'I called Immediately on Mrs.
Smith, whom I found quite as much
excited as her husband and who,
much to my amusement, was running
baby ribbon through a great pile OF
lingerie. She seemed to feel called
upon to treat me very much like an
upper. servant whose duties were to
fetch and carry for her as well as to
do her husbands secretarial work.
Then I went back to my little room
and sat down at Alnra's typewT1t-
err Paula resumed her story.
"In the year that had elapsed since
I had begun to earn my living l had
often amused myself with the type
writers of my friends In fact, at one
time I tried to write a play and once
had rented a typewriter to put 1t IN
shape. I had gotten so 1 could write
a very good looking page If did 1t
slowly. I think I should never have
dared to accept the position of sec
rotary to Congressman. Smith II Alma
had not said to me:
"'Of course you can do it. 1 know
Frank Smith well and it takes an
hour for him to dictate a letter. If
YOU are smart you will make him
think the thing to do is to dictate
right to the machine, or get him to
use a dictagraph. have never known
him since his graduation from col
Iege except when a clever woman
could twist him around her little
finger. I don't mean that he is any
more firtatious than any other man,
but he just can't say mo" to wom-
an if she asks him right.
""You see, Paula, said Alma, as
much as the feminists talk about get
ting what they want on its merits,
YOU cannot eliminate the sex equa-
ton. A man will give you what you
ask for twice as quickly because you
are a woman and say pretty
please" as he will if you demand it

personal way that every man loves
the woman to whom he has been
married ten years-if he doesn't hate
her before that time
You see, Margie, Alma Hunting
ton had had her experience, and al
though she was in some ways one
of the most simple and unsophisti-
Gated girls l had ever known, in 9TH
ers the greatest feminist in the world
could not be more certain Of the
methods of a man with maid than
was this splendid little newspaper
woman Her favorite epigram was:
A man and woman may begin with
the discussion of the philosophy of
Bergson but they always end with
an agitation of their own emotions
And after five years Of newspaper
work, where she had been thrown
with all sorts and conditions Of men
and wOmen-she still retained her
sweet disposition and sane outlook
on life.
81 did not realize at the time, but l
have come to the conclusion since
that, more than any other woman,
Alma influenced my life and influ-
enced it for good. She did not side
step one sordid fact; she did not I'M
derestimate one single temptation,
and all the while she kept it before
her that all her experiences, all her
emotions, all her conclusions were
only a part of her characters growth
and the great life adventure.
Whenever l think of Alma am
very likely to talk too much about
her, for 1 not only admire her, but 1
love her perhaps more than any other
living woman.
"As I sat there that day in Wash
ington, writing Now is the time for
all good men to come to the aid Of
their party over and over again,
there was a. hurried knock at the
door, and 1 heard Jef's voice saying:
