OBSERVATIONS. - Contributor
Kendrick recently invited me to lob
serve" upon the correspondence that
appeared in The Forum concerning
women.
I read each letter carefully and
the results of my cogitations there
upon follow:
Arguing that woman should be
subject to man reveals an anti-so-
ciaI spirit.
Man has no more right to direct
woman than woman has to direct
man; let each work out his or her
own salvation.
. He is tyrant in embryo who eX-
poets woman to surrender her in
diViduality after marriage.
Men are not entitled to more
rights than women, for men are not
more important than women; both
are serViceable in their respective
spheres.
Indorsing 1.-The indissolubility of
marriage is not meritorious, for no ,
worth is attached to the union that
arrests the progress of individuality
in male or female.
The humiliation of woman, though
sanctif1ed by tradition, is a calamity,
and those are poor specimens of
manhood who disfaVor her exemp-
ton from subsection.
Wives have no more right to sac
riice themselves to false husbands
than husbands have to sacrifice
themselves to false wives.
Enter not the married state before
weighing the responsibilities at
tached thereto. Truthseekers are
more qualified to perform the mar
rage ceremony than clergymen. Vol

THE FORUM.

. THE FORUM. - The Day Book
Forum is for people to pass their
opinions on various subjects. They
should pass them in a manner not
offensive, if they can, which some
times is difficult to do.
Some of us Forum writers are not
professionals and often make mis-
takes.
We find brilliant professional writ
ers in all papers and periodicals MAX
ing mistakes. mean that they write
on one side of a subject and consider
themselves right; others think not.
One side or the other must be right.
If we all agreed or found out what
was right and lived it, there would be
no cause for dispute.
Justice is to give all a chance to
live. No man has right to make
too much profit from another's work
and no man has a right to expect
more than he really earns. That
means that while one man must hire
another to do is work he must make
profit enough to run his business on
a fair basis.-Frank Smith.
