WOMEN IN OFFICE.

Half the county offices in Kansas
are now filled by women. They hole
every kind of Office available with the
single exception of county commits
sioner More than two-thirds of the
county school superintendent are
women. A third of the county treas
urers are women.
This is due in part TO the fact tina
SO many Kansas men were in wal
service somewhere that their wives
and sisters had to take their places In
local government positions. But Kan
sas women have held Offices for many
years before this war emergency
They have performed their work sat
isiactorily Perhaps that is the real
reason for their present official prom

Addison says, what an absurd thing
II Is to pass all over the valuable parts
of Il man and fix our attention on his
infrmities - But that seems to be the
habit. About the first thing we try to
find in a man is his faults. They are
apt to transcend his virtues. even il
the virtues are mountain high. It
Is deplorable habit, for 1t not only
does great injustice to the person criti.
cized, but it hurts the critic himself.
1t lowers his views Of life and confirms
the habit of seeing the worst side Of
human experience and losing sight OF
the bright side. No man can he a
moral man, or religious man of any
faith, who Is constantly searching for
the faults of people. The first duty n
man owes to his neighbor Is to look
for the bright side and he will then
find, In most cases. that the dark side
is much smaller than he suspected.
The thing to attack is the sin, for we
Will discover that that is greater than
the man who Is guilty Of it.-Oho
