not Il difficult matter to change the feminine
waist line, however; indeed, some one once
declared IL 10 be "a movable feast that
might be found anywhere from the knees
almost to the arm pits. Anyhow the women
thus disguised secured places In the PhyN
or voting place and proceeded TO vote them
selves into office The only criterion of citi-
zenship at Athens was the power TO pro.
nouncc Greek after the Attic fashion. Ac-
cordingly the women having secured most
OF the places In the popular assembly place
proceeded 10 vote the Government into the
hands Of the women. The Gencralissimo of
the State is one PraXagora, the leader Of the
movement who had told her sister Atheniau
women at a, midnight meeting held for the
purpose Of rehearsng their program the
night before the election, all the reasons
there were why the Government should pass
into the hands OF the feminine portion Of
the community.
She insists that their long practice in the
management of the home fits them par
ticularly TO take up similar obligations as re-
CARDS the State Their well-kuown conserva-
tism Is another trait in their favor. "They
roast and boil after the good old fashion;
they make their cheese cakes by the old
recipes; they keep private bottle like their
mothers they pledge their husbands as they
always did: and 50 Athens can be assured
that under the government Of women there
shall be no novelties. none Of tho revolutions
which the Romans centuries aF'erward
called res HDUdC. "new things Above all,
the ladies may be assured tnat the members

soldiers, their own sons. Whenever their
sons are summoned TO service they will take
care that they do not staTve and are not
neglected but have home comforts in their
oncampments Besides, those who stay at
homo shall be properly cared for. She tells
them in the words Of Collins's translation
no more high taxes, no more war
land for ways and IN ans
Trust us there is nothing CeveTer than a woman.
And as FOR diplomacy they'll bo hard indeed
The policy of the new Government under
Tar There Is TO be no more poverty, no
lawsuits, no gambling. No infOrmers. and no
more old maids. All the ugly women are to
have the first choice of husbands and the
untaken men will be very glad 10 have the
others.
Arstophanes's satire which was directed
particularly against Plato's ideal republic,
which had been published not long before and
which contained number of platonic ideas
with regard to the place of women, with
which Arstophanes did not agree, ends with
an Invitation to the public generally-that is,
the spoctators ut the theatre--to be sure to
come TO tho national banquet which is 10
initiate tho now and ideal order of things.
Aristophuncs's very interesting comment on
votes for women as voiced by one of the
Athenian citizens was that the Athenians
wa-e above and beyond all fond OF change,

not yet been tried by them. 10 wonderit had

UP FROM THE RANKS
Staff. Won Promotions by
Merit
Sn WILLIAM Il. ROBERTSON, X. c. V.

On; WILLIAM T. ROBERTSON, *. G. Y.
~ o., *, G, b., u. $. o., is the first "ranlicr"
or enlisted man TO rise 20 the dignity Of lieu
tenant general in the British army. Many
"rankers" have been coonels or subalterns.
and at least one, Sir Hector Macdonald, Of
unfortunate memory, attained the position Of
major general.
Lieutenant General RobeltsOn's career
has been like romance in its spectacular
episodes to the present climax, which finds
him, as chief Of the general staff, the target
for the vOlleys Of n hostile section Of the
London press
Politics, rather than iuelicioucy Oh his
part. his supporters and admirers declare, is
back Of the demands for his removal one
observer Is authority for the statement that
Sir William has made enemies in the army
and particularly In the nobility, by an eff
cheney brusque and taciturn. Some persons
have never forgiven his origin IL Is said. and
his rise from the ranks TO be chief Of staff.
Robertson never won hero's laurels as Il
commander and it has CALLED critics to have
a mere machine" like him in supreme charge
Of the War Office. lie has never In his career
held troop command on a major scale, but
has shown genius for organization. IL is
true, as his opponents allege, that he
is secretlve about tactics that go wrong.
His philosophy Is that Of the prac-
tical man who wastes no time on post-mor-
tens and makes every minute Of the new
day count. As a matter Of fact, he is a new
type in the British army, an eXemplar of
impersonal efficiency.
The general was born IN Lincolnshire In
1860. His family was middle class and he
received a fair education. His dream was To
be accepted as a cadet in one of England :
military schools, a dream which never came
true.
At last he despaired OF becoming an on
Ger through cadet channels, so he enlisted IA
a trooper in the Sixteenth Lancers and be-
gan his military career at the lowest ruhg
in the ladder.
He was twenty-nine, ten years later when
his dlliEent study Of tactics etc. won him
his second lieutenants commission.
After doing transport work he was pro-
, noted TO stan captain and ID. A. =. M. q. OF
tho Intelligence Branch at slmla. For touf
years nc worked hard at the provisioning ana
auartering Of men I'm India.
In 1895 he acted as intelligence officer
| TO the headquarters stan of the Chitral relief
force. Mentioned in dispatches and severely
wounded he got his y At the s' ii
the campaign, and was taken up by the Wan
| ONCE for It's own service.
In 1928 he won an appointment to the STAFF
/ college. From this point he rose rapidly Il
a commanding position in the army.
With the outbreak Of hostilities IN Soutl
| Africa he was very soon called upon to take
| up his duties as an active overseer of the dis.
