there are many we'll educated men and
women. Some of these have come to the
southern states to live as refugees, be-
cause they have become impoverished or
have failed to agree with some changing
administration. Their women are now
for the first time leaving their homes to
work in shops and Offices, and it is very
difficult for them. But they want to
progress; they are anxious to learn.
There is a great opportunity for the
women of this country to teach them
lesson in democracy, to guide them and
sympathize with them and set them an
example.
"They have been an easy prey to Ger
man propaganda. They have been made
to believe that the United States is sim
ply waiting for the chance to swallow
Mexico, to devour her wealth and de-
prive her of her freedom If the women
Of this country would make definite
effort to understand and intelligently
combat this propaganda--if they would
try to be warm and friendly toward Mex
lean women instead of holding aloof-it
would accomplish more than any other
one thing that could be done to promote
good feeling between the two nations
and to prove to Mexico how magnificent
the United States really Is"

But what a tragedy this will mean
for the thousands of little ones who are
now in private homes and who would, if

Surely in all our rush and worry of

What the "Y" Did
In Buenos Ayres

In 1906 the Y. w. C. A. established a
branch in Buenos Ayres. At that time
it was only for English speaking foreign
women there, chiefly teachers and COVER
nesses, who sorely needed a refuge where
they could find little of the freedom to
which they had been used at home. The
work was so successful that few years
later the wife of an Argentine physician,
Rogue Lanoid, conceived the idea of ex-
tending it among the native girls. So
in 1911 a request came for a Spanish
speaking secretary to go from the United
States.
Miss Elisa Cortez was the one chosen.
She found that for the first time native
Argentine girls were venturing into the
business world. They were taking posi-
tions as clerks, cashiers in banks and
railroad offices, stenographers and physi-
clans attendants. Moreover, the desire
for education had inspired them, and
families in the provinces, in Brazil and
in Chile, were sending, a little timidly
their daughters to study in Buenos Ayres.

headquarters in the land of Upside Down
we're inaugurated along the same lines
that prevail here. There was a travel
lers' aid, a lunchroom, an employment
department, a boarding home, monthly
social lectures, Sunday meetings for any
and all denominations. At first the work
was restricted to the girls themselves;
and then the triumph Of triumphs was
achieved in that land Of chaperons. when
joint social meetings with the Y. NJ. c. A.
were effected, and nobody was Mortified!

"that the ~ was the only place in the

"Woman's Position"
In Argentina

The writer has spent many months in
IA rgentina-thc country of Upside Down,
where the north wind is hot and the
south wind cold, where summer comes
in December and winter in July The
"postion" of women then did not exist
and it was not SO many years ago;
they had no position as members of the
human race. 1t seemed as if being a
woman were something rather ridiculous.
A woman Of any age never went
out on foot, and never without a chape-
ron, or, for escort, either her husband or
her father. 1t was a subject for debate
whether on the narrow streets q young
married woman, accompanied, say, by
both her mother-in-law and an aunt,
should walk behind the two older ladies
AS a mark of Difference, or in front of
them So that they might watch her. Yet
she was brought up to expect that
groups of young gallants who made a
practice of standing on street corners
should call out compliments to her as
she passed-remark upon her beauty,
her lovely eyes, her figure or her clothes
and, far from considering it an insult
to be thus addressed, she felt sighted
if no one spoke to her. Of course, she
never made any response, nor even
raised her eyes
Let her do one Of these things-let her
do anything out Of the ordinary-and
she was literally lost.
A woman few years ago appeared
on Gale Florida, the fashionable, mar
row street of Buenos Ayres, with it's
restaurants, tea-rooms, jewelry and
clothing shops, where all but foot traffic
is suspended from to T. in order to let
the brilliantly dressed throng swarm
from curb to curb. She wore clothes
that seemed foreign in some way to the
prevailing Argentine fashion-so the
mob that gathered, jeering, at her
frightened heels considered her fair prey
for it's sense of humor And it's sense
Of humor expressed itself in pinching
her as she hurried on, trying to find
some shelter.
Her dress had been torn to shreds by
the time shopkeeper awoke to her real
danger and let her into his shop, which
had been closed for the day, and dropped
the heavy iron shutter behind her to
keep out the mob

H0iC North America
Sets the Pace of
Progress
By MARIE DE MONTALVO
Editor The Neac Cstixen's Page

n yEW ZEALAND began it--this
Vi business of care Women Peo-
- ple?"--f you except Pompeii,
where there was said to be an in
tensive campaign under way in favor
Of woman suffrage when Vesuvius put
AT end to politics.
It is said that the same idea was first
introduced in New Zealand in 1S43. It
was not acted upon until the word
male" was omitted from bill giving
the power to elect district school commit
tees in 1872. Full suffrage was granted
to women there in 1898. Australia fol-
lowed with full suffrage in 1908, England
in 1918. Canada in 1918.
Canada, moreover, passed the measure
quietly-it was a government bill-and
with no such "niggardy provision" as
that in England, where men vote on
coming of age and women not until they
are thirty. 1t is, in fact, more COM
prehensive reform than our own pro-
posed Federal amendment and takes ef-
feet more promptly.
This brings it to our own shores. We
may follow Canada's example very
shortly with the passing of the bill by
our Legislature in Washington. And
that will settle the woman problem
to certain extent in North America
But what of the position, social. economic
and political, of all the other American
women in the Western hemisphere? We
tried to find out a little while ago by
writing to consuls from all the Latin
American republics. Some of them an

Dear Mr.. and Mrs. Shaffer:
have been in the hospital for two
weeks. and have just learned through
Hector Garand of the loss of Wal
ter. How, may l tell you of my sor-
row? Walter and l have been to-
gether great deal and / have learn
ed to care greatly for him.
Last Thursday morning he with
eight others. went out on a patrol,
led by Garand, who has thirteen
Boches. Walter had made previous
arrangements with Garand that he
would attack a Boche balloon If he
had the opportunity.
North of Rheims in the region OF
Craonne. he saw one and dove at il
TO attack it, The Germans opened
fire from the ground, Il severe fire,
and Garand says that Walter con-
tinued on down to the ground and
landed seemingly normally They
all believe that perhaps a piece OF
shell hit the motor of Walters ma
chine, causing him to land. From
what they saw they believe he is
safe and sound but a prisoner.
Tomorrow l shall personally go to
the Red Cross and make every in
quiry and have them do everything
they can towards locating him
Members of the escadrille have drop
ped notes over the lines, asking for
information and soon, l am hoping
we shall have good news for you
That he had the good will of all
people he met, that he was well
liked for his personality, his char
acter, for there never was a more
conscientious boy than Walter, nor a
better one, may prove to be for you
as it is for me, a truly comforting
thought. He was mighty fine pilot
and whatever happened. was beyond
his control.

Washington. oct. 81. - President
Wilson'S appeal TO the voters of the
country to return a Democratic Con-
gress has precipitated national po-
litical contest which has eclipsed even
the public interest in the war.
Never before in the history of the
country has an off year Congressional
contest excited so much feeling. The
interest rivals that which precedes
the settlement or a Presidential con-
test and extends from coast TO coast.
Just as President Wilson estab-
lished a precedent in appealing for
