the resultant flood of panaceas Of
fered by impractical enthusiasts,

nestle difficulties that beset the

permanent stay.

MY Dear Miss Roberts-Is there
any such thing for women ~ . So
ciety for mutual protection and as
sistance7 should very much like
to belong TO such an association,
and have heard that there are
some. but do not know how to find
out more In regard to the matter.

There are several societies formed
tor the benefit o. women. of which
the largest is SAID to be the Associa-
ton Of the Maccabees.
The idea of this association Is to
provide just the sort Of service for
which you are looking. II has a
number Of plans calculated to suit
all needs. You can buy protection
for any stated period. say up to
the age of so. OF for the whole OF
life. or for the last years of life.
You can arrange for all burial and
last illness benefits, and for sick
ness or disability during life.
There Is certain personal ele-
nent in a society of this sort that
IS lacking in the life insurance com
panies, but IL Il comes to plain ser
vice you can get pretty much any
sort OF service from a good life in
surance company, and you can in
sure for special purposes. just as
you can with an association like the
Maccabees.
Bit many women prefer that they
should De taken care of by COM
rades. as Ia the idea behind such

why Mrs. Richards should not be re-

The board was properly shocked
at the temerity Of the little rascal,
and it went to the mat with him
with the best legal talent money
could buy.
But Circuit Judge Morrow held
that civil service employee could
not be discharged until charges had
been preferred and proved, and that
such employee had a right to a hear

nesses.
The board couldn't believe it's ears.
So it appealed to the supreme court.
The supreme court went even fur

him and added that marriage did not
