VOTES FOR WOMEN!

An article recently appeared in a
| Wilmington paper, signed by the
! President of the AntiSuffrage SOcie-
| ty. Let me give a resume of the ar
guments advanced.
l. To force women into partisan
politics is to divert women from non
partisan service. In just what way
pray? Let us take. for instance. the
case of Mrs Josiah Evans Cowles,
President of the Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs. and other members of
the Women's Clubs who reside in Cal
ifOrnia. Mrs. COwles own home state.
Has the fact that these women are
voters, detracted from their value as
citizens? If so. why was Mrs. COwles
chosen, of all women in this country?
Take Wyoming, where women have
voted since 1863. If Wyoming women
have been diverted from nOn-partisan
service, read this-"The Wyoming
Clubs are very mach interested in the
new Industrial School for boys and a
number have sent books and pictures

this score, ask the women of the west
who have really had the experience.

C. ARMEL NUTTER WINS An HONOR

C. Armel Nutter. of 216 W. From
ST., North Milford, has just receives
the news of his promotion to Maste
Salesman in the Vocational Organiza
ton known as the League of Curti
Statesmen.
This vocational league embodies
plan for vocational guidance ant
training, which has attracted the at
tentiOn of educators and prOgressiv,
business men throughout the country
The League is composed of the mos
efficient boys engaged in the selling
Of the periodicals issued by the Cur
tbs Publishing Company, Philadelphia
and is a part of the great nationwide
movement which is striving to
Keep the boy in school longer; tC
educate him in the particular subjects
which will help him most when he
leaves school; and to help him start
in the kind of work for which he is
best fitted.
The League of CARTS Statesmen is
the concrete application of this plan
Any school boy is eligible to qualify
for membership in the League. After
I he becomes a member he may. in the
course of time, after fulfilling certain
requirements advances 20 Master Sales

arm When he has finished his school
ug the Curtis Publishing Company
guarantees to secure for him, upon
eQpost, a salaried position with a re
pltable concern in or near his home
t0wn-a position which, from the Coo
panys knowledge of his ability and
inclination, offers him an opportunity
to develop and advance
It will be good news to the many
friends of this boy to learn that in
earning his promotion he has made
a record for initiative and for success
full salesmanship. One of the qualifi-
cations for his new honor is that his
school work in all studies has been
exceedingly satisfactory.
There are two adult male statesmen
for every male bOOkkeeper in the
country. Statesmen enjoy higher sal
aries than bookkeepers. Every com
mercial high school teaches book
keeping. yet almost none Of them
teach craftsmanship.
Speaking recently Of the League of
Curtis Statesmen Charles W Elliott,
former president of Harvard, said:

of boys 1t is a first-Tate example OF
vocational training, given by a com
mercial company during the period OF
school life.
ut has kept thousands of boys in
school longer than they would other
wise have stayed there; it has taught
them thrift and accurate accounting

many thousands of boys a knowledge !
of the art of selling journals which |
easily becomes available in many 9TH |
er businesses; it places many boys in |
good situations on well-grounded re- |
concentrations. when. being fit for |
larger service, they leave the employ |
of the Curtis Publishing Company. |

Cd has thus been of great service not |

also to employers in a large variety 4
