no DEMAND FOR SUFFRAGE
or France Are Acknowledged
Rulers OF Community.

On the northern coast of France the
peasant women are more remark Die
than the men, and they are Tar better
educated.
1t is they who drag the boats in ana
out of the little harbors, and who sell
the fish in the markets. They are
thus brought into contact with the peo-
pies and civilizations OF all countries,
and no class of women in Europe is
so emancipated
They are strong and robust, and
their outdoor life and masculine hab-
its-for they belong to the sea as
much as do their menfolk-harden
thier bodies, at the same time giving
them taste for all masculine pursuits
and pleasures.
They rarely quarrel with their hus-
bands; indeed, the latter would fare
badly did they attempt coercion or ILL
treatment in any shape or form, for
the women are taller than they are
and quite as strong; so the mere
men, of the French coast prefer to
keep their skins whole, and treat their
wives as Jolly good fellows" which
is exactly what they are.
They sing their songs and enjoy
their glass of cider with the best of
their menfolk

GAIN LIVELIHOOD FROM SEA
ters-Have a Brothe rhood That
Is Worth Emulating.

Besides sailing to the uttermost
parts of the earth in pursuit of cod.
herring and mackerel, the French do
large trade with the fish in their own
waters
OF these there is a great number,
including two sorts of skate, mackerel,
soies, turbot, brill, place, founders,
Dream and oysters.
There are three classes of fisherfolk
in northern France. Some of the men
have their own boats. and they hire
what assistance they require, buy their
own nets, find their own bait. etc.
others hire boat between them and
each man gets so much, while the rest
goes to the owner; the third class are
too poor to do anything but sell their
services.
The boats vary In size from five to
fifty tons and generally nine men form
a crew.
The brotherhood existing among
them extends beyond death. The
widow of one of their number has q
right to send out her nets with the
boat to which her husband belonged.
and her share of what is caught ia
scrupulously handed over to her.

Fighting in Open Beet Fields

have grown their crops as usual this
summer and have evacuated their
homes only when the battle front
neared. Looking toward Bapaume

country, with the villages largely in
tact appears almost as normal us that
