TO THE OLD WOMAN
AND The NEW WOMAN

Greeting. The best kind of
men, the men who count for
most in the world, the men
who have "done things, al
most without exception have
been inspired by women. Dante
was inspired by Beatrice
whom he saw only once. Soc
rates was inspired by a lady
of whom he saw and heard too
much. Henry VIII Of England
made history at the instigation
of number of ladies. Shelley
wrote some Of his best work
under the influence of Mary
!. Wolstanecraft ft-before she be-
came his wife. But these
women never did anything.
They stood on pedestals and
radiated inspiration.
Times have changed, and ap-
parently women have changed.
[ do not know today of a single
woman Of my acquaintance, nor
do | read Of one in contempo-
rary history, who is willing to
be a silent partner in the bus
mess of a mans life, whether
that business be running a
kingdom, writing poetry, think
ing great thoughts, or running
a business.
The influence which women
now exert and the inspiration
which they offer to the male of
the species comes from their
leadership in human activities.
Those of us who are inter-
ested in the raising of the Lib
erty Loan in this section glad
ly accept the new order of
things and call upon the new
order of women to inspire and
influence the men of the dis
trict by their actions and their
example rather than ky any at
tempt to stand on a pedestal
and let somebody else do the
work.
Woman today is claiming
equal rights with man, and
cannot expect to enjoy these
unless she is willing to take
her share of the responsibilities
which rights and privileges al
ways carry with them. The
woman who believes in the
equal civic right of the sexes
is bound to take at least as ac-
tive a part in the war as do
the men. She can do no less
unless she wishes to violate
her own creed.
Let no one suppose for one
moment that the writer of
these lines imagines that the
modern woman is less ap-
proachable on the grounds of
her womanhood and her moth
erhood than the old fashioned
woman who was content to
knit socks, wash the children,
and inspire her husband; but
it is permissible to point out
that the newer type of woman
should help in the Liberty
Loan Movement because she is
a woman, wife and a mother,
and because in addition to all
these things she is bound alb
solutely by the creed of the
new womanhood to vie with
men for supremacy in the
realm of initiative and action.
It seems not unlikely that
the women of the Eleventh
Federal Reserve District will
be the determining factor in
campaign work during the
Third Liberty Loan Campaign,
and these remarks are address,
ed to the women Of the District
in the hope that they will take
in this important work the po-
sition which they have claimed
as their own; namely, that of
cornrade. co-worker, even lead
er, in all matters in which both
men and women are jointly
concerned for the national
good.

II Twill OHOE-
TO The NATION
Nature has implanted in ev-
cry human being a sense Of
justice. This sense of natural
justice does not emanate from
any religion or creed; it is the
common possession Of human
ity. 1t constitutes the one
great distinguishing mark be-
tween man and the animal.
And the more highly educated,
the more highly refined a man
becomes, the stronger is his
sense of natural justice. We
condemn violation of natural
justice, not because we learn
from a man or a book that such
an action is worthy of condem-
nation. but because it violates
that conception of justice which
was born in us.
We do not have to be told
that it is wrong to torture
helpless child. We do not have
to be told that it is wrong to
go to farm house and burn it
to the ground, torture it's in
mates, and then throw them in
to the burning ruins of their
own home. Such things are
repugnant to our sense of nat
ural justice.
: It is this elementary attri-
butte of humanity, this quality
which distinguishes man from
the beast, which has been vio-
lated by Germany. Not only
has natural justice been violat-
ed, but it's violation defended
by emperors, preachers, philos-
ophers, teachers, and that mass
of individuals who sympathize
with the German cause.
While the most enlightened
teachers of humanity are tell
ing us that man by aspiration
and effort can raise himself to
partake of the Divine nature,
Germany is teaching and prac-
ticing the doctrine that man
should invert the theory and
take his place amongst the low
est types in the animal world.
They hold forth as the goal of
human ambition, after centur-
les of upward struggle, the fig
ure, type and mentality of a
beast rather than that of a God.
The animal which lives on the
flesh of others, whose right to
existence is based only upon it's
strength and it's ability to
crush us prey, would appear to
be the German ideal.
1t is largely because the Ger
man idea is so repugnant to us
as enlightened Americans, be-
cause their practices send a
shudder through every fibre of
our bodies and produce such
nausea in our souls, that we
are at war with Germany to-
day; and it is because of these
conditions that every decent,
honorable, thinking man must
pledge, if necessary, his for
tune, his life, his all, to eradi-
cate this unspeakable thing
which has fallen like curse
upon the sons of men.
Conceive, if you can, the con-
dition of this world if we al
lowed such doctrines to, prevail.
Property would go to the man
with the strongest arm and the
most unscrupulous mind. Lib
erty would die a shameful
death. Freedom would shrek
as Justice falls. Religion would
perish from the earth and a
false God-one of blood, iron
and beastiality, would be set
up for the worship of a cring-
ing, covering humanity.

There are Indifferent ones
who say that such things can
never happen in this country.
These people do not realize
that one of the penalties-the
greatest of all penalties-which
we should pay for defeat would
be the Germanization Of our
people. One of the terms of
our defeat would be the privi-
lege of Germany to trade, teach
and colonize freely in this land
of ours. One of the things
coveted most by the German
mind is the souls of men, for
when they have these they
have their bodies, their wealth
their all, and if during the
course of the next generation
the Germans could capture or
even deeply influence the soul
of America they would consider
that they had won the great
est victory in the history Of
their Nation.
AS citizens of an enlighten-
ed democracy we must fight by
every means in our power this
menace which would steal our
souls and those of our children.

Determining Age Of Planets.

A novel idea in estimating The phySi.
cal condition of planets was put forth
by NJ. Ncronnet before the Academic
dies Sciences ut Il recent meeting in
Paris. He based il upon y calculation
of The quantity Of water that rocks
such AS granite and pogphyry absorb
before becoming perfectly dry.
He said that on the moon all water
las been completely absorbed By slow
diffusion AS the rocks gradually cooled.
Venus is still surrounded by tlticli
layer of vapor, while no water has yet
been condensed ON the surface of Ncr-
curry, this planet being stjll in a "on-
dition in which its geological life has
not begun, and consequently M clouds
have yet formed on IT'S surface
NJ. Veronnet calculates that the
rocks Of our earth now contain ah-
s0rbed water which would cover the
earth to an average depth of about
t0O metres.
