A Cartoon That Should Not
Have Been Published
If the Editor of This Newspaper Had Looked at 1t Carefully
Before Instead of AFTER Publishing, It Would
Not Have Been Printed in The Times.

This refers to cartoon by Raemaekers, Justly giory
ing the Presidents admirable reply to the Pope comparing
that message with the Washington Monument.
Unfortunately, Mr.. Raemaekers marred his work most
seriously by representing the Pope for whom millions OF
Americans feel deepest reverence small inconspcuous
figure in the cartoon We do not believe that Mr. Rae
maekers could been guilty Of Intentional lack OF respect
for great and revered parsonage but his drawing was
none the less offensive to many sincerely religious people,
it did not represent the facts and should not have been
published It wouldn't have been published had not the
offensive detail been small to escape attention.
The Popes attitude naturally and inevitably has been
that peacemakr from the wars beginning and the Pre
dent himself in his reply to the Pope paid to his holiness
Just tribute that is echoed throughout the world The Pre
dent wrote every heart that has not been blinded and
hardened by this terrible must be touched by this
ing appeal of his holiness the Pope must feel the dignity
and force Of the humane and generous motives which
prompted and must ferventy wish that might take
the path of peace he so persuasively points out"

S. Wilson Woodrow Writes Its Woman's Worl

free from the perplexities that con-
front the modern woman. She had
definite place In the economic
program. Her duties were obvious
ones, and by tradition and training
she was fitted to cope with them
But owing to many inventions it
was quite a different world in
which Great-Granddaughter OPEN
ed her eyes-a changing world and
a world of change, not only In the
customs Of ages, but In the ideas.
Her first thought was, I can play
at last. / don't have to card wool
and spin and cook and sew and
look after the ways of my house
hold every minute. / have plenty
Of time. to read novels and think
about clothes and go to clubs and
department stores and matinees.
"And presently she awoke to
find that she was immeasurably
bored. Then, being Gfoat-Grand-
mothers great-granddaughter and
not a slug, with the same vital i'm
pulse to live as thoroughly and ably
in her era as Great-Grandmother
had in hers, she looked about her
and yearned to take her share In
the cleaning-up Of this big, untidy
house Of the world.
Her maternal heart aehed at
the thought Of unnecessary condi-
tions responsible for poverty, sick
ness, and suffering. Great-Grand-
mothers existing prototypes insist
upon taking their part in the
worlds housecleaning, and they
know that the only way this can
effectually be done is by the ballot.
"We are going t ocreate a fu-
ture which will not be q mans
world nor a woman's world, but q
man and woman's world.
It will be a beautiful world, full
of congenial work, delightful play,
love and laughter and the shouts
Of happy, healthy, little children
To help create it, we must have
the ballot.
The Washington times., 1917-09-15

q BE was q stunning creature.
- Her husband had recently
- made . lot Of money, and
she was evidently investing q
large amount Of it In good clothes.
The successful novelist to whom
l was talking looked at her re-
hectively.
There's an old vaudeville song
that jingles in my memory" he
said, Things Are Coming Pretty
Soft for You, Louise There goes
the typical heroine of the feni-
nine-bought novel. She's the kind
we have to write about, or 60
broke. OF course, she's a femme
incomprise. AS / look at her /
realize more than ever that this is
Q woman's world"
"It's usually put the other way,
l demurred. Most women call it
q mans world"
Absurd" he seoffed. "It's for
women the great department
stores are run, and also the thou
sands Of lesser shops which deal
in q single speciality. About the
only emporium left where man
reigns supreme is the saloon, and
even that usually has its family
entrance and back room for the
accommodation Of feminine thirst.
"And as for the tobacconists
nowadays-well, not only the pub
lie restaurants, but the ash trays
and the atmosphere Of so many
boudoirs tell their own story. For
the exclusive custom of men alone,
New York city would be well sup
piled with q row Of modest shops
extending over a few blocks.
"Nor is it only in commerce that
woman is considered" he went on.
"For her the great hotels and res
taurants strive to outdo each other
. in gorgeousness and luxury. Man,
il left to himself, would still be
living in a brush wood shack and

to hear you"
Well, compare Louise with her
great-grandmother," he pounded
away. She spun and carded and
wove and knit for an entire family.
She washed and swept and mended
and busted and breved and baked.
Then II she found time hanging
heavily on her hands, she helped
In the fields or aided in repelling
an Indian attack.
"Great-Grandmother did not suf-
fer from nervous prostration,
neither did she sit around reciting
the interm;nRble details of her
latest surgical operation. No;
Great-Grandmother, II she surviv-
ed sun-stroke, or the tomahawk,
generally succumbed to one Of the
old-fashioned diseases-thers were
only three or four recognized all
ments at that time-at the hale
age Of eighty or ninety"
Again he shook his head mourn
fully. Beside this vigorous, old
lady, Louise seems pretty fiabby
dber."
He paused for breath, and took
advantage of my opportunity.
Your indictment is not framed
against Great-Grandmother's des-
cendants," l said; but against the
descendants Of Great-Grandmoth-
er's shiftless, lazy sisters.

tired Of Great-Grandmother. 1
think 1t is about time that her care
fully retouched ghost is decently
laid. She is always being dragged
on the stage to play the role of
silent witness to the sins and i'm
perfections Of the women Of today.
I'm not belittling her in the least
when l say this. She was a great
and sturdy figure. She belonged to
the splendid minority Of her era.
But the women Of today also have
their minority. And it's the min
ority that sways the future.

"The whole craft of inventors

housekeeping of today. with its

A. j. EarIing- Coal and Labor
Economist
1t Is Pleasure to Pay Compliment, to Real Railroad
Man and His Associates.

Sometimes you read in this newspaper criticism Of rail
road management The railroad to the nation is what veins
and arteries are "a is old his arteries
nation as we learned in this war; feeble its
railroads.
For pleasant change read tribute to A. J. Earring
for many years the hardwong President Of the Chicago
Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad and about the
Craftsmanship Of the board controlling that big system.
This is the story: Mr. Earring and his associates,
Percy Rockefeller John D. Ryan and Others had sufficient
imagination and courage to chain the waterfalls Of the
Rocky mountains and put them to work.
ALI other railroads and pushing and pulling
their trains the Rocky mountains with steam power
generated by coal
Thousands Of men must work in the mines exhausting
the coal supply carry these trains the Rocky
tans. Thousands Of that might be usefuly
pyed must haul coal long distances to furnish the pr
tive engines that haul the Rockies the trains
of all railroads except the st. Paul
As the trains slowly and painfully two or three
engines gunting in 'front.' and two three gruntg
behind waterfalls going to waste power that would carry
all these trains the Continent and leave coal unds
turbed in the oundee thousands Of and thousands
Of cars for other purposes.
As you cross the Continent and climb swiftly and
smoothly the Rockies drawn by electric power on the
st. Paul railroad, you actually travel moved by sunlight
wind, clouds, rainfall, and waterfall.
The suns light draws water from the ocean and forms
clouds The wind blows these clouds the great mountains
There they fall in rain snow creating the cataracts Of the
Rockies, with their millions Of horse power.
The vision and financial courage Of Earling, Percy
Rockefeller Ryan, and others harnessed these waterfalls
using natural power to coal and labor in mines
Most marvellous Of all the heavy freight train drawn
up the mountains by the power Of electricity Is itself
CREATOR OF ELECTRICITY as 1t goes down the other
side This miracle of economy is accompshed-as the
train draws electric power to take it UP the hill so going
DOWN the hill it creates electric power and sends it back
into the wire from which few moments before had been
drawing electric force.
We suggest to the Government which breaches econ
omy that it might be well to adopt this resolution:
Inasmuch the Chicago Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail
road carries freight and passengers the Rocky noun
tans without of coal great economy of labor freeing
from the mines using in carrying coal the Gov
ernment Of the United States win ship all freight all troops
