It's all right. brothers there's no hurry.
for the supply OF clinging vines really su-

The cave man is yet and probably always

but he's a more advanced being. Often he
doesn't even carry club.
CLINGING VINE AND CAVE MAN
''The majority of men will aways prefer
the clinglng vine type" Doctor Lichten-
berger told me. Just as the majority Of
women prefer the virle active men, There
are reasons for this-physiologic and bio
logical.
Men like to have soft, ciinging little
creature dependent upon them. By their
very evolution they have developed larger
egoism than women, while the latter by
nature, are passive.
THE moderr. woman however. is not the
parasite In this. she is superior to the old
type of cinging vine. The modern clnging
vine hasa potential economical independ
ence which makes her dependence very
sweet to her. That is, she is dependent be-
cause she wants to be. not because she has
to be for she knows that in these days she.
can always make a living and be lndepen-
dent If she wants to.
I might have quoted to Doctor Lichten-
berger Bernard Shaws Ann In Man and
Superman." a perfect example of the most
actively aggressive little parasitic cunglng
vine to he found anywhere, but didn't,
because the doctor is known as deep stu
dent of the various phases of life-he could
nrobably give Miss Rebecca West interest
ing ponterS about feminism and the presi-
dent of the anti-suffraglsts sapient advice
on how to cing-and when he voices his
ideas even champion interrupter Is
tempted to hold her peace.
"One OF my theories about modern con-
ditions," Doctor Lichtenberger continued,
''is that all this talk about equal pay for
equal service will never amount to anything
more than talk"
I was about to burst into indignant
speech when the sociologist raised warn
ing hand.

fective' way OF protesting that they could
nave chosen--a public uprising. The Gov
ernment got busy, food began TO show
itself. the railroads began TO move. These
women did exactly right.
II believe woman suffrage would have
helped here, though, OF course. the whole
problem is deeper and bigger than that of
mere voting. because men have the vote and
we haven't improved the food situation. But
believe that IL delegation of women
each OF whom was a voter. had gone to the
Mayor or the President and demanded
long ago that the Government take hold of
the railroads and move the food along and
take hold Of the food merchants and de-
mand that the food he released. they would
have received immediate attention and the
riots perhaps averted."
If | were asked TO classify Doctor Lichten-
berger l should call him an indlvidualist,
with decided socialistic tendencies He re-
fused to classify himself but when I called
him socialist he repudiated the term. In
fact. he said that he deplored the growth
of many of the modern 'socalistic no.
tions,' but. on the other hand he held
that n man could believe in Government
ownership" and that sort OF thing without
being n socialist.

Police Court Chronicle

Bill Hope feels little like his name after
his last escapade.
He managed to earn two dollars by
whitewashing cellars and doing odd jobs
for various residents of Frankford But
the money made an uncomfortable weight
In Bll's pocket He figured that 1t wasn't
doing him any good lying there, so he de-
cided to put the treasury into action.
Bill invested the entire amount in a
brand of liquid of national reputation and
then sampled 1t to his hearts content.
Hope was increased In the breast Of
Bill and he seemed TO get the idea that he
was endowed with wonderful power. Hope
started to direct trafic in the neighborhood
of Front and Clearfleld streets and soon
became involved in a number of argu.
ments. Several drivers demanded to know
Hopes authority for ordering them about
When they jumped to the street to make
further Investigations. Bill lost all patience
He argued with his fists until several vic
Tins found rest face downward In the street
A cop ended the battle and brought Hope
before Magistrate Wrigley.
Hope was unable to explain how he be-
came involved in the traffic argument but
while he was talking two empty pint TASKS
fell from his overcoat. When he stooped
down to pick them up two moro empty
TASKS fell from other pockets

ITO deserve equal pay women would have
TO share with men the burden of the sup
port of the home and family" Doctor Lich-
tenberger elaborated. This would mean
that our legislation would have to be
changed, making the wife just as respon-
sible legally as the husband for the support
of the home.
II am not at all opposed to a wife earn
ing an income independent OF her hus-
band, but / do think that during the period

do IT, But until this situation is brought
about, ! do not see how women can claim

The recent food riots, Doctor Lichten-
berger declared are an extremely signif-
cant sidelght on the development of the
modern woman.

URGED BY BOARD
Should Not Be Denied Increase,
Declares Superintendent
of Schools.

"The public school teachers should
not be excluded from the Federal EN-
ployes' salary increase" declared Err
nest l.. Thurston, Superintendent OF
Schools, at the meeting of the Boar
Of Education yesterday.
A request was received from the
central committee. composed OF rep
resentatives of all organized classes
of school employees, asking the board
to work for a wage increase. AFTER
a short discussion the expressed opin'
ion of the board members was that
school employees should be included
in any salary adv ance of Federal en-
ployes.
The Rev. John Van Schaick, jr.,
president of the Board of Education,
stated that the board should stand by
its estimates submitted in the District
bill, but at the same time expressed his
opinion that school employees were as
much in need of the increase as the
other Federal employees. The ways
and means committee of the board
was empowered TO act in any manner
that would benefit the cause.
The resolution as presented to the
Board by the central committee IL
intended for the Senate hearings

OUTLINES PLAN FOR
MILITARY TRAINING
Col. S. N. 'Foote Explains His
Proposal to Senate
Committee.

Col. S. NJ. Foote, artillery. instructor
at Fort. Monroe, outlined his uni
versal military training plan to the
Senate Military Committee yesterday.
|. Colonel Foote'S plan provides for
training camps in every Congress
sional district, boys on reaching the
age of seventeen to spend three
months a year In the camps. Certain
officers for the training camp would
be taken from the national guard and
be paid according to rank during
camp service.
"The magnitude of such an under
taking is startling" said Colonel
Foote. There are at present about
10000, 900 men and boys in the
United States available for such train
ing. About 100000 boys reach the
age of seventeen annually. OF this
number but 40 per cent would be

training such as I believe would be
necessary to 1T them for-active SER
vice."
Col. C. d. Rhodes, cavalry instructor
at Fort Riley, Kan, told the commit:
tee that "the present militia system
was inefficient in that 1t was undemo-
cratic"
Colonel Rhodes said the militia
should be gradually abolished and re-
placed by, a universal military train
ing system.
