DOGS ARE DEMOCRATIC
They Share With Small Boys Entir,
Freedom From Snobbishness. --

With the real boy dog is very
much at home and entirely at its
ease Perhaps it is happiest with a
crowd of boys at their lay or start
ing off on a holiday tramp. That
man must, indeed, be a crouch
who has not many times envied both
boys and dog. His envy is sharpen
ed by the reflection that the dog
knows and understands the boys bet
ter than he himself could hope to do.
The dog must be bit of a tramp,
perhaps even rowdy, taking joy in
the rough and tumble of life. For
tunately few dogs are the worse for
their breeding or capable of being
spoiled by education. They are new
er snobs. 1t has often been observed
and here is a point for the consid-
Grafton of the students of the canine
nature and social order-that dogs
seem to prefer what is worn and
shabby to the spick and span. 1t is
the same with boys, who have a nat
ural repugnance to anything in the
way of furniture and carpets that is
too fine to be used. There is no bet
ter teacher of democracy than the
dog. If he has but half chance.
And boys are apt pupils.-tIndian-
apolis News.

GIVE WOMEN THE
VOTE NOW THE CRY
Both Lloyd George and
Former Premier Urge
Equal Suffrage.
ENTITLED TOvOTE IN COMMONS
War Could Not Be Carried On
Without the Women
Says Asquith.
EMITTED TOvOTE IN COMMONS

London.-Premier Lloyd George
George made a declaration in the
House of Commons in favor of wom-
an suffrage.
The Premier said he welcomed
the recommendation in favor of wo-
man suffrage which was made in the
program for electoral reform moved
by former Premier Asquith.
The other reform measures also
were approved by the Premier, who
said that in the opinion of the gov
eminent it would be national
waste If the results of the conference
at which the reforms were outlined
should be thrown away.
He favored generous extension
of the electoral franchise by reduc-
ing to three months the period for
qualifying for voting, and by as,
Stunning the qualification of every
soldier and sailor.
Former Premier Asquith said the
House would not be unprepared to
hear that he and other members no
longer regarded from the standpoint
they occupied before the war. Mr..
Asquith made this statement in
moving the adoption of plan for
electoral reform.
Mr.. Asquith said his opposition to
woman suffrage always had been
based solely on considerations of
public expediency. The women had
now worked out their own salvation.
The war could not be carried on
without them. What moved him
especially he added, was the problem
of reconstruction after the war. He
considered 1t to be neither just NOT
expedient to withhold from women
the power or the right to make their
voices heard directly.
The fact that for three years there
had been no recurrence of the ode
testable campaign which had disfig-
ured our public life," said Mr.. AS
quith, would make it impossible
for any one to say that in changing
their position in regard TO suffrage
he and his associates had yielded to
force what they had refused to yield
to argument. With the exception
of the actual bearing of arms in the
field, there was hardly service
which had contributed to mainten-
arce of the cause of the allies in
which women had not been as active
and efficient as men.
Woman's Work.
wherever one turned might be
seen women who. without detriment
to the prerogati~es of their sex, were
performing work which three years
ago would have been regarded as
falling exclusively within the pro-
vince of men. After the war ques-
lions would arise with Regard to
women's labor functions and activi-
ties in which the women must have
a voice."
Mr.. Asquith also supported
strongly The other proposals for cleo
toral reform, and expressed the opin-
ion that the recommendation that
all elections SHOULD take place on
one day dealt with one Of the great
est reforms which could be intro
duced. He understood that the life
of the Parliament would be extend
ed further until the end Of Novem-
Der, and hoped that, a new register
on the lines of the reforms suggest
Cd would be ready. should an cleo
ton be necessary at that time.
