1.-THE twentieth century man is liv-

Rose Pastor Stokes, wife Of w. G.
Phelps Stokes, millionaire, told Bal
timore audience a few days ago. THE
cook stove and other feudalistic insti-
buttons have kept woman back she
said.
The first sentence Is clever. but
might we not say just as truthfully,
remembering the millions Of dead men
on Europe's battlefields, that the TWEEN
tieth century woman is living with a
fifteenth century man?
Or why not balance the cook stove
against war munitions and permit man
and woman a chronological equality?
But even this Is not quite fair to the
cook stove which is constructive
agent of civilization while shrapnel is
most valuable as it is most destruc-
tive. Democracy. or any any other hu-
man ideal, might have been attained
without its use.
Many women are always waiting TO
find new cases for discomfort. Thous-
ands are greedy of excuses to shirk
responsibilities which are peculiarly
feminine.
They devour advice like this: so
cialize all activities which supply the
necessaries of life such as houses,

New York, Jan. 15.-Germany has

ed from the necessity of knowing any
thing at all. 1t would permit her to
slump comfortably into permanent
parasitism. and it would still further
enslave man as "a good provider."
Home making, according to the fin
est modern conception, is great art.
1t demands feminine intelligence and
training. There is no great and no
small, no better and no worse in any
service which is essential to the we'll
being Of the race.
And perhaps woman wouldn't be in
such haste to upset the cook stove ii
she realized that it is a detail Of the
best economic movement, and a part
of all social Improvement. One of
mans first steps away from savagery
was the cooking of food. This step
was taken thousands of years ago, but
in all Of the centuries since. woman
has not learned how to cook to the
best advantage. 1t would seem wo.
mans part in twentieth century wis.

but to bring it up to date. But no
wife will try to do this if she is con.
WINGED that the cook stove keeps her
500 years behind her husband.
