal. under the title, 1.-THE Promises
of 1916" appeared the following declar-
atoms made by the national political
parties in their platforms this year:
The Democratic party says: 1--WE
recommend the extension of the fran
chise to the women of this country,
state by state, on the same terms as
to men"
The Republican party says: 1.-The
Republican party, reafirming it's faith
in government of the people, by the
people, for the people, as a measure
of justice to one-half the adult people
of this country, favors the extension
of the suffrage to women, but recog-
nizes the right of each state to settle
this question for itself"
The Progressive party says: And
we believe that the women of the
country, who share with the men the
burdens of government in times of
peace and make equal sacrifice in
times Of war, should be given the full
political rights of suffrage, both by
state and federal action"
The Socialist party says: eve ad-
vocate and pledge ourselves and our
elected officers to Unrestricted and
equal suffrage for men and women
The immediate adoption of the So
called Susan B. Anthony amendment
to the Constitution of. the United
States granting the suffrage to women
on equal terms with mem"
The latter two parties have been
committed to the principle of equal
suffrage from the beginning of their
existence, but the two great national
parties have only this year adopted it.
Whatever the motive which prompted
the action, it is the first time that the
woman's movement has been recogniz-
ed by all parties as a real issue and
must make a difference in the attitude
of voters toward it. Committee.

WHAT ARE WE MADE FOR?
BY May Dc wits TaIGnage

WHAT ARE WE MADE FOR?
One of the first questions we ask
when we see a new or strange piece
Of machinery is: What is it for ?"
1t is meant for some specific thing,
but what? We all, with our differ
ent temperament, education, envir-
onment and heredity are made for
some individual kind of work, and
our happiness and success in life
all depends on our finding out,
What we are for"
In a watch the spring cannot ex-
change places with the wheels. nor
the cogs with the pivots Different
men belong in different places.
Some men get into occupation below
that for which they are intended.
They do not get along as we'll in
that position as somebody with less
brains. Again a man sometimes gets
into a position a little above that for
which he is intended. That man
is ia a horrible condition who is ever
making prodigious effort TO do more
than he is able to do.
The great secret for success in
life is to find ones right place in
the scheme of things; to ask our
selves what are we for. find out and
then begin right, for not once in a
thousand times does a man success
fully change occupations. 1t is al
ways dangerous TO change boats in

ence between what we would like to
be and what our temperament and
nature intend us to be.

touch is wonderful and her notes
limpid and full Of expression. but
she insists on playing rag time. and
it's very poor rag time at that. 1t

dancing or even trotting their feet
while another girl can set a whole

There is a long distance from the

that we ask ourselves, what are we
